Beer to be Manufactured for Medic
j inal Purposes.
Washington, Oct. "a. As un
lexpected as a rainstorm in a des
ert, regulations permitting tn,
manufacture and use of beer fol
medicinal purposes were ISSUED
today by the treasury depart
lment.
/ Withheld since March 3, last,
when former Attorney Genera
Palmer held the use of beer as 3
medicine to be legal under the
prohibition laws, the issuance Of
beer regulations came as a com.
plete surprise to leaders of the
dry forces, who desired they
should not be promulgated until
the senate had acted upon thA
pending anti-beer bill.
Issuance of the beer reguI
lions will cause redoubled efforts
to effect the passage of the anti
beer measures. senate leaders
declared, while Wayne B. Wheel
er, general counsel for the anti
saloon league. described the
treasury's action as less defen-
|sible now than at any other
time. =
Secretary Mellon. in ANNOUNCE
ing the issuance of the beer
rules, declared that the legal
rights of the parties concerned
being plain. the department Isl
unable longer to delay the issu-
ance of these regulations.
The new rules cover compre-
hensively the use of beer and
wines, and spirituous liquors as
medicines. The amount of beer
a physician may prescribe at one
time for the use of the same
person is limited to 211 gallons, |
the equivalent of a easel but mol
limit is placed upon
the number of such prescriptions |
q physician may write or the
same person may obtain within
z given period.
Two quarts Of wine was the
limit put upon a single prescrip-
lion for that beverage. but other
wise the regulations are the same
IS for beer.
Spirituous liquors as limited to-
'ne pint within any ten-day
period and alcohol for external
use was limited to a pint to the
Iame person at one time.
Prescriptions for these medi-
ines may be filed only by a Ii
:ensed pharmacist who is also q
'etail druggist, or a licensed
pharmacist in the employ of al
'etal druggist.
Prescriptions are not Reliable
md the regulations declare that
pharmacist should refuse tot,
Ill any prescription for liquor if
lie has any reason to believe that
physicians are prescribing for
ther than for medical uses, or

KNOW ART OF coNTENTMEN'
Cats Set Excellent Example to the
Restless Men and Women of the
Present Day.

The treasures In the Egyptian sec
ton of the British museum were a
source of great interest to the crown
prince Of Japan during his visit to
London. These rooms are special
favorites of the public, and for the
children the Egyptian cats have a
special fascination. Curious-looking
things they are but they are cats even
if their type Is not Of the type of the
present day.
The Egyptians looked upon the cat
as the very symbol of contentment.
and all who know a hearth where
cat sits before the fire will agree with
them, and since contentment Is a
good thing, the cat should be in de-
mand at the pressot time. Madam
Puss certainly sets an example Of
making the best of things. In Lon
don drawing-room workwoman was
left alone to fit some chintz covers on
the chairs. When she was going she
looked at cat on the rug by the fire,
and said, at Is a very friendly cat;
it did not at all resent me being here"
The mistress Of the house glanced
at the cat and replied, Il am glad 1t
gave you a welcome, but as matter
of fact it is as much a stranger as you
are. I have never seen it before. 1t
must belong to some people who have
recently left the neighborhood, and as
there is no fire to sit by at present in
its own home, 1t contentedly goes TO
the next place where 1t finds one, and
not only makes itself at home but
evidently makes other people feel AT
home, too."-Christian Science Moni-
tor.

Settling a Complicated Question.

One Of the quesrest requests that
has reached state officials for several
months is a petition signed by eight
beekeepers at Kale, No. asking that
owners of sorghum mill nearby be re-
quested to screen the mill so as to
prevent great loss to the petitioners
because Of the death Of their bees af-
ter visiting the mill. After long and
tortuous journey through federal and
state boards, the petition finally
reached the board Of agriculture, and
Jewell Mayes replied that after a care
full search of the statutes he believes
the beekeepers have no recourse at
law, but are liable themselves under
the statutes prohibiting trespassing.-

Stripping Hemp by Machinery.

Many hemp-stripping machines of a
simple type are In operation on the
hemp plantations of the Davao gulf
region Of Mindanao, and two three
horsepower oil engines connected with
sets of four stripping machines each
have recently been Installed in that
region. The machines pull the hemp
over knife In much the same man"
ner that 1t is cleaned by hand. They
are comparatively inexpensive and are
operated by one man. With the aid of
one of the machines one worker can
strip plcul (about 40 pounds) Of
fiber in a day, which would be large
amount of work for one week II done
by hand.

BOYS PROVED THEIR HONESTY
Small New York News Vendors "Made
Good" Without Having Given
Promissory Notes.

One of the great New York news
papers pays an astonishing tribute to
the young merchants who sell its wares
upon the streets. This newspaper,
like practically every other, printed
an extra" after the big Jersey City
prize fight. When the papers arrived
at Times square the young man whose
business 1t was to sell them to the
newsboys, taking their cash in return,
found himself overwhelmed by an
eager flock Of youngsters who grabbed
the papers as fast as he could open
the bundles and raced away to dis
pose Of them without going through
the usual formality of paying for their
stock.
Many boy could have kept all the
money he received as profit and neg
lected to pay for his papers, but, so
the paper declares, as soon as the
storm of selling was over the boys re-
turned to the neighborhood and set
tied, until the cash turned in was ex-
actly what 1t should have been for
the number Of papers sent out from
the Office of publication.
That was only ordinary honesty, it
is true, but a kind of honesty met
with seldom enough to be uncommon.
Yet it would be expected by those
who are familiar with newsboys. The
newsboy doesn't expect to be cheated,
and he certainly doesn't intend to
cheat anybody. More power to him.

The Dinner Pail Brigade.

Some people and some newspapers
give more time and attention to re-
ligious and political akirs than they
DO to home industries and pay rolls.
They seem to think the bread-and-
butter problems and the dinnerpail
brigade are of less consequence than
speculations on what particular
brand of erring citizens shall shovel
coal into the rhinestone furnaces in
the next world. Just the same It
Will be noticed that the newspapers
that give some space to home in
dustries are not so near a starvation
basis for advertising.

A Blessing to World.

The specific proposals of Sec'y
Hughes for the limitation of navaI
ornaments by the three chief neval
powers have been accepted in prin.
ciple by the representatives of Great
Britain and Japan. Apparently
there is general confidence that a
definite agreement will be reached
for the execution of the plans in de-
tail.
Reduction in governmental ex-
pendftures in consequence of limita-
ton of ornaments would be a ire
mendous encouragement to indus
tries, alleviate present tax burdens
and would furnish the psychological
background for development by utfl-
ization of economic resources for
conservation of life and creation of
new wealth.

IDAHO STATE AUTOMOBILE
ASSOCIATION

At the annual meeting OF TIL,
IDAHO State Automombile Associa
ton, held at the Dewey Palace Hote
in the City of Nampa, November
l21st, 1921, the following Director:
were elected: w. H. Gibson, Noun
tain Home; Robert A. Davis, Jr.
INampa; ]. A. McDermond, Poca'
ltello; R. B. Greenwood, American
Fallsl C. F. Mann, Boise; A. j
.Grosscup, Nampa; Bernard East
man, Payette; P. C. Meredith, Buhl;
V. t. Craig, Emmett: H. w. L. Me
meyer. Nampa; H. G. Fuller, Ash
ton; R. w. Sheppard, Idaho Falls;
Eugene B. Sherman, Boise; Eustace
Smallwood, Nampa and Jay CALI
gan, Caldwell.
During the year the work of the
Associa ton has developed very
rapidly. The Secretary's report,
among other things, showed that
I 500 miles of highways have been
signed with the Yellow Diamond,
the official Highway sign of all the
western automobile associations; the
distribution of over 10000 strip and
state maps, the promotion of the
good roads movement in various
sctions of the State. The Board of
Directors unanimously approved
movement to create an Idaho emit
rance to Yellowstone Park from
which point necessarily the bulk of
the tourist traffic must come into
Idaho. This section of the Yellow
tone park and of Idaho presents
some of the most wonderful scenery
in all Yellowstone Park.
Another thing for consideration
is a proposed road race for the
season of 1922, in the interest of
the good roads movement.
Membership campaign are under
way in various sections of the
State and it is proposed that during
1922 the touring and mapping SER
vice be extended and that at least
1000 miles of road be signed and
that the automobile owners be in
formed as to what this work really
means, not only to the automobile
owner himself but in the interest of
the State of Idaho generally. The
office of the Association is now To-
Gated at No. 16, 18th Avenue South
on the State Highway in the City of
Sound Industrial Principles.
Sound American requires as
fundamental principle that indus
tries be fred from restrictions and
determinations as to employment.
Independent and organized labor
should both be employed regardless
of membership or non-membership
in lodge, church, class or labor
union.
Instead of an employer dealing
with outside representatives who
have no interest in industry, en-
ployers should deal directly with
aborers.
Thus only can an efficient, loyal,
gell-paid, contented force of en-
oloyes with real esprit de corps for
he industry be built up.
There should be no discrimination
against organized labor and there
mould be no interference with legi-
innate industries or business.

How Shall IhaY Park2

Akron, o., recently, by ordinance,
eliminated all angular automobile
parking, with the result that accidents

Who Owns q GlacIer7

When the retreat Of a glacier leaves
a piece of ground uncovered, whose is
It? The states, says the law of France
and of Italy. The canton's, says the
general law of Switzerland. But in
the Grisons the commune Is held to
own both the glacier and the ground
1t covers, so that body like parish
council often possesses some millions
of tons Of good blue ice.-Manchester

In q letter published in tbs
Spokesman-Review at Spokane, Bart
lett Sinclair of Boise, points GU
Senator W. E. Borah OF Idaho, is tht
man responsible for the presen
arms parley.
The letter follow:
To the Editor of The Spokesman
Review: In a recent Washington
Associated Press dispatch the inter
esting question; who evolved the
American proposals for naval lin
itation?" is propounded.
The answer to the question, the
Identification of the author OF the
proposal for naval limitation, al
most 10 of minor historical value.
The essential inquiry is. to whom
il credit due for the conference for
naval limitation now in session at
Washington? From historical
standpoint this act is of transcendent
Importance.
At this time that conference prom
ises to usher into the world new
and better era, better and more
Christian-like civilization. The mere
phraseology of the invitations to
foreign powers, or the mere phrase
ology of the purposes this govern
ment had in view when issuing the
invitations can be little more than
an incident
As to these matters there may be
doubt, but as to the authorship of
the resolutions providing for the
conference there is and can be no
uncertainty.
Idaho, one of the smallest of the
states, is proud of the distinction
that In the brain and heart of her
senior senator was conceived this
comprehensive scheme for the re-
duction OF ornaments and conse-
Quently the lessening of chances of
future war.
The Borah disarmament resolu-
ton. requesting the president to in
vlte certain foreign countries to send
representatives to the conference to
form an agreement "by which the
naval expenditure and building pro-
grams" shall be substantially re-
duced, fs the sole authority for this
conference now so apparently preg-
nant OF good.
The resolution was offered by Mr.. /
Borah As an amendment to the naval /
appropriation bill April Is, 1891
and unanimously passed. The pres
ident thereafter, On July 10, in com |
phance with the resolutions, sent out
Inc invitations for the conference
