 When reached Washington, l called on Chairman Kahn to find out whom the hcarirrs on our bill Were likely to come up. He advised me that present indications were that they would hold no hearings on ap- propriation itcr,s until after hearings were finished on the military rco"- caniaation bill | asked if it would be possible to arrange a special hear ing on the Alaska item, as it.was ir mo way dorcndant on tho reorgaN'2a- tion bill, and be said he could mak" such an arrangement, but thought jt much better to take up the matter n rormollv with the d'froront members of thc military committcc, and to writ, out g rull statement which hr would hove printed for the records.

Suggestions Upon Suggestions

To the Editor of The Age-Herald:
 There is something very depress- ing in the suggestions of severe and severer punishments for attractions of our multitudinous laws, the greater portion of the new ones being regula- tive of the conduct of the citizens; the dignity of the state being but little law upon the statute books which ought by reason thereof to be ob- served.
 The suggestions are but symptoms of that same old spirit of vindictiveness which is ever present in the human heart and mind, and which though it may be dormant for a time will. Ike the rose of sharon, blossom forth in all its pristine glory just as soon as conditions favorable to it's revival de- velop.
 The prohibition laws Gin the enforce ment of which the home may be in- vaded as piously and religiously as the home was invaded in the good old days of hellfire and damnation to ascertain whether there were any inmates turk ing therein on the Sabbath day to escape the suffocating effects of the sermon which was redolent of fire and brimstone); the proposed anti-tobacco laws. the proposed federal blue laws AOi hNHoaJt anu tHe SuSSeSleQ ueaIn to speeders" are all symptoms of that same old spirit which needs but the atmospheric and climatic conditions winch attend power, to bloom again, and waste it's sweetness on the desert air of narrowness, er-righteousness intolerance and cruelty.
 The real dignity Of state cannot in the nature of things be involved in merely moral, social, economic or gastronomic law which carries within itself alone all the elements of

q donkey in snowstorm we might easfry put stop to many usages which ars not to be restrained by cruel and vindic- tive laws.
 Reducing the premium on contraband whisky would destroy more stills than the officers can ever hope to destroy, for when a distiller can afford to pay s 70 the week in dimes and still make a profit the premium is too tempting He has been freed from all competition, how. ever, near-beer, raisin wine and even ap- pie cider having been removed as com petitors, and that love of money 70 which we owe our civilization with aii it's luxuries and comforts, enlightenment and advancement, will ever tempt to the production of ''moonshne," making ri- diculous any law which itself offers the greatest premium upon it's violation, and the greatest protection by removal of competition to those who are willing te traffic in it's violation. If moonshinins is to be deterred. lessen the profits; 1T longer dresses are to be. worn by the women, emulate the Greeks; if speeding is to be reduced, impound the car; if thugs are to be thinned out, let loose the liveried policeman and make his unS form as conspicuous as possible.

dignity which may be attributed to 1t; in fact, a state may make itself a laughing stock by the adoption of such laws. The dignity of England could not possibly have been involved in that act of Parliament which made it a criminal offense to wear points on the shoe of greater length than three inches, and yet just such 8 silly law was passed during the reign of Edward III, but that it did not appeal to the common sense of any English grand jury is evidenced by the fact that although the dudes wore points upon their shoes of such their knee buckles to prevent tripping themselves up as they walked no in- dictment was ever returned under that foolish statute.
 We have fallen into the habit of thought that because there is a cer- tain provision on the statute books, it must not only be observed, but that, by heaven, it must be enforced, and we nave statute after statute wherein it is provided that the grand jury shall have no discretion in the matter of returning bills, a condition to which that unfortunate spirit above referred to will in time reduce a free people
 Even experimentation along the lines of deterring statutes seems never to occur to our legislators, and yet we are not without examples and exem- plars in this species of legislation.
 Under the laws of Greece it was pro vided at one time as deterrents to ex- trava gance, that no woman could ap- pear upon the public streets in sat- ins or silks or velvets, unless she were a courtesan; and that no woman might be attended in public by more than two servants unless she were drunk, and as consequence the courtesan

DOLLAR-A-YEAR MEN IN ANNUAL REUNION
Industrial and Commercial
 Leaders Present Are 0p- l timiStiC But Conservative
By Associated Press

Washington. December 11.-More than a hundred of the men who served the gov ernment at a dollar year during the war returned to Washington today for their second annual reunion, confident that the process of readjustment from war to peace was going forward satisfac- torily.
 Former members of the war industries board met to organize a permanent so- ciety, purely, the leaders said, to per- petuate wartime friendships. At the same time, however, the opinion was expressed that informal discussions of this group, (which is to meet annually would lead to Ia broader understanding of business problems.
 While all of the industrial and com mercial leaders in attendance were op- timistic in their expressions, they were also conservative. Daniel Willard, presi- dent of the Baltimore and Ohio rail- road, declared the reasons were obvious why this country should soon be on a normal forward moving basis. Every thing the nation has to have is found within it's borders, he said, and it's rail- roads had felt no recession in business and foresaw none.
 A similar expression came from Alex ander Legge, general manager of the In- lternational Harvester company. He said he was concerned about the decline in farm commodity prices, which has fcft the farmer "dazed," but believed that re- lief would come soon, although it would be gradual
 "It will come" he continued, through a broadening of the produce markets, and when it arrives will be of a substantial nature"
 Bernard M Baruch, former chairman of the war industries board, asserted that there was nothing to prevent the coun- try from experiencing prosperity" He warned against "too much pessimisln, saving that the worst of the troubles were over, and that the pessimistic tone should not now be overdone.
 J. Leonard Replogle, who was director of steel supplies for the war industries board, predicted brighter and better busi- ness conditions in April and May.

Troy, December 11.-(Special )-Some trouble has occurred near Goshen with Croat Larkin Wood, a negro. It is stated that Wood drew a gun on Tom mic Finley, prominent young farmer of that section recently. Later, when Finley and his brother-in-law passed the negro's house he came out with a shotgun and told the men to Let's have it over," aid fired. The car in which they were riding was about 50 feet away and the shot missed them They returned the fire and one bullet is said to have struck the negro in the head. The men then went on, but it is reported other parties later caught the negro and gave him a severe whip ping. Sheriff Furlow could not find the negro when he went to arrest him, and it is thought that he is hiding some Wh herA
