NANTAHALA LABOR
WILL MEET TODAY
Labor Commissioner Forrest
H. Shuford Will Make
Cancellation Talk

RALEIGH, Nov. 26.-RHWork-
ers at the Nantahala river dam
project, interrupted by riot among
workmen, will be called together
in mass meeting at l o'clock Thurs
day afternoon for a Cancellation
talk by Labor Commissioner For
rest H. Shuford.
Shuford, who investigated and re-
ported that there was no apparent
discrimination among workers,
said he would address the idle
men both from the viewpoint of
labor head in North Carolina and
as a spokesman for Governor
Hoey.
Southern workmen who drove
northerners off their jobs last week
and put a stop to operations on
the dam project wer reported
quiet today. The halt will mean a
delay in defense preparations,
Shuford said, because the Ameri-
can Aluminium company expects to
draw electric power from the dam
of the Nantahala Power and Light
company.
The labor commissioner probab-
ly will carry a message to the
workers, dictated by Governor
Hoey, but he declined to state the
nature of the executives state
ment.
The commissioner said officials
of the Utah construction company,
members of the A. F. of L. union
there and labor officials would seek
to reach a peaceful understanding,
with the mass meeting called to
give both the company and the
union an opportunity to express
their opinions and present their
policies to the workmen. 3

Substituting Dry Ball
In Wet Game Proposed

KANSAS CITY, Nov. 26.-R-
A football season with numerous
showery week-ends has brought
suggestions for an increase in the
powers of the referee, permitting
him to substitute a clean, dry ball
for the mud-greased pigskin in
use.
DR.. Roy Whitman of Lincoln
suggested the new rule after watch
