One Grand Jag to Get Rid of the Stuff

THE plans for enforcing prohibition
j in the United States were pre-
sented to the house ways and means
committee the other day, two of them
by prohibition advocates and the 9TH
er by Representative Joseph R. Ford
ney of Michigan, committee chairman.
Wayne B. Wheeler, counsel for the
Anti-Saloon league, suggested a tax
of $500 a gallon on the whisky, the
medicating Of all stocks in bond to
render it unfit for beverage purposes,
and genuine enforcement of the law
by at least one federal district attor-
ney.,
Prohibition Commissioner John F.
Kramer recommended that all liquor
now in the government warehouses be
concentrated in three or four ware
houses in Kentucky, where heavy
guards can be placed and illegal with
drawals be prevented. He said that
100000 gallons have been with
drawn since January II, 1920, leaving
100000 gallons in storage.
Representative FOrdney said that

Bureau of Mines Tries an Innovation

take up with the industries peculiar
to its districts where the stations are
located the most pressing problems
that have baffled them, especially
those involving the treatment of low
grade ores, many of them heretofore
useless, and turn them into CONNER
cial processes of value TO the nation.
So successful have these methods of
solving commercial problems been, ac-
cording to the bureau of mines, that
at present the bureau has agreements
for experimental work with 10 indus
trial concerns, II different universi-
ties and with state agencies in IL
states.
These cooperative agreements with
the bureau embrace many different
activities For instance, there is an
experiment station at Bartlesville.
Okla, devoted entirely to the work of
the petroleum industry.
Seeking to find additional sources of
motor fuel for the rapidly increasing
nufrber of automobiles, the bureau has
entered into cooperative agreements
WITH thS> states of Utah and Colorado
to deveos the OIL shale industry,

for experimental and research work
and not less than S6,OO0,00O for new
machines and equipment.
The air service last year asked for
SS00OO,0O0 and will ask this session Of
congress for S6O,OOO,O0O. Senators on
the military affairs committee and
members of the house military COM
mittee said that nothing like this much
money could be allowed in view Of
fhe pressing need for cutting govern
mental expenses.
Aviation activities in the navy are
scattered through half a dozen bu-
reaus\ and efforts are being made to
obtain\ legislation establishing bu-
reau off naval aeronautics, headed by
rear admiral.
In the meantime experts declare
that the ma tion is tagging farther and
farther behind European countries.
The United Estates is so Ill equipped
as to be virtually defenseless and in
commercial navigation it has scarce
ly begun to start. =,
The army air force is inadequate
and most of theNplants are either OBJ
solete or obsoleseent.. The navy air
force is primitive compared with that
of the British and Wrench navies.

Commercial Assaults on National Parks

places involves constant vigilance. In
my view, their preservation is OF the
first Importance. 1t should be the set
tied policy of the country, regardless
Of any question of utility, that when
in the wisdom of the congress national
parks or monuments are definitely set
apart they must be preserved in their
integrity, forever free from any form
of commercialization. If this princ1-
pie is not recognized, and commercial
ization in any form is allowed to creep
in, it will be only a question OF time
when our wild West will be only
memory and the big game Of our coun-
try will be extinct, and these places
and objects, now so wonderful, will be
seriously and permanently injured.
Secretary. Payne then discusses
six-foot irrigation dam across the
mouth of Yellowstone lake in Yellow
stone National park, the project of an
association of Montana people. He
says that any material raising Of the
water would destroy timber. hot
