RIFT OVER LABOR
CONTINUED From Page One)

CONTINUED From Page One)
the AFL since its founding in
1890 first withdrew in the great
split of labor led by Lewis in
1886. Lewis helped form the
CIO to organize industrial un-
ions over the hot objection of
the old line craft unionists of
the AFL.
Rift With FDR
The UNIV boss fell out with
',e late President Franklin
D. Roosevelt prior to the 1910
elections and stepped down
from the CIO presidency be-
cause Roosevelt won reelection
to the White House. Within two
years he was out of the CIO
altogether and until January,
1916 he played a lone hand.
However, the wide rift Great
ed between himself and the
AFL leaders in 1886 gradually
narrowed and he and Green
healed their old wounds. Will
liam L. big Bill'' Hutcheson,
carpenters boss with whom
Lewis swapped punches at h e
1885 AFL convention paved the
way for return of the miners to
the federation in 1916.
Their withdrawal today cuts
the AFL's claimed membership
to around 100000 and makes
the AFL and CIO closer to the
same size.

STUBBORNESS

The stubborness of auto
mobile drivers was proven
for cnce and always here
yesterday afternoon.
A local resident said last
night that late yesterday af-
ternoon he drove his auto
mobile into an alley near
Front an Dock streets to
find two automobiles head
ed into one another bumper
to bumper. The drivers were
facing each other in their
cars, reading newspapers.
When he asked what the
trouble might be, they each
said they had headed into
the alley first, and neither
would back out so the other
could get through.
The resident said he peep
ed into the alley a half hour
later, and the men were still
reading their newspapers.
He said for all he knew they
were still there at midnight.

Adding a note OF unusual interest
and sentiment to the brilliant
church wedding of Miss Amanda
Wick Robbins and Louis Sanborn
Mcdowell, the lovely bride was
dressed in hermother's wedding gown
a cherished model of ivory satin
trimmed with rosepoint and duchess
lace and embroidered in seed pearls.
Mrs. Robbins wore the dress when
she and Che late Honorable N. Wick
Robbins, whose forefather was the
founder Of Vicksburg. were married
at the Methodist church in Licking
ton in January 1910.
The daughters brunette beauty was
accumulated by the ivory tones OF
rich satin and shimmering veil with
heirloom rosepoint lace trim. The
low square neckline of the wedding
gown was embroidered with pearls
and the full skirt fell in soft folds
from a fitted bodice. She wore long
ivory lace mitts and carried a bou-
quet of white asters and tube roses
tied with satin streamers.
The wedding, climaxing a series
of entertaining pre-nuptial events
during the past weeks, was attend
ed by a host of friends, including
many out-of-town guests. Lighted by
three hundred cleaning tapers. the
ceremony was impressively perform
ed at Crawford Street Methodist
Church in Vicksburg, Thursday eve
ming August %, at 8 o'clock by the
Reverend T. o. Prewitt, pastor OF
the church.
Sharing interest with the pictur-
esque bridal scene was the beautl-
full program of nuptial music rem
dered by Miss Margaret Hamilton
organist and Miss Nella Mae Gum
of New Orleans, vocalist both OF
whom are close friends and have
the same interest with the bride
who is a talented and accomplish
ed musician. Miss Hamilton played
a number of the brides favorlte
pieces including Chopin's Prelude
| No. 7 in A Minor and Leitz's LIE
bestraum and accompanied Miss
Gum whose golden soprano voice
interpreted the ~favorite love-songs'
because, Dedication" and I Love
Thee.
Strains of the Bridal March from
Lohengrin announced the entrance
of the wedding party and continued
as the youthful attendants and RAD
;art bride took their places at the
altar. Sharing the spotlight with
bride were her maids, the matron
