New York, March 14.-The wage re.

ers, canvass of officials Of the inter-
ested union organizations indicated
here tonight.
The first official announcement of
the refusal OF the reductions Is ex-

While no official statements were

that the various organizations have
been holding conferences here during
the last few days and all have pract.-
cally agreed TO decline the wage cuts
and let the whole matter go to the
Railroad Labor Board at Chicago.
The workers take the position that
the figures and data submitted by the

for the reductions and cannot be sub
stantiated in hearing.
That the rairoad workers had
agreed on a policy to fight the reduc-
tions was indicated by their move in
advancing one week the date for the
second conference with the New York

MEDICINAL BEER
RULING IS LIKELY
TOBE SUSTAINED
New Attorney General Disposed
to Give it His o. X.
ALARM IN "DRY" CIRCLES
Endorsement of Palmer Dictum
Likely to Embarrass En-
forcement Agents
ALARM IN "DRY" CIRCLES

Washington, March ia thrill OF
Joy pulsed through all but the extra
dry and the very extra wet groups
here today with the receipt of a
strong intImation that Attorney
General Daugherty is minded to up
hold the beer ruling with which At
torney General Palmer bowed himself
out OF Office
Concidentally there was consterna
tion and anger in the red brick cita
del of the AntpSaloon League, which
nestles almost in the shadow of the
Capitol, as il to keep a wary eyeson
the enemy In Congress.
The "old stuff" with body" will be
obtainable by the bottle, the gallon
and the case IL the Palmer dictum
stands up and there is every indica,
tion now that it will stand up. It's
about the only relief anywhere in
sight for the vets so far as the new
Congress is concerned, but for this re
lief they give thanks to Gambr'nus
and the Volstead law itself for ap-
parently the Palmer decision to be up
held by Daugherty is based squarely
upon the law, and awyers say that is
we'll nigh impregnab'e.
The wild hopes of the vets and rosy
dreams of the whole liquor making,
liquor selling crowd are based on a
mis-conception of the makeup and
trend of the new Congress and there
is no more hope OF an amelioration
of the general severity of the Vol
stead act by the new Congress than
there was of faceabout by the old
cne.
Beer arrives again through some
thing like an accident, described as
providential by the vets and branded
as utterly devihsh by the drys, but
beer on physician's prescription, for
tonic use Is about the only liberaliza-
tion of prohibition that anybody IA
uliiar with the situation expects.
Approval OF the Palmer ruling that
physicians have a right to strengthen
patents by prescribing real beer viii
play hob as II Us and tangle up the
Federal authorities with the State Of
ficials in many States but that is as
far as liberalization is likely to go.
The new Congress VIII he dry-a
trifle more arid than the body which
went out OF existence on March 4. OF

Individually enough is known to In
dicate that old John Barleycorn need
not come rappng at their door. 1t is
funny situat on, for in the new
House OF Representatives, as in the

Of the eighteenth Amendment and
Vulstead act who would take drink
