Washington. Nov. s.-The remark
able run made by Senator A. B. Cum
minis against the combined labor and
radical farmer vote in Iowa is one
OF the chief topics of conversation in
the capital where Tuesdays land
slide victory has been the principal
topic Of discussion.
Instead Of victory at the polls
Tuesday, as claimed by Samuel Com
pers. head of the American t'edera-
ton of Labor, the view is taken here
that the labor leader was repudiated
as utterly by the working men as the
democratic ticket was by the ma jor-
ity Of voters.
While there is some fear that Com
pers' failure to deliver the labor vote
to Governor Cox and other demo-
cratic candidates will prove advan-
tageous to the radical element in or
ganized labor. the tremendous labor
vote given to the republican party,
which admittedly is conservative.
gives confidence that conservatives
will hold the upper hand at the next
labor convention.
While 1t Is not denied that the la
Dor vote helped to retire several
members of congress, there Is no
doubt that in the Sixty-seventh con-
gress the influence Of labor will not
be felt as strongly as heretofore.

STATE AUTO LICENSES
ARE REDUCED TODAY:
COSTS ONLY 81 NOW
Buyer, However, Will Get Less
in Proportion for Money
Than One Year Ago.

Minneapolis, Jan. Estate auto
mobile licenses that have been selling
in 1919 at $3.50 will cost only 81
on and after today, state officials
have announced. All licenses in the
current series, however, will expire
January /, 1921, so the licensee buy
ing this month will get less in pro-
portion for his money than did those
obtaining licenses last January.
Nearly all licenses sold next year
will carry tags numbered 100000 or
higher, those already sold for the
three-year license period numbering 6
259,039. Sales during 1913 brought
more than $1,O00,000 of revenue at
IS each and current year sales with
receipts from chauffeur licenses and
other items will greatly swell the
automobile department receipts, it
was said.
License totals year hence. it was
predicted, will give Minnesota an
automobile population of more than
100000.
