DOCTORS To USE JUDGMENT
Ten Quarts of Beer and TWO Quarts
OF Wine Can Be soid--Amount
of Alcohol Beer May Con-

Notwithstanding bureau of inter-
nal revenue has issued regulations
which will permit the manufacture of
beer. to be prescribed by doctors.
The amount which can be prescrih-
ed at one time is fixed at two and
half gallons, equivalent to one case.
The regulations do not, however,
limit the frequency with which doc
tors may issue beer prescriptions.
Nor do they specify the amount of
alcohol the beer may contain.
The regulations at the same time
authorize doctors to prescribe not
more than two quarts of wine, with
out STIMULATING how often wine may
be prescribed The use of spirituous
liquors ~ WHISTLES, brandies and so
forth--is limited to a pint in 10 days.
The rules mean that patient can
have as much beer and wine as his
doctor thinks he needs. David IA,
Blair, commissioner of internal reve-
nue., said there WAS no time limit ON
the issuance 81 prescriptions except
that of reasonable frequency --.si

medicinal preparations which are fit
for use for beverage purposes as are
authorized to be manufactured, for a

such person, or in case where such
examination is impracticable, upon
the best information obtainable, the
physician Believes that the internal

medicine by such person is necessary
and will afford relief to him from
some known ailment, the regulations

The regulations were issued from
the treasury after long delay, and in,
spite Of the fact a bill is pending in
Congress which would make the use
OF beer as medicine illegal This bill
already has passed the House, but ac-

RAILROAD CRISIS MOVE
Commission Declares Agricultural In
terests Could Not Stand Burden of
Existing Rates.

Washington. A general reduc-
ton in freight rates on hay, grain
and feed in western and inter-mountain
territories was ordered by the inter-
state commerce commission.
This action is one of The first steps
by the government designed to avert
the threatened railroad strike.
The rate reductions average 16 per
cent and are to become effective imme-
diately.
Virtually all rates west of Omaha
and many west of Chicago, through
Minneapolis and other points, are af-
fected by the decision, which brings a
general REIMBURSEMENT of rates in all
of the northwestern territory. Rates
from Chicago east and south are not
affected.
The commission, Ia its decision in
effect, found the agricultural interests
of the country and the grain growers
could not stand the burden Of existing
rates because Of the general loss Ia
value OF their products in relation To
other commodities.
The reductions are but single Item
in the general REIMBURSEMENT and Gown
ward revision of rates contemplated by
the administration to meet acute eco
nolnic conditions and to pass on to the
consumer the wage reduction and other
economies effected on the railroads.
Administration officials hoped that
this rate reduction, held as forerun-
ner of cuts on other commodities
would have some effect on the strike
decision by the railroad broth crhoods.
1t was pointed out that the leaders
of the railroad workers said that the
price Of peacs should include a cut In
freight rates! E
The reductions on wheat and hay
amount to one-half the amounts by
which the commission, July %, this
year, permitted the roads to increase
their rates. The July increases amount
ed 10 IS per cent on the western group
of railroads, IS per- cent on the Pa

"The independence Of Ireland has

larly elected representatives Of the PEG,
pie of ireland and ratified by subse
quent plebiscltes. The troubles be.
tween Ireland and Great Britain have
their source in the fact that the rulers
of Great Britain have sought to i'm
pose their will upon Ireland and by
brute force rob the Irish people OF
their liberty"
The message expresses the desire
the Irish -eople be at peace and friend
ship with the people Of Great Britain,
but adds no consideration would ever
induce the Irish people to abandon
their constancy through persecution
and martyrdom, which, it declares,
have proved the reality of the peoples

their attachment to their national
