BREWERS WAGE WAR ON
ANTAGONISTIC FIRMS
Corporations Favoring Pro-
hibition Blacklisted by
~ Beer Interests.

Washington, Nov. 2O.-War waged
by brewers against antagonistic bust
ness houses and individuals was given
special attention today by the senate
committee investigating beer propa-
ganda and the purchase Of the Wash
ington Times.
Some of the firms mentioned as
listed for attack because of their
prohibition tendencies were the
Cadillac, Packard and REQ automo-
bile companies; the John Wanamaker
Company, the H. J. Heinz Company,
the American Rolling Mills of Mid
dletown, Ohio; the Fox Typewriter
Company; the Maryland and Balti-
more Casualty Company, Proctor and
Gamble, and the Grasselli Chemical
Company of Cleveland.
Hugh H. Fox, secretary of the
United States Brewers association,
was questioned by Major +. L. Humes
conducting the examination for the
committee The witness, though
denying that the association had
attempted a boycott identified many
letters and circulars sent to members
regarding the anti-beer attitude of
certain firms and persons.
My memory is that [ acted as q
sort of intermediary in this NATTER"
said Mr. Fox IT think it was the
intention of our association rather to
give preference to those who were
our friends do not think the
association took any action to cause
a boycott
You had on your unfair or black
list some of the biggest firms in the
country" interposed Senator Over
man, Including the Cadillac Com
pany and the Wanamaker Company"
"The Cadillac company actually
was the leader in the fight against us
in their community the witness re-
piled.
The action against the Heinz COM
pany followed the election Of H. j.
Heinz of Pittsburg as president of the
Pennsylvania State Sunday School as
sociatton, at the convention of which
prohibition sentiments were ex-
pressed, according to a letter which
Fox said he wrote.
Another letter showed that the Am
erican Rolling Mills, was listed be-
cause of a poster against the use of
liquor by it's employees.
Mr. Fox did not recall having list
ed the Western Union Telegraph COM
pany because Of its rule requiring to-
tai abstinence on the part of its en-
ployes.
Once during the questioning the
witness left the stand to consult his
attorney. Returning again he denied
that there had been bOycotting.
In the case Of the Grassell COM
panv an official of that concern was
referred to as having been active in
support of an evangelist

Terrible Toll of Death
I From Enemy.

Archangel, (By the Associated
Press,) Thursday, Nov. 14.-The Boil
shevik forces along the Dvina, their
infantry attacks having been repused,
today were bonrbarding the Russo
Allied positions on the left bank Of
the river at Tulgas. The allied artil-
lery is resisting vigorously
AS long as the enemy gunboats are
able to move the Americans and Brit
ish are combating great odd. But
the enemy infantry is no match for
the allies, the BOlshevik losses in kill
ed, wounded and captured being at
least five time that Of the allies.
In their attack on November II the
Bolsheviki advanced to the gun posi-
tions of the Canadian artillery. The
guns continued to fire at point blank
range and the ground before them
soon was heaped with enemy dead.
The allied infantry then counter at
tackled and swept the Bolsheviki back
into the forest, where patrols pursued
them throughout the night. The
enemy losses on that day were ex-
ceptionally heavy, while those of the
allies were small.
The Bolshevil1 bombardment con-
tinued on the 18th, but the American
and British troops repulsed all in
fantry attacks and drove the enemy
back into the swamps and the forest.
Airplanes obtained several direct hits
on Bolshevik gunboats in the river.

FIFTH LIBERTY LOAN
EXPECTED BY SPRING
New Bonds Will Mature i'm
From Three to Eight
Years.

Washington, Nov. 20.-Government
war bond selling in the future will be
along distinctly new lines. Bonds will
have short maturities, and Secretary
McAdoo explained today that by this
is ne cant from three to seven or eight
years. In addition, issues will be
smaller than in the past and probably
will be marketed more continuously.
War savings organizations through
out the country viii assist in placing
the bonds, Mr. McAdoo said, in more
direct manner than in past liberty
loan campaigns. The 4 IA per cent.
interest rate borne by the last two
issues of liberty bonds may be
of the securities.
Amounts of future issues interest
rates and time of marketing cannot
be determined for another month or
two, but the heavy over-subscription
of the Fourth liberty loan, with a
total of $6,9S9, 9,047,0O0, or 16.4S per
cent. more that the six billions sought,
will enable the treasury to postpone
the next issue longer than otherwise
1t is still expected by spring
National managers of the war saw
ings movem ent conferred today over
savings and liberty loan committees
in each locality in preparation for the
next issue of bonds.
