GOVERNOR SPROUL FIRM "In reference to your inquiry as to whether 1. had expressed any regarding my attitude toward the so-called Ramsey bill, which, would establish per cent. alcoholic content us a definition of intoxicating liquors, I beg to advise that I have repeatedly expressed my opinion that this legislation decidedly undesirable.

"While I regret that no other enforcement legislation has been enacted I am convinced that this bill would not in any way meet the requirements and that it would be futile, in it would not accomplish any purpose in opposition to the federal legislation which seems certain 01 enactment. If we should this bill and it should be appass proved, it would not avail against the federal legislation and would not accomplish any purpose for which it is intended. In the absence of federal legislation or in case that the president or congress should rescind the present war prohibition regulations, the present laws in Pennsylvania would be enforced until amendment goes into efprohibition fect next January if the wartime regulations are not rescinded this proposed enactment of our legislature would not be effective in opposition to the federal law, whatever it may be. "For these reasons, I do not see that there, is any necessity for the passaage this bill and, in fact, regard it as an undesirable proposition, politically and legally."

THE TRIBUNE THRIFTY FOLK Keep In Close Touch With Tribune Advertisements to give 1 motion pictures a practical demonstration at the Centenary Celebration," said Mr. Griffith. "The celebration will give the people in towns and villages a wonderful opportunity to visit the entire world by going no further than Columbus.

There will be an extraordinary impression produced by seeing these villages of China, Japan and India, not peopled by amateurish actors, but inhabited by real natives from foreign lands.

I understand the Methodist Church has $140,000,000 and is going to celebrate its success with something more nearly resembling a world fair than anything else to which it can be compared.

Paris, June the Associated -Colonel House announced this afternoon to American correspondents his intention to leave Thursday for London. KIEV WELL WORTH A VISIT Capital of the Ukraine Remarkable Combination of Old and New Cities. Kiev contains about five hundred thousand inhabitants, and comprises four distinct districts, which may also be called separate towns. Podol, the commercial quarter, skirts the river Dnieper, and above it, on a steep declivity, is Lipki, the residential quarter, and an enchanting spot in summer, with its handsome villas embowered in dark, luxuriant foliage. North of that is Kiev proper, which contains the university and the cathedral of St.

Sophia, a building erected in the eleventh century, but so constantly repaired and added to that it is now a huge and towering structure with more than a dozen large golden domes. Here also are the theaters, hotels and shops, which are quite as modern as those of Petrograd or Moscow. Petchersk, the fourth district, is well worth seeing, for it is honeycombed with caves and catacombs that olden days were used as places of refuge and as monastic cells, and where, during holy festivals, one can scarcely move through the dense crowds of pilgrims, of whom three hundred thousand annually visit this ancient and revered monastery, ALL the News ALL that's Best ALL the Time Altoona's Leading A AY Newspaper The Tribune 'The Favorite Paper In Store MEN READERS Appreciate Its Editorial, Local, General and Special Features.
