have a full discussion of prohibition from time to time He agreed he said with Senator Reed that a political dry should 1) dry personally "Senator Reed said there were those who insisted on enacting laws like this but who violate them" he said The Senator said they were severely to he condemned I think all right-thinking mpn and women will agree to that If those who make the laws violate them the ax has already been laid at the root of the tree of representative government" But Senator Borah asserted lie could not agree with Reed that the Volstead law was a crime in itself The people may have erred in their judgment" he said "Time and experience alone will demonstrate that But it was not a crime The object was an exalted one The purpose embodied something of the ideal We may not have found the right method I don't know But the fight against the liquor traffic is not a fight of a week or ten days It is an eternal fight Senator Borah said he was not committed to all opposition to modification or even to repeal of the Eighteenth Amendment and the Volstead act There Will Be Xn Return "I am only committed against modification or repeal so long as nothing better is be said venture to say that the Eighteenth Amendment will stand in the Constitution until the moral forces of the United States decide there is something better There will be no going hack in the effort to control the liquor traffic which has been torturing the abandoned the Bible and the temperance tract for the lash We then ught to persuude We now try to comiiel Sirs you cannot compel a free ople and

had urged that the Government distribute poison through bootleggers on the theory flint it would he worth the lives of a few hundred thousand people to get prohibition enforced Wheeler henonneed these suggestions were only the sporadic utterances of iusnne jwrsons they would not bo worth mentioning lie said "lint that spirit is abroad in th-i land that the law sanctified and justifies any cruelty any atrocity" Senator Reed recalled that the Volstead act was enacted at the "demand" of the Anti-Saloon League under the leadership of the late Wayne Wheeler ami lie proceeded to read excerpts from Mr biography by Justin Stewart a former publicity man of the league Mr Wheeler according to the biography had controlled six Congresses dictated to two Presidents picked candidates for important offices held tlie balance of power in both parties and supervised a Federal burenu from the outside without official authority Furthermore according to the look he was an exponent of force he preferred threats to persuasion and he desired the most severe penalties He Preferred Force "That is the picture presented by the eulogist and former secretary of this mnn" Reed asserted "He preferred force He was going to make the people believe in hell fire That is the spirit that has permeated throughout this country" Mr Wheeler Senator Reed said held "degrading and despicable philosophy it was all right for a man who drank to vote dry and that it was proper to nominate any regardless of party who would favor prohibition politically tiou of the United Slates that the sale of Intoxicating liquors is injurious to the public welfare and that that embodies the policy of the people I propose in every way that is reasonable and fair to undertake to maintatn that Constitution Let us all combine in that effort "The Senator from Missouri will never see the day 1 will never see the day when the Eighteenth Amendment is out of the Constitution of the United States In the meantime using our influence our moral leadership our public duty as Senators and citizens lot us see to It that it is enforied in so far as it is possible for human ingenuity to do it" Taking up Mr Reed's advocacy of State control he said that would mean a return of the saloon Snloon Han (lone "While some of ns may jeer at the temperame reformer" he said think they have accomplished one thing We have got rid of the saloon Would they have ever closed the saloon by moral suasion? "Suppose Missouri were wet How would you protect the bordering States? have to huve your sqdcs you'll have to have your police-ihen There is no more reason to expect they will respect the borders any more than they do the Constitution" When Senator Heflin prevented Senator Reed's rebuttal both Borah and Heed left the chamber in the general exodus Later several Senators took pot-shots at the nrguments of the star performers of the day need Speech I niler Fire Senator Sheppard pointed out that Mr Reed had complained in one breath that too many people were being sent to juil and in the next that prohibition was not being enforced in one breath that there was plenty of liquor and in the next that because of the lack of it drinkers were being forced to drugs "The Senator who spent two days hpre denouncing hypocrites offered himself at Houston to lead the drys" said Senator Caroway Ileniocrat Arkansas "Of course the drys were not Railed by Senator Caraway said it did not tuke any courage to denounce people en bloc but it did take courage to name individuals It was plain he was criticizing Reed Senator Bruce Democrat Maryland took a pot-shot or two at Borah He said Borab who had expressed his willingness to accept a better plan had never given even the most casual attention to the Bruce hill to put the (juebec system into effect in this country There any slum in the United human race for 2000 States where the slum hos does not The question of enforcing the Consti-bave higher code of political morals! tution is infinitely more important than be declared I than that of

would get it back and Mr Bok admitted that also was his father's hope Not Chimes But Bells William Rice Albany appeared to plead for the abolition of the present duty solely from the cultural and artistic standpoint He explained what carillons were that they were not ehimes but in their best form consisted of thirty-five or more bells and played chords He said that no carillon in the proper sense had ever been made in this country or could now be made in this country The Park Avenue Baptist Church of New York sometimes referred to as John Rockefeller's church put in a plea for the abolition of the duty on carillons through William Conklin Mr Conklin said the carillon for this church consisted of sixty-seven bells and told how the church had tried to get the carillon produced here but without success The carillon he said cost $250000 and the duty was $100-000 more TWO NEW PRISONS ARE URGED Representative Bo-lan Introduces Bill Following Probe Washington Feb 18 Establishment of two new Federnl prisons would be authorized under a bill introduced today by Representative Boylan Democrat New York a member of the special House Committee which recently investigated penal institutions One would be located in the Northeastern part of the country and the other either in the Middle West or the Southwest Boylan said to relieve the overcrowded condition of the Atlanta and Leavenworth prisons valiant nir nnd said he knew of no promise made six years ago to make women's line gloves such as are made in France but wished they had made such a for now to the generous protection of the Fordney-MeCumber net were producing a kind of glove that was making the French sick with envy" With an air of satisfaction and victory hc tossed onto the desk of the committee samples of gloves made here which he said they could not tell from the finest grades made abroad and were superior in many ways He said the duties that the importers were seeking would mean ii decrease in the present duty which is $4 a dozen on women's gloves and $5 on with nn additional nd valorem impost on high grades Witness Is Evnsivc "Are any of the quality called brush and dyed manufactured in this country?" asked Mr Rainey "Oh answered the witness "In commercial do you call commercial said the witness thni you would notice said Mr Rainey admitted Mr Moses "but we make something Mr Rainey observed that the question at issue was the brushed-und-dyed kind not something else that the American manufacturers had promised to meet this quality if they were given protection and they had not done so He pointed out that the witness had first said tint kind of glove was made here and then had to admit that they were not in any marketable sense Wage In Industry Lower In reply to Mr Treadway Republican Massachusetts Mr Moses said he did not take any stock in the idea of tradition nnd intuition being effective in tiie French glove industry Mr Hull Democrat Tennesssee called attention to the fact that average wages in tlie glove industry were twenty per cent lower than in other manufacturing industries Mr Moses did not deny it but accounted for it partly by the circumstances that much of the work done by women at home a kind of labor which protectionists regard as extremely reprehensible when done in foreign countries Lr Cannot Produce Carillons Representative Gifford Massachusetts appeared under the head of carillons to ask that the duty of forty per cent now levied be remitted when they were imported for educational or religious purposes "Do you admit the premise that they cannot be made in this asked Mr Garnet Mr Gifford did not reply directly but said he would admit that carillons when made so as to play in tune were a very beautiful thing but when out of tune they were an "Do you mean to say" continued Mr Garner American brains and American ingenuity and American enterprise cannot produce what inferior foreign countries Mr Gifford admitted there was some secret in the construction of carillons How Levy 11 ns Evaded While the Representative from Massachusetts was before the committee Mr McLaughlin Republican Michigan evidently considered it opportune to relate a pertinent incident He said he had heard of one importation of a carillon where tbe collector of the port did not sympathize with the levy of forty per cent duty on such things He could not remit the duty but the law did permit him to place the carillon in a "bonded Accordingly he designated the church tower for which the carillon was imported ns the "bonded and there the carillon was placed and still remains It was indicated by a later witness that this earillon was put up in Gloucester Mass and that a similar sidestepping of the customs in the matter of carillons had taken place in the same customs district in two other caRes Mr Rainey asked if the witness knew whether the carillon imported by Edward Bok which was placed in saloon League

Reconsider Decision In California Case FALL RULING INVOLVED Government To Determine If Standard Oil Company Holds Valid Possession Washington Feb 18 (P) The Supreme Court today gave the Government an unobstructed course for it to determine whether the Standard Oil Company of California holds a valid title to valuable oil lands in Kern county California embraced within the Elk Hills naval oil reserve The final obstacle in the Government's pathway was removed today by the court's refusal to reconsider its recent decision which held that the Secretary of the Interior could conduct an inquiry to determine whether the land in question was known to be mineral at the time it was surveyed Fall Action lldd Not Flnnl An attempt by the present Administration to examine the title was prevented by the courts of the District of Columbia which held that Albert Fall while Secretary of the Interior had closed the matter by awarding the land to the Standard Oil Company The Supreme Court however found that Fall's action was not final It declared he had failed to go properly into the question of facts nnd it opened the way for the Interior Department to proceed with its examination Court Closes Matter The court by its ruling today finally closed the matter in its present stage by refusing to rehear the case Should it develop that the land was known to be mineral when surveyed the Government will claim it contending that it never lawfully passed it to California as school lands nnd that its sale by California to the Standard Oil Company did not give that company title to it The Government hopes it will be enabled to add the land to its Elk Hills naval oil reserve OTHER SUPREME COURT NEWS Counsel For Sinclair Argues In Contempt Case Appen Washington Feb IS tP) Arguing that Harry Sinclair was within his rights in refusing to answer certain questions asked by a Senate committee relative to the Teapot Dome naval oil leases Martin Littleton the oil man's counsel today challenged the Supreme Court to find anything in these questions relating to other than the "most fantastic conceptions of Littleton quoted a Supreme Court decision holding that a witness might decline to answer committee questions the bounds of the power bit exceeded or the questions are nut He said the Senate Public Lands Committee that tin information they sought to elicit from Sinclair was not for aid in formulating legislation Littleton also contended that Sinclair who is under sentence by the Supreme Court of the District of Columbia of three months in jail and to pay a fine of $500 was not properly called by the committee The counsel argued the conviction of his client for a crime" wns therefore not valid because "every requisite must be complied with" FOCH NOW RECOVERING

by scores of gen era ions and resembling them in no other respect were aroused to the same kind of battling enmity when tbe glove was cast into the tariff arena of tbe Ways and Means Committee today Challenge Is Accepted A passionate importer burled a challenge at the domestic glove manufacturers that they were unuble to product the same quality of glove ns wns made abroad It was immediately accepted by tbe representative of American products and fur some minutes the contest wns kept alive by questions from members of the committee The Americuu enjoyed a brief moment of triumph in which he cast a scornful look in the direction of hia accusers but at the end he had to withdraw with lance broken and colors trailing after his proud boasts had been punctured by the sharp quizzing of Representative Rainey Tlie afternoon hearing which begun with the noise of affray ended on the sweet and soothing notes of musical harmony when artistic and educational circles united in pleading for a remission of the present duty of forty per cent on carillons whieh no one in tlie rifted States has ever had the craftmnnship to make and anomalously enough it was the discussion of carillons with their cultural nnd religious implications which brought to notice as piquant an example of Yankee guile as has ever been recorded Importer Starts Hostilities Lewis New York representing the Association of Glove Importers started the hostilities when ut asked that a specific duty be substituted for the present "unworkable" nd valorem duty and demanded a separation between the sheep and the goats He asked that the duty on lambskin gloves be put at $4 a dozen and that on kid or goat skin at $5 He said he and his associates believed in protection for American industry and were more than willing to have it but hc said what the American manufacturers wanted was not protection but "glove He said that when the present tariff net was being framed the American manufacturers promised that if they were only given the protection they ould produce the fine quality of women's gloves now mostly made in Grenoble France He said they had not done so He challenged any domestic manufacturer to produce any women's or children's gloves of the brushed nnd dyed kind like the foreign article which had been made under the present law He spoke with much feeling and swung around toward the audience in which the American manufacturers' representatives were sitting and shouted: "I defy He was asked by some of the high I riff members of the committee if the gloves he spoke of could not he made in America if the duty was sufficient to protect American labor "They could not make them in this country if they lrnd $50 a dozen h8 asserted Now Want More Dnty "The facts are are they not" asked Mr Rainey Democrat Illinois "that the glove manufacturers came here six years ago and got a hundred per cent increase on brushed and dyed gloves under the Fordney-McCumbcr act and that now they come here again and ask for a twenty-five per cent further increase although they have not been able to make that kind of glove in marketable The witness said that was so The position taken by Mr Lewis was supported by Smith who has been in the glove business ail his life has his entire capital invested in it and spoke of his business as a painter would about art In response to a question about cheap foreign labor nnd the ability of American manufacturers to produce the same thing if placed on i basis of labor equality Mr Smith replied that labor had pothing whatever to do with it The making of fine gloves was "an intuition" he said The workers in France had it bred in the bone their fathers and their grandfathers before them had been engaged in the same work and they developed a skill and a taste it was impossible to aequire in a short time Taste and skill could not be created by protective tariffs The French glove makers he said were "not only artisans but artists' The

of England before the public statement was issued Speaker Hole Auilntl Him Tlie Speaker held that this resolution which was in the form of a series of direct questions was improperly addressed Such a resolution he ruled could be addressed only to heads of departments Mr Black had charged by implication that the board was influenced in its warning by Mr Norman who was here shortly before the stuteineut was issued Charging that this country was aiding in building up the depleted British gold reserves Mr Black asserted that "the President should let this country know whether the Administration has decided on a deflation policy to assist Great Britain" Anked About Norman The resolutions relate specifically to Mr Norman's recent visit to this country Mr Black wants to know whether the hoard conferred with the governor of the Bank of England and if so the nature of the discussions Under the House rules if action has not been taken in seven days a resolution addressing a
