 contended that the federal courts had by a process of gradual encroach- ments "wrested sovereignty from the people," and he cited the child labor tax law decision as typical of the conduct of the federal judiciary" Kisses greeted the senator's first mention of Chief Justice Taft, but these quickly changed to applause as LaFollette declared that Taft was re- pudiated by voters as a second term candidate for President.
 NO one will contend" said the speaker. that he could have been elected chief justice by vote of the people" Laughter greeted this re- mark as also the senator's statement that A chief justice of a British court was hanged for attempting to set aside an act of Parliament and once in the midst of tirade on court actions, delegate called out, Alta boy, Bob.' Five members of the supreme court, LaFollette said, "enact what shall be the law" and he added, i've are ruled by a judicial oligarchy"
 Cheer Speaker
 Applause came frequently during the speech and at the end the dele gates arose and cheered, continuing their demonstration for few minutes and then rsuming it again when Pres ident Samuel Gompers informed them that today was the sixty-seventh birthday anniversary of the Wis consin senator. 4 demonstration also was given the senator when he ar- rived at the convention hall and was introduced by Mir. Gompers as the tribune of the American people,"
 T. v. Mccullough of the Interna- tional Typographical Union indorsed the I.aFollette amendment as prac- ticable, asserting that "a great days work for the race the world around" had been accomplished by the con vention's consideration of the child labor problem. William Green of the United Mine Workers, told the con vention that the "reactionary wave that followed the war had turned" and he asserted his belief that a con stitutional amendment were possible. Results in the Indiana, Pennsylvania and Iowa primary elections were cited by Mir. Green as proof that the pen dulum of reactionary forces" was falling back, and he predicted that the North Dakota primary, June 23. would result in the defeat for ne- nomination of Senator McCumber, who was described as ''reactionary."
 There Is a progressive trend of public thought toward progress" de- clared MT. Green.
 Favorable action by Congress on an amendment to abolish child labor was predicted by Mrs. Kelley, who asserted a new zeal was found in Congress for such action on account of the double decision of the supreme court which above all people in the world ought to be the guardians of the children" Along with Mary V. Halas of the Woman's Trade Union league, another speaker. Mrs. Kelley declared that women voters would be a powerful influence toward adoption of the amendment.
 In concluding the program, MT. Gompers reserved until later in the convention his comment on what he said were "unwarranted decisions" of the courts, which he declared had in-

BIRMINGHAM AGE-HERAID. THURSDAY JUNE IS, 1922

Press tonight in reply to the letter of Chairman Lasker. given out in Wash ington today.
 The letter. dated today, from this city, says:
 T have read in today's St. Louis papers what purports to be a letter from you addressed to mo from Washington, D. C., under date of yes terday, the 18th inst. have no doubt the letter will reach me in due course, and am taking 1t for granted the newspapers have correctly reproduced the letter It refers to my letter of the 9th inst, addressed to the President, complain ing of violation of the Yolstead law by the United States shipping board, department of the United States government.
 Truth of Charge
 "Inasmuch as you again resort to the argument that our passenger ships cannot get business unless they do the thing which we charge Is be- ing unlawfu1ly done. I am bound to consider that you admit the truth of the charge.
 "On our behalf, admit the cor rectness of your charge that we are selfish in that we seek to again have the lawful right to manufacture it. If this Is selfishness let it so at that. We, in that respect at least, have the shipping board as an example. The shipping board desires to main tain the value as a going business ot the governments investment in mer- chant ships while we are selfish in hoping that our investment of many millions may be saved through a res- toration of the lawful right to make wholesome beer.
 You have misunderstood. and therefore assaiIed our motive in writing the President of the Sth inst, as we did. Our motive Is to re- mind the chief executive that the cumulative violations of the Vol stead law oh land and sea destroy the investment of law abiding man ufacturers who might otherwise pre- serve their investment and at the same time endeavor, as we are en- deavoring, to have restored by an amendment to the law the right to make beer.
 Not German sympatbixers
 Respecting your entirely irrele- want intimation that we are German sympathizers we remind you that all the facts and most of the falsehoods on that point were thoroughly dealt with and disposed of finally by the federal government during the war See the files
 You flatter me by your suggestion that I have so much power as to be able to affect, adversely, the Ameri- can and promote the German mer- chant marine. Whether this Is compliment or an accusation, It's ab- surdity must constitute its own an- swer.
 We seek no controversy with you or your board. We reiterate the charge that your board, without talk ing the trouble to get the law amended, violates for profit law which we have always observed and which we are trying to have amend ed because 1t cannot be enforced. You suggest that we do not come to the bar of public opinion with clean hands. It has cost us millions of dollars to keep them clean. and we remind you that we have in this correspondence repeated our demand tor a congressional Investigation.

 Observe Flag Day
 Combined with it's child labor pro- gram. the convention observed Flag Day, paying a rising tribute to the flag when one was presented to Mir Gompers by the central labor union of this city.
 America is more than a country. more than continent" said MT Gompers. accepting the flag. Tt is name which stands as the apothesis of all that is great, true, free, demo- cratic and humane.H
 Radical change in the form of the organized movement was proposed in a resolution introduced by E. H. Fitz- gerald and others representing the railway clerks at the convention. Declaring for amalgamation instead of federation of different unions in one industry, the resolution asserted that under present organization the unions "are divided against them selves and unable to make united re- sistance against the employers" ].
 Many Resolutions
 This resolution was only one of more than a hundred that flooded the convention at the start. Finan- cial aid for coal miners, textile work CTS and granite quarry workers who have been idle on account of disputes with employers for some time, was proposed by resolutions. For each of these unions, it was proposed that a single levy of one cent on all mem bers of the federation be collected for aiding their fights.
 Other resolutions proposed ex-
 clusiOn of all oriental immigra-
 tiOn, acceptance of Henry Ford's
 offer to lease the Muscle Shoals
 water power project from the
 government, opposition to the ku
 kIux kIRn, amnesty for political
 prisoners, repeal of the railroad
 transportation law and exten-
 sion of disarmament to include

 stabulary.
 The subject, recognition of Soviet Russia, was met with resolutions both pro and con, the latter askingg reaf- firmation of the federation's stand of the last two years.

WILL CONTINUE SALE OF LIQUOR ON U. S. VESSELS
(oontlnued from Page One

(Confinued from Page One night that there would be any move by an executive department in the matter. at the capitol, the Busch Lasker correspondence provoked con siderable discussion among prohibi- tion leaders, coming as 1t did on the heels of the attack yesterday on the board by Representative Gallivan. ceinocrat, Massachusetts, for permit ting the sale of liquor on American shlps,
 Neither the Gallivan speech nor publication of the Busch correspon- dence gave legislative leaders their first knowledge of liquor selling at sea, however. During recent months, many of them have received wine lists from American vessels mailed in all parts of the world. with face tious comments.
 Representative Upshaw, democrat. Georgia, was the first to announce publicly today that he would offer an amendment to the ship subsidy bill providing that no part of the federal subsidy fund should be used by steamship lines on whose st ips liquor is sold A leading western represen- tative had announced hat he would offer the same amendment. and friends of the bill said it seemed cer- tain the issue would have to be met unless the bill was reported by the rules committee with a. stipulation that none but merchant marina com mittee amendments would be con- sidered.
 Predict Defeat There was talk tonight that such an amendment would be put squarely before the committee probably tomor- row, although It's defeat there was predicted.
 One ardent prohibitionist went so far as to express the opinion that "by next summer a law will be enacted prohibiting the landing in the United States of foreign ships on which li- quor selling Is permitted"
 A year ago steamship officials ap- peared before House committees in ing that nothing In the Volstead act shall prevent the carrying or sale of liquor on passenger vessels of either American or foreign registry" There was the further provision, however, that ship stocks of liquor should be sealed and not sold within the three mile limit.
 After steamship officials had tes- tfied that they could not compete with foreign companies unless the law was modified, the bill was put away, prohibitionists asserting 1t would be overwhelmingly defeated if presented.
