HELD ON LIQUOR CHARGE
New Ruling of Supreme Court Invoked
 ill a Local Case.

Little Rock, Dec. CD. B. Wyatt, prescription clerk in a local drug store, yesterday was held to the Grand Jury under $1,OO0 bond in Municipal l,Court on a charge of selling A. Kron- Ter bottle of Tichenor's Antiseptic. which contains a very high percentage of alcohol.
 So far as is known, this is the first court action taken under a ruling of the Arkansas Supreme Court about three weeks ago to the effect that the sale of any medicinal preparation con- taining more than one-half of one per cent of alcohol is illegal. The ruling was made on the appeal of White county druggist, who had been found guilty of violating the liquor laws by selling a patent medicine of high al- coholic content. The court held that it was not necessary for the seller to know whether the medicine was to be used incidentally or as tonic. The case was taken under review a short time after the ruling was made, and now is pending in the Supreme Court.
 Wyatt's arrest followed the arrest of Kronen who was held On a charge of drunkenness. Kronen denied drink ing whiskey, but admitted that he had consumed a quantity of the antiseptic purchased from Wyatt. Kronen was fined $10.

HARDING TELLS HOUSE
TO PASS NEEDED LAWS

dice against bestowal of any form OF
subsidy. while latent for many years.
has not subsidized by any means, de-
spite the fact that the passage of the
bill proposed by Mr.. Harding unques-
tionably would result in tremendous
benefits to the country generally and
the farmers particularly.
To his Congressional callers to-day
the President pointed out conditions
that make the subsidy bill of para
mount Importance IL American skip
ping is not to be tied up at home while
the merchant fleets of other countries
seize the great part Of foreign trade.
The President urged Speaker Gill
lett and his associates to take the bill
out of committee. They promised to
do tie best they could, although the
impression prevails at the Capitol that
Leader Mondeil who comes from Wyo-
ming and Is a candidate for the Sem
ate, is opposed 10 it. The pressure
applied by the President will in any
event help the situation If anything
can.
Chairman Greene OF TIE committee
Wnlcn mas IL under cOnSlueratlOli
promised the President bill en-
bodying the suggestions made by the
Executive would be prepared and re-
ported in ten days If Messrs. MondeIl
and Fordney make an earnest effort
TO recruit votes to the support of
measure it can be put through.
The Senate end of the problem Is
entirely another thing There un-
questionably will be vigorous opposi-
ton to the subsidy plan for reasons
generally archaic and parochial.
Whether Mr.. Lodge. who is an advo-
cate of the subsidy can hold his party
associates in line remains to be seen.
Middle Western Senators embraced
in the agricultural bloc will be difficult
to handle and deliver. The Democrats
in both houses will naturally vote
against any ship subsidy bill.
