Charging that Wayne B. Wheeler, general counsel of the dry organiza tion, desired the legislation because it would give him more jobs to fill, Senator Edwards, Democrat, New Jersey, said Wheeler had been “‘wield- ing the lash over this body from the Senate galleries and the reception rooms.” In a statement issued jointly with F. Scott McBride, general superin tendent of the Anti-Saloon League, Mr. Wheeler said last night passage of the bill was a “‘culmination of a more than three years' fight.” ‘Wheeler Charges Filibuster. Outlining the several civil service bills which had been introduced in the past, Mr. Wheeler charged ‘“the fili- bustering methods used by the wets to prevent a vote of Congress on this important law-enforcement legislation not only indicate their attitude in carrying on a campaign of non-en- forcement and nullification of the Constitution, but expose their insin- cerity when they talk about majority rule. Predicting that the Mouse would concur in the Senate amendments, Mr. Wheeler said, “friends of the eighteenth amendment believe that this measure will mark a decided advance in enforcement of the law.” It would take the appointment of prohibition agents “so far as possible,” he said, “out of politics.” $2, 000 FIRE IN POTOMAC Ohief Gordon Hurt When E.

It resulted, how ever, in the request for a Federal mediator. “We are expecting the same thing on all the roads throughout the fer ritory,” Mr. Doak. president of the trainmen, said, “and while we did not request KFederal mediators, we have no_objection.”’ Mr. Jeffers indicated that the ag gregate amount involved in the wage increase for employes of the Western roads (all lines west and north of Chicago) would approximate between 11 and 12 million dollars, while Mr. Doak said he did not believe it would amount to that much. WINSLOW IS8 Refases to Afirm or Deny Report of Mediation. Chairman Winslow of the Federal Board of Mediation refused last night either to affirm or to deny repor that intervention had been asked in the wage increase demand of conduc tors and trainmen upon Western railroads. The board has acted as intermedi ator in controversies which have resulted during the last six months in increased wages for the train serv. ice employes upon Eastern and South- eastern rallroads. The Western demand is more or less directly connected with the advances obtained in the other two regions, and the board’'s association in procedure affecting it Is expected in railroad circles. .
