Georges Clcmcnceau, war premier, recently was subjected to seizure of q piece of furniture from his modest apart ment in Passy. He bought the fur niture back from the tax collectors emissaries, however, before il could be taken away.
 The story, as told by the weekly paper, Aux Ecoutes, is that the tiger" wasn't notified when his taxes fell due. When he finally got q summons he went to the collectors office. That official proved stubborn and Clemcnceau refused 10 pay. He also ignored subsequent summonses Then the agents appeared and seized the furniture.

FINAL CHAPTER IN
 PROHIBITION CASE
Today's Hearing Likely to Be
 Most Important Of All

Washington, April 24LP---The sem ate prohibition hearing was given more spacious theater today to pro- vide for what Senator Reed, demo- crat, Missouri. described as "a Roman holiday" 10 climax three weeks of verbal contest over tho merits and demerits of the Volstead act.
 Assessment of these qualities, however. will be left largely If not entirely to the audience. Tho for nal resolution of the plot--in the form of committee report-is likely to And the modification bills and the administrators measure to tighten up enforcement again in the spotlight.
 These proposals provided the basis for the dramatic spectacle. They have dropped out of sight fre- ouently as the story has been un- folded, but Chairman Harreld has held that the hearing is not an in- restlgation of conditions under pro- hibltion but an inquiry into the merits and demerits of certain bills.
 We will make report,' he said, "on whatever legislation is rec commended for enactment"
 An attempt to report on the effects of prohibition, he thought, would open up Pandora's box" and he doubted that "the drys themselves could agree on It's structure and wording"
 None of the liberalization meas. ures is expected to survive the hear.

Connecticut River Over :,
 Its Banks at Hartford

Hartford, Conn.,, April 2i (P'-- The Connecticut river overiowod its banks this morning and by noon had creeped up state street almost to Commerce street, more than loo feet from the waters edge. The lower dock of the Hartford and New York Transportation company was covered by more than one foot or water and the company abandoned this landing and confined its un- loading activities 10 the upper dock. Warning of flood was given ycs- terday by Harry F. Adams, meteor ologist of the United States weather bureau here, and his prediction that the annual spring inundation would make its appearance was fol- lowed by a riso of more than four feet in the past 24 hours MT. Adams predicts a still higher rise which will reach ominous propor- tions if rain falls within the next 36 hours.
