BREWERS HOPES ARE DASHED
Supreme Court Rules 2 3-4 Per Cent
Beer Illegal

The Volstead prohibition enforce
ment act, defining as intoxicating any
beverage containing one-haH Of one
per cent or more Of alcohol, was de-
clared constitutional Tuesday by the
supreme court in an opinion on which
the court divided, s to a.
After upholding the Volstead act
and the right Of congress to ban 2.75
per cent beer, the court held that the
bureau Of internal revenue acted
without authority in stopping the
sale and manufacture of 2.75 per
cent beer before passage Of the Vol
stead act. This relieves from pos
sible prosecution brewers and liquor
dealers who sold 2.75 beer between
July I, 1919, when wartime prohibi-
tion became effective, and Oct. %,
1919, when the Volstead act became
law, but does not allow the sale
now Of 2.75 beer made during that
period.
Associate Justice Brandeis, who
rendered the opinion Of the court,
said the right Of congress to suppress
the liquor traffic was not an implied
power, but power expressly grant
ed.
The court divided s to 4, Associate
Justice Day, Vandevantor, Clarke and
McReynolds dissenting.
Justice McReynolds in q dissenting
opinion said that the 18th amendment
had not yet come into effect and that
the federal government had no gen.
eral power to prohibit the manufac-
ture and sale Of liquor.
The important feature Of the de-
cision is that the court upheld the ac-
tion of congress in declaring intoxi-
eating and preventing the sale Of all
beverages containing one-half Of one
per cent or more of alcohol, by vol
ume, with the exception Of homemade
cider and wine. =
The decree Of the court may be
taken as definition Of Intoxicating
liquor that will stand under consti-
tutional prohibition also because Of
the definite statement that congress
in providing for the enforcement Of
prohibition can prescribe just what
makes beverage intoxicating,
Supporting in every way the con-
tentions Of the government and con-
gress, just as the opinion Of the court
did when wartime prohibition was
declared constitutional by unanimous
vote, the decree Of the supreme trib-
unal apparently means a bone dry ma
tion.
Likewise it dispels the hope Of the
liquor interests for any fitting Of the
lid either at present or under consti.
tutional prohibition, it is believed.

REDS ISSUE SPURIOUS MONEY
Flood Allied Countries With Counter.
felt Currency

Proof of a gigantic plot by the
Russian soviet government to disrupt
the currency of the world by flooding
the allied nations with counterfeit
money, including 100000 in the
United States, has been revealed in
communist documents seized in the
raids by federal agents at New York.
The money is said to have been
smuggled into the country by way of
Mexico and many counterfeit $50 and
500 bills have been discovered.
Counterfeit Liberty bonds also are
declared to have been manufactured
and so cleverly that the only way
of detection is by comparison with
the original numbers of issue.
Information now in possession of
the federal agents indicates that the
Moscow mint has turned out millions
of dollars worth of bank notes of
England, France. Italy, Japan and the
United States. The sum appropriated
for this country is said to be $780,
100000.
Continuation Of the raids on COM
munists is expected. About 600 war
rants remained to be served. At least
SO local branches of the communist
and communist labor parties, which
have not been raided, are said to
be in existence in greater New York
A red concentration camp near
there has been urged by local officials
because Of the overcrowded condi-
tions at Ellis Island.

ROBERTS SELLS
;. RESTAURANT
I. s. Bunker; Formerly of Oakes,
Purchases Same and Will Take
Charge at Once
HEARTY WELCOME EXTENDED
Former Owner May Build ON Lot
West of The Point

An important business change took
place the last Of the week when I. s.
Bunker purchased the City Hotel and
Restaurant from T. B. Roberts, who
has conducted the place for the past
year or so. The lot west of The Point
billiard parlors changed hands in the
deal, Mr.. Roberts acquiring owner
ship of same. His intentions as made
public at this time are to erect fine
modern business structure in the near
future, If material and workmen are
available. It is an excellent location
and it is to be hoped the present plans
do not go awry.
Mr.. Bunker is a brother of ]. A.
and A. ]. Bunker Of this city and
formerly resided here. He left here
six or seven years ago and has since
been located at Fergus Falls and Lit
tie Falls, Minrss Only recently he and
his family, consisting Of wife and
two children, moved to Minneapolis.
Immediately after closing the deal,
Mr.. Bunker left for the twin cities to
make preparations for moving to this
city.
Mr.. and Mrs. Bunker are we'll and
favorably known to our people, who
are unit in extending them a-hearty
welcome home. There's no use talk
ing-they all come back to Oakes,
and we're just az glad to see them as
they are to come.
| Mr.. Roberts has had his eyes on
that lot west Of his billiard hall and
barber shop property for some time,
and he grasped his first opportunity
for acquiring it. Life in the restau-
rant game is somewhat strenuous
anyway, and Bunk 10 getting 20 he
doesn't care much for that form Of
exercise vulgarly known as work. He
will now be able to devote practically
all his time to his other interests and
is glad to be able to make the change.
The Times joins the friends Of Mr..
and Mrs. Bunker in wishing them
abundant success in their new UNDER
taking. And while we're at It we
hope Mr.. Roberts business continues
to EXPAND and prosper.

New Restaurant Started

Reece Bartlett and Arthur Hansen
have leased the rooms under the Oakes
National bank and are making prepar.
ations to open first class restaurant
and confectionery store there about
the first Of February. Both Of the
young men have had experience in
this line Of work, and they will no
doubt enjoy liberal patronage from
local people. Painters and decorators
are busy at present renovating the
rooms, and when they are finished
the appearance Of the interior will be
greatly improved. There is room for
an up-to-date public eating place and
we predict success for the young men
if they make the most Of their op-
portunities.

DENIS PLAN TO
HAVE BIG TIME
Washington is Mecca of Politician.
Adhering to Jeffersonian
Theories
INTEREST IN WILSON'S NOTE
William jennings Bryan Scheduled
for Speech

Twelve Of the leaders Of the Dem
ocratic party, including most of
those prominently mentioned for the
presidential nomination, are on the
list Of speakers made public today
for the Jackson day dinner 70 be held
in Washington city tonight.
A message from President Wilson
will be read first at the banquet and
speeches will be made by the follow
ing: William Jennings Bryan, Secre-
tary Daniels. Attorney General
Palmer, Governor Cox, Ohio; James
w. Gerard, former ambassador to
Germany, Champ Clark Of Missouri,
former speaker of the house; Cover
nor Cornwell, West Virginia; Sena-
tors Hitchcock, Nebraska; Pomerene,
Ohio; Underwood, Alabama, and
Owen Of Oklahoma, and Mrs. Peter
Oleson, associate member of the ma
tional committee from Cloquet, MINI.
The banquet, incidental to the
quadrennial meeting Of the national
committee to choose a time and place
for the national convention, is ex-
pected to provide vehicle for those
in the running for the presidential
nomination to place their views be-
fore the party leaders and the coun-
try.
Greatest interest among arriving
committee members manifestly cen
tered in the presidents message of
greeting and in the pronouncements
to be made by Mr.. Bryan. Charac-
terized a. IAN important word" by
White House officials, the nature of
Mr.. Wilson's message is being care
fully guarded. Speculation revolves
about what he may say on a third
term and on the peace treaty as \
campaign issue.
Guesses about Mr.. Bryan's address
touch on the same subjects. Many
Of the party leaders expect him to
declare his stand on the treaty and to
put himself definitely in the running
for the nomination. In the past few
weeks his friends have been very ac-
tive in his behalf and they expect the
banquet to give the opportunity for
him to again assume . conspicuous
place in the party councils.

Notice

Relative to the many protests con-
cerning the 80 called "High School
dances" we wish to make this state
ment:
While attended largely by young
people who also attend the Cakes
High School, these dances are in no
way connected with the school, and
have had no sanction whatever by
the school authorities. All respon-
sibility lies with the young people
themselves, and their parents. The
school and city authorities unite in
condemning the unauthorized use of
the school name in connection with
any activities outside the Jurisdiction
Of the school as not permissible, but
more especially in connection with
the present dance craze, which we
believe is interfering with The work
of the school.

Chevy Chase Objects
to Z0ning Mems Plans

Objections to the tentative plans of
the coming commission designating
Connecticut avenue and Patterson
street for commercial purposes are
outlined in detail in a supplemental
report submitted to the coming COM
missioners today by a committee of
the Chevy Chase Citizens Associa-
tion.
The report pointed out that it al
ways has been the object in Chevy
Chase to restrict business to the min
imum necessary for the needs of the
community rather than seek further
business establishments upon Con-
necticut avenue. 1t specifically stated
that the desire of the residents of
the suburb is to preserve those blocks
upon Connecticut avenue having resi-
dences.
at must be realized" the report
read, that a single place of business
opposite or in square otherwise
property values therein, and also the
beauty of the avenue as the one re-
naming monumental artery to the
city The stores alre ady erected are
certainly not of a slightly character,
and the value of all property abutting
the same is more or less deprecated
by the conditions surrounding such
stores"
W. A. H. Church, chairman Of divi-
sion No Southwest section), has
calleeS a meeting of the residents and
ton, to be hello at the Jefferson School
building at o'clock pm. tomorrow,
to consider the new coming law and
