BREWERS ATTACK
WASHINGTON LAW
Federal Court is Asked to Restrain
Its Enforcement, And it is Alleged to
Conflict With Constitutional Rights

By the United Press Associations
TACOMA, Dec. 30.-The Seattle
Brewing & Mailing company today
filed an application for a restraining
order against Attorney General Taner
to prevent the enforcement of the pro-
hibition law. 1t is alleged that Taner
threatened to prosecute the liIlJr
manufacturers, and to destroy all goods
made prior to January LIST.
1t is declared that they have stored
$4,000 worth of beer which they can
not ship from the state owing to the
limited time allowed them, and the
brewing company asks the federal
court to restrain the enforcement of
the law until January 16, when it is
claimed they can dispose of the stock.
The complaint alleges that the pro-
hibition law conflicts with corstltu-
tional rights, and further that the
election at which it passed was il
legal because election notices were
improperly published.

IN TECHNICAL WAY
Ii Rejected by Warning Nations,
Terms Will be Modified and
Offered Again
By the United Press Associations.


By the United Press Associations.
STOCKHOLM, Dec. 3O-Members
of the Ford peace party will formulate
tentative peace terms with the assist
ance OF able International lawyers, and
will submit them to the warning pow
ers If they are rejected, they will be
revised and presented again and again
until peace is declared
In announcing the plan Louis
L0chnar, secretary of the expedition,
said:
Three reasons actuate the mem
bers in appealing directly to the bel
1igerents. These are:
First, confidential information has
been obtained by us that some of the
belligerents are ready for peace, al
though officially unwilling to SO ad-
nit, nor can l state at this time
which nations l have reference to.
Second, certain neutral nations
are most anxious for joint action.
Third, such joint action would be
welcomed by belligerents of both
sides.
1--WE confess that the members of
the expedition are not competent to
draw up a peace proposal because OF
inexperience. We represent merely
the peace-loving civilians of the
Il T.
ed to employ, regardless of expense,
the most capable experts in interna-
tional law to draw up tentative peace
proposals on lines most likely to be
agreeable to all concerned
Mr. Ford is thoroughly informed
of this purpose and agrees. 1t will
be some weeks before active steps are
taken, but it will be necessary first
that we reach The Hague and decide
upon a small number of delegates
from each neutral nation. We shall
arrive at Copenhagen on Friday and
will be joined there by the Norwe-
gian, Swedish, and Danish delegates.
"A week later we will arrive at The
Hague and there hope to be joined
promptly by the Dutch, Swiss, and
Spanish delegates. After the dele
gates from each country have been
selected a permanent board will be
formed, the experts will be called in
and the work will begin"
Edward Wavrinsky, liberal MEM
Der of the senate, addressing the ex-
pedition said the peace movement
was most welcome in Europe. He
urged the members to continue their
efforts.

Radium In Cancer Cures.
From the Kansas CITY Star.

Year by year science continues to
drive back the outposts of disease. The
recent report of the great radium In
stitutc of London. the largest insti-
tlsion Of the sort In the world. shows
the progress that mas been made in
the use of radium In the last year.
This comparatively new curative
agent is especially useful in dealing
with superficial cancers of the skin and
with cases that are not easily operable.
1t ls so conveniently handled that II
can get al growths which cannot be
reached by the x-rays. Cancer of the
mouth. or palate. for instance, can be
readily dealt with by radium, for the
patient can take the radium In the
mouth.
One of the interesting achievements
of radium is Its effective treatment OF
those d~isfiguring b~!rthmarks commonly
known as port wine stains" The
case of a porter is reported who had
several times been refused employment
because Of the purple stain on his
cheek. This was made entirely unno-
ticeable by h radium treatment.
OF the TAG cases treated in the Radt-
UNI institute last year. there were 60
apparent cures, while 1913 were reported
improved. OF course. a large humble Of
cases reach such an institution in too
advanced a stage to be remedied.
