ALLOW CHURCHES WINE
Clergymen May Supervise Its Use In-
 der New Regulations.

Washington, July 16-Rabbis, min- isters and priests, duly appointed by the heads of the ecclesiastical jurisdic- tions of their churches may supervise the manufacture and distribution of altar wines in their specified territor- ies, under new regulations being con- sidered tonight by Revenue Commits sioner Blair, in accordance with an opinion by Attorney General Daugh- erty.
 The national prohibition act, Mr. Daugherty held, indicated an inten- tion on the part of Congress to place in the hands of the church itself a power whereby it never will be fore ed to use inferior products for sacra- mems, nor ever be left without means of supplying it's needs for sacramental wines.
 "The intent of Congress is clear" the attorney general said, ito abolish the business of middlemen or retail distributor in sacramental wines, but the intent is equally apparent to per init the church, if it agrees to assume responsibility through it's duly auth orized rabbi, minister or priest, full power to supervise the manufacture of altar wines, and it is my opinion that it specifically grants the greater privilege of supervision of distribu- tion."
 The attorney generals opinion puts an end to a long-drawn-out fight by various religious bodies, which claim ed that the elimination of the sacra- mental wine dealers from business through the denial of Treasury per mits shut off all legitimate channels for obtaining proper wines for sacra- mental purposes, and forced the churches to use spirits of uncertain standard

ATTEMPT TO BURN
CENTRAL SCHOOL

Considerable excitement prevail
when rumors were current that a
murder or some other sort of deep
dyed villiany had been performed
at the Central School building and
the School Board and Teachers were
all keeping it quiet, but Tuesday
ment came to light when it was an
nounced that fires had been started
in two rooms Of the Central School
and from all appearances it was the
intention Of the culprits to burn the
building down. In one room teach
ers desk was entirely destroyed and
in another the fire was started in
desk and with the ink bottle hole
for flue burned hole in the top
of the desk, other small fires We're
started around the rooms with tab
lets and rulers taken from the desks
but none of the fires started made
any headway and died out. So far
the perpetrators of the crime have
not been located and it is unknown
whether it was the work Of FIRE
bug or the work of small boys. The
damage actually done will not ex-
ceed SO or $15. A detective from
the Revelare Agency at Pocatello
spent two days in Blackfoot on the
case, but failed to find clue to the
identity of the fire bugs. The rooms
in which the fires were started were
h. .o1, n
Vaughn and Mrs Percy Jones were
the teachers. The school board are
working diligently on the matter
and it is hoped a solution to the pro-
blem will soon be found.

UTAH-|DAHO SUGAR COMPANY
ANNOUNCE PRICE SUGAR BEETS

The following letter is being
mailed to the beet raisers Of this
section of Idaho, and gives the price
of beets for the coming year
Gentlement
Please. find enclosed the Idaho
Sugar Beet Contract as finally
agreed upon by the Idaho State SUI
gar Beet Committee and the Utah
Idaho Sugar Co.
This contract is based on divis-
ion of the sugar extracted from the
beets on the basis of 53.5 per cent
to the Sugar Cos. and 46.5 per cent
to the grower. With a guaranteed
minimum of $3.50.
Last year the contract was not
based on true scale as in the lower
prices for sugar the Company took
the advantage in the division and
gave us a slight advantage in the
higher prices, and that was the
thing we objected to.
!. The aim of the State Beet Com
mittec is to work for a $3.50 divis-
ion of the profits of the industry,
and we feel that substantial head
way Is being made, but these depres-
sing times has hindered the work
materially.
In view of the fact that the Utah
