Statement Today.
By Associated Press
St. Paul, Mirin., Merach 16.—A state-
ment issued at state hedquarters of
Maj. Gen. Leonard Wood today claimed
that Wood carried every county in the
state at last night’s Republican presi-
dential preference primary; that Wood
delegates would be in control at the
state convention here Saturday and
that the delegation to the national con-
vention would be instructed to support
the Wood candidacy.

More than 200 people attended the
lecture delivered last night at the Y. M.
C. A. by A. H. Fromenson in the inter-
ests of the national Zionist movement
to raise $10,000,000 for the restoration
of the holy land.
According to Louis Rosenthal, chair-
man of the local committee in charge
.of the work, $1,500 has been collected
in Galveston, and it is expected that at
least $5,000 more will be contributed by
Galvestonians.
During the speech Mr. Fromenson
outlined the plans of the Zionists to
form a Jewish homeland, to be estab-
lished in Palestine under the mandate
of the British government.
Mr. Fromenson criticised congress
for its delay in ratifying peace, be-
cause. he said, this greatly hindered not
only the Zionists’ plans, but the plans
for peace in general.
Committees have been appointed, ac-
cording to Mr. Rosenthal, to canvass
Galveston during the coming week,
commencing tomorrow, to get further
subscriptions for the fund.

the conference will be agreed upon by.

further conference this afternoon at
the Hotel Galvez. The plans and de-

American oil property, which was the
main feature of the first meeting held
yesterday afternoon, were further dis-
cussed.
The conference, which comprises rep-
resentatives of thirty-five oil companies
operating in Mexico, are loath to give
out specific information regarding the
meeting, but it is understood that an
extensive program is being 'mapped
out to deal with the future develop-
ment of oil interests in Mexico.

In addition, a committee was ap-

ple’s mass meeting to be held the same
day as the county mass meeting. A
special effort will be made by the com-
mittee to secure a large attendance
to these mass meetings.

structions for the exchange of tempor-
ary liberty bonds, upon which all in-
terest coupons have matured, for per-
manent bonds. The temporary bonds

Special to The Tribune.
Austin, March 16.—Plans for co-oper-
ation in the enforcement of the state
and federal prohibition laws were dis-
cussed at a conference held between
three federal agents with Comptroller
M. L. Wiginton and Assistant Attorney
General Meachum, which was also par-
ticipated in by Pure Food Commis-
sioner R. H. Hoffman and R. V. Nichols,
agent for the attorney general’s de-
partment. The three federal officials
here were Allen Bailey of the Dallas
district, Morris A. Moore of the Hous-
ton district and Aubrey T. Stell of the
Texarkana district, but with head-
quartersat Copper, Delta county.
It was decided at this conference
that where the two laws conflict the
state law shall be given precedence, ex-
cept in matters affecting the courts or
where complaints may be filed, then
such complaints may be filed under the
federal enforcement act. Information
obtained by the state officials shall be
available for the federal agents and
data obtained by the federal officers
will b’e available for the state’s agents.
It developed during the conference
that many doctors who have state per-
mits have been prescribing whiskey
without federal permits, which is also
required. District Agent Bailey of Dal-
las said that there was not a Dallas
doctor who.had a federal permit, conse-
quently they were issuing liquor pre-
scriptions in violation of the federal
law. Only a few of the Houston doc-
tors had such federal permits, District
Agent Moore of that place said. As a
result of the conference a general un-
derstnading was reached between these
state and federal officials.

between representatives of employers
and employees has developed in the
hearing now being held here by the
industrial welfare commission over a
proposal that the enforecement of the
law be delayed until the act can be
amended by the next session of the leg-
islature.
Practically everyone at the hearing,
including Miss Annie Webb Blanton,
who is a member of the commission,
has admitted that the law, as con-
strued by the attorney general who
held that the commission must estab-
lish a flat minimum wage for each
industry to be effective all over the
state, will work a hardship in some
sections. W. R. Cousins, author of the
bill which was enacted into the law,
said that the intention of the legisla-
ture was that the minimum wages
should be fixed by zones. -
Some of the representatives of em-
ployers insisted that the minimum
wage could be fixed by zones, despite
the opinion of the attorney general,
and practically all of them urged that
the commission has authority to defer
action as long as it sees fit.
Will Harris of Dallas, who specifical-
ly represented the candy manufactur-
ers, suggested that the commission
address a letter to members of the
legislature asking their views concern-
Aug postponement of action. He then
advanced argument against fixing the
minimums too high. He contended, as
did several others, that if the minimum
is set too high that employers will
substitute men for women and the
women will suffer. He added that if
Texas manufacturers are forced to pay
high wages, out-of-state manufactur-
ers will undersell them and thus drive
the Texas firms out of business and
throw the women out of jobs. He said
that high wages will also act to keep
more factories from coming to Texas.
G. H. Slater, president of the Texas
Federation of Labor, insisted that the
law be made effective without undue
delay. He said that federal investiga-
tions and investigations of the indus-
trial welfare commission have disclosed
conditions which lead the public to de-
mand action, and that any industry
which can exist only at the expense of
the womanhood of Texas ought not to
exist. The commission’s investigations
will show, he said, women working for
$4 a week and less. The need of the
law is shown, he continued, by the
fact that employers took steps to elim-
inate most of the destitute wage con-
ditions when they learned the inspec-
tion was coming.
Wm. J. Moran of El Paso said that
the commission need not be afraid that
unemployment of women because of too
high a minimum would make them
charges upon the public, because the
employers could not get cheap men
to replace them. Low wages have made
more girls become public problems that
high wages and corresponding unem-
ployment ever will, he added, and in-
dustries owe, in return for the protec-
tion they receive from the state, the
duty of bettering the race by protect-
ing the womanhood. To force them to
do this, he said, is the purpose of the
minimum wage law.
According to men who have just re-
turned from Tampico fields, the local day afternoon at the Central Christian
government there is becoming more : church.
