TOADMIT WOMEN Executive Council, Declaring Inability to Force Action, ATLANTIC CITY, Aug. 24.~Repre- sentatives of women wage earners appeared to-day before the Executive Council of the American Federation of Labor in session here and urged It to take steps Immediately to compel all unions to admit them to member- hip with fuli privileges.

The women workers, stood, will now make a new appeal to the individual International Uni- ons for membership, backed by a declaration adopted by the Denver convention of the Federation calling upon International Unions that do not admit we workers to mem- bership to g¢ arly consideration for such adm it is under- ——<»——- ALLEGED BOOZE FACTORY ON CANAL ST.
