(Special to The Kagle.) Albany, February 6 The next strike rits in New York State may be quelled by tanks, instead of men in the uniform of the State militia, according to news of the plans for the reorganization of the State Guard which lias drifted to the ears of New York State legislators, from the thirty-two appointed by Adjutant Gen. Berry to work out a plan fr the upbuilding of the Liuard in the I senators and Afsemblvmen have lieurd thu( ll)e plans under considera tion call for the addition to the pres ent branches of service in the Slate Guard, including infantry, cavalry, machine gun companies and sanitary and lied Cross units, of all representative units of all the new fighting forces developed during the war. One of the principal additions, it was declared, would be the formation of tank corps. It is stated here that in addition to the use of such units as training schools for otdcers in case it ever, became necessary to raise another National Army, the tanks would be most effective in quelling mobs and riols. The use of these monsters, it was declared, would because of their the faith of many a former strong believer In the wholesomeness of prohibition legislation.

One result already apparent is a growing sentiment for legislation that will moisten the prospective aridity of the State after January 20. 1920, when the Federal drv law becomes effective. In fact, whereas a week ago there was practically no chance at all for the passage of legislation defining the term "intoxicating liquors" as used in tho Federal amendment in such a way as to permit the sale of some of the lighter alcoholic beverages, such legislation now has a real chance. The situation is reflected most strikingly in the fact that tho flrsi batch of legislation introduced with this end in view, instead of merely opening the. doors just Wide enough to let tnrougn tho most mild liquors, proposed to rip the door almost off the hinges.

Assemblyman Clarence F. Welsh, of Albany, introduced yesterday several such measures. The first defines "in- ioxicatmgliquors" as beverage-s "to mean all distilled or reetitipd wines and spirits fermented and niait son M. E. Church, Clermont and.

Wil-liquors or any liquids in combination loughby beginning April 9, the therewith which contain alcohol in date having been changed from April excess of ten percentum." 2, was announced at meeting of the This would permit the sale of i eifllcial board of St. John's Church lust almost all beers, many ales, a large nisht. list of California wines anil manv The pulpit committee comprised oilier liquors now in common use.

The reorganization plans also contemplate the addition of flame throwing units, trench bomb units, bomba-dlers and possibly even airplane units. In fact, the aim of the reorganizes would be to establish in the tSate a complete division, completely equipped with representative units of every branch of service known to modern land warfare as developed during the war with Germany. The Berry commission has not made its formal report to Governor Smith yet. but the Governor stated today that he did not expect to find it necessary to ask for any special legislation in order to put through the reorganization scheme as it was his understanding from Gen. Herry that the powers conferred on the Adjutant General by the present statutes were sufficient In scope.

reports that are drifting into the Cap ital. Dry legislators who, under the white banner of reform, voted bravely for the resolution atifying the Constitutional amendment are beginning to feel worried. From all quartersand particularly from the labor elements a murmur of "satisfaction is Legislators here areu nablo to decide just what it means. Some of them are inclined to think that the people never really wanted prohibition at all and that, awakening to the fact slow ly that it is here, they are preparing a tremendous kick. The first definite thing that has developed here to indicate a real anti-dry movement came to light yesterday afternoon.

James P. Holland, president of the State Federation of Labor, appeared in the Capital, corridors with buttons which boro in big black letters, "No Beer Xo Work." He said that 30,000 laborers along the waterfronts of New York harbor were wearing such insignia. Accompanying this and preceding it for several days have been rumored reports of an undercurrent of dissatisfaction In all the big manufacturing districts. On top of them is a movement, finding ila source among labor leaders, to blame all the labor unrest throughout the country onto the prohibition law. Every time a strike situation is discussed, someone slides in the insinuation that the trouble is really the expression of an awakening to the fact that liquor will soon bo unprocurable.

Just what the whole thing means no one seems to know, hut it Is nightly disturbing to the sleep of New York State Legislators these days and many are wondering Just what the result will be. The wels are saying. "I told you the more daring drys answr, "All acceleration." But the fact remains that there are continual evidences of unrest, particularly among labor. Added to this is the apparent readiness of labor leaders to blame all troubles on prohibition. When these facts are placed side by side with the prediction that there will be an enormous army of unemployed before many months, furnishing the basis for more dissatisfaction, and further opportunity to lay the blame on the banishment of John Barleycorn, the resultant situation in prospect is shaking DEATHS.

i ney and Livingston succeeding lhe Rev. James K. Bobier, who died Decern ber IS. 1918. Father O'Brien is one of the leading Roman Catholic educators In the diocese and one of the most energetic priests and civic workers in the Borough of Queens.

His appointment to the important rectorship of the church oit the Heights is considered as a recognition of his achievements In tht diocese. He was for ten years superintendent of parochial schools in Brooklyn, succeeding the Rev. John Belford, D. and the excellent work he accomplished in that office was commented upon by Bishop McDonnell on the occasion of a big celebration at Whitestone on January 8, 1917, com-memorating the twenty-fifth anniversary of the priest's ordination to the priesthood. Prominent citizens of Whitestone and the neighboring districts took part in the public celebration and spoke of tho clergyman's value as a citizen of the community.

One of the speakers was Borough President Connolly. The people of Whitestone on that occasion presented Fr. O'Brien with asilver loving cup as a token of esteem for the interest he had taken in the affairs of the section. Futher O'Brien was born in the parish of St. Charles Borromeo and since his boyhood days has taken a deep interest in the affairs of the section, visiting the church for every special celebration there.

He served at the altar as a boy and celebrated his first mass in the church. He was appointed to tho rectorship of St. Luke's Church in 1005. While Father O'Brien was ut Whitestone many improvements were made in the parish. He installed new ultars, a modern organ, and made several structuarl changes on the church to accommodate the growing congregation.

Ho, built an up-to-dute parochial school, which cost in the neighborhood of (80,000.
