a distinctly sinister parsonage. whose

WEBB LAW
Has No Penalties But Puts 1t
Up to States to Arrest
Liquor.

WASHINGTON, D. c., Mar. s.
President Iaft's veto OF the Webb
Kenyon bill prohibiting the inter-
state shipment of intoxicating liquors
into any state in which that liquor is
to be used in violation of the state
laws, was overrldden by the House
of Representatives on Saturday. The
vote was 246 to s5.
The vote in the Senate rejecting
the veto was So to 81. The passage
of the Webb Kenyon bill over the
veto made it effectivs as federal
law Immediately.
The new statute applies to the
shipments into Maryland or into any
wet or local option state, as lwell as
10 shipment into any dry state.
1t is not restricted in its scope to
shipments only into prohibition
states but into any state if the liquor
is intended by any person interested
therein to be received, possessed.
sold or in f.1y manner used, either in
the original package or otherwise, in
violation Of any law of such state,
territory or district of the United
States into which 1t may have been
shipped by Interstate commerce.
IL the state of Maryland should
pass law prohibiting the receipt OF
liquor by, social club, then under
the Webb-Kenyon law any liquor in
tended to be SO received by that club
in Maryland would be Invested of its
interstate character and would be
just to the laws of Maryland. No
penalty is provided by the Webb
Kenyon law. The plan OF operation
will be for the state INTO which the
liquor is alleged to have been ship
Iped in violation of the state law to
seize or arrest" the liquor under
under authority of the police powers
in accordance with the laws OF the
state, and take it before jury" fol
trial. Ifthe liquor is found guilty
lit may be handled as directed by the
laws Of the state and the federal
government would not protect the
government against any action which
the state sees fit to take.

CHANGER.
Danger Of white Lead.

Occupation is undoubtedly the
most importfnt factor in causing
lead poisoning; and among the occu-
patlons the most dangerous are those
in which lead is freely handled. This
applies particularly to working IN
white lead and lead colors. The
grinding Of white lead with oil was
formerly a larg source of lead pols-
Gang, because the pigment was dry,
consequently the grinding mill at
tendants and the lead work labor
ers Inhaled lead dust; but since in
many factories the paint is now made
with the lead N the moist state, by
the gradual displacement of the
moisture with oil during the process
OF grinding, the source of danger has
decreased.
The danger incidental to the man
ufacture of red lead is extremely Sc
rious. The Journal of the American
Medical Association quotes recent
writer in one of the trade journals
and reports that a large decrease in
plumbism in the manufacture or
white lead has followed the abolition
Of female labor and youthful labor IN
England. The decrease is also con-
sequent on ventilation, the use of
respiratcrs, oyeralls. enforced clean
illness efnd the avoidance of lead dust.
No material increase in the cost of
manufacture has resulted, but death
and suffering have been ayerted. 1t
IS always gratifying to learn of prog
ress in combating occupation disease,
especially when, as in the lead in
dustries, 1t has been SO difficult to
induce those employed to cooperate
to their own sanitary advantage.

WALLACE, Mar. 5.-This place has
had two fires within a recent date,
the first being M D. Martins store
at Rinehart which burned early Sum
day morning. Just how the fire start
ed is unknown but before 1t was dis
covered the flames were under such
great Roadway that IT was impos-
sible TO get control of 1t and it was
only the faithful work of the bucket
brigade which formed Immediately
after the alarm that saved Mr.. Mar
tins home, which is close to the store.
The loss is estimated at $4,000, part
ly covered by insurance.
The second fire was the home of J.

CAPITAL POLICE Do
NOT NEED SHIELDS

Police of the cities of the United
States in general and those Of Wash
ington in particular are not in need of
armor to protect them from bullets and
other dangers, but they do need i'm
proved uniforms which will better pro-
tect their health and give more comfort
while at the same time affording the
necessary protection from the elements
This, in substance, was the statement
Of Major Sylvester. Superintendent of
Police, when asked his opinion regard
ing bullet proof shields for the police on
the lines proposed by Scotland Yard, in
London.
The major recalled the fact that
few years ago a sO-called bullet proof
vest was heralded as filling a long
felt want in the regular equipment of
policemen On duty. The vest consisted
OF steel links. 1t was tried in Wash
ington, and in almost every other city,
but II was not adopted because there
was no real need for it.
What the police do need. and where
thfre is room for improvement and in
" tive genius, Is a better type OF
uL-form," said Major Sylvester. We
must have a quality Of cloth that will
stand exposure and rain; that will not
hard TO find except with very heavy
materials or in expensive fabrics. The
policeman is already loaded down with
enough equipment without having to
lug a big shield around. Improve his
uniform from the standpoint of health
and comfort, but don't give him more
weight to carry"

SPECTATORS HALT
FORT|F|CAT|ON PLAN

The plans for fortifying the mouth Of
Chesapeake Bay, affording protection to
Washington, Baltimore, and other near
by points. have been halted by the de-
mands of land spectators, who want
Uncle Sam to pay big prices for the
land upon which the new fort and its
big guns would stand.
This is the information which has
reached War Department officials. and
which has been communicated inform
ally to members of the House Appro-
priations Committee. which recently set
aside money for fort at Cape Henry.
It was planned BY the subcommittee
on Notifications Of the House Appro-
priations Committee that a great fort
should be constructed on the lower
Chesapeake. In the blanket appropria-
ton for fort sites was included 800, 900
may cost, when completed, about 81, 900, =
O1O When land spectators learned OF
the plans Of the Government they boost
ed the price of holdings in the neighbor-
hood Of the proposed fort, and the sl0O,-
600 is now found insufficient to purchase
the site.
Chairman Sherley. Of the approprIa-
tons subcommittee, is opposed to any
''hold-up" by the land spectators, and
Congress may delay building the fort
until the prices of land become more
reasonable, or II may decide upon con-
demnation proceedings. The matter Is
now under advisement among army Of
Ulcers ard members of Congress.
