prohibition issue, 175 are avowedly
dry and only 81 wet. In Texas six
are wet and "a dry. Every candi-
date in Oklahoma's eight districts
is dry, while Kansas Minnesota,
Michigan, North Dakota and Ken
lucky ignore the question.
California and Massachusetts, also
will submit the wet and dry issue
to the people, although in forms
less direct than Illinois or Ohio. In
California it appears on the ballo
as referendum measure known
as the Wright Act, which would
adopt the Nolstead Act as state
law. In Massachusetts the people
will vote on measure to formulate
state prohibition enforcement reg
ulations in harmony with the Vol
stead law.
Prohibition is secondary issue
in several other states, including
New York and New Jersey, for the
democratic organizations in both
states have inserted wet planks in
their platforms. Governor Edwards
of New Jersey who has been an
uncompromising opponent of pro-
hibition since long before the Vol
stead Act became effective, is run
ming on a platform containing a
plank favoring the return of beer
and light wines. and condemning
the prohibition law as having en-.
couraged bootle gging. 1t is pointed
out, however, that the plank is not
so damp" as the one on which
Edwards was elected governor
three years ago. At that, time hS
was quoted as saying that he
would make New Jersey as wet as
the Atlantic ocean,"
For Law Enforcement
Senator Frelinghuysen, republic
can senatorial candidate to succeed
himself, has declared for law en-
forcement and the unfolding of the
Volstead Act. He stated in a recent
campaign speech that If the consti-
tuition prohibits the manufacture
and sale of Intoxicating beverages,
any modification that would permit
beer and wines is null and void and
unconstitutional, and that as long
as the 18th amendment remains
part of the constitution beer and
light wines cannot be brought back.

TRIALS Of POOR
ARE INCREASED
BY COLD WAVE
Demands Upon Bureau OF
Charities Increased: Many
Cases Handled and Trou-
bIes Adjusted by Guest.

With the coming Of cold weather
demands upon the bureau or char-
tiles are growing, the poor. as
usual, requiring greater assistance
than they do during the summer
months. Increase in requests Tor
assistance became noticeable more
than week ago and with eacn
day of cold weather the increase
has been greater. Yesterday, the
coolest since spring, brought more
persons seeking aid than any day
for the past eight months.
The average number OF cases
handled during recent months mas
been approximately 200 for each
ful month, During the past SIN
DAYS. however, there have been
sixty-eight cases disposed OF by
can't, Richard Guest. secretary for
the bureau of charities. Re estl-
mates that the bureau will be re-
ouired to handle 800 or more cases
this month.
The bureau of charities cares for
wide variety of cases. Captain
Guests office is the clearing house
for the afflicted OF Albuquerque.
His office cares for many needy
and he personally effects the
smoothing out of numerous family
troubles. Skipping lightly through
some of the thirty cases he han
died Yesterday afternoon throws
fair light on the achievements OF
his office.
BOY Parolcd to Guest.
Yesterday morning a young chap
was hailed before Justice OF the
Peace Montoya as an incorrigible,
Inez Padilla is the boys name. He
is 16 years old and his mother
made the charge against him be-
cause he refused to offer any con-
tribution toward her support The
bow was naroled to Captain Guest,
The charities secretary, who
knows his boyhood, advised the
boy from the manly standpoint and
the one of common sense. He
showed the youngster how living
nwav from home cost more than 1t
would at home and his mother lost
his assistance, while he lost the
better association Of home and
dropped into that which IS un-
healthy. The youngster saw the
liaht and returned to his home.
Now he wants to Join the navy. In
order to get away from associa-
tons which are i'll for him.
Another case was that Of girl

three weeks old. She had had

had three children after her first
marriage and one since the second,
She had eft her home in Los An
geles and gone to Omaha. Re
Gently she had, turned to go back
to her home and had paid her way
as far as Tucumcarl.
Funds Exhausted.
At Tucumcari her funds had
been exhausted and she had APP
piled for aid there. 1t is an I'M
written law amongst charity or
ganizations that they will not send
a person on to another city unless
the person has relatives or friends
who can care for them at the town
to which they are sent. .
Tucumcari sent the woman to
Albuquerque instead of to Los An
geles. Captain Guest refused to
help her out of town here, because,
he says, In these days there arc
many women travelling about the
country giving garbled accounts of
themselves and seeking charity
The woman refused to give any ac-
count of her relatives, so Captain
Guest offered to have her cared
for until employment could be
secured.
Another woman came into Albu-
Cuerque recently and was taken
sick shortly after her arrival, She
asked to be sent to Texas. Several
wires We're sent to relatives in that
state and no replies were received
The woman then asked to he sent
west. This turn caused an investi-
cation to be instituted and her re-
quest was denied, it being the opin-
ion she was unworthy of assist
ance.
Later boy OF IA came in with
his mother. The twD wanted to
thank the secretary for having ar
ranged to bring them together
again after a separation of six
months.
Roy Is Happy.
Six months ago the boy, Bonnie
Davis, went to California with
friends. He went to work on a
farm outside Los Angeles and later
became sick there. His mother,
learning of his Illness. asked the
bureau Of charities to assist IN
bringing him back. Arrangements
Were made through the Jewish Aid
society. at Los Angelo. and the
bov returned to Albuquerque yes
terdav. Tie was so nanpy in the
thought of reckoning his mother
that he rid himself OF most of his
illress on the return trip here.
Thus the wheels of the bureau
OF charities turn. Most of the
cases are merely families in want,
the usual tale Of sordid poverty,
due to misfortune. Yet many of
them hold interesting ramifica-
tions. And in nearly all cases
others than the applicants are af-
fected through the aid given. For
instance. OF the siyty-eight appli-
cations received durino the past
six DAYS there are. with families
included, IT'S persons affected.

Upswing in Progress. but
Some Obstacles Are in

Buying as Result of Rises

Even leaders in the textile trades
are wondering how far the price ad-
vances which began about a month ago
can 20. The woolen and worstea
goods market is definitely upon a
higher plane as n result Of higher
prices for raw wool. and one Of the
leading clothing manufacturers IN Chi

however. will not 90 into effect for
thirty days. Even with the advanced
pri cos on fall woolens. IL is reported
that some stock goods arc still avail
able at the old prices. In these two
eases there IS some appearance OF e.
forts 90 stir up buying now.
The advance IN cotton goods mas
been less marked than m woolcns. nnd
despite higher prices for raw cotton
finished cotton goods are still obtain
able IN many quarters ~ old prices. or
AZ only slight advances. MIL agents
Themselves are dubious regarding the
future outlook In cottons. While
higher prices appear unavoidable from
the mills and selling agents stand
point there is a disposition 20 proceed
cautiously in making price increases.
In silks the strong resistance Of
manufacturer 70 the advancing price
Of raw silk because Of their inability 20
fully reflect raw silk prices IN
finished goods has brought some soft
ening Of prices in the primary mar
ket. Raw silk prices. however. arc
still high in comparison with finished
goods. ard the tendency Of the latter
under normal conditions would be 20
appreciate In value.

Quality Merchandise Wanted

Good quality merchandise, and par
,ieularly that standardized and trade
marked. is moving into distributive
channels nj a more rapid pace than
lcw.end goods OF nondescript make.
The psychology Of this trend IS ex-
plained by the fact that wholesalers
and retailers are proceeding with ex-
trenc caution in merchandising activi-
ties and are not absolutely sure Of
future price values. In case Of price
decline merchandising history has
shown that standard goods suffer the
least, from consumer attitude and usn-
ally net a smaller loss 20 the distribu-
tive merchant than goods Of unknown
quality. whose sole appeal to the con
suncr is low price.
