STREET NAMING
GROUP To MEET.

Arlington county commission
ers tomorrow night will hold pub
lie hearing on a. proposed renam-
ing of streets OF the county under
Q uniform plan.
The plan is the result of studies
by special committee of citizens,
and has been deferred for some
months. The committee is headed
by Monroe Stockett.
Under the plan it is proposed
that the county be split into zones,
that numbered streets run from
q central street and that named
streets run in the opposite direc-
ton alphabetically.
Strong opposition to the plan is
understood to be forming in many
sections, the citizens feeling that,
while benefits would result from
the plan, the resulting changes in
the county would make it not
worth while"

STUNNING
POLLS, He SAYS

The "stay-at-home" vote today
was blamed by F. Scott Mcbride,
general superintendent of the
Anti Saloon League, for the fail,
ure of the drys to carry the IA
States that have approved repeal
of the Eighteenth Amendment.
Mcbride said:
NATURALLY the dry stay-at-
home vote was much larger
than the wet stay-at-home vote
because the liquor forces had
the help of political party ma
chimes, to say nothing of the
far more extensive newspaper
and radio publicity.
Returns so far in elections
on repeal show that the dry
vote is strong enough to win
every remaining State if the
drys succeed in getting out as
large a proportion of dry voters
as the vets have gotten out in
States that voted for repeal"
Jouett Shouse, president of the
Association Against the Prohibi-
ton Amendment, also issued a
statement, in which he urged a
larger popular vote.

PRICE CONTROL
OUTLANED BY
REGULATION
Board Refuses to Approve
'State-made' Materials De-
mand; Labor Wins Fight

The Maryland-Virginia squab-
BILE over highway construction,
and similar interstate feuds orig
mating as a result of State legis-
lation or policies favoring mate
rials produced within their own
boundaries will be hit by a regu.
lation adopted by the Public
Works organization. it developed
today.
This regulation prohibits con-
tracts in any State providing
price differentials for or restrict
ing the use of materials to those
produced within the State. It is
provided, however, by the same
regulation. that preference shall
be given to materials produced
under codes of fair competition
approved under the national in
duStrial recovery act.
WAGES, TO BE FIXED
All contracts shall prescribe
minimum rates Of wages as pre-
determined by State highway de-
partments, and such wages shall
be just and reasonable compen-
Sation, sufficient to provide, for
the hours Of labor as limited, a
standard Of living in decency and
comfort. The limitation is to 80
hours a week, as a general pol
icy; not more than 40.
The right is reserved by the
Public Works Board to require

All wages shall be paid in legal

all contracts for construction shall
contain provision that no deduc-
ton shall be allowed on account
of goods purchased in any COM
missary or company store.
In general, the regulations pro,
vide for exceptional protection of
labor.
LABOR is ACTIVE
Evidently anticipating t h S
friendly attitude toward labor
the American Federation of
Labor has been unobtrusively but
abnormally active of late, and
large numbers of members have
been added to unions, particularly
to the United Mine Workers,
which has increased its enroll
ment by $4,000 in the last few
months.
Organization of the coal, oil,
automotive, steel and textile in
dustries. some of which have
been decidedly difficult for labor
to attack heretofore, is also well
under way, aided by the provi-
sion Of the law that no one shall
be compelled to join company
unions, sponsored by the en-
ployer.

Here is a community which goes dii-

The government of the town IS IN

q corporation (under the laws OF Ne

on an equal basis with his fellows.
II this is "communistic' It has al

court decisions, which give It the right
to operate on a scommunistic basis
in any state in the Union Pursuant
to this grant the town has nursed sew
