BREWERS URGE
WILSON'S VETO
Protest Against Proposed
Prohibition Act As
Illegal.

A petition of protest against the
proposed national prohibition act
was fled at the White House yester-
day by the United States Brewers
Association. 1t was addressed to
the President. -.
The association. which claims to
represent an investment of approxi-
mateIy $500. 100000 says the enact
ment of the bill, which has been
passed by both Senate and House
would extend war prohibition as
we'll as to provide-illegally, It is
charged-for the enforcement of the
eighteenth article of amendment to
the Constitution. .
The brewers set forth their opera
tion of 435 separate brewing plants,
which brew 20 per cent of the beer
made and sold in the United States
and employ more than $4,000 per-
sons. They say they do a business
of $525, 100000 a year, of which
s210. zoo, 900 is payable in taxes to
the Federal government.
A Presidential veto OF the prohibi-
ton act is the substance of the
brewers request, but at the White
House yesterday II was said the
prohibition bill had not yet arrived
from the Capitol.
At the present time, according to
the brewers. they are confining
themselves to the manufacture Of
2.75 per cent beer. which they say is
nonintoxicating. In furtherance of
this claim they cite the proceedings
in the United States District Court
in New York.

DAN COLEMAN URGES
FREEDOM FOR IRELAND

There is no comedy about my senti-
ments regarding the freedom of Ire
land" said Dan Coleman. the well
known Irish comedian appearing at
the Gayety Theater this week. speak
ing Of his big Freedom OF Ireland
spectacular feature in the Harry Hast
ings Show.
Il was born in Boston, but my
parents were Irish and my sympathies
and sentiments are Irish. I believe
the people OF Ireland have long pass
ed the time when there was any ques-
ton as to their capability of govern
ing themselves. They have held re-
sponsible Offices in other governments
and have held them with honor
They have played a big part in the
making and enforcing Of the laws of
other nations and they have fought
hard and loyalty for this country.
For generations they have shown that
they had the ability as well as the
inclination to maintain their own re-
public and I am one of those who
believe they should have the chance.
This Is the generation OF free ma
tions. Why should the little Emerald
Isle that has worked so long and so
hard for its freedom he denied it's
emancipation by those who claim to
be working for Liberty throughout the
world?
I'm my travels throughout the coun-
try l have found that the sympathy
in this country for the Irish cause Is
growing. The time was when talk of
an Irish republic was to be taken
as a joke. 1t Is different now. The
time was. too. when TO refer to
Jewish nation was to be taken equally
lightly. but now the Jews have their
free Palestine. and the world regards
it as right and equitable. and the free
Jewish nation. I believe. is heartily
in accord with 1reland's plea for its
own nation and its own government.
Perhaps this feature in a burles-
que show may be taken as an indiCa-
ton that the sentiment 1t expresses
is not sincere. But when ] originated
IL tried to frame it to express my
own sentiments. II its plea for Irish
freedom carries its message across
the footlights il is doing what il is
intended to, and what l want it to
do"
