Of the New York State Hotel Mems

the rigors of the prohibition law, aim

liquors.
At the third annual convention OF
the organization, held here yesterday
resolution pledging support to a
proposed bond issue of $100,000,0OO
for good roads in New York state was
unanimously adopted. This action
was taken after the members Of the
association had learned from their
counsel that there was little hope of
again selling liquor.
H. Steward Green, commissioner OF
highways, who advocated the bond is
sue, pointed out that good roads meant
more tourists from other states and
larger number Of patrons for the
hotels.

Sugar Producers
Warned Against
Soaring Prices

WASHINGTON, Nov. THURMAN
G. Palmer, executive secretary Of the
United States Sugar Manufacturers
association, notified members of that
organization yesterday that the de-
partment of justice, while having nc
desire that any sugar producer viii
sell below cost plus far profit would
not increase the general maximum OF
10 cents pound wholesale for beet
sugar.
Mr.. Palmer said prosucers charging
more than this sum would be inves
tigated and subject to prosecution il
found to be profiteering, but that
they might sell direct to manufactur-
ers at higher prices provided valid
contracts were secured that the man.
ufacturers would not increase the
price Of the finished product because
of the increased price for the sugar
content.
Bad weather conditions just at har-
vest time have greatly decreased the
sugar content of bects, thus reduc-
ing the quantity of sugar which can
be produced. The beet sugar crop
now being harvested is estimated at
about 100000 tons.

Another Round
Won by the "Wets"
in Federal Court

LOUISVILLE, KY, Nov. 14,--At-
torneys for distilling interests ap-
parently won another round in the
fight on wartime prohibition in feder-
al court here Wednesday. Judge
Evans in the course Of arguments in
a case brought by Louisville distillersY
announced from the bench his belief
that the law is unconstitutional and
at the conclusion Of the pleas of at
torneys said he would issue an in
junction Thursday restraining govt
ernment interference with the sale
of the distillers' tax paid whisky.
Whether the injunction would be tem-
porary or permanent, the court said,
rested with Atty.-Gen. Palmer, whose
office was given until Thursday to
advise with the district attorney at
Louisville.
If a temporary writ is issued rules
of procedure would permit various
delays in its operation pending argu7
ments on a motion to make it perma-
nent. If permanent, only a writ of
supersedeas, it was said, could pre-
vent the Louisville distillers arrang-
ing for immediate disposition Of their
tax-paid whisky. This feature appar-
emily was the only point at issue with
Judge Evans, who called upon the
government to make showing for il
if it desired to do so.

Railroads to Be
Turned Back to
Owners Jan. |

WASHINGTON, Nov. 13.--A new
program to deal with the railroad
situation has been arranged tentative
ly by congressional leaders. 1t in
wolves probable passage Of temporary
emergency legislation to protect rail-
road and public interests, should the
carriers be returned by the President
to private control on January /, as
Wilson has announced is his intention.
Although House leaders plan to
press permanent railroad legislation
on their side of the capitol, the Sen
ate Interstate Commerce Committee
at a special meeting, agreed that final
enactment by Congress Of the per
manent legislation before January
virtually was hopeless, and steps were
taken toward passing temporary bill
continuing the railroads federal com
pensation until the final legislation is
completed
Transfer Of the railroads from gov
ernment to private control on Janu'
ary 1, the leaders were advised, has
been decided on finally and unalter'
ably by President Wilson and Direc
tor-General Hines.
Immediate enactment of the tenn
porary bill was favored by Chairman
Cummins and 9th erSenators unit
after they conferred with House lead
ers, but later it was determined tt
postpone action on the temporary
measure until December when, it il
believed, it will be demonstrated tha
the permanent legislation cannot b.
passed before the President turns
back the roads to the owners.

Stamford Police Nab Thief Who Has Evidently
 Operated in Conn.

What appears to be a very impor- tant capture was made in Green vic h Monday when Motor Cycle Officer Fitzroy, of Stamford captured Wadi- shaw F'edueczk, alias Fred II. Gordon, claiming to reside at 125 Sutter street, san Francisco, Cal, on a charge of stealing a physician's automobile. The actions of the prisoner attracted the officer. and when he started in pur- suit of Gordon. the latter made an at tempt to escape. 1t ended when Cor (ion's car hit a stonewan in Green Wich.
 When searched at the Stamford DO lice station, 6. receipt for the sale of an automobile was found in his pos session. It developed tat the car be }Ongad to Dr. Nj. l.. Marsh Of this city, and was located in d New York garage. Further investigation showed that the prisoner has sold four au;io O. mobiles in the past month to New Orleans parties.
 In Gordon's pockets was found his will made out in favor of his father who resides in Russia. There was al- so a life insurance policy for 5000 issued through the Hartford Life In- surance company.
 The capture of the prisoner may go a long way toward bringing to an end the wholesale theft of automobile which have been going on for the past year. Every city in the state felt the acts of the auto thieves, and Hartford has been particularly hard hit.
