The only "prohibition problem" In the 'colleges, according to Dr. W. C. Covert.

OFFICIALS CREATE PLOYED Long Branch Commissioners to Pare Down to Provide Emergency Fund. WEST END IS SEEKING NEW FIRE APPARATUS (Lon Branch Bsrua ot Prnat LONG BRANCH, Jan. 21. Unemployment relisf will receive official stimulus during 1931 as the result of a suggestion made to the city commission yesterday by Commissioner Thomas He Urged the creation of a fund drawn from the various city departments and the plan was given approval by an unanimous vote of the governing body. Commissioner Beatty, In making the proposal for a fund, said in part, "The matter of unemployment in this city is becoming quite a serious matter and I would suggest that we create a fund which would help to correct this condition." Hs said that his recommendation would be to have each commissioner pare down his appropriation during 1931, so that an emergency fund might be established, the fund to provide work for as many unemployed as possible.

Whlls tb; recommendation did not specify the amount to be thus created, the remaining members of the commission adopted the Idea without comment. Mr. Beatty expressed the hope that the fund might reach $3,000. Appeal For New Apparatus West End's need for a new finr apparatus to replace the present equipment was argued before the board by Henry J. McCarthy of ths West End engine company.

He asserted despite numerous requests for a new engine, a sattsfastorv'esult had not been obtaovd from city officials. He declared that the present apparatus is in a dangerous condition and recounted that Monday night, firemen were forced to push It when it went dead "30 or 40 feet from a fire." On a previous occasion, he asserted, the truck was found to be without biakes, while en route to answer a call. A charge by Mr. McCarthy that his community received but little consideration at the hands of th! city governing body was opposed by Mayor J. William Jones who declared that he knew of nothing asked within reason that in I he past had not been granted to Wst End residents.

Commissioner Charles Brown, public safety head, declared that the apparatus In question, allho not as old as some other pieces in the city, had been the object of more repair work and attention than any other engine. The brake condition, the commissioner asserted, was due to the firemen prae-toclng for contests after new brake linings had been installed in the apparatus last summer. On recommendation of Commissioner Milton A. Bennett, the zoning ordinance was again postponed a week for its second and final readings. Commissioner C.

F. Carr reported that a contract for the emercency repairs to the beachfront bulkhead had been awarded to the low Udder, Wool-ley and Howland. The cost will oc Following the receiptor permit from the state board of health allowing the erection of a new septic tank at North Long Branch, City Solicitor William L.

UNEIV1 UND Thompson Measure to Propose Legislature Memorialize Congress to Grant Full Payments. SEES MONEY AS AID TO 1 STABILIZING CONDITIONS NEW Jan.

21 Assemblyman Joseph Thompson will Introduce Into the state legislature Monday night a resolution asking the legislature to petition congress for immediate and lull payment on veretanV atlusled compensation certificates, the Oeean county legislator announced today. "I hall Introduce this resolution Monday night because It ts the fair thing to do for our veterans and b--cause I think it will stabilize conditions due to the depression," he said, "There are many veterans, those ga.ssed and otherwise wounded, wha will not be here In 1945 when the cer tificates are due," he continued, "and i I think it is the fair, and patriotic thing to help them now." "Each veteran will get from $100 to $1,500, and If they are paid Immediately, the vast sum coming into their pockets will do much to help stabilize conditions In this country, "There jhave been many attempts to help the veterans, and I am disgusted with the politics that get nowhere In helping them." Thompson declared thnt many, veterans are already borrowing on their compensation, and at the rate of interest they must pay, "those who are left will have eaten up their certificates by 194.V" He said the resolution Is similar to one his wife introduced In 1924 In opposition to the organization policy, calling lor payment of the soldiers' bonus. Asked what chances his resolution had to go thru the legislature, Thompson replied: "The only thing I can say is Just what my wife said at the time she Introduced hir resolution, and that ls God help ths administration if it doesn't go thru."

P) Two new faces In the gallery of women whose life courses have crossed with that Of the former Maharajah of Indore were revealed In a suit for damages filed here against the former maharajah today. Chargps that she and her daughter were imprisoned ior 11 years in the former maharajah's palace at' Indore are made In the action by the plaintiff. Mrs. Sowkalbal Pandarlnalh Raj-pmkar, widely known Indian operatic singer. It Is the singer's charge that Sir Tukoji Rao Holkar, who married Miss Nancy Miller of Seattle three years ago, and whose previous affair with the beautiful Numtas Begum, Mohammedan dancer, cost him his throne, not only wrongfully restrained her and her daughter but seized hrr lurnlture, jewelry and other property in Bombay, WCAP MAY GET EXTENDED TIME WOAX, Now Sharing With Local Station, Is Ordered Off Air Jan.

31. The possibility that more time would be allotted to Station WCAP was seen today in the announcement that the Federal Radio commission had ordered Station WOAX of Trenton off the air Jan. 31 becaus? of failure to renew Its license. WOAX along with WCAM of Camden shares time with WCAP. The order may be lifted If the Tren-ton station applies for a license immediately and offers a substantial reason for Its failure' to make the application within the time limit set by the federal commission.

In this event the schedule of the thrr.e stations would remain unchanged. If an appeal Is denied, however, It Is expected that WCAP will apply for a part of I he time WOAX now uses, probably sharing It also with WCAM. WOAX was recently sold to Franklin Ford, Long Island radio station operator, who gained notoriety for his criticism of the Catholic church. OF DRYS AND WETS BRING JOUORROW Flood of Comment on Wickersham Prohibition Report No More In Accord Than 11 Commissioners. POLITICIANS SEEK SIGNS OF EFFECT ON 1932 VOTE WASHINGTON, Jan, 21.

verberatlons from the Wickersham prohibition report continued in congresa and political meeting places of ths capital today. The prospect was that they would not cease for many moons. With no Immediate intention to taka It up for action at the present session, the bulky document which supported constitutional prohibition In broad terms but left an opening for a fundamental revision, rested with the ju dielary committees of the senate and house. It had hardly been transmitted to congress yesterday by President Hoover Larson Stands by "Morrow Report" TRENTON, Jan. 21.

Got. Morgan V. Larson Intends continuing following ulled States Senator Marrow on his stand for repeal of the Eighteenth amendment, no nutter what the Wick-when a-iked for comment on the report nld. The governor said yesterday, report, lhat the Republican party has adopted Morrow's program as Its pisiform and he will support the platform, Morrow urged repeal and re- turn to the itntes of liquor control. In the menntime he urged strict enforcement.

befor there was unleashed a flood of comment which showed both wets and drys sharing satisfaction and dissatis faction, according to their individual Interpretations, Many members contln-tied today deep in a study of the prln ctpnl report, signed by all but one of the 11 members of the law enforcement commission, and the Individual opinions attachrd bjf each commissioner. They listened also for the reaction! from the country, to weigh eonseqticn ces In the political field. Hoover's Stand Called Dry That political effects would follow, to be heard from in the next elections and perhaps lar lu tlin future, was unqups-thioncd. The message with which the president transmitted the report to congress was seized on immediately by one Of the antl-prohlbitlonlsts, Senator Walsh, Democrat, Massachusetts, with the assertion; "Mr. Hoover takes his stand with the prrhibltlon wing of his party and nails his own and his party's ban ner to the dry masthad." The president's message said he waa In accord with the conclusion of the majority of the commission that the Eighteenth cmendment should not ba and that his own enforcing duty was clear, He withheld approval specifically from the suggested possible revision under which congrrss would be given power to deal as it saw fitwlth the liquor trnfilc.

'Tried to Please Roth' 'Mrs. Norton Representative Mfry T. Norton, New Jersey Democrat and anti-prohlbl-tlontst, declared. "Ths commissioners would qualify for diplomatic posts. They have evidently tried to please both the.

wets and the drys." Meanwhile, from within the commls sion came an Interpretation of ths re port as one which "taken as a whole" favored modification. This viewpoint was advanced by Henry Anderson ot Richmond, who said while the jcnere.l report contained no such flat recommendation, the individual opln-, ions showed "Ave members favor mod Ideal ion now, while four others favor giving It a further trial and then modifying It if it does not succeed." So aroused were the commission members ever reports that the presi dent had intervened to forestall an unequivocal hiocUfleatlon proposal that tho following statement was issued by Chairman Wickersham: "Ths statement this morning In ths Washington Herald that the president persuaded this commission to abandon a 'tentative recommendation In favor of revision of the Eighteenth amendment ts absolutely untrue and without foundation," Some Meant to I'rge Change While the majority conclusions of the report set forth unanimous agreement on a draft of ths substitute amendment to be used "if" the Eighteenth amendment were to be revised, a study of the individual opinions showed several members assumed that the com- mlt-Ion was flatly recommending that such a revision be made. Anderson had written: concur In the reccmmendatlon cf ths report that the Eighteenth amendment be modified as therein stated."

Holt-man, 'commissioner of motor vehicles, announced today he planned recommending to the legislature enactment of a law which would establish a new crime "Involuntary homicide. Prosecutions of motorists on charges of manslaughter are difficult and convictions are rare, he said, because "Jurors, many of whom are also operators of ears, believe the charge of manslaughter Is too strong, and are therefore reluctant to Indict or convict." Prosecutor Joseph Smith of Essex and Prosecutor Howard Eastwood of Burlington, the commissioner said, were drafting a bill which would have the approval of his department JURY GETS CASE OF Panel of Elderly Persons Hears Summation.

GOVERNMENT WILL CITE FORMER LIQUOR VERDICT WASHINGTON, Jan. 21. CP) The Clark decision holding the Eighteenth amendment Invalid was put to test today In the supreme court.

Oral argument on the government's prompt appeal began shortly after noon, Chief Justice Hughes withdrew from the case, announcing he submitted a brief to the court when prohibition was before it In 1920, and thus considered himself disqualified. The decision of Federal Judge William Clark of New Jersey, was based on a contention that the amendment to be valid should have been ratified by state conventions rather than by state legislatures. -''After brief' preliminaries, Solicitor General Thatcher presented the government's argument in a' half hour. He said It seemed clear that article (five of the Constitution had conferred ample authority upon congress for' Its determination to refer the amendment to state legislatures, While In nearby chambers members of congress pondered the Wickersham prohibition report, a talented array of counsel presented carefully studied arguments. Cites Previous Decision -Upholding the validity of the amendment for the government, Solicitor General Jhacher offered as a major argument, that the court had previously sustained the and that the case presented no new question for its decision.

He held either method of iUtif ication was. proper. Julius Hen.iV Cohen and Selden Bacon represented William H. Sprague and William J. Hovey, whoss indictment 'for the prohibition laws arose from transportation of 50 half-barrels of.

beer. They supported Judge Clark's decision, with an argument following closely, the lines of the jurist's, lengthy and exhaustive opinion. The wide public attention attracted by' the Clark decision was reflected in numerous requests from attorneys and organizations that the court permit than to intervene and file briefs. Negroes Ftar Adverse Decision One of these was from the association for the advancement of colpred people. It contended that since the amendment abolishing slavery and other affecting Negro rights were ratified bv state legislatures, thev too imld be invalid should the supreme court uphold Judge Clark.

(Since the case has been pending In the supreme court, two federal courts have announced decisions holding the amendment valid. They took the view previous supreme court-decisions had sustained the amendment from such attacks as those presented in the Clark case.

Charges of "menaces, nets of terrorism and bloody violence" were laid before the council by Curtlus, European Peace Imperilled German-Polish relations growing out of the minorities question are regarded in Geneva as one of the greatest threats to the peace of post-war Europe.
