CINCINNATI,-June 22. The. Am
erican Fcdeiation of Labor today
adepted a program imluding four pro
posed constitutional amendments, re
peal of the Sherman ami-trust Jaw
and other legislation to curb the
courts on account of decisions ad
verse to labor
The. program of amendments in
clude a congressional veto of supreme
ourt decisions'; the guarantee to
workers of the r;ght to or.ani., to
'mrgain collectively and to strike; the
prohibition of ch'ld lalHr and tiie
adoption of an easier methol than the
present for changing the federal con
stitution. The new..." laws proposed
would interpret sections of the Clay
ton act which the committ"n said
.he supreme court had "manifestly
ignored or over ridden," and a new
hild labor law that would meet ob
jections raised by the supreme court
n setting aside former enactments.
Delegates advocating th program
were greeted with noisy demonstra.
ions, and no dissent from the con
vention program was voiced during
he lung day. ; Be fore taking the pro-
Tram aimed at the courts, the on
entinn adopted a resolution favoring
nvestigating Harvard's "alleged dis
-riminatorv action which is saiil to
e contemplated" to place a ban
igainst admission of Hebrew itud-mts.
In reporting its program for curb-np-
the courts, the special polirv com
nittce declared that the suprcm"
ourt in particular had "undertaken to
leprivc American labor of freedom,,
rights and libcities."

the W. H. Iluhninkamp Co. on a beau
liful new ehapel and mortuary. This
is an improvement that the company
lias had in mind for some time. For
the past two yehin Hnl Hohnenkamp,
'who has charce of the undertaking
department, has' been looking up new
'ideas to be incorporated in the build
inp; and when completed the new
chapel will conip: re favorably with

fimes the sizo of Iak Grande.
To make room: for the new chapeJ
the old buildiiif;. which hun been uad
for some time -whs moved to another
location. Tho old location la partic
ularly well suited for this work for
it is close in to the business district
and tho bcHUtiful trees acid a great
deal in comfort and appcaran-ju.
ine Iloor plana ot the new chapel

for- a structure :(078 feet in I
dimension. A feature which ia lie
incr widely used at this time is an
inside covered driveway. This al
Iowa for the cars of the family to
be driven directly to the entrance
of the fan:!!- roohi. Outside entranc
es nnff porches are so arranged that
the people attending funerals can be
handled without any delay or con
fusion. :
The W. H. f'ohnenknmp Co.- feels
that a chapel of the kind that is un
''''r construction is something that is
needed here and that will be appreci
ated by their customers and friends.!
While the new chapel is being com-
pleted arrangeme-its have been made
to take care of any business which
