WANTS S500,OOO,0OO,. TOF FORCE DRY MEASURE
Expect Bill for Prohibition to Pass
the Senate Before the Close Of the
Present Week.

Congress started today on 4 clean
up for Christmas. The House continu-
ed the consideration OF routine bust
ness at high speed and the Senate
did its bes; on general legislation,
with the bill to make the District Of
Columbia dry" AT the head Of the
list.
Present plans Of congressional lead
ers call for holiday recess from Fri
day to Tuesday, January ,, But both
Senators and Representatives will
begin the holiday exodus early in the
week, and by Friday it is expected
that majority Of both houses will
be away from Washington. Action on
President Wilson's legislative pro-
gram, including his recommendations
for railroad legislation, will be post
poned by both houses until after the
recess.
Meantime. the fight for prohibition
will occupy the center Of the congress
siOnal stage. Senate dry advocates
are determined to force the Sheppard
bill to make Washington dry" to
vote as soon rs possible, and bcfor"
the week is out they feel certain that
the measure will go through the Seu

ONE HUNDRED THOUSAND TONS
Of Fertilizer Shipped from AleXan-
ria Yearly by its Several Fertiliz-
er Manufacturing Firms.

The fact that over one hundred
thousand tons of fertilizers arc ship
ped from Alexandria each year by the
various fertilizer manufactures To-
Gated here makes the following artl-
Gle relative to car shortage Of espec-
ial interest just at this time.
On September first there was car
shortage in the Uited States of 49,
900; October first, $4,000; November
first. lOS,OO00; December first. ap-
proximately 10000, with the prob
ability that shipping conditions will
continue to become worse from week
to week. Nearly ninety per cent. of
the four million five hundred thous-
and tons of fertilizer used by farm
ers in the spring season has in the
past year, been congested in 4 ship
ping season of just about six to eight
weeks length.
Three Hundred Thousand Cars
Required.
The spring shipments of fertilizer
reopire three hundred thousand rail
road cars. Indications point to great
" increased demand for fertilizers
this spring on account of the higher
prices for farm products and the
greater profits from investments in
fertilizer. 1t will be absolutely i'm
possible for the railroads to furnish
that number Of cars this spring fo1
moving the spring fertilizer if they
are congested in such a short period
of time this season as they have beer
in past years. This year the co-opera
tion of the farmers with the rail
roads and dealers is necessary. The
fertilizer shipments will be movec
promptly and will reach the farm
ers in plenty of time, if orders arr
made early and early shipments start
ed, thereby relieving the congestion
and extending the length of the ship
ping, period The ordering Of as nes,
a maximum Quantity of average, GO
pscity Of cars as possible instead. O.

Walcott in u Conference says Ameri-
ca Should Act for the Relief OF
The Nom Combattants in Europe.

Frederick C.. Walcott, Of New York
| who recently Investigated conditions
I m Poland and Belgium for the Rookie.
ielic. / olmdat.cn. told Il number OF
Senator's and representatives who
net last nigh. at the home Of Miss
Mabel 7 ECartiman, Of the Red Cross
in Wash 'neton. that fund Of $780,
100000 collected il this country and
offered for relief of noncombatantS
N Europe would be Il powerful peace
influence at this time. He said such
III act would tend to create popular
demonstrations for peace among civil
ian populations of warning nations,
because they would be anxious for the
assistance in rehabilitating their
homes and restoring normal living
conditions.
Mr.. Wacott suggested that fund
of that size should he raised by COM
bined popular subscriptions and con-
gressional appropriations. Consid-
ering the wealth Of the United States.
he declared it WAS not an eXorbitant
sum to give. Since 1914, the estimat-
I'd aggregate accommodating income has
been $4,000, 100000 and the combin-
ed offerings for war sufferers has
amounted to $4,000, 900. or one-twen-
tieth of l per cent Of the income.
With forwarding the notes Of the
central powers proposing peace pro-
posals, official and diplomatic quar-
ters are now awaiting with the pro-
foundest interest some word indicat.
ing what nature of replies may be ex-
pected from the entente powers.
President Wilson, it was indicated
at the White House, yesterday is
waiting for the speech to be deliver
cd in the House of Commons by the
new British Prime Minister, Lloyd
George, before taking any further ac-
tiOn in behalf of peace. The next
move is up to the allies, and it is the
view Of administration officials, that
nothing could be gained now by the
presentation of any suggestions or
offers on the part of the United States
government.
Intimations that the German offer
to discuss peace would not be tiatly
rejected by the allies have been re-
ceived in Washington. While thes"
were Of an informal nature. they
were sufficiently strong to convince
the President that a more opportune
occasion for action BY this govern
ment would, in all probability. be pre-
sented after the receipt Of the allied
answer to the German note.

minimum cars of fifteen tons which
is usually customary, will also help
relieve the situation. This is a year
when a supply of plantfood is most
needed for greater production of food
stuffs and greatest farm profits, The
railroads can only spare limited num-
Der of railroad cars for fertilizer ship
ments. The period just before the
coming of spring is one Of their great
est rush seasons.
Farmers who order their fertiliZ-
ers early will enable the railroads to
move them before the rush season
opens and the cars can be unloaded
and used several times and for sew
eral hauls instead of one. This will
help out the railroads, the dealers
the manufacturers and will insure 4
supply of fertilizers in year when
on account of high prices for farm
products fertilizers are going to pay
bigger profits on the investment than
ever before. The shipping of ferti.
lizers early is of advantage to the
farmer in other ways. not only to be
assured OF a supply Of plantfood
ready for use when needed. but he
can haul them to his farm before the
rush of spring work starts. Early
ordering will help everybody.

is religious liberty
In the year 162 before the present
era, the Syrian king, Antiochus Epi-
phanes, set up statue of pagan
deity in the Jewish Temple of Jer;l-
salem, and tried to compel the Jews
to worship it and abandon their own
historic faith. This effort at forcing
an alien religion upon the Jewish
people provoked a bitter revolt in
which the Jews, led by the famous
Judas Maccabeus and his brothers,
finally defeated the Syrian armies,
re-entered the Temple and rededi-
Gated it as the center Of Jewish wor-
ship. In honor Of this rededicatlon.
the feast of Channukah ,(dedicatlon)
was established. its eight days to be
holidays, days of song and thanks
giving.
The holiday is marked by special
prayer of thanks and psalms OF
praise inserted into the daily ritual
and by the kindling of the Channukah
lights. The usual custom is to light
one light on the first day. two on
the second. three on the third, and
so on. adding one each successive
dav of the feast. AS to the reason
for this custom of kindling the lights
legend tells that when Judas Macca'
beus and his victorious army rededl'
Gated the Temple and cleansed it OF
all the impurities of idolatry, De
found that there was only enough
pure oil to keep the perpetual ligl:t
, burning for. one day. and it woult
i, he long before new oil could be pro
cured. But miraculously, this small
amount Of oil. lasted for eight days
and the perpetual.-lighE was. not ex
tinguished. !. For this reason: it. wa

The Jewish date for the bcginnln"
of this feast is the twcntyfifth OF thl
month of Kislev. According to ono
tradition. the reason that Judas So
lpcted this date is because it fell cX-
ac,lv three years after Antiochu-
had defiIcd the Temple: according
TO another tradition it is because that
was also the day when the raelites
