tion of Labor at the closing ses-
sion of the annual convention
here yesterday, outward harmony
at least was restored in the ranks

Control At Stake
Delegates from the three dis
tricts of the federation, the Dis

Maryland counties, had been at
loggerheadS since the opening
meeting Monday afternoon over

tive offices.
The Washington delegates, sup
ported by many from western
Maryland, maintained that the
general convention had the right
to reject caucus selections of
candidates The Baltimore city
faction claimed that district
caucus selections should be final
and that the general meeting
has power only to confirm these
recent recommendations.

Frank j. Coleman, of Wash

of the federation. Newton A.
James and r. A. Dickson, also
of Washington, we're elevated to

Bruce and Shaw Complain

ANNAPOLIS, May 21.-Gov,

asked to institute a thorough
investigation Of the State Roads
Commission in a communication
addressed to him by Howard
Bruce and John K. Shaw, for
mer members of the commission,
who were named to the COM

debt of $4,000 against the com
mission.

signed, E. Brooke Lee, Mont
gomery county Democratic leader,
and Robert Lacy were named to
succeed them. It was at the

mediately following that Mont
gomery county erased its debt
BY the payment of $275,000 in
cash and by crediting the bal
ance to the 1881 State road al
location.
Mr.. Bruce. in his statement,
declared that it had been i'm
possible until this year to deter
