SOLDIERS OBJECT
TOBONE-DRYLAWS
Dispatches Say Overseas
Men Resent Legislation
During Their Absence.
TALKING OF RETALIATION
News dispatches from abroad assert
that a feeling of resentment is growing
among the 2,000,000 American sol'lioro
in Vi o f> v i t innarv f nrPP be
cause of the "bone dry" prohibition
legislation which Congress has put
through during their absence.
It is said they feel they should have
been given an opportunity to vote on
these measures. The same dispatches
say the soldiers are talking of retaliating
against the members of Congress
who put through this legislat
ion.
"Since the armistice was signed the
men abroad have had more time to
consider what has been happening at
home in theW^bsence. But that the
returning Army will have a strong
influence when it reaches home, not
as a military force, but politically, is
believed to be very true.
Ne?ded Legislation Cited.
Although the nation-wide prohibition
constitutional amendment is now
in the process of being ratified by the
states, and from present indications it
will be ratified by three-fourths of the
states within the next year, should
?'ongress fail to enact legislation to
enforce the amendment after its adoption
it would be as ineffective as
though it had never been put forward
by Congress and the state legislatures.
Some of the members of congress
. : : * 1. : ? 1 - r?fl
are oegmiuug iu uiuia
what will be the attitude of the returning
American soldiers on a number
of internal questions, among them
that of nation-wide prohibition. They
are not at all sure that these men will
be willing to see sumptuary laws enacted
in which they have had no voice.
Views of Opponents.
Rome of the opponents of prohibition
go so far as to say that Congress
will not enact laws to make the constitutional
amendment effective, even
if it is ratified by a sufficient number
of states.
Under the provisions of the resolution
submitting the proposed amend- ,
ment to the states, the Congress and ;
the states are authorized to enact legislation
to make prohibition effective. ,
The prohibition will not become effective.
in any event, until one year
after the states have ratified the
amendment and its ratification has been :
proclaimed.
SAYS DELAY IN BUILDING
WOULD HURT ALL LABOR
Secretary Morrison of the A. F. of ,
.L. Urges Activity at Once?Federal
Bureau to Help.
Building should begin and become
general at once. Secretary Morrison
of the American Federation of Labor
said yesterday. Mr. Morrison said
many persons who contemplate erecting
houses, office buildings and other
structures are postponing activity until
spring. He declared this policy
would have a disastrous effect on
labor.
The Department of Labor has organized
a new division for the purnose
of encouraging immediate resumption
of building. Some citizens
who have really made preparations
to build are holding off for a decrease
in the cost of labor and material.
it is pointed out by the Department
?f Labor that the great cities of the
nation have invariably been built by
costly labor. They point to San Francisco.
where, .after the f^eat tidal
wave and fire, the city was rebuilt
by men who received more for their
labor than the mechanics are today
demanding. They also call attention
10 Seattle, a city which was built
by mechanics who received very high
pay for their work.
Fi is a peculiar fact that as soon
ns the price of labor begins to fall
building operations lag." Louis F.
I'ost. assistant secretary for the Department
of Labor, recently said.

House Apropriation Bill Allots
Amount for Streets and
Alleys at $40,QC0.
A limitation of $40,000 in the
District appropriation bill, as it
passed the House, upon the amount
that may be expended in condemnation
proceedings for street extensions
and alley improvements, threatens a
serious check upon the District's
growth.
There is no limit now and has been
none upon the amount the Commissioners
could spend for this purpose.
It is not a charge originating under
the half-and-half act, as the cost of
extending streets is assessed wholly
against the property benefited.
Money Expended in Other Years.
In some years the District has
spent as high as Soi>0.000 in condom
dent to the extension of Wisconsin .
avenue from Massachusetts avenue to
the District line, which is the largest "\
condemnation case now pending, will "
be in excess of $100,000. 1
It is stated that the $40,000 limita- ]
tion carried in the House bill will
scarcely meet the ordinary needs of I
opening alleys and that it will be en- j
tirely insufficient for the purposes of .
street extensions called for in the 1
normal expansion of the city. ^
Will Appeal to Senate. o
The commissioners are expected to 2
make a strong effort to have the \
provision eliminated in the Senate.
Its retention in the appropriaion S
measure, it is claimed, will mean a
death blow to the District's permanent
highway plan.

Would-Be Bridegroom Neglected ?
First to Ask Young Woman jf
About It. *
o
t:
Plans for at least one Christmas F
wedding appear to have "gang aglee." ?
Col. William A. Kroll, the license
clerk, today received a note from the
minister named in the case notifying t
him that the ceremony had not been v
performed. ^
The clergyman says he went to
the appointed place at the hour
named and found the young couple. \
The bridegroom-to-be, taking the o
license from his pocket, toid the min- ?
ister he would not keep him waiting.The
young woman in the case remained
seated and declared, accord- n
ing to the writer, her unwillingness "
to wed. ?
The writer, continuing, says: p
"The man insisted, entreated, and s
finally put his two hands to his head, r
as though his brain was taking fire
and he wished to smother the flames.
Again he approached the young s
woman, entreating her to be his t
bride, but she simply said: 'You did c
not tell me you were going to do
this, and. as there can be no marripe
without my consent, it is useless
to ask me. I am not going to marry *
tonight. That ends it.'" }*
The license had not been returned jat
noon, so Col. Kroll thinks an
agreement may yet be reached and
the ceremony performed.

Hopes to Solve Problem Through
Formation of Junior Section. f
a
c
A Junior section to handle the place- ?
ment of workers of the nation be- q
tween the ages of sixteen and twenty- f
one has be^n organized by the United
States employmeift service of the De- v
partment of Labor. Two specialists r
have been appointed to organize and a
direct the work of the junior section.
They are Jesse B. Davis, principal of c
the Central High School of Grand I'
Kapids, Mich., who has had experience ?
in vocational guidance, and Mrs. An- j
na Y. Reed of Seattle, who has had \
experience in teaching and business *
management.
If the placement of the young workers,
who, according to the census of
1910. eaual the total number of pro- j
ductive workers between twenty-one I
and forty-four, can be handled wisely
for five years, according to the de- I
part men t, it is believed that one ofj
the most serious problems now con- |
fronting the employment service will
have been solved. The last census
showed that in comparison with the
woman workers over twenty-one,
girls were employed in the ratio of
eight to five.
