LIQUOR BARRED AMONG
FORD EMPLOYEES


Beginning last Monday the Ford
Motor Company waged an aggressive
war against the use Of all forms Of
intoxieants among its tens Of thous-
ands Of employees.
Information in the hands Of COM
pany officials show that federal and
state authorities have been only par
TALLY successful in enforcing prohi.
bition and the production Of intoxl-
cants in Highland Park and Spring
wells, two cities where the Ford
plants are located. Now so far as
the company's employees are con-
eerned the company will itself en-
force the eighteenth amendment to
the letter.
The method it will use is a simple,
but powerful one--the odor of int0x-
icants on a workman's breath, the
possession of any form of intoxicants
on his person, or in his home, will be
cause for summary discharge.
Henry Ford is much in earnest
about the matter. Of late there has
come to his attention several fragrant
cases Of stills in operation, sales Of
liquor and general laxity of prohibi-
ton enforcement on the part of the
county state and federal authorities,
In several cases liquor carried into
the shops has resulted in accidents.
One workman died after drinking a
connection bought near the Roughe
plant. Another, driving an automobile
under the influence Of liquor, caused
series Of traffic accidents. Men
working for Ford have found it pos
sible to purchase almost openly raw
liquor made from corn, raisins and
other mash within a stones throw of
the plants.
"This has got to stop" Mr.. Ford
said, "and we're going to end it in
short order. Starting Monday it will
cost a man his Job without any ex-
cuse or appeal if he is considered to
have the odor of beer, wine or liquor
on his breath or to have any of these
lntoxicants on his person, or in his
home.
"The eighteenth amendment to the
constitution is a part Of the funda-
mental law Of this country. 1t was
meant to be enforced. Politics has
interferred with enforcement of this
law. But so far as our organization
is concerned it is going to be enforced
to the letter.
Il have always been opposed to
all forms of intoxicants. Beer, wine
and liquor never did anybody any
good-and they have caused incalcul-
able suffering and misery in the
world.
$50 far as our plants are concerned
we're going to stamp out this bust
ness. If the government hasn't
enough men to do it, we have. And
this should be warning to those max
ing intoxicants and selling them to
our men-and to our men themselves
that we will not tolerate present
conditions any longer"

TAX COMMISSION COM
PLETES PRELIMINARY WORK

The Tennessee Tax Commission has
completed its preliminary work for the
three grand divisions of the state,
and on Monday met in Nashville to
give final hearings to all complaints
that may have been filed. The com
mission was in session over two
weeks in the eastern part of the
state, first sitting at Knoxville and
then visiting more than a dozen
counties in that section, including
Hamilton, Hamblen, Sullivan, Haw-
kins, Blount, Claiborne and others,
for the purpose of giving all copor-
atoms and other taxpayers opportun-
ity to be heard on any complaints
they might have to make. The com
mission then visited at Jackson and
Memphis, where conferences were
held with the tax assessors of many
of the larger west Tennessee counties
and taxpayers. The session of the
commission for Middle Tennessee was
held at Nashville prior to its sitting
Aat Knoxville. Less than a dozen
complaints have been filed with the
commission, and these by corpora
tons whose assessments were OBJ
iected TO on technical grounds. Most
of the big taxpayers of the three
grand divisions of the state expressed
themselves as being satisfied with
the commissions work and also that
of the local assessors.
As result of the commissions
session at Knoxville the tax rate Of
Knox county was reduced 16 cents,
due to placing on the books several
corporations that heretofore had es-
capped assessment altogether, or had
been greatly underassessed. Similar
results were obtained in number of
counties in the same way.

Baptist Memorial Hospital in Mem
phis Tuesday of last week at IL

JOHN M'CRAW
 IS PERPLEXED
Is Wondering Who He Will Use for His Lead-Of
 Man This Year.


 NEW YORK, Fob. 23.-John Me Graw, leader of tho World Champion Giants, has gathered a great squad for the 1922 campaign, but he is be- set with worry that never bothered him before he parted with George Burns.
 "Yes," said McGraw, before he left for Cuba several days ago, ives, tell mo who'll I use for a lead-off man. I've got plenty of hard hitters, in cluding Groh, F'risch and Young, but I want to use 'em in the cleanup spots. Groh has had lead-off expe- rience, but when he swings at ball he seldom misses. I need him at bat when men are on the bases"
 McGraw said he thought Frisch, a free hitter, was best suited for the third or fourth niche, and that Young was always good somewhere around the cleanup position. Leaving Ban croft as a possible lcad-off man, for Meusel and Kelly are not being con- sidered, and the Giant leader doesnt t want to take a chance on any of the new men. So it's toss-up between Groh and Bancroft.

MOVIE REFORMS BEING TAKEN UP
 BY AUSTRALIANS
Exhibition of Moving Pictures Be Regulated -Chil-
 dren Involved.

SYDNEY, N. $. W, Feb. 23.-Many reforms regarding the exhibition of motion pictures, with special regard to tho attendance of children at the performances, were recommended in an official report by the Victorian Council of Education. One of the recommendations proposed the pro hibjtion of any picture encouraging lisloyalty.
 The total attendance at the sos picture theaters in Australia for the year ending June 30, 1920, was 66,. 000,0 900, out of a total attendance of 94,000,0 900 at all amusements, the re- port stated. During the current year the record showed an average at tendance of 2,000,O00 weekly at film heaters. Australia has picture show for every 6,250 of population; the United States has one for every coco, and Great Britain has one for every $500, the report said.
 Examination of IA Melbourne schools showed that 45 per cent of the children attended film exhibitions more than once a week; Il per cent attended twice a week, and so per cent went once or oftener a week. Of these, 20 per cent reached home after the rest of the family had re- tired, 37 per cent attending at night, while 40 per cent attended in the aft
The Alaska daily empire., 1922-02-23

ernoon, with 23 per cent attending both day and night. The committee expressed the opinion that no child under 15 years of age should be al lowed to attend after 6:30 D. m. on any school day.
 Even moro drastic action has been proposed in New South Wales, where a district magistrate, dealing with a number of youthful defendants, was requested by the prosecutor a rep resentative of the school department and by the inspector of the State Children's Relief Department, to or der that the offenders should be pre- vented from attending picture shows for some time. The prosecutor con tended that attendance at picture thcaters undoubtedly had had a bad influence upon the children The court did not accede to the request pointing cut that he could not impose such a sentence legally.

ERNEST WICK
 PROVES FAST
 MAN ON FEET
Star Center of University of Michigan for All-Am-
 erican Honors.

ANN ARBOR, Mich, Feb. 23.-Al- though in action only about F hours Of the 1921 season, Ernest Wick of Toledo, star center of the University of Michigan eleven, won the coveted honor of being selected as All-Ameri- can center by Walter Camp. Coach Fielding II. Yost regards Vick's achievement as one of the most re- marlabe in the history of American football
 Wick is student in the medical school and did not complete his school work until about , o'clock in the afternoon. Coach YOst's automobile took him to Ferry Field every day as soon as he had completed his studies but he always arrived just as the remainder of the squad was leaving the field. With the excep- ton of five hours spent in practice on Saturdays, Wick was not in uni form at any time except during the seven games played by Michigan this year.
 Arriving at Ferry Field Wick would run several times around the cinder track and then submit to vigorous rjsb down This constituted his only exercise during the playing season except for that obtained in games.
 On a few evenings each week Wick met with Coach Yost and other mentors to receive skull practice New rlays were explained to him and he was kept up to date on the teams development.
 Wick always is in superb physi- cal condition at each season of the year and this accounts for his abil- fly to make the All-Amcrican with, ont practice" Coach Yost explained file had received three years of uni. versity football training previously bdirg benefited by the s. A. T. C.. rule, and he knew the game from start to finish"
 Wick played three position on de- fensive at various times during the last season, center, loose center and left tackle. In his four years of varsity play it is said that he failed to make a single bad pass. Another distinction he holds is that at no time during the four years was time taken out for him during game.

JOE DALEY HAS
 ANOTHER THINK:
 SIGNS CONTRACT
Attaches His Name to Slip Which Connects Him
 with Seattle Club.

SEATTLE, Feb 23.-Joo Daley the Slim Love of the Seattle Club has seen the error of his ways and signed his contract. Daley was a promising pitcher last spring, and he is still promising He did not have a very good year, and when he demanded an increase in salary he took the officials off thcir feet.
 But Daley secs his mistake, and realizes that the best way to get a boost is to deliver the merchandise. Joe is young, has a swell build for pitcher. and has as much stuff as any young man fin the league. He has filled out some this winter, and with McCredie to advise him, he should be a more valuable man this summer.
 Daley is smart enough to forget his difficulties with his former Port land boss McCredie discovered Daley several seasons ago, and slipped him the tinware. But Joe says he knows Mack can help him,
