WILL WAR ON
FLOATING BARS
Plan to Establish Recreation
Vessels" Outside Three-Mile
Limit Is Fought.
WOULD ASK FOR new LAWS
Prohibition Commissioner Haynes Re-
lilies 20 Letter From Argent of
Company Planning to Establish
Vessel Outside New York.


Washington, March 13.-War on all
floating bars, even when off the
three-mIe limit, was declared by Pro-
hibition Commissioner Haynes.
A plan to establish a recreation
vessel" on which alcoholic beverages
would be sold beyond the three-mile
limit in the vicinity of New York city
called forth the commissioners dec
laration of hostilities.
Replying to a letter sent him by
James v. Martin of the Recreation
Ticket company of New York, who
plans to establish such vessel, Com
missioner Haynes expressed the con-
victiOn that ample legal authority
would be found to prevent the opera
tion of the recreation vessel" even
when outside the territorial waters OF
the United States.
If present laws are not sufficient ne
will appeal to congress for additional
legislation, Commissioner Haynes de-
elared
Commissioner Haynes letter to Mr..
Martin follows:
Receipt is acknowledged of your
letter of March {, 1922, relative to the
project for the establishment Of
recreation vessel beyond the three
mile limit in the vicinity of New York
city. Four statement that the vessel
is not to be primarily booze ship
has been noted.
However,, this Office feels that 1t
cannot do otherwise than oppose by
all lawful means tue operation in such
a manner of a vessel on which intoxi-
eating liquors are served at all. II
such evasion Of the law is successful
it must ultimately lead to the grossest
abuses.
IF the present statutory authority
of this Office is insufficient to prevent
the successful contamination of your
plans congress will be requested to
enact additional legislation prohibit
ing, in every manner possible under
the Eighteenth amendment, participa-
ton in such enterprises as you con-
template. 1t appears clear to this of
fee that the Constitution would per-
NIT enactment of legislation prohibit
ing in this country the promotion and
financing of such a project and possi-
bly, the operation of vessels for the
purpose of conveying persons to and
from recreation ships sucn a. you
have in mind.
''This Office vigorously protests
against any such mercenary attempts
to evade and violate the spirit of the
Law in this country and takes this oc-
casion to go on record as intending to
do everything which it lawfully can to
Illustrate such efforts"

Use for GYroscope.

Very successful, it appears, have
been the experiments which for some
years have been made with form
of the gyroscope which is intended
to correct errors of the mariners

for instance, in submarine boats, to
replace the compass. The apparatus
In one case is based upon the ten

axis of rotation in a fixed position. If
the axis is set to correspond with the

interests that no one can say he is
trying to put over something for the
cattle business alone. Mn. Hyer has
the same idea that the editor of The
Herald has in regard to a cold stor-
age plant and meat packing plant
somewhere in this part Of the state
that will take care of all the fresh
and smoked meats and vegetables,
cts. One that will give the people
the benefits of cold storage, that will
take our Florida beef and by cold
storage turn it into tender beef, and
one that will give the farmer, the
fruit grower and the stockman a
ichance to make some money instead
of giving his stuff to the other fell
low to do that which the local man
should do-cold storage. That is
really the secret of our success in
this part of Florida. 1t is the secret
of success of the cattleman and hog
man of the future. Bob Hyer can
see it because he sees things from
many angles and he has been seeing
