STATE LAWS COME HIGH NOW

Marriage License
ERNEST johnson, Harrington, ~
GLADYS Evelyn Burdette, III.

The 1921 market quotation for
laws in Kansas stands at $3S3.1o]
each. That is the average cost OF the
3O5 statutes enacted by the recent
session of the legislature. the total
cost OF the session being $117,O29. In
both the total and the average cost
per statute, a record in the history OF
kansas legislatures was estabished'
according to official reports
High cost per law was due not only
"a the fact that the number OF laws
enaeted was the smallest in the last
twelve years. This record, OF course,
does net take into account the 1,ooo
odd bilis introduced which failed TO
reach the statute books. The total
cost of $4,000 was $1s.579 above
the previous record set by the 1919
session. The custom to pay the legis-
lators, in addition to their wage OF 20
day, an additional So per day TOT
hostage, telephone and telegraph"
was voted, each member receiv-
ing $500 for the maximum OF hfty
days. As the session-the actual
working time--was two weeks more
than the allotted fifty days, the law
makers received no compensation FOL
the last two weeks Of their stay IL
Topeka.

"LIQU0R" MADE IN HOME
MUST BE WITHOUT KICK
Prohibition Commissioner Haynes
Warns That Private Manufacture
Of 1ntoxicants Is Illegal

Manufacture Of intoxicating liquor
in the home is illegal, according to
Prohibition Commissioner Haynes,
who has made known the govern
ment's stand on the question.
Numerous inquiries have been re-
cefved recently, he said, concerning
the home manufacture Of fruit juices
growing out of reports that a head
of household was entitled to make
200 gallons of wine year under
permit.
The prohibition units attitude on
the home-brew question was defined
by Mr.. Haynes as follows:
Notwithstanding fruit juice can
be made in the home. Intoxicating
wine. home brew and distilled spirits
may not be made. Two hundred gal
Ions of Notwithstanding fruit Juice
may be manufactured tax free by the
head Of family registering with a
collector of internal revenue.
This tax-exemption provision has
been the source of confusion. The
effect of this is not to allow the
manufacture of 200 gallons of in
toxicating wine free from registra-
tions of the national prohibition act,
but merely to allow the manufacture
of 200 gallons Of Notwithstanding
fruit juices free of tax"
