CITIES EAGER

Milwaukee Enthused Over

trial Bureau.

The Lawson Airline Co., which
plans to make Omaha the principal
stopping place for its transconti-
mental passenger planes, is the chief
topic for conversation in Milwau-
kee, Wis, according to J. M. Gillian,
head of the industrial bureau of the
Omaha Chamber of Commerce.
Mr.. Gillian returned to Omaha
after a visit to Milwaukee and
Chicago. The Milwaukee Chamber
of Commerce is lending the Lawson
project every available aid the city
affords, in the hope that the airline
factories will be located there, Mr..
Gillian says.
"The project is not considered a
mere experiment there" said Mr..
Gillian. 1T is treated as a business
proposition and Milwaukee does not
underestimate the value of the COM
pany's factories there"
Mr.. Gillian did not see the giant
Lawson plane which recently made
a successful test flight at Milwaukee,
but heard glowing descriptions of it
by many who had. 1t is the last
word in air crafts, and will afford
its 26 passengers every luxury of
travel, including sleeping. quarters
and dining facilities during the trip
from coast to coast, and still be as
safe as any craft which ever piled
the air, according to experts who
have seen it.

Poultry Prospects For Carroll COun,
ty.

Anyone seeing the exhibit of poul-
try at the Taneytown Fair cannot
help but realize that fancy poultry
can be produced in the county as
we'll as the utility stock. There are
over 20 breeders Of fancy and pet
stock in the county. Would it not be
well to add this class Of our product
to the county exhibit to be held this
fall?
In a county close to good markets,
with good transportation facilities, a
number of farmers are getting the
top of the market for their eggs.
With good product at IS now what
can be expected by the holidays?
The value Of the poultry Of the
county could be greatly increased if
the farmer would get rid Of the mon
grol stock and keep one variety. The
results would be beauty, easier kept,
a uniform product, easier handled all
around 1t would take year to
make the change at small cost.
a poultry society of all poultry
breeders and those interested in
poultry would be a big help to the
industry in the county. Meetings
could be held from time to time in
different parts Of the county, interest
ing programs arranged, and in the
end all would profit by it,

TO LIFT WAR PROHIBITION OC-
TOBER
President IL 10 End Temporary
Liquor Ban By Proclamation, 1t Is
Claimed.

Washington, Aug Wartime
prohibition will be lifted by a pro-
clamation of President Wilson on
October l as the result OF pressure
by banks, according to information
obtained here in high circles.
Millions of dollars are tided ND in
whisky and wines i'm this country a.
the result of the operation of war
time prohibition which was passed in
November last.
Since its operation in the last six
weeks the receipts of the Govern
ment from internal revenue have
fallen greatly, with the result that
the Ways and Means Committee are
now seriously considering the neces-
slty to enact revenue raisers to make
up for the losses from the returns
from the whisky and beer taxes.
But the serious aspect which is in
fuencing the President to act, aside
from his known desire to play fair
with semi-legalized industry, is the
great amount of money loaned to
distillers and brokers on whisky in
storage. In many sections banks
find themselves seriously hampered
by the inability of the whisky men to
lift the loans.
