According to the report coming to
the railroads, the present spell of
cold weather is to be of short dura-
ton. Warmer and clearing wealth
er is already on the way, tempera-
lures out in Wyoming and western
Nebraska starting In yesterday at

ment will take no steps TO prosecute
manufacturers of beer of 234 per
cent alcoholic content pending fed
eral court decision in litigation now
in progress here to test the con-
stitntionality of the wartime pro-
hibition act. However, producers of
this commodity after April 80 will
operate at their peril, according to
William c. Fits, representative of
Attorney General Palmer, who an
nounced the governments attitude in
court today.
District Attorney Caffey, of the
southern New York district, supple
mented the announcement with a
statement that he had no DISPOSE
ton to begin any prosecution under
the emergency prohibition act un-
til the court had had time to con-
slider the test case. Should there
be any change in the situation. he
said, the court and the brewers

MICHIGAN AND

HaWkeye State May Lose
Honor of Being First to Go
Over Top in Victory
Bond Drive.

Washington, April 24.-Subscrib-
ers to Victory Liberty loan notes
are encouraged by the treasury to
buy registered instead of coupon
notes to eliminate danger Of theft
or loss. In explaining this today,
treasury officials said the desire of
the treasury to issue registered Sc
curities wherever possible was EN-
phasized in this loan because the
registered notes carry one interest
coupon for the December IS pay
ment, thus saving the treasury the
expensive routine of sending out in
terest payment checks at that time.
Unofficial reports show that most
subscriptions so far have been for
coupon notes which may be con-
verified later to registered securities.
Most subscriptions appear to be for
the 4M per cent partially exempt
notes rather than the 3M wholly ex-
empt securities. Total subscriptions
reported today were $396,000,000.
Iowa May Lose.
National loan hea dquarters today

Michigan or Iowa had first subscrib-

the natives If they had seen any ''pret-

who had a diamond. It was a small
stone, and the prospector offered $50
for it, but he refused to part with 1t.
He increased his offer to $50, but stin
the man refused.
