Move Very Important.
Officials here regarded the rate
reductions as tremendously important
in building up foreign trade which
must be routed through Pacific coast
seaports. The department of COM
merce and the railroad administration
have had hundreds of appeals from
Industrial leaders for lower rates, bas-
ing their arguments on the fact that
unless they We're given aid through re
duced transportation charges they
could not compete with European man
ufacturers. Their arguments have
been particularly insistent since the
armlStlce was signed. In the HgHt Ior
rate reduction, Secretary Redfield has
taken a decided stand favoring the
move.
1t vas pointed out in communication
to the department of that a
large majority of the articles sold in
the Far East are manufactured in the
eastern half of the United States.
Through ocean rates from Atlantic
ports are regarded as prohibitive SO
far as competing with Europe is COP
Ncerned. The only road open then to
r~e-establish the trade lost through war
regulations was to haul the traffic
across the United States, it was eX-
planned that the new rates represent
a substantial reduction in the hand
haul. Trans-Pacific rates We're cut by
the shipping board two months ago.

WHAT WILL THE GOVERNMENT
DO WITH BONDED LIQUORP

Now that prohibition is an accom-
plished fact, Uncle Sam has knotty
problem on his hands that is giving
him much concern. He is confront
ed with a dilemma that only the U.
S. Supreme Court can lend hand
in helping him out. and from this
high tribunal he asks an early de-
cision as to what he is to do with
the 67,OOO,O0O gallons of alcoholic
beverages stored in the bonding
warehouses thruout the country.
The subject raises nj e
point of law. The bonded liquor
was manufactured with the consent
and under the control of the govern
ment and constitutes legitimate
property. The Fifth Amendment to
the Constitution prohibits the U. S.
form taking private property with
out Just compensation. The distill-
cries demand either the right to sell
their property or compensation for
IL from the government. what VIII
the Supreme Court say? Will it
authorize the lifting Of wartime pro
hibition sOt hat bonded liquor maY
be sold to the public? Can the gov
ernment destroy the bonded liquor
with or without compensation? Or
can it take it over and dispose of it
for legitimate purposes, thru gov
ernment dispensaries, in years to
come? If the liquor is destroyed
the government will lose 1855, 900,
900 in taxes. The equity in the case
as pronounced by any decision the
Court may make, will largely affect
the course of Congress, by which
the policy of the government toward
this forbidden liquid is determined

STORING VEGETABLES

It is time to begin putting the

While sweet potatoes can be stor-

fully it is generally more satisfac-
tory to store them in the attic near
a hue where il will be warm and
dry, In a dry cellar or in a similar
place. Wrapping each potato in pa
per or packing in dry dirt or wheat
char helps keep the potatoes warm
and dry.
Irish potatoes need only TO be
protected from freezing by storing
in frost proof cellar or in the
ground. From now on they can be
taken from the ground and stored
Immediately il dug when the dirt
is dry.
Beets and carrots keep better
when piled up on the ground, COW
cred with leaves. hay or straw and
then covered with enough dirt to
prevent freezing. This is the way
potatoes are covered
Turnips are covered in the same
way as beets and carrots except
that they need not be covered as
deeply. In fact some claim that
they keep better If Just we'll covered
with straw or hay that is we'll
weighted down to keep it from
blowing away.
Cabbage should not be harvest
ed until a hard freeze threatens.
Then IL may be taken up and the
heads set upside down in a shallow
trench. Straw is then put around
them and dirt piled on until it will
prevent freezing. II the heads are
immature, they may be bent over
towards the north until they touch
the ground and covered over we'll
with dirt. They will bleach andd
grow some.
Parsnips and satisfy are best left
in the ground where grown until
