DENY PETITI0N; CERTIFY APPEAL
 IN 15 MINUTES
New Record For Rapidity Established Tn U. $.
 Court

Louisville, Ky, Feb. 25-New records for rapidity in procedure in the United States Court nere were created yesterday when Kentucky Distiller- ies & Warehouse Go. laid before Judge Waiter Evans a petition alleging the Eighteenth Amendment to the consti- tuition was unconstitutional, had the petition dismissed and an appeal cer- tiffed to the supreme court of the United States all with IS minutes.
 The suit will be docketed inmedi- ately in the supreme court and mo ton made to advance it so that it may be argued at the time a similar suit instituted in Rhode Island is heard The main contention of the suit is | whether the two-thirds vote required | by the constitution refers to the en- 1 tire membership of the House and the
 Senate or to the membership who , were actually present when the vote
 was taken on the question of sub 1 hitting the Eighteenth. Anendmen | to the states.

HIGH TAX RATE
 MEANS TROUBLE
 TO RENT PAYERS
Rent of House Valued at $1O,000 May Jump $6 a
 Month.

What the increased tax rate of 2s.3 mills, an increase of "A mills over last year, may mean to the rent payers of Bridgeport is demonstrated by the fact that a landlord will be perfectly justified in raising the rent of a house valued at s1O,00O about S6 month to make up for the increased taxa ton.
 A house that is valued by the land lord at SIS, 900 will bear an increased rental of approximately s111 a year or a, monthly increase in the rent of about So.
 Figuring from a rent paying view point, residents of the city who have been paying $20 a month rent may expect to pay S26, an increase of 30 per cent. corresponding to the in- crease in the tax rate. Househ elders paying $50 a month may expect in crease of S9 monthly and those who pay S40 a month need not be surp1%Ied if the landlord in order to insure him self against loss, boosts their rent to S52. Those paying $50 can expect a new rental of about s65.
 This increase of 30 per cent. may be blamed on the landlords by some, but the landlords will have a complete 'talibi,'' as it is public knowledge they will claim that the tax rate has in creased 30 per cent. and in order to come out even" they will have to in crease rents a corresponding percent age.

 ABHORENT TO PEOPLE

Atlantic City, N. J.. Feb. 25-Brew- CTS of the United States will use every legal and constitutional means to keep that liberty and that property that is guaranteed to us by the con stftution,' Christian W. Fiegenspan declared here today at the United States Brewers Conference, of which he is president.
 Counting the non-ratifying states, those which have not voted for state prohibition and those which have voted against federal or state consti- tutiona1 prohibition in recent years '' he said. i've have 25, or more than a majority of the whole number. There are 21 referendum states, IS of which are not included in the foregoing. In these states the people have reserved to themselves '+the power to approve or reject at the polls any act of the 1egislature.'
 They must therefore be counted as states which have not ratified. Add ing these states to the a5 mentioned heretofore. we have a total of 40 in which the people are either opposed to federal prohibition or have been denied their undo1rbted right to pass upon it. No wonder the proponents of this system fought tooth and nai against letting the people vote!'

ONE OF LEADERS OF PROGRESSIVE PARTY UNDER T-ANNOUNCEMENT IS MADE AT WHITE HOUSE-FOR-

Washington, Feb. 25-Bain- bridge Colby of New York, who was one of the leaders in the progressive party under Theodore Roosevelt, will sue ceed Robert Lansing as Secre- tary of State. Announcement of his selection by President Wilson was made today at the White House.
 The selection of MT. Colby came as a surprise. most officials assuming | that Frank L. Polk, Acting Secretary, would be the presidents choice. The i first inkling that the president was to
 appoint some one outside of his off tied the White House early today in company with Raymond T. Baker, Director of the Mint
 MT. Colby was taken to see the
 president on the south lawn and few minutes later the formal an- nouncement of his selection was made. His nomination is expected to
 be sent to the Senate within day or two.
 This is not the first office MT. Colby has held, under the Presidents ad- ministration. He was appointed g. member of the Shipping Board and the Emergency Fleet Corporation in July, 1917, and also was member of the American Mission to the inter allied shipping conference at Paris in | the same year. He retired from the Shipping Board more than a year ago.
 MT. Colby was a life long Republi-

Deeds Filed Confirm
 Rem Arms Realty Sale
SUM INVOLVED APPARENTLY AMOUNTS TIC $5,7Oo OO0-THREE CORPORATIONS NAMED
 IN TRANSACTION

Warranty deeds apparently involv- ing the sum of $5,70O,OoO in connec- ton with the sale of Rernington-Arms U. M. c. real estate were filed at the Town Clerks office yesterday after noon. The purchasers named in the three transactions are the East End Realty corporation of which Chaun- cey B. Carver of New York is presi- dent; the Bridgeport Liquidation com pany; and the Fairfield Liquidation company
 It was stated this morning that the sale to the East End Realty corpora ton was a bona fide one and that this company is in no way connected with the R. A. U. M. c. Co. or it's sponsor banks. Whether the other two sales are. of like nature or not could not be definitely ascertafned-
 The purpose of transferring the various properties is stated as being a desire to simplify future sale of the property to other companies if such a thing comes to pass, this transac- ton merely clearing up the titles and putting them in simpler form.
 The East End Realty corporation becomes owner of the AT parcels of property in and in the vicinity of Bos- ton avenue, Putnam street, Helen street, Boston Terrace, etc., including l all the new buildings erected by the Arms company for war work and in- l dustria1 housing.

iviOESLE WILL BE SUCCESSOR
 TO ERzBERCER
Elk Minister Courts Investi- gation of Tax Re
 turns.

Berlin, Feb. 25-Under Secretary of State Moesle, who on Jan. 27 was named by Matthias Erzberger as dep uty in the finance ministry, has been selected to succeed Herr ErZberger, who last night resigned as head of the department
 In rendering his resignation as min ister of finance to President Ebert, Herr Erzberger based his action upon a desire to have the investigation of his aIlegedly falsifiSd tax returns pro- ceed without prejudice or considera- ton for his official position. While the official announcement assigns this as a reason, the minister's retirement and its alleged motive were complete ly eclipsed by the character of evil dence which Dr. Karl Helnerich, former vice chancellor, succeeded in piling up against Herr Erzberger dur ing the last two days of the 1atter's libel suit against him.

PROHIBITION IS EXPECTED TO CUT COURT RECEIPTS
Board of Apportionment Estimates Income At
 $15,OO0.

That the Board of Apportionment thinks prohibition will seriously af- feet the city government or at least the City court branch of it was shown at yesterdays meeting when the board estimated the receipts from this branch of the city government at but $15, 900.
 The total receipts set down for 1s19- 1920 were $50, 600, twice the figure adopted by the board yesterday It is well known among those in close touch with City court affairs that the daily sessions are getting to be so short and sweet that court lasts ap- proximately 25 or 30 minutes.
 At one time City court business was strong and regular, every morning seeing the pen comfortably filled with malefactors of greater CT less degree Both City court judge and a deputy judge were considered vitally necessary in the conduct of City court affairs. Times have changed since then.

DID NOT HAVE FATHER'SCONSENT TO MARRIAGE
Minor Asks Court to De clare Ceremony
 Void.

Stating that she did not have her fathers consent at the time she was married, TheIma Moorehead Flkins of Greenwich, a minor, filed papers in the Superior court today asking that her marriage to Elmer Eslkins of Greenwich be declared void. The young wife said that on February 5, 1918, when she went with E1kins to be married she supposed the ceremony was regular. She later learned that she should have obtained her fathers consent.
 Another minor dissatisfied with married life is Lillian Schwal1er of Weston, who seeks a divorce from Frank J. Sehwaller of Weston. In toIlerable cruelty is the ground. The wife, who says she is 19 years old, married Schwaller October 22, 1919. Her maiden name was Lillian Judd.
 Theodore Johnson of this city wants a divorce from Elizabeth Johnson of this city The couple were married in January, 1918. Johnson charges his wife with into1erable cruelty. Her maiden name was Elizabeth Flana- gan
