KRAMER IS SURPRISED
Vets Allege Decision Of
June 7 Left Questions
Open.
KRAMER IS SURPRISED
CBy Universal service.)

Elihu Root and William d. Guth-
rie, representing Christian Feigen-
span, a newark IN. J.) brewer. yes
terday filed in the United States
Supreme Court a petition for re-
consideration of the courts deci-
sion of June Z, sustaining the va
lidity of the prohibition amendment
and the volstead enforcement act.
Feigenspan contends that beer of
ATS per cent alcoholic content is
Misunderstanding. The petition points
out that, in view of the magnitude
of the constitutional questions in
volved, there is no record of any
important modern case involving
such vital questions being disposed
Of by a court of final resort with
out explaining its conclusions"
This, the petition declares, was
not done in the decision of June Z.
II quotes Justice McKenna as say
ing in his dissenting opinion, 1T
is difficult to measure the force of
the conclusions stated by the court
or the deductions properly TO be
drawn upon them"
The petition asserted that the
meaning and effect of such an
amendment was of necessity the
subject of discussion and concern
in the forum of public opinion, and
that the failure of the court to as
sign any reasons for its decision
had invited criticism and dissatis'
faction.
John F. Kramer, prohibition com
missioner, expressed surprise that
Root and the brewers seemed not
to tire of actions before the Su-
preme Court, in spite Of very dis
couraging experiences.

FRIENDSHIP CLAIM
IGNORED BY COURT

\ bosom friendship between two
men, while it permits of many
between the two, does
not, according to Judge Hardisou,
permit either member of a Damon
and Pythias alliance to help him
self to the contents of the purse
of the other without permission.
In Police Court yesterday Charles
Taylor, who claimed such an all
lance and friendship between him
self and Wade Fultz, of Kenil-
worth, was fined s25 for the larceny
of $40 from the latter.
Taylor, according to his admis-
sion, took Fultz's purse from his
pocket, took out a $40 bill and
handed the purse back to him with
out even thanking the man who
owned the money. ...,
Fultz didn't like the idea that
what was his was Taylor's and
what was Taylor's was his and
neither did the court. Fultz waited
for Taylor to return the money but
had to resort to a warrant.

.SILKSTOCKINGS
FOUND GUILTY
Chiropodists Blame Hosiery
For All Varieties of
Foot Trouble.
public Ledger Serviceo

Philadelphia, Aug 6.-Daniel W.
Springer, Tamaqua, Pa, had given
up hope that there was any cure
for the crippled foot of his daugh-
ter, Irene, now 1s years old.
He brought her to the conven-
tion of the National Association of
Chiropodists today. One of the
doctors discovered that her trouble
of ten years standing was only a
case of the mispIaeement of three
small bones in her foot. He set
these bones with his fingers. The
girl threw away her arch supports,
walking away without a bit of pain.
DR.. Edward Adams, of New York
City, who spoke on ulcers of the
Feet" asserted that surprising
number of cases of this trouble
were caused by scratching a foot
clad in a silk stocking. This com
pleted the case against the silk
stocking. During the convention it
was accused by various chiropodists
of causing practically every vari-
ETY. of foot ailment.

George H. Cushing, managing

tended the World Champion Poland
China SOW sale at Howard Lake, Satur-
day, and Mr.. Schultz went with him to
criticise this breed Of porkers. Both
gentlemen are experienced and highly
successful hog raisers and a friendly
rivalry exists between them.
