Real Beer Won't Be Made in
Famous Beer City.
Plants That Made Name

- Milwaukee, Wis. March 24.-There
was much doubt here today whether
Milwaukee would ever again become
beer famous, unless the eighteenth
amendment was found unconstitutional
Officials of the former great beer
plants don't care to talk about pos
sibilities" of beer being sold as medi-
cine thru doctors, wholesale druggists
and then retail druggists before it
reaches the consumer. Beer could not
be made in large quantities, it is claim
ed, and the many men with finger in
the sale would make the price pretty

say they want more than Palmer rul-
fngs before they put out the real stuff
1t is known that the one ruling, as
announced yesterday, would hold back
brew from the local plants. That was
that real beer could not be made in
the same plant as near beer.
@f'Such a ruling would make it almost
necessary for the local plants to erect
new buildings, and it is very doubtful
il that would be done for the little
business. they say, would result. Part
of the buildings of the bigger brew
cries here have been leased to other
firms and the few buildings still in
their hands are being used for making
near beer and other soft drinks. Mill
waukee is pinning its hopes for real
beer on the supreme court.

XII kLUX KHAN BRANDS
 NEGRO WITH SYMBOL
Black Alleged to Have Been Found in Room with White Woman
 Handled By Mob.

Dallas, April "A mob of fifteen masked men last night seized Alex Johnson, negro alleged to have been found in white woman's room at a hotel, carried him out of the city and after horsewhipping him and branding into his forehead the symbol of the Ku Klux Klan, re- leased him on the main Dallas street as warning to other negroes"
 The symbol, K. K. K., were painted on his forehead with acid. He was released near the hotel where the al legged offense was declared to have been committed and he was told to tell the other employees what had happened to him.
 Two newspaper men were kidnap- ped and blindfolded and commanded to aat as press agents for the affair.
 The trial of the negro was con- ducted in the manner described in stories of the followers of the fiery cross in post civil war days.
 The negro stood with rope around his neck under tree and the space was lighted by single flashlight. During the questioning which fol- lowed he is alleged to have confessed intimacy with the white woman.
 Twenty-Five lashes were applied but he was not otherwise injured except the burning of the initials on his forehead.
 The mob seized Johnson at his home after he had been releases on vagrancy charge, following the alleged finding of him in the wo- mans room.

THE LOWLY GOOBER.

Peanuts are a drug on the market just now. That's because they are not eaten largely in cold weather, but with the coming of the robin, which is a harbinger of spring, cir cuses, and the opening of summer re- sorts, peanut shippers look for in- creased consumption, which may mean higher prices. In round fig ures 900,000,000 pounds were im- ported from Asia last year. About 50,000,000 pounds of roasted pea nuts are consumed annually, say marketing experts of the Bureau of Markets, United States Department of Agriculture.
 Few of the fond papas and mann mas who buy Johnnie or Mary bag of peanuts at the circus know that more than 100 different methods of utilizing peanuts, including the mak- ing of fancy dyes and wood stains, peanut milk. coffee, and ice cream, have been devised although few of i these products are sold commercially i But peanut oil, peanut candy, peanut butter, salted peanuts, peanut cook ies, roasted peanuts, and peanuts in a number of other forms run up the annual American per capita consump tion to 8 1-2 pounds. Every time certain soaps are used the consumer is partaking of his 1-2 pounds.
 Fully half of the peanuts grown in the Southern Ststes are fed to hogs. Large quantities of peanuts are exported also, 1,074,007 pounds having gone out of the country dur ing the month of January alone. Of this quantity 78 per cent went to Canada, where the peanut enjoys co-popularity with the clover. Cuba took 14 per cent, Jamaica 2 per cent, and Bermuda 1 per cent.

GERMANY DUMPING
 GOODS IN BELGIUM
By R. H. SHEFFIELD

United Press Staff Correspondent
 BRUSSELS. (By Mail. )-In a formal note addressed to the Bel gian government, the Belgian Fed eration of Contractors charges Ger many with perfecting gigantic sys- tenn of dumping. This is declared to be so formidable that no industry outside of Germany can fight against it unless determined and rapid act ion are taken at once.
 It is further charged that the whole financial power of the German state has been placed at the disposal of German industry, enabling German firms to grant the most liberal kind or terms in the way of long time credits. This is protection the Bel gian contractors declare.
 This incident arose betweent the Belgian government and the Belgian Federation of Contractors, when the government recently accepted Ger man proposal to supply rolling stock for the Belgian State Railways.
 Incorporated in the protest is a denunciation of governmental policy in ordering German goods at an ap- parent saving of 1S,000,000 francs when, it is declared, Belgium will in the long run stand to lose 21 1,000,000 francs by reason of unemployment and soforth.
 The protest declares it is false policy to consider soley and wholly the mere question of lowness of price and quickness of delivery and makes plea for government assist ance for strictly national industries, now suffering for scarcity of for eign orders, therby making local busi- ness all the more valuable.
 By awarding government .orders to a foreign country, the protest points out, Belgium is deprived of valuable source of revenue at a time when it is badly needed.

FOR CHRISTIAN EDUCATION

Recently the Methodist Mission ary Centenary distributed $500, 900 to the underpaid preachers of the Methodist Episcopal Church South. This was one of the practi- cal results of the Centenary cam paign inaugurated two years age.
 Another great movement has been launched by Southern Methodists and this time underpaid school teach CTS will reap some of the benefits in the way of increase salaries. It the Christian education movement succeeds in raising the S33 1000, ,000 it seeks for Christian education in the South it will not only mean the enlargement and improvement of the 91 educational plants maintain ed by the Southern Methodist Church but will raise the standard of these schools and colleges by insuring stronger and more permanent fac ulties. It will enable college pres idents to pay salaries that will at tract and hold the highest type of teachers.
 It is fact that the men and wo- men intrusted with the teaching of young people are poorly paid. When the cost of living had increased 82 per cent, the salary of the college professor had increased only 31 per cent while the wage increase in oth- CT industries was 95 per cent.
 Although there has been some decrease in the cost of living, teach ers are yet so poorly paid that it is almost impossible to fill the places of those who die or are forced into other employments. The very life of education, not only in the church but also in the state, both in the college and in the public school, depends largely upon substantial increase in the remuneration of the men and women who shape the des- tinies of the young.
 The Methodist church was born in college and churchmen claim that the highest type of leadership comes from the Christian college This movement in the interest of Christian education in the South is rapidly gaining headway through out Southern Methodist territory
