VOTES MILLION AND
HALF TO CHECK DRINK
AFTER BITTER DEBATE THE
HOUSE AGREES ON SUM AL
READY FIXED BY SENATE.
FOR COST TILL FIRST OF JULY
Declaration Is Made That Prohibition
lists Get Their Way as Often as
Gompers. Charges Flew Thick and
Fast in the Discussion.

WASHINGTON, D. C.-Friends
OF prohibition enforcement in the
house today won another battle to
keep liquor beyond the reach OF those
not permitted to handle or drink it.
After flare-up that threw the house
into bitter debate, toward the close OF
a peaceful holiday session, the prohibit
ton forces rallied followers and put
through motion directing conferees
on the deficiency bill to give the gov
ernment $l,400,000 to break up the
liquor traffic from now until July l.
1t was the top figure discussed.
Before the vote was taken, however,
charges flew thick. Chairman Good, OF
the appropriations committee, declar-
ed enforcement agents openly are
winking at the laws violation. Repre-
sentative Volstead, author of the en-
forcement act, came back with the
charge that an attempt was being made
to break down the machinery OF en-
forcement through failure to provide
adequate appropriations.
Calling Wayne Wheeler, general
counsel for the Anti-Saloon League,
by name, Mr. Good declared even this
champion OF prohibition believed there
were too many men on the rolls OF the
internal revenue bureau who were
winking at violations of the law.
Il have talked with Wayne Wheel
err, who sends his commission to this
house where men nod to him as they
nod to Samuel Gompers and vote
money out OF the treasury whether
they want it or not" Mr.. Good de
clared. Mr.. Wheeler will tell you the
same thing he has told me, that there
are more vets than drys i'll the bu-
reau, and yet he comes and demands
that you vote more money for them.
Mr.. Wheeler, leaning over the gal
lery rail, looked down and smiled.
Il resent the charge" Mr. Good
continued that members of the ap-
preparations committee are not in ia
vor OF strict enforcement OF the law.
More than two thousand employees OF
the bureau are not standing up for the
law"
Representative Volstead declared
that unless adequate funds were pro-
vided Immediately big part OF the
force would have to be dropped.
Representative Barley, democrat
of Kentucky, told the house that tax
of ~ cents was imposed on every
man, woman and child to keep the
nation dry, and that there were not
enough agents. He proposed that the
house accept the senate total OF ST.
100000 giving the revenue bureau
100000 more than the house first au-
thorized.

CHICAGO.-Has the prohibition
era made the dances more naughty?
The question was asked of leading
psychologists, alienists, dancing in
structors, moralists and others today,
following the report of the Juvenile
Protective Association that more OBJ
iectionable dances are now being wit
messed in the dance halls than ever
before. The report was based on an
investigation of so dance halls.
Answers in a majority of the cases

explained.

pleasure from a man he will find COM
pensation in another" declared DIR.

John, Jr., is a son of the Ameri-
can Revolution because his great
neutrality-suspicious. passed
through the enemy's line with an
important message to General Wash
ington.
He did not exactly deliver the
message. Being intercepted by the
enemy, he swallowed it. Unwritten
history has not left behind either
the size of the document or that Of
the messengers mouth.

do" said Master John, talking over
the gravity of the present situation
with the grocer boy: ''When they
know something the Germans are
hanging around to hear they've got
to swallow it."

Bones for the Tuberculosis.
Bones as a diet for human beings
may sound rather strange, but in cases
of tuberculosis Doctor Berthier OF
Paris has found them highly beneficial,
1t is the spongy or cancellous parts Of
veal bones that he uses. These are
about one-half ossein, which is laden
with phosphates and carbonates of
lime, these salts being much needed
by tuberculous persons, who always
suffer from rehabilitation.
Doctor Berthier describes in bull
letin of the Academic de Medicine
how he prepares the bones. He Sc
lects the short, spongy bones, splits
them, boils them with vegetables, salt
and a piece of meat for almost six
hours and then lets his patients pick
out with their forks as much of the
soft bony matter as they can.
Another benefit derived from the
bones is that they help to prevent de-
cay OF the teeth.
