stead act and the legalixIng of the
manufacture and sale Of light wines
and beer was favored in a resolution
passed in the final session OF the
Colorado State Federation Of Labor
meeting held In La Junta. The reso-
luton pointed out In strong terms the
existing evils under prohibition and
the seemingly steady increase in boot
Logging and the Illicit manufacture Of
liquor In all parts of the country, and
stated that In the belief Of the men,
bers Of the federation a modification
Of the act, with the return Of light
wines and beer, would materially de-
crease, II not bring to an end such
evils. The resolution was passed unan-
lmously without general discussion.
The resolutions will be sent to all
Colorado senator's and representatives
Of the national Congress. Another res
olution passed at the meeting was one
strongly censuring Secretary of State
Carl Afilliken for his action In award
ing to the Michigan state penitentiary
the contract for the furnishing Of 1924
automobile license plates for Colorado.
II was the contention Of the federation
members that this contract should
have been awarded to Colorado firm
rather than TO a penitentiary, and
especially penitintiary Of an eastern
state.
