PROHIBITION IS COSTLY PROJECT
Gen, Andrews Reports Expenses
 Now as S28,5OO,OOO

Washington. June A LP(--An inti- mate picture Of the costs, hopes and difficulties of the federal prohibition agencies was placed before the house today in q report containing testi- mony given recently by Assistant Secretary Andrews before the house appropriations committee. He appeared 10 urge additional funds for enforcement, which are provided in the second deficiency ap- lpropriaton bil. reported today by lthe committee.
 Total Cost S2S.5OOO0O
 General Andrews placed the total cost of prohibition now at $2S.50o.- 900, said one Of his chief difficulties lin enforcement was handling dry iagents who accept sl,000 a month "to look the other way" and con- iccdcd under questioning by Chair man Madden, that he was an "opti- mist"
 He told Mir. Madden. however that, although he might be "ridc- ulous optimist," he expected to sec real beer off the market by Christ { mas" and when the chairman asked If il would be just for the winter months" he replied;
 NO: I mean off the market" 1 This came after the prohibition chief had estimated that 15,000.oQ0 gallons of industrial alcohol were diverted to bootleg whiskey last 1 year and that. when cut" this represented at least 9o,0QO,000 gal Ions of liquor.
 Industrial alcohol diversions were confirmed largely in the "big manu- featuring sections east of the Mis- sissippi and north of the Potomac. " he said. and outlined a plan for in- creasing the size of the enforcement unit 10 cope with this division.
 Will Eliminate Source, 1 What do you think will be the effect? Madden asked, Tt will eliminate, first. the source of supply for the illegitimate traffic in liquor and probably turn the boot | logging industry to illegitimate dis tillation," he replied. "Thcn what will happen?" "Then l am asking for the right to get search warrants on the basis that we have evidence that a private 1 dwelling is being used as a conner cial distillery if We get that law, We l will make 1t pretty hard for them to distill their source of supply. If We succeed in turning the industry away from that source of supply, then, ul. timately, we will get it back on the basis where every man will make his own whislley in his own home for his own consumption"
 Then what?" continued Madden.
 "Then l will have more than done my work"
 You you think that will be the end Of It? Will there be no inter ference with the right to make their own whiskey?"
 Not by the federal government I hope"
 Case For Local Police
 You do not mean to say that those who manufacture it at home lin violation of the law, will have Iany immunity" interposed Repre- sentative Buchanan, democrat, of Texas.
 T did not mean that" replied An .drews, 'I mean that the local com 'munities ought to take action in those cases; not the federal govern 'ment"

Colored Fun Used
as Coat Trimming
Paris Designers Offer Mode
Ensemble Also Given
Consideration.

favorite method Of trimming coats
and one which has been adopted by
leading Paris couturiers, observes
Paris fashion correspondent in the New
York Herald-Tribune, is to have band
of fiat fur down one side of the front
which wraps over. This band starts
from the collar and is often cut in one
with it. 1t widens gradually until 1t
reaches the hem, often acquiring the
impor Cnce Of an apron.
The e Is also the geometrically
worked applique in diamonds, tri-
angles or ovals that adorns the shaped
hem of a godet coat. This may be in
fur that Is worked concentrically In
the same color, but 1t is often shades.
So far this Is the only example Of the
patterned furs that were seen at the
Paris Exposition de Arts Decoratifs.
Most furriers and dressmakers prefer
to use such expensive trimmings on
the conservative lines to which they
have been accustomed for years past,
for women refuse to invest large sums
In garment which they cannot turn
to some other use when they are tired
of its shape or fashion.
This applies particularly to the use,
of colOred furs. They have been used
with great liberality by some Of the
dressmakers but the great furriers
have left them severely alone. They
hold that the cost Sof workmanship
and the tradition of wear and usage
which go with purchases bearing their
name make this fashion, which can
only be passing fancy, unworthy of
treatment by salons Of long standing
Furthermore, 1t has already been adopt
ed to a very wide extent by the less
exclusive shops in Paris, where over
popularity means death to any fashion
For winter many Paris salons favor
the ensemble whose dress matches or
Aarmonizes with the coat, rather than
Aither the tailormade or separate
wrap. There are, however, some notable
exceptions. One is the delightful coat
In corinthian red velveteen. This coat
Is full length and is made with mar
row belt and groups Of plaits on the
hips which give the requisite fullness
that Is a characteristic of the Patou
coats of the present season. There is
a high collar and cuffs to match of
sable-dyed squirrel

State Cossacks
Will Take Power
From the People
Fee Grabbing COnstables Bad
But "COnstabulary" as Pro-
posed Is Much Worse

Columbus, O.-Will the predatory
interests be able to again make joke
of the intelligence of Ohio voters?
The state constabulary bill, to be
introduced in the next general assem-
bly,, is to be a test.
The state police bill has two defin
itei motives-first, to take the police
power away from local communities,
and, second, to maintain a mobile
armed group of strikebreakers to be
used for breaking the heads of work
ingmen who insist upon industrial JUS
tice.
The grabbing constables, bad as
they are, are chosen by the people of
their respective communities. The
state police will receive their appoint
ment and their power from Columbus
and will be superior to and contemptu-
Gus of local sentiment and local pop
ulations.
The main aim of the predatory in
terests today is to gain control of the
legislative and police power. To that
end they are seeking to remove that
power from the immediate control of
the people.
The police power should never be
delegated to any group outside the
immediate governmental unit-muni-
cipal or county. Otherwise the po-
lice power becomes an instrument of
oppression.
If the people of Ohio elect legisla-
tors who will not pledge themselves
to vote against the heinous, state po-
lice bill, then they will deserve all
that will happen to them-and that
will be a plenty.
