AUCUR NO AUCUR

In Newport News 1t Was.
But in Washington They
Shift the Barrel.

In the "sanctum sanctorum" of
Capt. Colin Z. E. F'lather, of the First
precinct. in solitary majesty stands
a big solemn thirty-gallon barrel of
pure Melvale whisky.
As the guests go into the Office
daily they look longingly at this
barrel while Capt. FIather begins
a monologue on prohibition.
A frequent visitor noticed yester-
day that the barrel does not always
stand in the same position, 1t is in
the extreme corner, during the
morning. and is moved out from the
wall in the afternoon, while it is
still further out in the evening.
Tough, Isn't 1t.
Explanation was sought. Where
on Capt. Flather expounded: Since
the drought I have been afraid of
an occurrence like that which took
place in Newport News, after bar
rel of whisky was dumped on the
dock. 1t was contraband. So the
revenue officers awaited it's claimant
with handouts.
After ten days of continuous watch
ing, when no one had shown up for
the liquor, It was decided not to wait
for them any longer.
They went to move the barrel and
found a neat little auger hold in the
bottom. Some one had gone under the
dock in a row boat and extracted the
juice.
I'VE have a cellar here" he con-
cluded, $50"

ticular barrel never will be an au-

CITIZENS UNITE
FOR CHEAP FOOD
Cooperative Committee Is
Named to Investigate Eng
lish System Of Buying.

Clashes in the Citizens Food
Council were brought to a head last
night in the organization of the
peoples cooperative committee, un-
der the leadership of DR.. Luther
whitmer. Connecticut Avenue Citi-
zens' Association delegate to the
food council and organizer of the
cooperative store in the Bureau of
Standards.
The new organization has been
formed to study methods of CO.
operation, especially the Rochedale
system of cooperative buying, now
in vogue in England.
Mrs. Annie Riley Hale. national
organizer of the Cooperative
League of America, explained this
system and experiments made
abroad. She stated that the system
had met with such success in Eng
land that there had been a profit OF
over 500, 100000 during the past
year. $35.000;000 of which had been
spent on education and the re-
mainder returned to the consumer.
How the scheme had worked in
the United States was described by
f. p. Rosenthal, OF Portland, Ore
and Benjamin F. Lindus.
f. II. Ward. of the Park View Citi-
zens' Association, objected to the
formation of the new organiza tion
on the grounds that a similar or
ganization with a similar purpose
already existed. He declared that
the members of the new organiza-
tion would lay themselves open tC
suspicion as to their motives.
Mrs. Hale declared that any sys-
tenn that worked was better thar
none at all and action better thar
inaction. She suggested that the
citizens of the community be giver
an opportunity to compare the sys-
