Albany Mans Loan
To 'Down-and-Outer'
Is Restored Ten-Fold

ALBANY, Ca, Nov. 16.-Bread
cast upon the waters returned after
three years at the rate 800 per
cent, or 800 per cent a year. to j.
M. Bundrick, who three years ago
befriended an unfortunate down
and-outer'' at Columbus, Ga.
When the incident of three years
ago occurred, Mr.. Bundrick was a
solder at Camp Benning, near Co
lumbus. One day in that city he
met man named Overti, who told
him a story of misfortune. He said
he was out of money, out OF work
and far from his home, which was
in Tulsa, Okla.
Touched by the apparent sincerity
of the mans story, Mr.. Bundr1ck
gave him $50 with which to get
back home in decent shape. OF
course, the ma took Mr.. Bun
bricks name and home address, and
promised to send the money back
but Mr.. Bundrick says he really
considered it as a gift and soon dis
missed the matter from his mind.
Last Saturday morning the divi-
dends on Mr.. Bundrick's little Gin
vestme : in humanity" came back to
him. His original investment was
returned ten-fold, for he received a
letter from the man he had be-
friended, expressing gratitude for
the loan of $50, and inClosing a
check for $500.

AS for the vets they will not take
the short cut suggested by the Anti

to keep the issue alive and to make
it a vital factor in every election so
that wet members of congress from

demonstration Of strength so far as
to swing the doubtful ones into line.
The end of the fight is far off. 1t

paign of 1924 will be on with both
parties wondering how to handle the

MAN HAS SPENT 7
YEARS TRYING To
LEARN HIS NAME
BY CONDO

BIRMINGHAM, Ala, Nov. ia
strange story of lost identity was
related by a young man Of twenty
six years Of age in the office of
local newspaper here.
ct am trying to find out who I
am" he said. For the past seven
years I have been trying to learn
whether I am Hubert Dechenault,
Charles T. Johnson or H. K. Schnall
and today I am as much in the dark
as L was the day I commenced the
investigation"
Hhe story as related by the young
man sounds more like page from
a work of fiction than a true story
of lost identity. According to his
story he was placed in a Catholic
orphanage at Nazareth, N. c., when
but three years of age. He said he
was at that time given the name
Charles Johnson. Officials of the
orphanage refused to tell him any
thing concerning his parentage, and
warned him against trying to learn
anything about them, he said.
He was turned out of the orphan
age in 1915, at the age of nineteen
years, he told newspaper men. Ac
ccrdiEg to the young mans story
before he left the orphanage a
mound was thrown up in The ceme-
terry at the orphanage with a cross
placed at the head and with the
name Charles T. Johnson" inscribed
upon the cross. He said the priest
in charge told him that his name
henceforth would be Hubert Deche-
nault. He was then placed On a train
and given transportation to- Norfolk.
In Norfolk he secured employment
and commenced an investigation to
try 10 establish his identity.
During the years which followed
he said he tried to locate his parents.
From information received from a
number If sources he came to the
conclusion that his parents were
Roger and Louisa johnson. and his
place of birth Atlanta, but he had
not been able to establish this fact.
He stated that a. number of times
he had advertised in the newspapers
in an effort to locate his parents.
Each time he advertised he re-
ceiVed a letter from the Orphana8e
warning him to cease his efforts
along this line, he said. Some OF
these letters from the orphanage
stated that his name had been
changed from Dechenault to Schnall.
For several days the young man
was employed in Birmingham by a
construction company, which com,
pany is erecting a city market house
here. At present he is employed az
the Kicker market, Gadsden, Ala. He
is very anxious to clear up the mys-
terry of identity and to learn what
his truo name is

after March 4, 1923. Meanwhile the
fight will be carried to states and
congressional districts from coast
to coast.
Now, when all is said and done,
and a majority of both houses Of
congress are ready to modify the
Volstead law, what practical effect
will their action have? Surprising
congress decides to permit the man
ufacture of 2.75 beer and light wines.
The Anti-Saloon league argues that
such a modification would be futile,
as forty-three of the forty-eight
states of the union have their own
laws making one-half Of 1 per cent
the legal alcoholic content for bev-
erages of all kinds. California has
just adopted by referendum this
one-half of per cent standard. The
law of congress permitting a greater
degree of alcohol would not be eff
fective in any states which had
laws Of their own at one-half OF l
per cent. Two states have the l per
cent standard and two states-Mary-
land and Massachusetts - haven't
any limits but aregoverned by fed
eral statute.
The National Association opposed
to prohibition admits there is no
such thing as light wine" and
that unless wines are fortified with
sufficient alcohol, they turn into
vinegar. Most beverages known as
light wines contain at least fourteen
per cent alcohol.
Congress Has Right
Congress has the right to say
whether beer of 2.75 per cent or wine
of IA per cent is intoxicating and
therefore whether a law permitting
the same would be in conflict with
| the eighteenth amendment of the
| constitution. The drys are confident
that the supreme court would up
| hold their contention that q 2.75 beer
or a wine with IA per cent content
| of alcohol would be construed as in:
| toxicating and the modification OF
| the Volstead act along those lines
| declared in conflict with the eigh
| teenth amendment.
This isn't going to prevent the
vets however, from carrying their
fight along and throwing it into the
courts for they figure that the more
controversy is stirred up the weaker
will the dry cause become. Similarly
the dry argue that the only legiti
mate way to get the beer and light
wines issue before the people is fol
congress, by two-thirds vote to sub
nit to the several states of the
union a proposal to modify the eigh
| teenth amendment so that the manu-
facture of 2.75 beer or wine of def
mite alcoholic content may be legal
The drys do not say they will Co
operate to secure such a submission
They will fight it tooth and nail and
if it passes congress they will wage
incessant warfare against the pro

DETENT|ONO Of GIRL
IN INSANE ASYLUM
DECLARED PROPER

BOSTON, Nov. 16.-After fore
noon of inspection at the Mclean
Hospital for the Insane at Waiver
lev. Acting Governor Alvan T.
Fuller said today that he was con
WINGED that the committal to the
institution of Dorothy Gordon. heir
ess to a 100000 estate and her
treatment there, were proper in eV-
cry way.
Mr.. Fuller's visit was for the prr-
pose of investigating reports of If
Irregularities concerning Miss Cor
cons commitment and treatment
that have grown out Of the hearing
before master Of controversy over
her guardianship.
Hearing of the petition of Miss
Gordon's uncle, John Gardiner. of
Baldwin, N. Y, for the removal OF
William F. Jardine, of Winchester,
as guardian of the girl, has been
suspended for ten days.
Acting Governor Fuller gave out
the following statement:
IT talked with Miss Gordon. She
is entirely satisfied with her treat
ment in the hospital, indicated to
me that she knew her rights fully
and stated to me that she desired to
remain there and would prefer to
be left alone by those on the outside
She denied specifically the allega-
tions that have been made to the eff
feet that she has been abused"
In addition to the inquiry made
by Mr.. Fuller the state COM
mission of mental diseases has be-
gun an investigation at the request
of Gardner.
Rumors that an attempt was to
be made to kidnap Miss Gordon led
to the placing of armed guards at

No UNEMPL OYMENT
PROBLEM IS SEEN
IN j. 6. THIS YEAR

WASHINGTON, Nov. 16.-Unem-
ployment this winter will be at its
lowest ebb since the war days, ex
perts at the department of commerce
and the labor department stated to-
day on the basis of a national sur
vey.
Few people who want work need
go without job, they stated. They
foresee an acute labor shortage, par
ticularly in the unskilled labor indus
tries, early IN the spring.
This probable labor shortage and
the lack of railroad equipment may
put a brake on the expected bust
ness boom, it was held.
Little unemployment exists today
the departments claim. Last year
at this time, when the acute situa-
ton caused President Harding to
convene his famous unemployment
conference, more than 100000
workers Were jobless.
The tremendous building program
of the past year, particularly dur
ing the spring and summer months,
provided places for hundreds of
thousands Of skilled and common
1aborers. The hundreds of millions
o: dollars worth of new equipment
ordered by the railroads was anoth-
err factor in the situation. Labor
activity has been increasing in con-
stantly widening ripples until now
many cities. mainly Pittsburg and
Philadelphia are suffering for lack
OF workers in the paste industries.
Clerical workers alone report a
dearth of jobs. These men and WON.
en- could find places in industry IT
they were willing to accept inferior
jobs, the commerce department
stated.
Fear of a labor shortage, with its
consequent reaction on prosperity,
has resulted in a demand for lifting
Of the immigration restrictions. Ain
effort may be made at this session
OF congress to amend or throw out
entirely the 8 per cent immigration
law which restricts the entrance OF
foreigners to per cent of the ma
tlonals already in the country.

HEARING Of SUIT
IN CHICAGO GRAIN
CASE IS To Be SET

CHICAGO, Nov. 16.-Indication of
whether further hearing of the Chi
cago Board of Trade suit to test the
constitutionality of the new federal
grain futures trading act will be
held in district court here, or in the
United States supreme court, was ex-
pected to be given Monday. The case
ultimately will go to, the highest
court.
The board in it's suit, which seeks
an injunction restraining enforce
ment Of the act, temporary stay
order having been issued, alleges
that the act invades state rights
over state commerce and seeks to
regulate such commerce as inter
state commerce.
It is alleged by grain traders here
that the new law contains all Of the
Objectionable features of the Capper-
Tincher act which was held uncon-
stitutional on May Is. last.
Similar suits started simultaneous
ly in Memphis, Kansas City and st.
Louis on October 80, when the Chi
cago board filed it's complaint, by
decision of the department of justice,
have been held in allegiance pending
i The Capper-Tincner act followed
the suspension of future trading dur
ing the war and a long campaign of
certain elements in congress and out
side, including some farm organiZa-
tions, to admit cooperative organi-
cations to membership in the board
Of trade nd to permit them to re-
bate to their members the cost OF
ice m
Board members contended that
while they had no objection to adj
hitting cooperative farm bodies to
membership, such memberships
should be governed by the same
rules as other members and to al
low rebating of commissions would
violate the rules and would discrim-
mate against the other members.
So sweeping was the Capper-
Tincher bill originally drawn, fol-
lowing consideration Of several mar
keting proposals. by congress in jan
uary, 1921, that certain leaders in
the grain trade declared it would re-
suit in closing of grain exchanges.
After committee hearings the bill
wa amended to permit operation of
futures markets and finally was
passed in August, 1921.
Before the law went into effect,
individual members of the board OBJ
tanned an injunction to prevent Off
CHS Of the board from putting into
effect the provisions of the law and
restraining the secretary of agricul-
tut from carrying out the act, and
las. May the supreme court held
unconstitutional various sections of
the law. Chief Justice Taft held that
the suit should have been brought
by the board itself.
The new law regulating grain fu-
lures trading permit ing cooperative
bodies membership with rebating of
commissions, granting the secretary
Of agriculture wide powers, includ-
ing the right to designate what mar
kets shall be contract markets and
what shall not. and setting up a
commission composed of the secre-
tary of agriculture and secretary of
commerce and the attorney general,
then was passed. This act, the
boards suit alleges, makes violat on
of the act crime and gives the COM
mission the power to deprive mem
| bers of the right to pursue a lawful
avocation, whereas criminal laws are
enforceable only in courts and with
| iurY rights.
