BREWERY UNDER SEIZURE
CONTINUES TO OPERATE
AS Result Three Dry Agents Are
Dismissed From Service

Two trucks loaded with beer were
seized by Pittsburgh Prohibition
agents last week on the property OF
the Star Brewery Company in Green's
burg, Pa. This brewery was closed
six weeks ago by the Prohibition au-
thorities for alleged violation of the
National Prohibition law.
Three government guards stationed
at the plant to prevent the manufac-
ture or removal of beer pending court
action on the seizure were notified OF
their dismissal by General Prohibition
Agent Exnicios after he received the
reports of the seizure of the trucks
and beer.
Exnicios said he was advised that
beer was being manufactured at the
seized plant and accordingly assigned
three general Prohibition agents to
conduct an investigation. When these
agents arrived at the plant they found
two trucks loaded with beer. The old
guards worked turns OF elRnl hours
each day The guard on duty when
the seizure was made got into tele-
phone communication with Prohfbi-
ton headquarters after the two trucks
OF beer were conhscated, and explained
to Chief Exnicious that he was away
from the plant at the time to get his
lunch and that he had no knowledge
of any beer being brcwed there.
This incident shows that Prohibi-
ton enforcement chiefs are on the
Job and that the agent who is derelct
or inefficient has little chance of re-
tanning his position under the present
organization.

SCOTS WARY OF LIQUOR
TRADE BEARING GIFTS
Bill to Reform" Saloons Intro
duced in Effort to Get Rid
of Veto Act
TRADE FEARS PEOPLE
Publicans Seek Liberty to Supply
Liquors in Local Veto
Territory

Under the guse of scheme for a
reformed public house the liquor deal
crs OF Scotland have introduced a bill
into the British Parliament which
boldly proposes to repeal the veto pro-
visions of the Temperance (Scotland)
Act 1913.
Copies of this bill were sent to tho
Scottish press early this week by the
secretary of the Anti-Prohibition
Council with request for news no.
tice. Two other things are proposed
which show that liquordom hates pop
ular control. AT present licenses in
Scotland are granted for one year and
no longer and the licensing authori-
ties have the discretion of refusing re-
newal at the end of any yearly term.
The liquor bill proposes that the re-
formed drink shop is to have tenure
of ten years duration. Then the Ii
censing authorities in the matter of
appeal from the court of first instance,
is at present composed of one-half
drawn from an elective body and one
half from a nominated body. The
liquor bill seeks to destroy the elective
element, and make it small body
chosen from the nominative element
and to be presided over in each by the
sheriff of the district.
What this means may best be in
ferred by stating that since the Veto
vote of 1920, permission has been
granted by several of these sheriffs TO
clubs to supply liquor in no-license
areas.
Under the 1918 act local government
electors, male and femele, have power
by direct vote to suppress licenses for
the retail sale of liquor in their respec-
tive voting areas. The power has
only been once exercised, that was in
1920, and though the drink sellers
claimed that they scored a great VIC
tory at the time, they are not prepared
to trust their own customers to decide
the matter again if they can avoid it.

DETROIT. October 13.-The two
most encouraging signs in the Detroit
business situation this week were the
expansion of building construction,
which had suffered slight check. and
increased activity at the Ford fac
tories. New employees are being taken
on regularly. and 1t is predicted that
production this month will run above
100000 cars.
A further increase in employment
of $500 men. this week brought the
total number at work in the indus
trial plants here to within 10000 of
the high record attained in August.
Car shortage still is hanging over
the situation like a cloud, but local

BROAD SILK PRICES UP.

The recent sharp advances in raw
silk quotations have started a gen
eral upward movement in broad silk
prices. Contrary to expectations the
higher prices have acted as stimu-
liant to buying. Retailers as a rule
are no longer complaining against
the advances, but are more inclined
to pay them. and in many instances
have begun to place orders far into
the future in anticipate ton Of further
advances. Manufacturers, however
are not disposed to accept orders call
ing for delivery early next year, and
feel that to figure such orders at
prevailing quotations would invite
probable losses.
