UNIONS URGED TO PRESS
FOR 2.75 p. C.. BEER BILL
John >SuiliUan Opposes Pend
ing Repeal Measure.

John Sullivan. vice-president OF the
State Federation OF Labor, yesterday
urged union delegates to attend the
hearing In Albany on Tuesday on the
proposed repeal of the State prohibition
enforcement law and OF the 2.75 per cent.
beer act. Mr.. Sullivan contended that the
Federal statutes are sufficient to pro-
vide for enforcement. and believes the
Mullan-Gage bill. repeating the 2.75 per
cent. beed measure, should be defeated
because the workingrtnen of the State
ought not to be deprived of beer. Mr..
Sullivan said the Governor and the leg
islators should work to obtain amend
ments to the volstead act to permit beer
again to come into the market. He
said
I'VE boast Of liberty, and yet our
Federal Government has already enact
ed a law and II Is now proposed that
the State of New York enact a law
which interferes most irritatingly and
repulsiveiy with the personal habits and
private rights of the people Labor Of
fers no objection to the reasonable en-
forcement of any law. but 1t does OBJ
ject to a proposal which only seeks
further oppression without pointing out
