|How Much Beer
DO You Require?
Prohibition Chief Wants
to Know What Sick
Folks Need.

When you are sick what would
you consider a good dose OF wine
or beer, If you prefer such liquids
to drugs?
Prohibition Commissioner Kramer
would like to know. Maybe you
can help the dry" law chief.
The views of physicians particu-
larly is now sought upon this all
absorbing topic among trainers of
dry rules.
Prohibition officials think that
as measure OF regulating dis
tribution of wine and beer for
medicinal purposes, IL may be
necessary for the bureau to indi-
cate to doctors that not more than
two quarts OF wine or one case of
beer should be prescribed at one
time in given case.
Officials said today no effort will
be made in new regulations TO
restrict the number of prescrip-
tions doctors may issue in a given
case. That Is to be left entirely
to the doctors discretion and judg-
ment.
Commissioner Kramer finds thu
issue a knotty one to decide, since
Attorney General Palmer's opinion
upset most of the dry regulations.
Kramer may leave the whole ques-
ton to his successor.

The strictest kind of police regu-

New York Mining Man
Found Frozen to Death
Thomas Ward, Copper Com.
pany Head, Perishes on Trip
From Alaskan Camn

NOME, Alaska, Jan. 19.xThomas
Ward, president and general manager
Of the Ward Copper Company, of New
York, was found frozen to death about
twenty miles from Teller, Alaska, Jan
uary II, according to word reaching
Nome to-day.
Ward left the company's mining
camp, in the inner Seward peninsula,
with an Esquimau man and woman
and two dog teams, en- route to Teller,
reindeer station on Grantly Harbor.
After reaching the top Of the divide
above Teller the three became lost in
the darkness. The Esquimaus said they
decided to go back to cabin they had
seen, but Ward proceeded on alone.
For the next two days, the Esqui-
maus said, they we're stormbound in
the cabin, and on the third day battled
their way into the station, only to
learn that Ward had not arrived. A
searching party started out the next
day, and found Wards sled and dog
team on Dewey Creek. There were evil
dences that Ward had spent the night
there. The temperature during the
night had been 20 degrees below zero.
and Ward was known 20 have only a
robe to protect him from the cold
Members OF the searching party said
Ward evidently had left his team on
the morning of the 18th and started for
Teller, ten miles distant. He probably
became confused, they said, and headed
in the Wronu direction
