Federation Of Labor chiefs,
led by President, Samuel, Gompers,
tack upon Attorney General Daugh-
erty's injunction against the railroad
shop crafts strikers. Following a
secret conferences, which lasted until
late last night, It was unofficially an
nounced at labor headquarters that it
had been almost definitely decided to
attempt through the courts, to have
the Dausherty act vacated.
Prepare Plans.
The labor leaders expect to have a
plan in shape to be submitted to tho
executive council of the American
Federation Of Labor when it con-
venes Saturday.
A score Of the labor chiefs were
already on the scene as today's pro-
gram got. under way. Besides the
ten presidents for whom reservations
had been made, several non members
of the American Federation of Labor
executive council arrived, in time to
participate.
It is reported several heads Of the
big five brotherhoods will be invited
before the American Federation Of
Labor with which they have no Of
ficial Amliation, to review the story of
their efforts, as mediators, to bring
about peace between the shop crafts
and rail executives. The question of
whether the formal sessions Of the
American Federation of Labor execu-
tives council shall begin here Satur-
day, as was scheduled, or be trans
ferred to Washington was still up in
the air today. The probability of
such move was considered strong.

Many Are Home Brewers
Under Prohibition, Miss
Carpenters Idea
SHE'S OUT FOR
BEERS AND WINE

NEW YORK, Aug. United Press
Five women in the United state.
drink now where one drank befor,
prohibition.
Even girls in their teens are do
ing IT,
Many women have turned home
brewers.
Thus Miss Alice Carpenter terseiy
stated today three OF the reasons
why she is so forcefully pushing her
work as director of the women's
committee of the association against
the prohibition amendment.
Women began to want booze
when II was made a forbidden
fruit" she said, according to the
perversity OF human nature. what
ever is forbidden is attractive. With
out free access to beer and Wines
the desire for stronger liquor has
been created among the conservative
class that never touched II before.
Prohibitions most potent'a and ef-
fectlve friend is the bootlegger. he
IS making the profit. We haven't
been able to enroll any Of his kind
In our organization"
Miss Carpenters theory is that the
only possible way to enforce pro-
hibition is to cut off all food capable |
Df fermentation. for so long as such |
exist in this country 4
here will be home brewing of .
liquors capable of making people
,s drunk az fhOSe sold over hars
Therefore she is launching a cam
algn.~among the women to bring
bout State regulation OF the sale

its first real blaze to combat when
the tent OF Corporal G. Boyer. OF Bat

Damage amounted 10 about $40.
The blaze was evidently caused by a

the furls of the tent
