CALIFORNIA RECORD
 MONTH OF MARRIAGES
,By International News Service,


 SACRAMENTO, Cal, Aug. 9.-Juue marriages in California this year broke all records in the history of the state for any single month, to. talling approximately $500, accord ing to an announcement of L. F. Ross, head of the state board of vi. tai statistics.
 Cupid's feat in leading more cou. pies to the marriage altar this June than in the corresponding month last year is considered highly re- markable by the statistician as many romances which were interrupted by the World war had their culmina. tion in the favorite month of 1920. In June last year 5,41S couples were married, this setting a record at that time.
 Ross also announced that mar. riages generally are on the increase, there having been approximately 500 more in the first months of this year than in the same period of 1920.

ANOTHER TEST WET MEASURE
 SEEMS LIKELY

iby international News SerVtCe)
 WASHINGTON, Aug. 9.-Another supreme court test of the constitu. tional limits of the prohibition law is now inevitable, since the senate has decided to outlaw "madicinaT' beer
 Opponents of tho Willis-Campbeil anti-beer bill asserted that the meas ure will be declared unconstitutional They declared that the national pro hlbition act gives to congress no au. thority to interdict the manufacture or sale of liquors of any kind for "non-beyerage purposes"
 Many senators, in fact, strong in their antagonism to the anti-beer bill. pointed out what seemed to them its absudities. That it win not stand the test of the courts was their prediction.
 Review of the provisions of the na- tional prohibition act, ratified by the legislatures of most of the states, left to the government, in it's enforce ment work, no power to prohibit purely medicinal liquors, whether spirituous or malt, according to the contention of these senators.
 Dry" leaders, however, in this as h other matters are irreconcilable. and they are willing to take their chances on having the new law thrown out by the courts. If it goes through the long process of litiga- >tion. through appeal from one court to another of course the dry will win an advantage, which may be considered important, even if it shall be only temporary.
 This discussion of the merits of the anti-beer bill, which has brought about a sharp realignment of opin- ion in congress, is entirely aside from the pros and cons of prohibi. tion from the moral viewpoint It ti4ay oS coiu, too, that SuIIfe Ol JuG governments chief legal advisers take the view that the senate, fol- lowing the lead of the house, which rode rough shod over all opposition that presented itself. has gone too Tar in the move to further raise the restrictions against alcoholic liquors, which doctors should be left free, in their judgment. to prescribe for known ailments.
 Of course, these opponents of the new beer legislation recognized that the prohibition law conferred extra. ordinary powers upon enforcement officials in the matter of regulating the medicinal" traffic. which. they say, Is clearly legalized by the na. tional act. But this authority, 1t is held. was given to govern permits and other procedure set up to sur. round the handling of medicinal liquors.
 Wet" leaders admit that congress
The Cordova daily times., 1921-08-09

can go to any length to prohibit H. quors for beverage" purposes, but say that congress has over.leaped its constitutional powers in Interfering with proper use of "non.beverage" liquors of any kind. Although the "wets" have been beaten all the way in their many court contests over the dry" laws they are still alive and active and now stand ready. 1t is un. derstood, to launch the new attack alleging the unconstitutionality of anti-beer legislation, and with the objective.

REIMBURSEMENT IS AFFECTING
 POSTOFFICES
,By International News scrvIcc)

,By International News servIcc)
 WASHINGTON, Aug 9.-Post-war readjustment at the larger post of. fices throughout the country is to begin at once according to detailed instructions that have been sent to about 10000 postmasters by the post office department. These instruc, tions called attention to the acute financial condition of the country and to the urgency of meeting the desire of the president for economy in public expenditures as far as pos sible in the postal service.
 While aiming at extravagant and vpensive methods which crept in during and immediately after the war, positive instructions have been given to postmasters to keep con- stantly in mind that the service must not be curtailed or impaired
 Plans for the reduction in expendi- lures at post offices. which will amount to approximately $5,O0O, 900 out of the S15,OOO 900 to be saved in postal expenditures for the current fiscal year, have been under way for several months. Careful comparisons of expenditures with the receipts and business transacted have been made. Business and receipts at many offices doubled and trebled. in- cident to the war, and clerical and carrier forces were increased ac. cordingly, including extraordinary ex- penditures for auxiliary aud substi. tute service. AS well as for overtime The general survey of postal condi lions shows that. while this emer- gency has long since passed and with population and business greatly lessened at many of these larger of fices, there are few that have made any appreciable curtaiment in ex- penditures or voluntarily surrendered any clerks or carriers. On the other hand, the general survey shows, ex- penditures for auxiliary help have continued unstinted, overtime has ap. parently been unnecessarily em- ployed, and repeated requests have been made for additional clerks and carriers.
 Postmasters are asked to consider the revision of schedules of clerks and carriers; the shifting of forces from one section to another, ac- cording to the volume of work, and to arrange the work of the office so as to avoid the necessity for over time work. as we'll as to carefully scrutinize all miscellaneous ex- penses of their offices.
 Public participation in this ef- fort to save at post offices Is sug- gested by use of mail receptacles at residences and business houses. Early mailing, facing of mail, use of precanceled stamps and simple rout- ing of mail by heavy users of the mail are urged as an aid to economy, as we'll as in the quick dispatch of mail.
