M'REYNOLDS DISSENTS

Justice McReynoids said in dissenting
 .'The Reed amendment in no prope" sense regulates interstate commerce, but is a direct intermeddling with the state internal affairs. Whether regarded as reward or punishment for wisdom or folly in enacting limited prohibition, the amendment so construed, l think, goes beyond federal power; and to hold other wise open possibilities for partial ana sectional legislation. which may destroy proper control of their own affairs by the several states. If Congress may deny liouor to those who live in state sim plv because it's manufacture is not per mitted there. why may not this be done for any suggested reason namely pe- cause the roads are bad or men are hanged. for murder or coais are aug Where is the limit? The Reed amend. ment as now construed is eongressional fiat, imposing more complete prohipi- tion. wherever the state has assumed to prevent manufacture or sale of intoM- cants. f

THRIVES ON STARVATION

'Bolshevism thrives only on starvation and disorder" declared MT. White, who said it was impossible to inaugurate the peace conference under proper auspices without previous adequate provisions to cope with the food situation.
 MT. Sherley informed the House that an interallied council composed Of two representatives each from Great Britain, France, Italy and the United States, will supervise the food distribution, but this statement did not satisfy opponents ot the bill Representative Gillett of Mass achusetts, republican, said the policy proposed might cost a billion dollars; Representative Shell of New York. re- publican, wanted to know exactly how the money was to be spent, and Repre- sentative Gordon of Ohio asserted that no information was given that the fund was needed to promote peace. Repre- sentative Slayden of Texas, democrat, also spoke against the measure.
 HOOVER EXPENSIVE LUXURY
 References to Food Administrator Hoover caused Representative Wood of Indiana, republican, to declare MT Hoover "the most expensive luxury ever fastened on this country and he of- fered an amendment to put the Red Cross in charge of the food relief. It was de- feated.
 Representative Good of Iowa, repup- lioan, declared the President had vio- lated the law by turning over s5,OO0,OOO of government money for organization Of the war trade boards Russian bureau. which, he declared, was more visionary than the Hudson Bay company.
 Chairman Sherley gave half the time allotted to advocates of the measure to former Speaker Cannon, who apportioned it among republicans favoring the bill. Among those who spoke were Republican Leader Mann. Magge, New York; Mon dell, Wyoming; Temple. Pennsylvania; Stafford Wisconsin; McCulloch, Ohio, and Laguardia, New York. MT. Cannon was applauded by the democrats when he recalled that Congress once votes $500 900 for the relief of Italian earth quake sufferers at the request of Presi- dent Roosevelt
 Supporting the measure on the final roll call were 152 democrats. s repub' licans, and five others, while voting against it were 62 republicans, demo- crata and two others.

The roof of the wrecked coach vr- tually covered the engine of the ex- press train. When the wreckage was partially cleared the bodies of the dead and injured were found jammed be- tween the wheels Of the local and in the seats. The bodies of the seven dead were speedily collected in coach that had been standing on siding and taken to the hospital at Ambier.
 Shortly after the wreck Charles A. Moore. in charge of the state police at Ambler. arrived with troopers and d- rected the work of caring for the vic tims. The tracks for some distance were searched and Ralph Huff, 35. of North Wales was found on the engine been thrown by the collision. Huff re- ceived severe burns and his body was badly scalded by live steam.
 As soon as the news of the wreck reached Philadelphia first aid parties, consisting of physicians and nurses from local hospitals were on their way to the scene in automobiles.

DRY STATE LAWS
 ARE NULLIF|ED BY
 REED AMENDMENT
Statutes Permitting the I'm portation of Limited Quan- titles of Intoxicants Held
 Unconstitutional
By Associated Press

Washington. January 13-stnt-
 utes of "dry" states permitting
 persons to import or personally
 bring in limited amounts of intoxI-
 eants for their own use were in
 effect nullified by the so-caIIed
 Reed "bone-dry" amendment en-
 acted by Congress. the supreme
 court held today in an opinion re-
 versing the federal court for the
 southern district of West vir-
 ginia.
 Justice McReynolds, in a dissenting opinion in Which Justice Clarke; cons cured, held that the Reed amendment was not an interstate commerce regu- latory measure, but a direct meddling with state affairs and as such purely beyond the power of the federal gov ernment.
 The case camelup on an appeal of the government from the lower court de- cision dismissing proceedings brought against Dan Hill for carrying quart of liquor into West Virginia for his personal use as permitted by the state law. The trial court held that such transportation did not come within the meaning of the Reed amendment which it held, was intended to apply only to actual shipments of liquor. The su- preme court remanded the case for re-
 
 trial
 JUSTICE DAYS OPINION
 In rendering the majority opinion, Jus tice Day said:
 Tn view of the authority of Congress over the subject matter and the enact ment of previous legislation embodied in the Wilson and Webb Kenyon laws we have no question that Congress enacted this statute because of intoxicating liquors for beverage purposes, the facili- ties of interstate commerce should be denied to the introduction of intoxicants by means of interstate commerce, ex- cept for the lmited purpoes permitted in the statutes which have nothing to do with liquor when used as d beverage.
 That the state saw fit to permit the introduction of liquor for personal use in limited quantity in nowise interferes with the authority of Congress, acting under it's plenary power over interstate commerce to make prohibition against interstate shipment contained in this act. It may exert it's authority in the Wilson and Webb Kenyon acts, having in view the laws of the state, but it has power of it's own. which in this in- stance it has exerted in accordance with it's view of public policy.
 When Congress exerts it's authority in a matter within it's control state laws must give way in View of the regulation of the subject matter by the superior power conferred by the constitution.

PRESIDENTS APPEAL READ

President Wilson's urgent appeal that the appropriation be authorized to aid the consummation of peace was sent to Senator Martin and Representative Sher- ley, chairman of the congressional ap- propriation committees, and was read on the floor of the House by Mir. Sherley. It was supplemented by q report to the state department from Henry D. White, republican member of the American peace delegation. Both messages said the problem of supplying food to the dis tressed peoples recently liberated from the rule of the central powers was one of paramount importance in obtaining return to normal conditions.
 Food relief is now the key to the whole European situation and to the solution of peace" MT. Wilson said. "Bolshevism fs steadily spreading westward. It can. not be stopped by force, but it can be stopped by food"
 The President added that unless the tide of anarchism' is stemmed, it may not be possible to find definite govern mentS with which to conclude peace.

LONDON CLUBS COST MORE

(From the Manchester Guardian.
 There is little doubt that before long all the London clubs will have raised their subscriptions. The Rag" has raised it's subscription one guinea The Athenaeum has increased from eight to ten guineas. The Caledonian has has almost doubled its entrance fee. The Saville Club, founded by Sir Sid ney Colvin, the intimate friend of Robert Louis Stevenson, is contem- plating raising it's subscription from seven to ten guineas. As the character of this club is literary and artistic two qualities which tradition does not associate with opulence-some of the older members question the wisdom of the proposed change.
 Nor with the increase in subscrip ton at the Athenaeum carried with out debate Members who had long remained in rural retreat are said to have visited London on the occasion of the annual general meeting called to decide the matter, and 8 select com mittee has been appointed to consider what improvements can be effected in the club in view of the increased sub- scription.

SIDE-LINE BEEKEEPING

There are only few commercial
beekeepers in the state west Of the
Cascades, but these few are max
ing money on their investment.
Here on Vashon Island we are
all side-liners. We keep a few col
onies for the honey and for the
fun there is in fooling with the
bees. 1t is real fun, too, for bees
are the most interesting thing in
the insect kingdom the only crea-
lures so far discovered that will
work for man without pay and
board themselves. They gather
their stores from the neighbors
fields, and instead of injuring him
they are a benefit, because they in.
terpolinate his fruit trees and give
him better fruit. No stock needs
less care. From October until
April 18th they require absolutely
no care if they have ample stores
of honey.
In order to enjoy the manipula.
ton of few colonies and to gel
good results, we must have the
right kind of bees. With the ex-
ception of my little home apiary.
and the little apiary at the North
End, all the bees on yashon Is
land are blacks, with here and
there a colony that has dash Of
Italian blood in it, and these are
known as hybrids. They may have
one yellow band, OF two, some
times, and be all black in the same
hive These hybrids are the most
vicious and nervous of the whole
apis family. When a hive is open
ed and a comb taken out they will
run hither and thi;her, drop off at
the corners. They are very irri-
table, and viii sting viciously, oft

black queens are hard to find ;they
will hide il they can. They do not
resist the wax moth or the ordi-
nary bee diseases.
Pure Italians, however, are very
gentle. stay on the combs when a
frame is taken ont, and keep on
about their business. The queen
may be seen depositing eggs, and
being yellow is easily found. They
are very industrious and viii
gather more honey than the blacks
and range twice as far, They are
disease resistent, and a wax moth
cannot live in hive of Italians.
Many breeders in the United
States have been developing this
Italian race during the past 80
years by selection, until at the
present time we have queens that
are as far superior to those of fiji
ty years ago as are the best pedi-
greed COWS to the scrubs. These
queens will lay 1900 eggs per day
and some more than that. Such
queens can now be purchased from
many reliable breeders for $l.50 to
So 90 each.

Bee Pasturage

Our honey fora on the Island
are constantly increasing. We are
very fortunate in having several
varieties of willows to give our
bees an early start. Our western
pussy willow, known in the botany
as Salix Scouleriana, has com
menced blooming the past three
years between February 10th and
the 18th. If the weather is such
that the bees can fly, they get both
pollen and honey from this. This
variety is followed by Salix Sit
ehensis. "A beautiful variety, con
spicuous for its large catlSins and
the considerable size of the tree.
II, too, yields both honey and poll
en-, and you will he rewarded by
looking il up and in seeing how the
bees work on it. We have this
one followed by SalixLaevitaga, a
broad-leaved variety, which also
furnishes pollen and honey. These
willows bloom until the end of
March, and are a wonderful help
to the bees in rearing broods.
We have a greater variety Of
plants yielding honey and pollen
than any section east of the Rock
les. but not in such quantity as
they get from Eastwood, white
clover, sweet clover and buck
wheat. However, you win notice
that white clover is coming in
everywhere. Farmers are also
planting Alsike clover which is as
good honey plant as the white.
