tary assumption by the Attorney
General of the acts enforcement also
relieves President Wilson of any dele
cation of authority under the Over
man act, which it was thought might
be necessary.
Own Opinion Will Not Count
After asserting that there has
been a good deal of misunderstand-
ing of the plans and purposes of the
Department of Justice" with respect
to enforcement of the act and that
under its terms it is the duty of his
department to enforce the prohibi-
ton law. Mr.. Palmer in his state
ment said:
1T is my duty to do this without
any regard whatever for my opinion
as to the wisdom or unwisdom of the
legislation, which is a matter en-
tirely for the Congress. There has
naturally been some differences of
opinion as to the proper construction
of the act, but the final word with
respect to its Interpretation is with
the courts, whose judgment will, l
am sure. be cheerfully acquiesced in
by all interests involved.
"All the questions involved in the
Interpretation of the law have been
recently argued IN a SUIT pending IN

government to determine without a
court decision just how they shall
proceed.

Attorney General Palmer De-
clares 1t His Duty to Prose
cute All ViolatorS

Washington. April 2S.-Enforce-
ment of national wartime prohibi-
ton, effective next July l, will be
undertaken by the Departm ent of
Justice.
Attorney General Palmer in
statement issued last night declared
that ''as long as the act remains in
force under its terms it becomes my
duty to see that it is enforced like
all other laws by the prosecution of
such persons as violate it, The At
torney General further asserted that
he possessed no power to grant
amnesty to anyone who might manu-
facture beer pending an interpreta-
tion of the law as to what percentage
of alcoholic constituent brings beer
within the meaning of the prohibi-
tion act.
The statement of the Attorney
General definitely settled the ques-
ton of the agency to take up the en-
forcement of the act, which arose
when Commissioner of Internal
Revenue Roper let it be known that
his bureau had neither the funds
nor staff suitable for carrying out

Dauphin-Perry Divided
on the Question of
Nonresident Players

A stormy session is promised when
Dauphin-P Perry League delegates meet
in the Shenk and Title store on Thurs
day evening to make final arrangements
for the opening of the season on May II.
The number of nonresident players
to be played at the same time in any
one game promises to be the bone of
bitter contention. Rules, as amended at
the last meeting. provide for the play
ing of five nonresident players at the
some time, but considerable opposition
has been aroused against this rule. The
Newport association at a meeting last
week went on record as being abso-
lutely opposed to the rule and threatens
to withdraw from the circuit unless an
amendment is made which will permit
the playing of no more than three non
resident players
Both Miffin and Marysvllle have like
feelings concerning the fve-player rul-
ing. although neither of them have gone
so far as to threaten to withdraw from
the circuit Both. however. are making
plans to play no more than three nom
resident players. At the league meeting
when the rule was adopted, Miffiin and
Marysville voted for three>player limit
while Newport was unrepresented, al
though sending letter in which it was
stated that she favored three players.
Rules of the league did not permit the
accepting of this as a vote.
Duncannon, Reedsville and Millers-
burg, the other three towns of the cir
cult, voted in favor of the five non-resi-
dent player limit. Millersburg, however.
will play few nonresident players.
Reedsvlle. with number of small
towns surrounding 1t. will be able to
draw high class players from them ct
small expense, and is highly in favor OF
the ruling.

voting will be done will be announced
at a later meeting.

team with watch fobs. So judging
from the amount of trophies on hand
and the many more which the
merchants of the city will most like
ly offer there will be some great base
ball found in this organization.
Each manager presented the pres
ident. Mr.. McCune. a list of contracts
signed to date and It is hoped that
the official roster of players will be
in shape for publication not later
than this Thursday. The managers
will meet in executive committe this
Wednesday evening at o'clock.
Work on placing the field in con-
dition will be started Monday or
Tuesday of this week, while the inn
provements to the grandstand will
be made at later date and accord
ing to the financial aid given. a
committee appointed by Professor
McCune will look after all the details
appertaining to the opening game
which will be between two old and
reliable team, the West End A. C. and
the Engineers and Firemen.

Newark, N. j., April 2S.-Althoush
no title Is involved, the eight-round
boxing match between Benny Leon
ard, lightweight champion. and Will
lie Richie at the First Regiment
Armory here tonight is attracting
widespread interest. Ritchie was
awarded the newspaper decision over
the champion in a four-round bout
at catchweiShts in San Francisco two
months ago. The contest tonight
will be at 142 pounds, above the light
weight limit. 1t was arranged to
satisfy the demand OF fight fans that
the men meet again in a longer bout
than four rounds.
Leonard. present champion, and
Ritchie. who held the title FIVE years
ago. are regarded as clever boxers,
but the champion who is the favorite
has announced that he will not be
content without boxing his opponent
and will try to make the bout as
short and decisive as possible. Early
wagers favored Leonard by 4 and 3
to l.
Leonard now is at the zenith of his
physical powers, being but 23 years
of age. and having led a careful,
abstemious life. He should be at his,

very best when he enters the ring
tonight, for he has had ample oppor-
tunity to recover from the effects CT
his arduous work as a camp boxing
instructor.
Ritchie is but five years the senior
of the lightweight champion, but at
28 should be in fine fettle for a phys
ical contest. The Californian has
been quite as careful in his mode of
living as the champion. and has con-
served his energies. An ardent de-
votee of outdoor sport, including
golf. Ritchie is doubtless at the apex
of physical excellence at the present
time.
He won the lightweight champion
ship from Wolgast in 1912 and lost
to Freddie Welsh in London in 1914.
Since that time he has boxed con-
siderably. but mostly short bouts

GRANGE OPPOSES
MILITARY TRAINING

The Hood River County Pomona
grange. through its legislative com
mittee, has urged the JOINT delegation
Of Hood River and WaseO counties To
oppose TO the utmost the proposed bill

schools. The bill is characterized as
PTussian in effect. The grange COM
mittee. composed of A. !. Mason. e.

the proposed boxing bill. II. b. 342.
providing for a special election. The
gTangers give their strongest endorse
ment to any mesaure that Will put the
Hood River experiment station on d
permanent basis. They also endorse
the following bills: II. b. 26. propos-
ing representation in the Legislature

u, making failure to vote mlsde-
meanor H. b. IS. creating special

FIFTH LIBERTY LOAN
Is A NECESSITY

In statement sent 10 Gov James
K. Lynch. Of the Federal Reserve
Bank. Secretary of the Treasury Car
ter Glass has exploded the rumOr that
the saving of more than fifteen billion
dollars as the result of the armistlee
had removed the necessity for another
Liberty Losn. Secretary Glass state
ment follows:
"A rumor has reached the treasury
that a mistake has been made by the
authorities. that from Sl5, coo, GOO, 600
to Sl7, 600. O00, 900 mas been returned to
the treasury as a result of the armis-
tiee and that therefore another Liberty
Loan is unnecessary. The rumOr Is
absolutely unfOunded | suppose IL
has its origin in a failure to under
stand the discussion Of the proposed
repeal by congress of SIS, 900. 200. 600
of appropriations and authorizations.
This does not mean a return OF money
to the treasury, but cancellation OF
authority heretofore given by congress
TO expend money in the future.
LAS matter of fact, sthe whole pro-
ceeds of the Fourth Liberty Loan and
of all previous loans had. at the time
the armistice was signed, been ex
pended or anticipated by treasury GER
tiiicates OF Indebtedness issued during
the summer and early fall to finance
the current requirements of the gov
ernment and at that time outstanding
and unpaid. "

MEXICAN CONDITIONS
ARE IMPROVED

The Mexican government, according
to letter received by DR.. Jesse Edg
ington from his daughter, Mrs. Alfred
W. Beckley, who with her family re-
sides at Tampco. Chocoy. where Mr..
Beckley is operating large stock
ranch, is making some progress in
breaking up bandit bands. According
to the letter the government forces
have recently become strong enough to
successfully cope with the numerous
bands of rowing bandits. A proclama-
tion has been issued offering immunity
to all bandits who will gve up their
arms and horses and join the federal
army. In case they fail to repsond to
the proclamation. they will be hanged
on capture, the order cites. Mrs.
Beckley says the proclamation has re-
suited in many rowing bands rushing to
the government forces.
The first wave of the influenza epi-
demic took heavy toll of the Mexican
poems. The recurring waves are not so
severe. and the country is emerging
from the chaotic conditions following
the first spread of the fatal disease
The Beckley family has just recovered
from attacks Of influenza of the light
er form.

ter to his wife.
Mr.. Davidson continues in his letter
to tell of the uncertainties that faced
exporters when the British embargo
was first lifted last December. Then
it appeared that supplies shipped to
England would be limited because OF
lack of shipping facilities. Several
reductions. however, have been grant
ed in apple freights and at present
shippers are offered more than they
can fill. The exporter says he regrets
that be hasn't 100 more ears to ship to

the market for apples next year, says
the market conditions the country over
have been phenomenal this year. lie
