The action of Caroline Lowe, a
Chicago woman attorney, in request
ing permission to visit the aliens
after they had been lodged at the
island, is believed to foreshadOW an
attempt to obtain the release of some
of the number on habeas corpus pro-

ton Commissioner Byron II. Uhl de-
clared the aliens had had their day
in court and that no lawyers could
assist them"
The attorney was not permitted
to visit the detention pen because
she failed to show credentials that
the aliens had engaged her as coun-
sci. No visitors without such Gre
dentials will be allowed to visit the
aliens there, according to Commls-
sioner Uhl. Another attorney, who
sought to see the prisoners, was
barred from the island.
The nationalities of the aliens, as
given out by A. d. II. Jackson, chief

LABOR LEADERS START
FINAL CAMPAIGN FOR
BEER AND LIGHT WINE

Washington, June 3.-Labor lead
ers today started a final campaign to
save beer and light wines.
Forecasts of unrest and dissatis-
faction, the nature and results of
which cannot now be predicted
were given the house judiciary com.
mittee which had under consideration
the Volstead bill for enforcement Of
wartime prohibition.
A feeling of serious resentment
against the proposed restrictions is
springing up," the committee was
told by four representatives of the
American Federation of Labor.
Threats of general strikes if beer
is taken away were secuted by the
labor heads. John ]. Manning, presi-
dent of the Union Label Trades De-
partment of the American Fedora.
tion of Trades, declared he could not
conceive Of "any sane man taking the
stand of mo beer, no work."
"But can conceive of just in.
dignation against this proposed in
vasion of rights" ne continued. "It
is an attempt to take away something
which won't hurt US when beer and
light wines are denied us. You can't
regulate mems appetites with legis.
lation."
Manning declared that union la.
Dor believed congress might elimi.
nate beer and light wines from the
wartime prohibition order as the
president had suggested. In doing
this, he said, "you won't have to
jump so many hurdles when it comes
to enforcing the prohibition amend
ment."

in advance" To Barnes he said: "We'll
send you down in the automobile to-
night, provided it has survived the
day. We're expecting the poor thing
to die in its tracks at almost any in
stant."
Ten minutes later Barnes passed
through the portals Of Green Fancy.

Barnes was not in position to
doubt the fellows word, for the car
Enthusiastically had gone on toward
Hornville. He waited few minutes
after the man disappeared up the mar
row stairway, and then proceeded to
test his powers of divination. He was

from the direction of Hornville.
Lighting a cigarette he strolled out
side. He had barely time to take q
position at the darkened end OF the
porch before tie sounds of an ap-
preaching machine came to his ears. A
second or two later the lights swung
around the bend in the road a quar-
ter of a mile above Hart's Tavern,
and down came the car at high rate
of speed. 1t dashed past the tavern
with a great roar and rattle and shot
off into the darkness beyond. AS it

In front of the tavern Barnes succeed

view of the car. That glance was
enough, however. He would have

the day before.

instance he allowed himself another

from or delivered one to the occupant

WEIGHING EGGS.
ATLANTA Journel.)

It was very funny, in an old 1tal
ian play, when a miser swore that he
would buy no more eggs unless they
were too large to go through GER
tain ring that he established as
standard. But that miser had the
right hunch. There are hotel stew
ards in this country now that use a
similar test, rejecting all eggs that
will not pass through a ring an inch
and a half in diameter.
This test, however, is not perfect,
since it concerns form rather than
substance long egg may pass
through the ring while a short egg
that is really of the same volume
will not. The only dependable stand
ard, according to experts is weight;
and there is a growing demand that
eggs shall be sold by weight as most
other kinds of foods are, instead of
by the dozen.
The absurdity Of the present sys-
tenn is obvious. There is an informal
sort of agreement that an egg ought
to weigh two ounces, thus running a
pound and a half to the dozen; but
this rule has no binding force, and is
seldom observed in practice. One
egg may weigh an ounce and half
and another two ounces and a half,
and yet both are sold at so much a
dozen, as if the number were the
main thing.
AS a writer suggests in current
magazine, a butcher might as well
sell chops at so much apiece regard
less of size.
The size of an egg varies accord
ing to the breed of the hen, accord
ing to the individual hens age, &C
cording to the feeding, the time of
year and the freshness or staleness
of the egg. In "selected eggs" there
may be a rough attempt at giving de-
finite value for a definite price, but
it does look as if the only really fair
method is to seel them by the pound.

straight through his body. He was
