pay slightly more for similar

transportation charges and labor.
Because of war conditions, trans

present one hundredth part of the
total service rendered by the "Y"
and the "Y" actually gave away
probably ten times more than all
the other war work organizations

CITY BREWERS NOT TO FIGHT

Prohibition League

Philadelphia brewers are not going to
join in the propaganda of the Anti
Prohibition League recently organized
in New York, to oppose the wartime
prohibition effective July l and urge the
repeal of the constitutional amendment
effective January 1G, 1920.
I'VE shall be glad of any success by
such n propaganda, but we are going
to fight prohibition only on the Legal
side" said II. A. Poth, secretary of the
PENNSYLVANIA Brewers Association
'"rhe liquor people, | believe, are not
going to unload during the last month
before July. There is about years
supply on hand and there has been
much less drinking of whisky since the
high retail price due to the tax, but
liquor men are banking on the President
canceling the July 1 prohibition.
Even if it should come then, the dc
mobilization would certainly be complete
by September /. Then sales could be
made again till January 16. The shift
ing back and forth from selling liquor
and beer between July 1 and January

THREE SHIPS IN TWO DAYS
Record for Delivery Is Established d
at Hou Island

A record for delivery of completed
ships to the United States government
was established at the Hog Island ship
yard when three vessels were turned
over to the shipping board in two days.
The vessels went to Marcus Hook to

take their initial cargoes from piers in
Philadelphia to be delivered to foreign
ports.
The record was established last week
when the Sarcoxie was delivered on
Friday, and the Schenectady and San

now at Girard Point loading cargo of
grain. The Schenectady is at Marcus
Hook receiving her fuel oil, and will
tie up at a Philadelphia pier to receive
her cargo for a foreign port on Thurs
