him out of the car, presumably for a

Lord Asfor Confers With
Dry Leaders in Capital
Meets $50 CongresSn,en in the
Senate Office; Is Told Pro-
hibition Is Successful Here

FROM me I110une'S washington Bpreds
WASHINGTON, April 28.-Senators
and House members who have led the
war on John BarIeycorn to-day pre-
sentcd to Viscount Astor information
showing prohibition is success He
was overwhelmed with dry testimony
by lesslatorsa Of that persuasion and
if he does not go back to London con-
vinced of the success Of the Eighteenth
Amendment it will not be their fault.
Niscount Astor shook hands with
about $50 Senators and House members
at the office of Senator Sterling, of
South Dakota, one of the dry leaders.
Those invited to meet Viscount Astor
have all been active in behalf of the
prohibition movement Representative
Volstead, of Minnesota, whose name is
attached to the Volstead law, was one
of those present Mr.. Volstead, how
ever, gave no advice on how to make
England dry
The meeting in Senator Sterling's
Office was informal and Viscount Astor
talked freely with members about the
prohibition situation. He was told on
all hands that prohibition was working
we'll that the administrative officials
were getting better grip on the law,
and that the bootlegging business was
on the decline, while the sentiment of
the public was as strong for the dry
cause as ever.
Lord Astor made it plain he was
eager to get information from differ
ent sections of the country about the
workings of prohibition and prohibi-
tion sentiment.
Wayne B. Wheeler, general counsel
of the Anti-Saloon League, introduced
Lord Astor to the members. Later
Lord Astor went to the Driscoll Hotel
near by and met representatives OF
the different temperance societies IN
Washington.
Lord Astor said he was making q
study of a number of moral and social
questions, including prohibition, and
that he was interested i'll getting the
views and opinions of persons in Of
fetal and Congressional life.
"Prohibition as known in this coun-
try is not an issue in England" he
said
He is interested in restrictive legls-
lation OH the liquor traffic in the
United Kingdom, he said.

the workers in taking referendum
vote on a proposal placed before tho
men by the manufacturers at meet
ing at the Murray Hin Hotel.
The manufacturers, headed by FLOYD
l., Carlisle. had insisted at first that
the skilled employees accept 10 per
cent reduction in pay and straipht
time for overtime and Sundays The
common workers in the industry were
not to be given any agreement, but
were to have their wages nxcd accord
ing TO the prevailing rate in the vari
Gus localities.
1t is understood that the manutac-
turers yesterday modified their de-

The union leaders. j. r. Carey, Of

tion for their constituents, and asked
Leave to have the matter voted upon
By the 10000 men in the industry. The
armlstice was then agreed upon to give
the men IN the various mills an oppor-
tunity to cast their ballots The men
are to continue at work until May Is,

The union leaders and manufacturers
are 70 meet on the morning of May 10,
at the Murray Hill Hotel, when the

results Of the balloting.
The situation was summed up by one
OF the union officials as follows: az

women wore no masks or sheets, and
they did the JOB with neatness and dis

daylight of an April afternoon.
Prior is now staying close to his
room. and, it is believed. plans to
cave town as soon as he recovers. His
injuries, while painful, are not dan

who have so troubled uplifters of more

Sir Arthur modestly denied that he
