POOL EUROPE's NEEDS
AND AMERICAS RESOURCES

New York, July 24.-To pool Eu-
ropes need of credit and commodities
on the one hand and to pool Americas
resources to- meet them is a plan sug-
gested by James S. Alexander, presi-
dent of the National Bank of Com
merce of New York, for rehabilitating
European countries and enabling them
to reconstruct their stricken in
dustries.
Mr.. Alexander is a member of a
committee recently formed here to in
vestigate methods for supplying Eu-
rope with American money and goods
during the reconstruction period. This
committee was formed upon the sug-
gestion of Henry P. Davidson and is
headed by j. P. Morgan as chairman.
"A pool of Europe's needs should be
met by a pool of Americas resources -
asserts Mr.. Alexander. That is.
Americas resources should be applied
to Europe's needs through a great,
centralized credit organization, with
extensive powers of coordination
This may sound like an ideal plan
stated in sweeping terms. but 1 think
it's details can be, worked out in prac-
tical concrete form"

Another Attack OF
Presidents S Course
Senate Storm Center Was Sec
ton of Defense Treaty With
France - Brandegee Says
President Violated Pledge of
Simultaneous Presentation.

Washington, July 24.-while- repub-
lican and democratic senators were
feeling out the possibilities of Former
President Taft's plan for interpreta-
tions in the League OF Nations ratifi-
cation, the attack on President Will
sons course in concluding peace WIS
renewed today from a new quarter.
The storm center of the assault was
a section of the defensive treaty with
France which published texts have
shown provide that it must be pre-
sented for senate ratification at the
same time as the treaty with Ger
many" The latter was submitted two
weeks ago; the former, brought back
from Paris by the president, still is
in his possession.
In an hour of bitter debte, Chair
man Lodge of the foreign relations
committee, and Senator Brandegee, re-
publican, Connecticut, accused the
president of violating the pledge of
simultaneous presentation nads when
he signed the treaty, and Senators
Hitchcock, Nebraska. and Williams,
Mississippi, democrats of the commit
tee, replied that the charges only re-
newed the attempt to '.hamstring''
and discredit the president
Later Chairman Lodge presented a
resolution by which the senate would
respectfully request" that the treaty
be submitted SO that the ersena-e could
consider it '-in connection with the
treaty with Germany" It proba bly,
will come up tomorrow. 1t carries this
quotation from section four of the
treaty as published: -
THE present treaty will ne submit
ted to the senate at the same time as
the treaty of Versailles is submitted to
the senate for it's advice and consent
to ratification"
The suggestion of Mr.. Taft for six
interpretations in the ratification res
olution aecting the league covena n t
led to no discussion on the senate
floor.
Shantung and the league were de-
bated in the senate Senator Robinson
presenting the legal claims eff Japan in

dent had opened correspondence on

PREDICTS IMPROVEMENT
IN FRENCH INDUSTRY

C1ementel, minister of commerce, ex-
planned that by reason of the rate of
exchang esome German products could
be sold at very low prices in France,

said, would improve with the stabiliZ-

distribution of coal.

JUDGE SAYS 2.75 PER CENT.
BEER is INTOXICATING

New York, July 24-Beer of 2.75
per cent. alcoholic content is held to
be Intoxicating within the meaning of
the wartime prohibition act in de-
cision returned today by Federal
Judge Thomas 1. Chatfeld of Brooklyn
in a test case brought by the govern
ment against Martin Schmauder of
New Haven, Conn, who was charged
with selling beer in violation of the
wartime prohibition law.
Congress had it in mind,' the opin-
ion asserts, ito say beer or any other
product of malt of an intoxicating ma
ture.' The thought was that expressed
in the selective service law. which
says No Intoxicating liquor, including
beer, ale or wine. But either state
ment would suggest that congress
classified, and intended to classify,
beer as Intoxicating and merely made
sure that it was covered by the law
in case dispute arose. The law surely
included beer and showed that con-
gress understood it to be intoxicating -
After quoting several recent de-
cisions in cases brought to test the
validity of the wartime prohibition act,
the opinion concludes:
1T is apparent that no court has
held that congress did not intend at
the time of passing this law to pro-
hibit lager beer containing any amount
of alcoholic content sufficient to make
it taxable by the revenue department
sufficient to bring it within the gem
eral definition of lager beer as known
from past experience and sufficient to
bring the act within the prohibition of
the selective service law which pro-
hibited the sale of any intoxicating
liquors, including wine and beer
In other words. the statute intend
ed to conserve food. to increase the
man power of the nation and to pro-
tect the organization of the army pro-
shibiting the sale of beer which has a
tendency to into1 cate to such an ex-
tent as to interfere with the morals
the physical, welfare or the good order
of the community. Whether or not the
mere sale of malt beer even though it
has not sufficient alcoholic content to
fully intoxicate is of itself detrimental,
whether the sale of such liquor (even
though it would not fully intoxicate)
is Instantaneous from the stand
point of the conservation of food are
things with which the court has moth
ing to do. That is a question for the
calm consideration of congress and it
is evident congress intended by the
act under consideration to prohibit the
sale of any such beer
