NOT so EASY TO
DIVIDE LOU o r
Agreement Between the Eugene Will
lizards to Split Cellar Stock May
be Upset BY Prohibition Law.
lBy International News Service.


New York, Oct. Eugene Will
lard, lawyer and member of Union.
Racquet and Tennis New York Yacht
and Piping Rock clubs, faces the sad
prospect of losing his private liquor
supply via the divorce courts, due to
the drastic provisions Of the Volstead
act.
Mrs. Ella Gutherie Willard, daugh-
ter of William ID. Gutherie, has APP
piled to Justice Benedict for an abb
solute divorce from Mr.. Willard, and
filed as part of the legal papers an
agreement between herself and her
husband for a fifty-fifty division of
their supplies of liquors for beverage
purposes. The agreement follows:
1.-THE plaintiff, MRS. Williard) and
the defendant (Mr. Williard) agree to
an equal division of the wines, liquors
and cordials at Locust Valley, L. l.,
and at No. 33 Park avenue, Manhat-
tan. The plaintiff agrees to submit to
the defendant a list of all wines,
liquors and cordials owned by them,
wherever situated. The defendant
agrees to assume all liability under
the Volstead act for removal"
At the legal department of the local
prohibition enforcement office at the
Custom House it was said that the
circumstances indicated there was no
way in which Mr. Willard could trans
port the liquor from either of the
homes mentioned without violating
the enforcement act.
The law would permit Mr.. Willard
were he moving his own domicile
from one place to another, to apply
for permit for the transportation
of liquors, but both the homes mem
toned are the property of Mrs. Will
lard, having been given her by her
father. Moreover, Willard has not
been living at either of the homes re-
Gently. He and his wife separated
and he went to Ii elsewhere.
Mr. Willard did not defend the di-
vorce action. A Recommendation that
Mrs. Willard receive an absolute d.
yorce has been made by referee.

IRISH FREEDOM
IS PREDICTED
In Final Speech Cox Brings Long
Western Campaign to an End With
Strong Plea for Right Of Ireland
Under the League.

Kansas City, Oct 2.--Governor
James M. Cox rang down the curtain
on his western tour before huge
crowd in the big convention hall here
tonight by predicting that before
very long Ireland win be free" and by
asserting that her hope for permanent
Independence lies in the league Of ma
tinns.
He characterized as "deceitful prop
aganda" the belief apparently current
among some Irish Americans that if
4he United States joined the league
she would be bound ito help Great
Britain suppress Ire1and's attempt TO
free herself The governors view
was that Ireland's fight for freedom
was internal aggression" and that
the covenant, particularly Article Ten,
provides that the members of the
league agree preserve only against
external aggression "the territorial
integrity and existing political indie
pendence of all members of the
league"
Right Under League.
Ireland has the right under the
league to wage internal aggression
to establish any form of self-govern-
ment that it desires, he asserted in re-
iterating his pledge that if elected he
viii bring the Irish question before
the league.
article Ten has very direct bear
ing on the Irish question: Cox then
Told his audience in which there were
many Irish.
IF Ireland achieves seif-determi-
nation and becomes free and indie
pendent as believe she will be before
very long, then the United States
along with oIner members of the
league will be obligated by the terms
Of the covenant to mutually guaran-
tee the safety of the new Irish repub-

from Moscow or Petrograd to proceed
The delay was attributed to lack of
facilities in Soviet Russia for handling
so many wounded.
According to these advices the So
Wet army is reported to have lost two

7. E. Wilson Tells Bankers
Return to Normal Conditions
Will involve No Panic.

BOSTON, October 4.-"Can Ameri-
can industry be contracted toward
normal dimensions without tragic
economic results?'
An affirmative answer to this ques-
ton was made public here this after
noon by the leader and official spokes-
United States, when Thomas E. Will
son. president of the Institute of
American Meat Packers, told invest
ment bankers from all sections of
the country that every essential
business rendering a genuine service,
no matter how serious it's problem,
may face the future with abiding
confidence" Mr.. Wilson spoke on
THE General Industrial Situation"
before the Investment Bankers As
ISOLATION of America.
Optimism Great Need.
1.-THE pressing necessity of the pres
ent Is to maintain a courageous and
optimistic morale" Mr.. Wilson said.
1.-THE process of readjustment is
now in full motion. The manufacture
of luxuries is being curtailed. The
modify prices are declining and fur
Their def1ation seems to be in prog
ress. A recent survey has been made
of the Industrial conditions of our
country which shows that economic
ally the United States is better off
than any other country of the world.
Mr. Wilson stated that labor has
had some difficult problems to solve
and some grave internal difficulties
to overcome" and added:
1T has been disturbed by radical
minority seeking to revolutionize in
dustry and to overthrow many of the
tirne- honored traditions of American

alive forces of labor seem to be in
the ascendancy and will no doubt

beginning to realize that, if it is to
profit permanently by the increases
must increase the value and purchas-
ing power Of the sum added to the
pay envelope by lowering the cost
of commodities through increased
production.
Urges Industrial Peace.
"If the men who represent all
grades and kinds of business and
labor in the United States could only
unite in movement not to fight each
other. but firmly to expose the omis-
siohs of! each and fairly spread the
truth, they might find a common
ground for cooperation and turn the
whole trend OF events toward a more
amicable solution of their common
problems.
1T is time for Washington and the
industries of the country to realize
that the war is over" Mr.. Wilson said
What this country needs now is a
revival of that spirit of individual en-
terprise and high industrial purpose
upon which the greatness of this
country has been builded. Business
should realize that it is now time to
grasp again the helm of it's own des-
tiny and take up once more the task
of steering into broader channels of
service.
Business should realize that it
cannot rely upon the government to
solve its problems through Legislative
enactments. Industry should do more
to educate the people in regard to its
business"
