sUance of blanket permits TO the in
dividual railroads entering those mar
kets, while control of the movement
between the primary markets viii be
exercised through the issuance OF in
dividual permits to the shipper
The individual permit system con
templates that before a shipper Of
grain may load car he shall have Sc
cured an individual transportation
permit from the grain control COM
mittee at the market involved" Mr..

tenn contemplates that permits shall be
issued by the grain control committees
directly TO the individual railroads and
not to shippers Railroads viii only
be permitted to load daily the num-
Der Of carloads prescribed by the COM

Being a much softer stone than the

pletely R8Verses Itself in
It's Latest Ruling
WHISKY REMAINS UNDER Ban
Steps Taken to Enforce Law Regard
ing All Strong DrinEs-con-
sress May Act Soon.

Washington.-As wartime prohibi-
ton took effect the Department OF
Justice announced that its agents
throughout the country would not at
tempt TO stop the sale OF % per cent
beer
This eleventh-hour development, a
fiat reversal Of an earlier ruling by the
department, vas due to the uncertain
ty as to how the federal district court
Of New York might rule on a pending
claim by brewers that beer containing
that much alcohol was not intoxicat-
ing.
Other Beverages Doomed.
But while this uncertainty existed
as TO beer Of lighter alcoholic percent
age than that sold generally hereto
fore, full warning was given that with
respect 10 whisky and all beverages as
to whose intoxicating powers there
was no doubt, every governmental
agency would be set 10 work in a de-
teTmined effort TO prevent their manu-
facture and sale
How long the sale Of % per cent
beer might continue would depend or
dinarily upon the speed of the courts,
but Congress meanwhile viii step to
the front in an effort to complete the
effectiveness Of the wartime law
Drys Want Clear Cut Law.
Exactly what they have refused
heretofore to do, prohibition members
Of the House now viii attempt-pass-
age Of straight, clear cut bin for en-
forcement of wartime prohibition
When word spread that the Attor-
ney General, by his ruling, had per
mitted beer saloons and breEeries to
remain in operation, members OF the
judiciary committee counted noses to
find a sufficient number ready 10 go
to the front to demand separation OF
the enforcement measures so as to get
through at once bill that would stop
the sale Of all beer Of more than one
half of I per cent of alcohol
Department Reversed Itself.
Officials Of the Department Of Jus
tice said the law prohibited the sale
OF % per cent beer and light wines and
then on the heels of this the district
attorney at Baltimore said that he had
received instructions from Washing
ton not to interfere with such sales for
the present After the issuance OF the
Attorney Generals statement officials
dismissed the whole subject with the
explanation that the department had
reversed" itself.

HOLLWEG TRIES
TO SAVE KAISER
Former German Chancellor De-
cIares Himself Responsible
For the World War.
INVITES TRIAL BY THE ALLIES
In Communication to cIemenceau Hun
Leader Offers Himself as sacri-
flee for countrys Acts.

J Berlin, June 3O.-Dr. Theoba1d Won
Bethmann-Hollweg, formerly German
chancellor, formally has asked the
Allied and associated powers to place
him on trial instead OF the former en-
peror. The ex-chancelIor says that he
assumes responsibility for the acts Of
Germany during his period of office,
and places himself at the disposal Of
the Allies.
The request of the ex-chancellor was
made June 25. in a communication to
Premier CIemenceau, president of the
conference. Doctor Won Bethmann-
this step May 20, but refrained at that
time on the expressed wish of the Ger
man government.
Letter to cIemenceau.
The communication asks Premier
CIemenceau to bring the following doc
ument to the knowledge of the Allied
and associated powers:
'Tn Article 227 OF the peace terms,
the Allied and associated powers pub
licly arraigned. His Majesty, William
II Of Hohenzollern, former German en-
peror, for a supreme offence against
international morality and the sancity
Of treaties At the same time they
announced their resolve to address a
request to the government of The
Netherlands for the surrender of the
former emperor for purpose of trial.
With reference thereto, I take the
liberty of addressing a request to the
powers to let the projected proceed
ings against his majesty, the emperor,
be taken against me- For this object I
hereby place myself at the disposal of
the Allied and Associated powers.
"Bear Sole Responsibility"
"As former German imperial chan
cellor, l bear for my period of office
sole responsibility as regulated in the
German constitution, for the political
acts of the emperor. I believe 1 deduce
therefrom the claim that the reckon
ing which the Allied and Associated
powers desire to demand for these
acts shall be demanded solely Of me.
Being convinced that the Allied
and Associated powers will not deny
international respect to the legal posi-
ton fixed by public constitutional law,
I may express the hope that they will
be inclined to yield to my urgent re-
quest.
