Iishment Of a government distributing
station for the release of whiskey on
prescriptions from physicians waA
proposed today by United States At
torney Ross, after conference here

Mr.. Ross said he had received very
many complaints from the public re-

key served was Of inferior quality.
Il appreciate, of course" Mr.. Ross

to change the present law by pro-
viding that druggists should not sell
whiskey, but I believe that the cstab-

this prciteering and the selling of an
inferior and possibly adulterated ar

N Versailles Treaty
Leaves Germany
AT Victor Mercy
Period Of Bondage Depends
Upon the Magnaminity Of

sailles leaves Germany entirely at the

tunes and all her goods she is boupd
years. and her fate depends entirely
on the moderation and magnanimity
'of her old antagonists.
They have the right, If they care

wealth Germany produces for many
years to come. Actual war expenses
have been deducted from the sums
which make up the indemnity Ger
any must pay. but on the other hand
she must pay the pensions OF the VIC
torfous states. II liz not dif1cult to
imagine what a tremendous total
these pensions alone will come to If
the terms Of the treaty are enforced
TO the letter.
The treaty requires Germany to pay
at once the fret instaiiment on the
70, 600. 000.0o marks, As to the
total sum due to her enemies, an in
ternationai committee will Ak the
amount and dictate the methods Of
payment. Nor is this the only In

poses upon Germany. She will also
be called upon to reimburse the al
