HAYNES GETS plea
| TO FAVOR U. S. WINE
California Growers Deny I'M
ported Brands Are Better
AS Medicine.

&
An America first" policy in pro-
hibition enforcement was urged
upon Commissioner Haynes by
Senator Samuel NJ. Shortridge yes
terday.
Booze is BOOZE the Senator
holds, and in making executions to
the Volstead law for medicinal
purposes, preference should be
given to the home product.
California wineries recently have
complained that they have millions
Of gallons, made before prohibition
became effective, and are finding
a very slow medicinal market for
IT. while officials customs reports
show that French and other foreign
wines are pouring into the United
States in even larger quantities, IN
some instances, than before the
Volstead act was passed.
Under the present system permits
are granted for importations OF
wine for medical purposes when II
Is shown that none Of the desired
kind Is in the country. Under this
the information given Senator
1870 ~ AsAGSp 6OS0 AAO1AAN ~ eAASS4s RANE
hibition bureau and says there Is
no Pol Roget, Of the vintage fof
1876, Mumm's Extra Dry Of 1900
or PEPPER Hefdsick," for example,
available. He makes an affidavit
to this effect and gets d permit to
bring in some Of that particular
brand.
Now Senator Shortridge, who as
serts the California variety Of cham
payne not only is cheaper but is
better than its French competitor
for medicinal or any other purpose,
wants the prohibition authorities to
put their foot down on the demand
for particular brands. California and
ober wine-malking States before the
Volstead era began. he is conf
dent, can supply all the kinds re-
quired.
The Senator had conferences with
the prohibition officials and is hav-
ing prepared figures to show the
enormous imports Of wines and why
permits were issued In each case.
The Anti-Saloon League has joined
in the fight to shut. the door to
French and other foreign wines.

REDUCE QUORUM.

Under the Constitution, Congress
is supposed to be legislative body,
but at least half of the time and
energy of the average member is
expended in the discharge of de-
partmental work-something that
was not contemplated when the
Constitution was formulated and the
Government established.
The business of the Government
has grown to such proportions that
the time is not far distant when
members of Congress will be re-
quired to devote their entire time
to legislation, leaving departmental
activities to some other agency.
There is real need for reform
in some of the rules of the House,
particularly in abolishing the vi
cious system of considering bills
under unanimous consent. The
present system permits one man to
defeat meritorious legislation and
to thWart the wishes of the ma.
jority. I also believe that the
quorum requirements in the House
should be reduced to 100 members
and in the committee of the whole
House to fifty members.

The membership Of the House is
too large to permit that body to
engage in real elaboration on legis-
latiOn.
The noise and confusion of such
a large gathering of members is
sometimes so great that neither
the Speaker nor the reading clerks
can be heard. Better legislative
results would follow II the mem
bership were reduced to ESQ and
each Congressman provided with an
individual desk on the floor.
In the old days. before the re.
movaI of the desks, the average at
tendance was much better than 1t
ii today. Under the present ar
rangement members are prone to
leave the floor and work in their
offices, returning only for a roll
call vote. Under such a system
the individual member Is not fully
informed on questions before the
House, but relies on the reports of
committees in charge OF the bill
under consideration. A smaller
Congress would be much more eff.
cient.

DON'T BLAME THE TEACHERS

Don't blame the teacher for your
child's stupidity. The teacher can
not instill brains where there are
no brains The teacher can only
develop what brains the child has
when the child is willing.
A number of high school gradu-
ates from all over New Jersey fail
ed this summer to pass the exami-
nations for entrance requirement at
the State Normal School. 1t was
admitted that the examinations
were severe, so second chance
was given to those who failed.
At the second trial few passed.
The majority Of them failed again.
1t is easy to conjecture that those
few had been at work brushing up
their knowledge of the subjects
they had failed on before. The ma
jority who failed the second time
owe their failure to the same thing
that caused their first failure-IG-
NORANCE!
If they study only enough in
class to get by" then the teacher
cannot be blamed for their negli-
gence. If they were dumb in the
first place, then certainly the teach
er could not help it.
Be sensible! Every time you
squeal like stuck pig in blaming
the teacher, you are only encour-
aging your children to increase
their slovenly methods of study.

BETS TO SEE BOXING BOUTS
AT CONVENTION
"VETERANS COLUMN"


When members of the American
Legion gather in San Francisco for
their annual convention, October 10
10, they will see number of for
mer ring champions in action,
whose patriotism cannot be ques-
toned.
Willie Ritchie, former worlds
champion lightweight boxer, has
consented to appear in an exhibit
ton boxing match at a high jinks'
entertainment that is to be an inn
portant event of the program.
Ritchie contemplates re-entering the
boxing ring in the near future and
hopes to obtain match with Ben
ME Leonard, the present champion.
Ritehie was friend to thousands
of men who received their wartime
training at Camp Lewis, Washing
ton, and is still in correspondence
with many of them.
Another former champion who
has offered his services to the con-
vention committee is Jimmie Britt,
who was defeated many years ago
by Battling Nelson. Britt is now
o prosperous business man in San
Francisco, and has identified him
self with all activitie and enter
tainment programs for disabled and
wounded veterans.
The "high jinks" show will be
held in the large civic auditorium
and will consist of twenty high
class acts. Those in charge ex-
pect to entertain crowd of from
10000 OF 25,000 legion members.
