ANTEBEER BILL.
MARKS NEW STEP
HAYNES SAYS 1T HELPS HIS
FORCES-PROHIBITION COM.
MISSIONER SAYS NO EMBAR.
RASSMENT WILL COME FROM
MEASURES PROVISIONS. =.

Washington, Nov. 24.-Passage of
anti-beer bill ''marks a new step for
ward in the enforcement of prohi-
bition," Commissioner Haynes said
tonight in formal statement.
The act, he said, strengthened the
hands of the prohibition forces in
dealing with the alleged medicinal
preparations sold on the open market
and used for beverage purposes and
also limits the activities of "the few
physicians" who were issuing pre-
scriptions for liquor to people not ac-
tually requiring it.
"No embarrassment in the en-
forcement of prohibition" Mr.. Hay
mes said, "is anticipated from the
provision imposing penal liability
upon officers searching dwelling with
out warrants and searching other
property without warrants malicious
ly and without reasonable cause. The
officers are given fair warning that
they must not search dwellings with
out warrants and no attempts to do
so will be made. 1t will be a very rare
case in which, under the act, an Of
ficer can be prosecuted on account of
the search of other property. Before
case against an officer can be sus-
tained it will be necessary to show
not only that the officer did not have
a warrant but that he acted malici-
ously and without probable cause.
"It, therefore, appears that so long
as prohibition officers have reason
ablbe ground for suspecting a viola
ton of the prohibition act they can
not be punished for searching prop
erty other than a dwelling without
warrant. No substantial decrease in
the activities of prohibition officers
is anticipated as the result of the new
act and am entirely confident that
the United States attorneys and the
department of justice are not going
to institute proceedings against offic-
ers except in the case of wilful and
wanton search by an officer without
reasonable grounds for doing So"

CHINA THREATENS
TO LEAVE PAR[EY
REPRESENTATIVES OF CHINESE
REPUBLIC INTIMATE THAT If
BRITISH VIEW AFFECTING
IMPORTS is ACCEPTED THEY
ARE DONE.

Washington, Nov. 24.-The Far
Eastern negotiations, complicated by
a disagreement over the meaning of
the four general principles now
adopted will again become the live
issue of the armaments conference
when it resumes work tomorrow af-
ter the Thanksgiving holiday.
How acute the divergence of view
over application of the four chief
principles might become was proble-
matical tonight but the Chinese
seemed to regard it as a fundamen-
tai obstacles to complete agreement
regarding the status of their coun-
try. Some officials of the Chinese
delegation even went so far as to
say there would be nothing for them
but withdrawal from the conference
should an Interpretation of the Brit
ish receive full approval Of the pow
ers.
The view held with apparent un-
animity by the delegates of all the
nations concerned, however, was
that the issue would be handled as
to preclude such an empasse for the
present at least.
The specific matter selected for
discussion tomorrow is China's de-
mand for abolition Of the system Of
"extra territoriality" under which
the foreign powers have set up their
own county within China to handle
cases in which their respective ma
tionals are involved. All of the ma
tions represented here have indicated
their Sympathetic interest" in the
Chinese request yet it has been seen
that even some of the Chinese dele
gates themselves DO not DelleVe tne
present condition of the Chinese
courts would make the change pos
sible.
Meantime naval experts will con-
tinue their work on details of the
American reduction plan and the
land armament negotions will wait
for the more pressing topics of dis
cussion to be handled. ub-commit-
teer will be organized to begin prob
of such collateral issues as airplanes,
gas, and the rules of warfare but if
a comprehensive plan for land arma-
ment limitation is to be worked out
at all it will be n a later stage of the
conference.

JAIL SENTENCES
IN TILE COMBINE.
FOUR CONVICTED MEN MUST
SERVE-GOVERNMENT PROS.
ECUTORS PREPARE TO PRESS.
ATTACK ON OTHER ALLEGED
LAW VIOLATORS. .

New York, Nov. 24.-Fortifed by
the Jail sentences imposed today by
federal Judge Van Fleet upon MEM
bers of the tile combine, government
prosecutors were preparing tonight to
press their attack upon other alleged
members of the building trust whose
indictment followed searching inquiry
by the Lockwood legislative commit
tee.
United States Attorney Hayward
expressed elation at the bit Of trust
smashing history written by Judge
Van Fleet when he ordered to the
Essex county Jail in New Jersey four
of the 10 defendants who pleaded.
guilty recently to violating the Sher-z
man act. Having pleaded guilty, Mr..
Hayward announced the quartet could
not appeal, so that it appeared to be,
their fate to be the first violators Of
the Sherman law actually to be put
behind bars since the measure was
enacted in 1890.
Before pronouncing sentence Judge
Van Fleet expressed belief that a
mere fine would not serve as a deter.
rent. He added, however, that the jail
sentences were shorter than would
have been if the defendants by plead
ing guilty had not saved the govern
ment a long and expensive trial. Com
ing before Judge Van Fleet later are
alleged members of the building trust
who have stood by their pleas Of not
guilty. S.
Mr.. Hayward, who recently an
nounced that the government had
only begun it's drive against corpora
tions and individuals held accounts
BILE for the acuteness of the housing
shortage all over the country, assert
ed tonight that he considered evil.
dence against other groups still to
come to trial even stronger than that
which had caused members of the
tile combine to change their pleas to
guilty.

Flicker Tales
By j. e. TINT

THE LOVE OF FINE RAIMEST.
When Mendelssohn was swelling for
the stately Wedding March.
And lighter notes were rising for the
dance,
John was awkward. stiff and sweaty
in his linen and his starch
And respondent in new .twenty-dolLaf
pants!
| When the twins were duly chriStened
on a lovely Easter morn
He wore a grin Of wonderful ex-
panse;
He was proud as any papa of his du-
l.. pie eldest born
But prouder of his ~twenty-dollar
pants!
When Jimmy graduated in the deco
His %eloquence held patrons in a
trance; ~
His father sat and gloried in the tri-
umph of it all,
But his mind was on his twen1y-dol-
lar pants!
When Mendelssohn was sounding for
another Wedding March.
With Susie in a happy, golden trance,
Her father gave her, proudly meath a
lovely wedding arch,
And again he wore his twenty-doliar
pants!
A grandpa, old and honored, he APP
preached a peaceful end
The light was slowly fading from his
glance;
Il will rest a little better" low. he
muttered to a friend.
"If I'm buried in my t~wenty-dollar
pants!' =
