Department Of Justice Announce Lit
eral Enforcement of Law will be
Made.
New York, April 24.-The govern
ment proposed literal enforcement of
the wartime prohibition act, including
ban on production and sale Of all
beers and wines, whether or not
they are intoxicating, the department
Of justice announced through special
representative in the federal court
here today. =.
While no steps will be taken to pre-
vent brewing, pending a court deter
mination Of the laws constitutionality
raised by brewers of the New York
district, manufacturers will operate
in peril Of future prosecution, accor-
ding to the statement Of William C.
Fits, special counsel, appearing for
attorney General Palmer in the beer
litigation.
The attorney advised Judge A. N.
Hand, who heard arguments on the
governments motion to dismiss the
suit brought on behalf Of thenational
brewers by the Hoffman Brewers Co.
to restrain the federal authorities
from interfering with it's production
of 3-4 per cent beer, that the de-
partment of Justice did not know and
did not care whether beer of the
| strength indicated was Intoxicating.
The law prohibited sale after June
30, Of distilled beverages as well as
manufacture after April 20, and sale
| after June the 80, Of beer" wine and
other intoxicating malt or vinous
liquors for beverage" pending the de-
mobilization Of the military forces, he
said. The words "beer' and "wine"
were not qualified, in the opinion Of
the government, he added, and the ap-
parent congressional intention to stop
the waste" Of grains and fruits in
their production in any strength would

"Hearts of the World" Coming.

Hearts Of the World" the D. w.
Griffith production that required eigh-
teen months in the making and which
is declared to be the masterpiece Of
this dramatic genius, SURPRISING both
"The Birth Of Nation" and "Intoler-
ance," will be the attraction at the
Opera House two days only, afternoon
and evening, May 5th and 9th.
That Hearts Of the World" has es-
tablished q new high record for even
a Griffith production may be gained
from the'fact that it has been shown in
Chicago, New York, Boston, Philadel-
phia and other cities upwards OF more
than six hundred times at $500 prices.
That it Is most unusual achievement
is evident from the announcement that
David Lloyd George and other high Of
ficials Of the British and French ma
tons not only gave Mr.. Griffith their
most hearty cooperation in the talk
ing Of the principal scenes, but per-
sonally appear in the play.
Contrary to the general opinion,
this latest Of the Griffith works is not
a war play. 1t is described by Mr.
| Griffith himself as "Thc sweetest love
story ever told" 1t was written by
CASTOR de Tolignac and translated
from the French by Captain Victor
Marcr. The story is in two parts, the
first revealing the life of an ordinary
French family before the war and the
second the experiences Of these people
when the great conflict ended in vic
| tory for In allies.
The majority OF the scenes in
Hearts Of the World" are described
as great moving paintings that might
have been conceived by the worlds
greatest artists, their beauty and
grandeur far eXccllinC anything ever
before attempted even by the master
hand of tn ndomitablc Griffith.

Mr.. FAMILY MAN.:
Why Spend So Much
Money on Shoes?

Here is what Tracy Munson Of
joplin, Missouri, says of Neolin
Soles: Judging from my own ex-
perlence, they wear four times longer
than other soles and have the addi-
tionai advantage of being waterproof
Why continue to wear extravagant
old-fashioned soles when you can get
these money-saving, long wearing soies
on new shoes in any style you like
Tor any member Of the family? Good
shoe stores everywhere carry them.
And don't throw away your old
shoes. Have them >re-bottomed with
Neolin Soles and enjoy the comfort
of a. re-soled shoe which is not stiff
or clumsy. Ne6lin Soles are a dis

PREDICTSD. c. UNITY
THROUGH CITY CLUB

The recently organized City Club
viii be q potent force in the future
advance and development OF the Ma
tional Capital. in the opinion OF Louis
Brownlow, president OF the Board OF
District Commissioners. In formal
statement. Mr.. Brownlow today gave
the project his fullest Endorsement,
expressing the BELIEF that IL would
ter~ to bring about greater unity OF
thought and action concerning civic
matters.
The progress already made as
Sures the success OF the plan for the
| establishment OF City Club IN
v ashington." SAID Ny. BrownloW. Il
doubt, however. il even the most en-
thusiastic leaders OF the movement
realize how much a City Club may
mean for the future advance and
progress OF the city.
People OF Washington need, more
even than the people Of other cities,
! a common meeting ground where in
! dividual angularities of opinion may
! be polished off by much rubbing OF
1 elbows to the end that a common
! counsel may prevail in matters OF
great civic import
Offers Many Advantages.
Il would not have the City Club
/ take the place OF any OF the great
! trade and civic organizations that
| have done so much for the welfare
( OF the Capital and that are still do
| ing their full share. But the club
can furnish what none OF the exist
ing organizations can hope to pro
| vide, and that is a common meeting
place for social contact where all
matters and things may be threshed
! ont in man-to-mGn fashion.
Washington is too much divided
/ for its own good. The men OF busi-
ness have too little contact with the
men in Government, and both have
| too little opportunity to meet the men
! Of science and literature who are so
! numerous in Washington.
The City Club offers an oppor-
/ tunity for all men Of high character
| and public spirit to unite in a general
| movement for the public good"

Officers OF the club are confident
