WARTIME DRY ACT
IS CONSTITUTIONAL
Proclamation of Peace Only Hope
Left the Vets.
ENFORCEMENT TO CONTINUE
Justice Brandeis Holds That Signing
of Armstice Did Not Abrogate
Powers of Congress-No Ruling
on Enforcement Measure.

Washington, Dec. 16.-The United
States Supreme court unanimously up
held the constitutionality of the war
time prohibition act, and the POSSIBLE
ity of a wet Christmas went glimmer-
ing.
There apparently is no chance for
wet holiday of any sort before consti-
tutional prohibition goes into effect
on January 16.
Under the terms of the judicial de-
cision it is illegal to manufacture or
sell liquor until peace is established,
either by the ratification OF the Ger
man peace treaty by the senate or by
resolution of congress declaring the
war terminated. There is practically
no chance for either of these plans.
Congress Will Not Relent.
The only other possibility of lifting
the lid for a last farewell to rum is
the repeal of the wartime prohibition
act by congress. But congress is dry
by such overwhelming majOrities that
this is q forlorn hope. The chances
are the house Judiciary committee will
not even report back for consideration
the Gallivan repeal resolution which it
will have before it when it meets.
Some of the vets profess to find in
the decision ground for the president
declaring the war terminated and de-
mobilization ended: which would have
the effect OF ending wartime prohibit
ton Superintendent Dinwiddie of the
Anti Saloon league calls this interpre-
tation "moonshine," citing thai part of
the decision holding that the termina-
ton of the wartime prohibition act
does not depend on the actual cessa-
ton of hostilities alone, because it did
not become law until after the armis-
tice.
The immediate effect of the courts
ruling is to nullify the injunctions re-
straining federal revenue officers from
preventing the withdrawal of liquor
from the bonded warehouses for sale
in this country. There are 100000
gallons in storage, valued at present
prices at more than $1,000,000.
No Volstead Act Decision.
The court did not act on the validity
of the Volstead prohibition enforce
ment act or on appeals involving the
alcoholic content of beer, leaving those
cases to future opinions which may be
handed down next Monday before the
court recesses for the Christmas holt
days.
The cases decided were those of the
Kentucky Distilleries and Warehouse
company of Louisville, Ky, and Dry
foos, Blum & Co. of New York, insti-
tuted for the purpose of compelling
the government to release whisky from
bond.
In both cases thes court denied con-
tentions of Elihu Root and other at
torneys for the distillers that the act,
in violation of the Constitution, takes
private property without just compen-
sation. that the period of the war
emergency for which the act was
passed had terminated, that the law
was an interference with the state po-
lice powers and an undue exercise of
the war powers of congress.

When II Came Time to Remove

equipment, and frequently force the au-
tomobile owner to abandon the use of
his car for the entire spring rather
than risk n breakdown.
Most of the unpleasantness and diff
ficulty may be remedied in many local
tiles even in the worst weather, for
there are times when the worst cut
up surface Is in fairly good condition
for dragging. BY taking advantage Of
the proper moment, the ruts and bumps
can be smoothed out and the next
freeze will result in a smooth hard
surfaced pike that can be favorably
compared to concrete highway.
Owing to the fact that the road sur
face will be rather wet and sticky
when dragged, greater care must be
exercised in handling the drag. If the
blades of the drag are set vertically,
there will be tendency to scrape up
too much earth, or, In the language
Of the road man, "Ball up in front"
Also, If the hitch to the team Is set too
near The center, the angle of the drag
with the road will be too nearly
right angle, or straight across, to shed
or crown the wet earth.
Dragging under these conditions
should be more an "Ironing out the
wrinkles" process; hence the blades of
the drag should be given a forward
or fiatter inclination than when work.
ing a dry road. The hitch should be
so arranged that the angle of the drag
is more nearly parallel to the road
than ordinary, thus causing the earth
to shed better and prevent trouble. For
extremely bad conditions, the use Of
the road machine ahead of the drag
will be found effective. In all cases,
the road should be freed of all stumps,
snags, and powders, as these seriously
retard good dragging.
A little practice will enable the OPP
orator to do fairly creditable Job,
and after subsequent freeze the road
will present smoother and much more
comfortable surface. Then, when the
spring rains come, the road will quick
ly shed the water that formerly col
lected In the deep ruts, and be dry and
hard long before similar roads not
dragged.
The present difficulties encountered
in getting large amounts of crushed
stone for road repairs necessitates the
greatest care In maintaining all road
surfaces in the best possible way with
out the use Of additional materiala

DRUGGISTS! VlCk'S VAPORUB
SHORTAGE OVERCOME At LAST
A TREMENDOUS JOB TO INCREASE
OUR PRODUCTION

In this emergency we tried to do our
part. We secured the country for raw
materials-our Traffic Manager spent
his days riding freight cars in--we
shipped raw materials In carload lots
by express and pleaded with manufac-
turers to increase their deliveries to us.
But 1t was slow process. Some Of
our raw materials are produced only
In Japan-supplies In this country
were low and shipments required three
months to come from the Far East.
Then we had to recruit and train
skilled labor. We brought our sales
men into the factory and trained them
as foremen. We invented new ma
chinery, and managed to install 1t on
Christmas Day, so as not to interfere
with our daily production.
143 JARS OF vAPoRUe EVERY
MINUTE DAY AND NIGHT
BY January 1st we had everything
ready to put on our night shift, and
since then our laboratory has been
running day and night. To feed our
automatic machines, which drop out
one hundred and forty-three Jars of
VapoRub minute or one million and
eighty thousand weekly, has required
force of 500 people. Our Cafe De-

these workers, served 1000 meals DUR

jars Of VapoRub manufactured and
distributed since last October-one jar
for every two families In the entire
United States.
