SHOWS SLIGHT DECREASE

DETROIT, Feb. 2.-Seventy thousand
men, or 20 per cent. of the number
working in factories in the Detroit area
a year ago, now have employment, ac
cording to an industrial survey today
by the Employers association, made
public by G. w. Grant, secretary.
Approximately half of the men are
working On half time. Normally these
factories employ 80 workers.
The employers survey placed the
number of unemployed at 100000 which
does not include seventy thousand be-
ieved to have LETT since December.
The net gain in employment as com
pared to week ago, amounts to ap
proximately 5000, and was accounted
for largely by the partial resumption
of operations of the Ford Motor com

BARS REMOVAL
OF STORED LIQUOR
No Permits Will Be Honored
for Withdrawals Of Booze
from Warehouses
PUTS BAN ON TRAFFIC

WASHINGTON, Feb doors Of
distilleries and bonded warehouses in
every state, Hawaii and Porto Rico
were ordered indefinitely closed against
liquor Withdrawals today by Prohibit
tion Commissioner Kramer. Wholesale
dealers were ruled out of further parti-
cipation in the sale of Intoxicating bev-
erages by Attorney General Palmer.
Commissioner Kramer s order and the
attorney general s Interpretation of tho
Volstead act, prohibition officials said,
mean the elimination Of the wholesale
liquor dealers and make possible the
prevention Of "bottlegging' through
forged permits and illegal disposal Of
intoxicants.
The stoppage Of liquor Withdrawals
was in extension of the order issued
last week putting ban on removal in
not apply to Withdrawals of industrial
alcohol or reasonable quantities of
sacramental wines, and makes an cxcep-
ton in the case of retail druggists, who
are permitted to make Withdrawals up
to five cases of liquor at time.
Warming against attempts to obtain
whiskey despite the ban was sent out
by Commissioner Kramer, who directed
all owners of distilleries and warehous-
es not to honor permits for whiskey
Withdrawals purporting to be issued
by any state director" No such appi-
cations are being approved, he said,
adding that failure to comply with tho
notice would deprive dealers of their
licenses to hold their stocks.
Mr.. Palmer s opinion was said by
revenue bureau officials to constitute
the authority on which the closing or
ders were issued.
Wholesale liquor dealers, the attor-
ney general held, are entitled to dispose
of their warehouse receipts for liquor
stored in bonded warehouses to manu-
facturers and wholesale druggists, "bdt
the right to withdraw said liquors from
bonded warehouses is granted to MANI
facturers and wholesale druggists only.
AS to the authority of the prohibition
commissioner to issue permits to sell
liquor in wholesale quantities. he had
that power, was limited to manufactur-
ers and wholesale druggists.
With respect to industrial alcohol,
Mr.. Palmer held the authority to issue
permits for its disposal in wholesale
quantities were limited to manufactur-
ers and wholesale druggists, if the al
cohol was fit for beverage purposes,
but not if it were denatured.
at is obvious" he declared, "that
the concentration of the liquor business
in the hands of few is well calculated
to render more simple and effective the
of the business within prop
er and legal channels.''
Liquor now in commercial ware
houses, however, prohibition officials
explained, is exempt from the attorney
generals ruling, and Commissioner
Kramer's ban, since such liquor is con-
sidered in the possession of the owner.

LOSES FINGER.

While playing with a power saw at
the c. ii. King home on Eighth street

fortune to injure his fingers.
After his hand was bandaged he was
taken to the doctor, who found it neces-

A WELL DESERVED TRIBUTE.

The people of this section have
watched with much interest and regret
the failing condition of Judge J. M.
Downing, for many years practicing
lawyer of Aspen, and later represen-
tative in the legislature from Pitkin
county.
Mr.. Downing has been blind for sew
eral years, and since the death few
years ago of his devoted wife, and later
of his daughter, upon whom he was SO
greatly dependent while moving about
and attending to his legislative and
other business duties, his health has
failed rapidly, and during the past year
enc of his relatives in Pueblo, and for
the greater part of the time he has
been bedridden.
Recently Senator Callen of this dis
trict and Representative Gilbert of
Pitkin county drafted a resolution of
sympathy for Mr.. Downing, which was
passed by both houses, as will be seen
by the following portion of the senate
record:
The following message was received
from the House:
Denver, January 25, 1921.
To the Honorable the President of the
Senate:
Sir;-J am instructed to inform your
honorable body that the House of Rep
resentatives has adopted H. j.. R. No. Q,
by Mr.. Gilbert and Senator Callen.
Whereas, Judge James M. Downing
Of Pueblo, a member of the Twenty
first and Twenty second General AS
semblies, by reason of long and distin-
guished public service has endeared
himself to the people Of Colorado, and
Whereas, Judge Downing is now to-
tally blind and lying bedridden in his
home in Pueblo;
Therefore, Be 1t Resolved, by the
House of Representatives of the State
of Colorado, the Senate concurring,
That we hereby extend to Judge Down
ing our best wishes and sincere sym
pathy in his hour of affliction; and
Be It Resolved, That this resolution
be printed in Journals of the House Of
Representatives and the Senate, and q
copy thereof be forwarded to Judge
James M. Downing.
Respectfully,

Athletic club Of Downers Grove. a

As a result every st. Joseph batter
tries to hit a homerun and all bases
on balls have beer refused.
