New York, April 1S-Brewers of the New York district took action today intended to speed court determinati tion o1 their claim that beer of 3-4 per cent. alcoholic content may be pro- duced without violating the food con- servation regulations when two of their number began distribution of brew of the strength specified in bar rels bearing labels describing it as 9 n-intoXicating beverage.
 The kegs. sent out without revenue stamps, which the collector had re- fused, carried tags announcing that sums equivalent to the cost of the stamps had been deposited in banks to await the tls.Ifl4 of the government. Attorneys for the brewers, who ad- vised thsh' action, declared that other manufacturers, in New York and else where throughout the country, also would begin distributing.
 The beer shipped here from the Holman and Gambrinus breweries had ] been manufactured since Dec. 1, when by presidential proclamation use of grains for brewing was prohibited, to i be modified early this year by permis- sion to make non intoxicating or near" beer. which the revenue depart ment classified as containing less than one-haf of l per cent. alcoholic con- 1 tent.
 l It was expected that the brewers action would precipitate a move by i the federal authorities intended to
 stop the sale of unstamped beer, thus i bringing into the criminal courts the i manufacturers contention, already raised in civil suits, that the ? 34 pei cent. brew being without the scone

 Speculation as to the arrival of the aviator was varied, but he view held by all those watching for his ad- vent was that nothing tangible would be forthcoming until morning. Mis- haps of all kinds were suggested as possible causes for his delay, includ- ing one that he had fallen into the Irish Channel, owing to the possibility of the long petrol tank of his machine being caught in an adverse wind and the plane somersaulting.

PRESIDENT WILSON MAY
 SAIL HOMEWARD MAY 20

Paris, April 1S.-(By the A. Pit was stated in well informed quarters tonight that the situation of the peace negotiations was such that President Wilson probably would be able to sail homeward May 20, and possibly lit tie oarlier-by May 15.
 The belief was expressed that the president would call an extra session of congress to convene between May 15 and June 1.
 The present indications are that the peace treaty will be signed before the presidents departure. Informa- tion reaching the delegates tends to show that the Germans are not plan ming to take up time and delay the signing of the treaty, as they desire a settlement of the peace terms at the earliest possible moment.

All of us are continuously finding fault, more or less, and on our success in finding the fault and destroying it de- bends mostly our successful develop ment. So in the end it appears that fault-fnding is essentially one of our most constructive activities. One of our worst faults is the hypocritical practice of finding fault with fault f1nding.-F. H.
