JOHN BARLEyCORN'S GHOST ID BOB UP AGAIN NEXT WEEK
Enemies of. Departed Spirit Plan to Deliver Final WhaCk By Passing New VoI-
 stead Bill
By Associated Pres,

Washington, May 7.--The ghost of John Barleycorn will bob up in Congress again next week at House judiciary committee hearings on Chairman Volstead's bill to keep him completely dead.
 Every now and then the corpse stirs and creates excitement. This time enemies of the departed plan to deliver @ final whack. Considering the dry composition of the House, members predict that the new Volstead measure, designed to pro- hibit sale of beer to the sick, will be put through.
 flood of petitions has reached Mir. volstead for and against any added re- strictions. Doctors, including the gen. eral practitioner who still sticks to the old top buggy as a means of reaching the sick, seem to be divided, about 50-50, according to the letters on the question of medical beer. Some have written that it is not needed to help the ailing; others have protested that it was not right to keep the sick man from having a little beer with his meals, for his stomach 2 sake.
 So the committee agreed to hear them all, beginning Thursday. and then MT volstead predicted, put through the bill designed to put medical beer in place all it's own in the Barley corn family graveyard
 Aside from Nr. volstead's tightening up
 
 prohibition are pending. The bill which would permit American ships to sell liquor beyond the three-mile limit will be considered by the merchant marine committee, but the Volstead committee will pass upon the Hill bill to repeal the prohition enforcement act and also the Wood bill transferring actual enforce snent from the treasury to the depart ment of justice.
 There is wide difference of opinion or the question of putting the enforcement xrmy under the attorney general many prohibition leaders believing that there should be no change. The sale of liquor on ships, coastwise vessels excepted. 's being urged on the ground that the American passenger fleet must be put on equal footing with foreign liners if Con- gress hopes to develop it's merchant ma, rine.
 Chairman volstead refused to hazard a guess as to how long the beer hearings might run.

All persons who are in terested tn welfare work have been invited to take part in the conference.

we cannot give namely, gold, the only international money. The solution is not 70 simple as many seem to think. No mechanical means can be conjured up to make it so.
 But foreign rule in Germany would be the most false and the most fatal solution. What was feasible or seemed to be, on the Nile, under primitive eco homie conditions is impossible on the Rhine or in tee Ruhr. in a land of ls0 mines and other industries.
 COOPERATION NEEDED
 Instead of exacting shelter for hun dreds of thousands of Foch's troops. Eu- rope should be cooperating in building workmen's dwellings so that production in the Rhineland and Westphalia could increase Instead of sowing fresh seeds of hatred. engendering the danger of a new conflict and inducing our best tech nicians to emigrate, the peace and safe ty of our mines and laboratories should bc made secure German technical skill which produces tar, dyes, benzol, etc., from coal. so that coke has only a sec ondary value, Is also useful to Germany's creditors
 Only through increased and improved production is reparation possible, and European economic recovery is possi- ble only when the continent again is
 
 from foodstuffs. Germany's consumption has decreased until 1t is now only one fifth what 1t was prior to the war.
 Is this. therefore, the time to entertain plans whose execution would lame the brain and the heart of German indus try? Every politician must have fore seen that America would refuse to arbi- trate. But she has the moral and the economic power to force rational condi- tons on both camps. and this would give the French stronger guarantees against German military aggression than occu- patton of the Ruhr could possibly give. The United States by refusing to help anyone singly would force Europe into a reasonably secure economic situation.
 Nashington's grandchildren could not render greater service to the old con- tinent. And I think the service they would be doing themselves, would not be much less.
