Guinea Pig as a Whisky
Tester Has Dark Future
IF He Drinks 1t and Lives It's
Good; if He Dies It's Bad;
Demand for Him IurnIas

The smooth coated cavy, or, as it is
known in professional circles, the
guinea pig, seems in for extinction
now that it has been discovered it
affords an infallible guide to the purity
OF whisky.
If the cavy drinks few drops Of
suspected whisky and does not die, then
the human being who is standing
breathlessiy expectant in the ofing, may
also drink and be confident of living.
But if the cavy gets SO much as
drop Of wood alcohol the life of the
animal is the forfeit, and his owner,
before arranging for the guinea pigs
funeral, destroys the deadly liquid.
There will be cavies on exhibition
at the Madison Square Garden Poulty
Show, Inc, from January Is to %, but
they will be closely guarded. From the
press department Of the show comes the
information that the price of whisky
testing cavy has risen from SO to SIS
since the information leaked out that
they are mighty handy beasts to carry
III ones coat pocket. 1t is further
given out that since November l no
fewer than $50 cavcs have died of wood
alcohol poisoning and that the disap-
pearance of the bison will be nothing
to the suddenness Of the blotting out
Of the cavy kind unless there are
ringing resolutions by various cham
ocrs Of commerce, followed by pretec-
live Legislation at Washington
incidentally, don't be swindled into
buying rough coated cavy. 1t is
only the oth-coated ones who have
the, registering instinct sufficiently de-
veloped to make them infallible as
liquor guides

ALBANY. De-. 26.-An appeal to en-

such general lows affecting cities as

reduce tax burdens either by economic

Retrenchment, it was said, was as
necessary in city as in state or Federal

to be larger this year than last in most
cases, while the cities were facing a
redrction in revenue from indirect
taxation.

Message TO Legislature
spsciuI Dispatch 10 This Tribune

ALBANY, N. Y, Dec 26.-Albany
will once more become the center of
political affairs of the state on Fri
day, when Governor-elect Nathan L.
Miller will begin a series of confer
ences with Legislative leaders and rep
resentative citizens on the state budget
problem and other questions to be
brought before the 1921 Legislature,
in the Governors annual message.
Mr.. Miller and his family are ex-
pected in Albany either Thursday
night or Friday morning and will take
possession of the Executive Mansion,
which Governor Smith vacated last
Monday. Leading members of the Legs-
lature also are expected to arrive in
Albany within forty-eight hours to at
wise with the Governor-elect.
State officials who attended the
Syracuse conference last week said
the question foremost in the Cover
elects mind is the, annual appropria-
ton bill. They feel that nothing has
swerved Judge Miller from his de-
termination that the state budget must
be reduced within the $142, 900 900
available for next year.
The appropriation requests submit
ted total S201 600 900. This does not
lnclude S4OOU,O0 as the frSt annual
increment on the s45,0OO,0O0 soldier
bonus bond issue, nor the score of
million dollars sought by the depart
ment of public works for barge canal
purposes.
While the states finance question is
expected to be given stellar position in
the message. this document also will
deal with other important subjects,
among them reorganization of the state
government, including possibly recon-
mendations for the return of the 1st
District Public Service Commission to
its old status. consolidation of the
states tax collecting agencies, recon-
mendat ons for housing legislation and
suggestions for the amendment of the
direct primary law so as to pave the
way, at least. for the reestabishing Of
official nominating conventions for state
and judicial officers Prohibition en-
forcement also will have place, and
probably daylight saving.
One Of the first acts to pass the Leg
islature probably will be the bill ere
ating a commission for the distribution
Of the soldier bonus.
Another important measure for early
consideration will be the Robinson
Stcinberg resolution creating a com
nittee to investigate the municipal af-
fairs Of New York City and county.

Drys Accused of
Refusing Aid in
Tightening Lid
Civil Service Reform League
Charges Anti-Saloon Force
Withholds Support From
Tinkham Civil Service Bill

The Anti-Saloon League has re
fused to support the Tinkham bill now
before Congress, which would bring
the appointment of prohibition en-
forcement agents under Federal civil
service regulations, the National Civil
Service Reform League declared in a
statement yesterday.
Supplantng of "the present ineffi-
cient, grating and chair-warming"
dry agents with competent and
honest" officials is the object Of the
measure, according to the statement.
The bill, which was introduced by
Repre- esentative George II. Tinkham, of
Massach usetts, woulo not only subject
candidates for new appointments to
civil service rules, but would require
all those now holding such jobs to
qualify to keep them by taking open
competitive examinations within three
months after passage of the act
Provisions Of the proposed law
authorized to be named by the Com
missioner Of Internal Revenue and the
United States Attorney General, to all
persons empowered to issue permits, to
agents and inspectors in the field serv-
ice Of the Internal Revenue Bureau
and special employees of the Attorney
General appointed under the Nolstead
act.
The statement of the National Civil
Service Reform League follows in part: {:
"The employees under the Volstead
act have been secured during the last
year under the spols system, in ac-
cordance with q provision in that act
which specifically exempts them from
civil service examination. During thi:
time the enforcement init has fallen
into such utter disreputc as to become
a mockery among not only the enemies
of prohibition, but also among it's
friends.
''As a demonstration of the practical
bility of selection of enforcement
agents through competitive examina-
the force Of employees under the Vol
stead act with the government agents
emp owed to enforce the Harrison anti
narcotic law of 1915. Under the pro-
visions of the Harrison act there are
employed in the Bureau of Internal
Revenue nearly 1000 men throughout
the country who work quietly and eff
fectively with violators of the anti
narcotic act. All of the ant-narcotic
agents ana inspectors are selected
through civil service examination. The
chief Of the anti-narcotic force, Colo
mel l.. G. Mutt. says that he would not
like to select his employees in any
other manner than through civil ser
vice examination.
'ln making appointments to the pro-
hibition enforcement unit the Prohibi-
ton Commissioner is forced to accept
the recommendation of Congressman
and other powerful representatives of
his own political party
"The National Civil Service Reform
League hopes to secure this much
needed legislation in spite of the fact
that the Anti-Saloon League. so far
has refused to lend its support. al
though it has been urged on numerous
occasions to do what it could to pro-
vide for the competitive Classification
Of these positions''

Murphy Wants Nations
OF World to Disarm
Tammany Chief Says New York
Delegation at San Francisco
and ALBANY Urged Move

Charles F. Murphy, leader of Tam
many Hall, broke his traditional silence
yesterday to announce that he was for
world disarmament. He said that not
only was he personally for it, but that
the advocacy of general disarmament
of nations was urged Upon the Demo-
cratic National Convention at San
Francisco last summer by the New
York State delegation.
The New York delegation, through
Mr.. Cochran" said the Tammany chief,
'insisted that only by world disarma
nent could universal peace be pro-
NOTED and humanity protected from
the endless dangers that threaten it,
AT Albany and at San Francisco We
took the stand that disarmament was
the transcendent issue of the world and
not alone Of this country. In it are
involved the calamities of war, of which
the high cost of living and taxation
are two"

Five Hurt as 200 Flee
Fire in Apartment House
Six Rescued by Policemen
Flames Arouse Patients in
Beth David HOsni7al

Five persons were slightly injured
and 200 tenants were compelled to fee
over the roof to adjoining buildings
when fire started in an old-fashioned
apartment house at 2187 Broadway. be-
tween Seventy seventh and Seventy
eighth streets, early yesterday morn
ing.
Policemen Balligan and Hardinan, of
the West Sixty-eighth Street station,
ran to the fourth floor in the thickest
of the smoke and led out George Mode,
his wife and their two children. Mrs.
Mary Pelz, living on the fifth floor, also
was assisted to the street Julia Nc
Govern, who lived in the Mode apart
ment, was overcome by smoke, but soon
revived; None of the injured went to a
hospital.
A small fire in a storeroom adjoining
the Beth David Hospital, at 1924 Lex
ington Avenue, caused some alarm yes
terday morning. Alexander Mildly,
night clerk at the hospital, discovered
the fire, turned in the alarm and helped
reassure the patients, who manifested
little alarm, though the corridors were
filled with smoke
