Hartford, March 22.-After hearing a number of prohibition law cases in the United States district court here today, Judge Harlan B. Howe of Vermont said that he thought the procedure was too slow. With hundreds of cases on the dockets, he said, there should be two juries on duty in the court, to alternate in hearing evidence and deliberating.
 The first case to go to the jury here was that of Arthur P6rgluica of New Haven, charged with transporting 25 cases of liquor. A federal agent was the only witness for the government. The jury deliberated 15 minutes and found Porgluica not guilty
 Other cases included: Victor Debolick of Jewett City. fined $1o0; Louis Vicchi and Stephen Zolt of Bridgeport $25 each; William Knightley of Waterbury, $500; John Lonergan of Waterbury, $50 Pietro Whilemena of Bridgeport, $50.

Capper,s Appeal for Farmers

Senator Capper of Kansas, in an
address in the United States Senate,
warned the Administration that unless
the railroads of the country put traf-
fic charges on Give and let live" basis
a return to Government operation, if
not ownership, was inevitable.
''When railroads" said the Senator,
''get more for hauling farm products
than the poducers are paid for pro-
ducing them, it is evident that freight
rates are relatively too high. And that
is chiefly what is the matter with the
railway situation at the present time.
Rates higher than the traffic will bear
have made a difference of a million
freight cars in the amount of shipping
this country is doing. Six months ago
there was a shortage of half a million
cars. At the close of April this year
all of these cars were idle. Need there
be more convincing argument that
lower rates must preeede business
recovery"
Senator Capper is Republican and
is familiar with the troubles of the
farmer, especially in the West. What
he says therefore cannot be attributed
to partisan politics but is because he
knows agricultural interests are suf-
fering from a serious condition
brought on largely by exorbitant
freight rates.
The old slogan of the railroads used
to be: "All the traffic will bear"
They seem now to have made the mis-
take of adopting the ruinous one of
''More than the traffic will bear"
Senator Capper says the railroads
should be willing, like the farmers, to
suffer some losses until business re-
wives. He asks that the Interstate
Commerce Commission be directed by
Congress Immediately to reduce rail
road rates so that normal traffic may
be restored for the good of the coun-
try.-From The Times-Union, AL

BEAUTY COMES BEFORE ART
Average Citizen Is Not Student Of
What the Interior Decorator
Puts First

While there undoubtedly is an in
stinctive love for the beautiful in art
and nature. the average man or wOm-
an does not greatly interest himself
or herself in matters of art says a
writer in an Eastern journal. They
do not study such subjects or seek
information unless they become in
tereSted through some prime motive.
Once there is created an interest in
and desire for better things. how
ever, they put forth every effort to
learn more Of those things that tend
TO beautify the home.
In most cases this interest can be
aroused effectively through eye APP
peal People must see things with
their eyes. Comparatively few per
sons reason with their minds alone
Imagination and construction by men
tai process is not a common attribute.
That is one of the reasons why the
interior decorator is called upon by
people who can afford to employ such
expert service.
Incidentally. il has been aptly said
that if the average interior decorator
would descend from the high horse of
lofty ideals and absurd fallacy Of so
called "claSS" and let people know he
can count dollars I'm hundreds as well
as in thousands. there would be a ire
mendOuS impulse and Increase of real
usefulness in this honorable profess
sion.
