Norfolk, Va„ Nov. 13.—The appeal of the Brewery Workers' Union to the American Federation of Labor from the action of the latter's executive council In revoking the brewery .work ers’ charter because of their refusal to relinquish jurisdiction over the af filiated brewery engineers, firemen and teamsters, comes before the national body upon a- resolution by Victor L. Berger, of Milwaukee, the socialist leader, representing the Wisconsin Federation of Labor. The mutter will likely cause the greatest light of the present session. The' Internntlnnnl Engineers, Firemen and Tenmslers will make strong efforts to have con firmed the action of the executive council, which the Intter In represent ing the revocation of the brewery workers' charter had become tnnnria- tory In view of the action of the Mln- ncn)»Ils convention In 1900. Recom mendations of President Gonipers Is It the effect that the Amerlcnn Federa tion should return to the old policy of arbitration Instead of the mandatory policy.

Louis stove manufacturing concern came to an Issue when the lsnly .ecelved and referred to a spe cial committee of fifteen with Frank Duffy, chairman, a resolution setting forth the fight that Is now being waged "in an attempt to disrupt the labor or ganisations of the country’ and pro viding for a "campaign of education against Van Cleave and his Interest* through all central bodies allied with the American Federation. \\ hen asked for a reply to the statement by Ather ton Brownell, editor of The American Industries that it will require more than a verbal denial for president Gompers to "disprove the truth of al legations that he personally benefits financially and to a large amount front the use of the organization of which he Is the head.” . , ... ' Mr. Gompers said the whole thing was simply a rehash of charges that sve already been answered. "Who 1* this hireling," said Mr. Compel*, "who seeks through these Infamous charges to discredit the officials of organised labor and thus Injure Its cause. It la too contemptible for me to notice further.” HOUSE DISCUSSES PROHIBITION BILL Called For Passage When Body Assembled on Wednesday. Special to The Georgian.
