+, COMMIssIONER DREW 1886 FOR
MILEAGE IN YEAR


The County Commissioners, OF
Frederick County, at the first bust
ness session following their organi-
zation heard appeals for economy and
conservation from II. Dorsey
Etchison. 4 member of the Frederick
4 bar. who has in recent years led cru
saders against Extravaganza in pub
lie expenditures,
Mr., Etchison was given a hearing
at his own request, and was accom-
panied ly William J. Grove of Lime
Kiln. Nd. He attacked the county's
system nf government, and claimed
that in 30 years the expenses OF the
county had increased nearly five-fold
from S1S3,207.72 to over $S5O,GO0
Speaking Of the mileage collected
by the commissioners, he said tho last
auditors report showed that S7,25630
had been paid them He claimed that
the law allowed the commissioners 10
cents per mile from their homes Il
the courthouse and that after they ar
rived there they were only entitled to
actual expenses, II they went any
where else on public business.
Mr.. Etchison also attacked the sys-
tenn of bookkeeping and~declared the
county auditors had not been able to
strike q trial balance, and that in his
opinion the system was such that Il
had never been possible to take a
trial balance
The county probation officer, Miss
Mary Jane Num- came in for criti-
cism also. Mr. Etchison said the au-
ditor's reBort showed that the county
had paid her $750.S6 for automobile
expenses. He claimed that she must
have travelled over $4,000 miles during
the year TO have been entitled to such
sum
In Speaking Of the public schools.
he said; Il hone gentlemen, this COM
ing year YOU will pay ne more to the
schools nf Frederick county not a
single dollar more than you are re-
quIred 10 do by law"

Observation-Disclosures in solving
the governments problem of caring

Or disabled, or physically fit but hav.
ing financial claims to be adjusted, was
made here ut the first meeting Of Pre-.
sident Harding's special commission,
headed by Charles G. Dawes of Chi.
cago and appointed to inquire into the
situation. II was unanimously agreed
Hlat the administrative machinery now
operating separately in the several
ields of soldiers relief, should be con.
solidated under one central authority,
probably a new executive officer who
would be responsible directly to the
President.
Bureau Heads Present.
Heads Of all the bureaus having to
10 with treatment of the war veter.
ans were present and in reply to
questions from Chairman Dawes. and
Colonel F. w. Galbraith, Jr., national
commander Of the American Legion
said they favored the general idea OF
consolidated service bureau. This
Endorsement, Charles Dawes said
promised quick solution of the prob
lem as 1t related to the general ad
ministration Of aid for men who are
alleged to have suffered under the
system Of divided governmental re
sponsibility.
Placing the Public Health com
pletely in charge of the proposed new
executive head. to the exclusion Of all
but soldier work was favored, but this
suggestion brought from medical au
thorities present statements that such
course would endanger the national
health. -,
Brigadier General Charles E. Saw
yer. who appeared as the President's
personal representative, declared EN-
phatically that the Public Health ser
vice should be retained as an entity
He was. supported by others of his
profession who asserted It would be
an unwise step taken at the expense
of the nations health. Chairman
Dawes, however, expressed the belief
that this service could be placed un
der the one directing head without en-
dangering the Public Health, because
the official in charge would not be an
extremist who would seek the better
ment Of soldiers to the detriment oi
the nation as whole.

Of the investigating commission, sis

Limit Taken Off Amount of Liquor
Physician Can Give.
Attorney General Gives Whisky, Beer
and Wine Legal Standing Under
Prohibition Laws.

Washington-The government is
without authority to prohibit the man
ufacture and sale Of liquor wines or
beer for nonbeverage purposes, accord
ing to a ruling made by former Attor
ney General A. Mitchell Palmer and
published by the internal revenue bu
reau.
The opinion, one of the most com.
prehensive delivered with the question
OF prohibition, expressly states there
must be no limitation on the use of
liquors for nonbeverage purposes ex.
cept that prescribed by congress in
limiting the sale Of spirituous liquors
to one pint for 10 days. The question
Of limitation thus, the opinion said. it
left to the good faith of the physician.
Subject to this limitation" the
opinion continued, obviously there.
has been committed not to the judg.
ment of the commissioner Of internal
revenue and the secretary Of the treas.
ury but to the professional judgment
quantity of liquor that may be used to
advantage as medicine in each case.
"As to this question, think the in.
tention was to leave the physician un,
fettered by governmental control, but
subject to be dealt with criminally;
and by revocation Of his permit If he
acts in bad faith"
The opinion, existence Of which be.
came known Sunday, was signed by
the then Attorney General Palmer. and
was dated March 8.
Commissioner Williams in making
public the opinion did so without com.
ment, say that he had not had oppor
tunity to discuss the subject with Pro
hibition Commissioner ]. T. Kramer
and therefore had prepared no regula
tions to carry out the construction ot
the law by Mr.. Palmer. He said, how
ever, that the bureau would give the
matter its immediate attention and ex
pected to prepare some regulations al
