his slight frame prevented his engag'

a great devotee of sumo, the japanese
form of wrestling.
Until about three years ago the prince
attended the Peers school, an academy
in Tokyo for the blue-blooded youth OF
Japan. He attended his classes regu

is scheduled to last six months. This
travel by the crown prince is unusual
and important.
1t is the climax of an education
which probably has no like in this age.
For nearly % years the best minds of
Japan have been concerned with his
upbringlng and training.
1t is the first time that a Japanese
emperor or an heir to the throne has
ever left Nippon.
Its Importance lies in the fact that
its results cannot be foreseen, either
upon Hrohito or upon his nation.
For example: Hirohito is educated
and intelligent. But he knows the
world outside of Japan only at second
hand. That outside world must be
seen to be appreciated. What effect
will this appreciation have upon the
man when he shall come to rule over
Japan?

All this is interesting because prece-

of this particular crown prince. He
is the first of his kind to wear specta-

for a Republican to be elected to
congress from the district said
Congressman Lon A. Scott, who has
been elected from this district as a
Republican, to newspaper corre-
spondent in Washington some days
ago.
Il note that this bill is introduced
by Republican, who apparently does
not realize the political significance
q it. Whether or not he does, this
is legislative matter for the general
assembly of Tennessee, and | do not
believe that my friends in the legis-
lature will permit an iniquitous re-
districting law to pass. These re-
districting schemes in retaliation
never did anyone any good, and
everyone who has tried to benefit by
them has, through irony of fate or
otherwise, found that they acted as
boomerangs Should the redis-
tricting bill pass I do not propose
to resort ia any reprisals in regard
to offices that may be filled in Ten

NO BEER AT FOUNTAINS

The Anti-Saloon League, says a
Washington dispatch, is prepared to
fight until the opinion by former
Acknowledgement Palmer holding that
beer may be prescribed as medicine
is overruled, Wayne B. Wheeler, gen.
eral counsel for the league, an
nouncd Saturday in a formal state
ment. The league, he added, has a
number of plans to be used as the ac-
casion demands.
1T is an astounding proposition
that beer can be sold at soda foun-
tains, with all that it implies" Mr..
Wheeler said in reference to a re-
cent statement by the former at
torney- general, as to the effect of his
opinion. "This last statement makes
clearer than ever before the view in
the opinion"
Mr.. Wheeler declared that even if
beer may be prescribed as a medi-
cine, the law required the utmost
care on the part of a physician and
the keeping Of a careful record Of
all prescriptions.
"The records of the doctor and the
druggist are open to inspection" he
continued "No one but licensed
pharmacist may fill the prescription.
The doctor or druggist may have his
permit revoked at any time he vio-
lates the law. Those restrictions
will prevent the sale of of beer at
soda fountains"

BEGINS REVIEW
OF THE DEBS CASE

Attorney-General Daugherty began
Saturday in Washington a review of
the case Of Eugene v. Debs, Socialist
leader, now imprisoned at Atlanta
penitentiary for violation Of the war
time espionage act. The attorney
general received from the pardon at
torney of the department Of justice
the entire Debs record with the view
Of acting on his case within few
days. The review of his case is at
the request of President Harding.
Attorney-General Daugherty told
callers today that he will go thor
oughly into the merits Of the Debs
case, ahead of all other espionage
matters, adding that he considered it
one that demands immediate con-
sideration. The attorney general, it
was said, is making special inquiry
as to the state Of Debs' health, earl
Ter reports Of which were unfavorable.
Attorney General Daugherty said
he had discussed the Debs case with
the president and that he will per-
sonally weigh all factors in the case.
The encouragement said that as he
had not studied the record, he is
unable at this stage to say what his
recommendation may be. In view Of
Debs' record and his i'll health, it is
believed in some quarters that the
attorney-general may recommend
communication of sentence.
