TWO FROHMAN
RESTAURANTS
ARE POPULAR
Quality Service at 1903 w.
Maryland and 244 S.
Meridian St.

For centuries the inn-keeper who
fed itinerant travellers has been eu-
logized in literatures because of the
traditional influence he has had upon
human progress.
Hence, in the modern restaurant,
where persons are fed, sustained and
strengthened by the food served
them, history and literature are be-
ing written each day OF the year.
The Frohman restaurants, which
have adopted the trade slogan, 1.-TWO
good places to eat" located at 10S
w. Maryland st. and 244 s. Meridian
ST.. have played their part in the
daily drama Of helping mankind.
Quality service" has enabled
these restaurants to conduct bust
ness successfully. The variety of
food offered has been excellent and
satisfied patrons have resulted.
Special attention is given short
orders in each of the two restau-
rants Experienced walters and
kitchen help, CAREFUL supervised,
have contributed to the reputation
of both places.
Patronage at both restaurants has
been good during the summer
months at a time when many per-
sons 'Iet down" on eating. A heavier
business for fall and winter is ex-
pected.

I'VE are ready at all times to as
sist all who may desire help in solv-

Proper lighting is essential to
good health and good business. The
business place that IS poorly lighted

SARGENT UPHOLDS
 COOLIDGE DECREE
Finds Dry Enforcement Order Is
 Not Unconstitutional

Washington, May 25 [Fl - Under fire in congress and elsewhere on grounds that it is unconstitutional and it's purport inadvisable. the eX~ ,cutive order authorizing enrolment of state and local police as federal prohibition agents is held by Attor- uey General Sargent to he legal.
 Secretary Mellon, meanwhile, has conceded that he would not have recommended promulgation of the order if he had forescen the Contro- versy it has aroused but, since it lis doing no harm," he does not plan to urge it's revocation. His view as Ito the harmfulness of the order. however, was not shared by Senator Robinson of Arkansas, the demo- cratic leader, who described it as the worst blow that has been strucl, against prohibition" even though this effect was unintenlionai.
 In inc meantime, Ned NJ. Green. prohibition administrator at san Francisco, is holding up operation of the order in California, where it was primarily intended that it should apply. pending conference with Assistant Secretary Andrews. Ar engagements already worked out with some deputy sherilfs in California for cooperation within federal otfi- cials in the effort to enforce prohibi- tion in that state, treasury officials have explained, caused the promUl- gation of the order, which was de signed to give their activities legal status
 No geenral application of the order has been contemplated, Secretary Mellon emphasized yesterday, adding that it would be put into effect in other regions only at the request of state authorities and with the con- sent of the individual officers af- fectcd. As far as California is con ccrncd. Green. although feeling that the real issue has been lost sight of or definitely distorted, said he had no intention of attempting to impose the rule on those officials who resist it." The purpose, he eX- plained, was to give rural deputy sheriffs the federal authority con- templated, and not to apply the order in populous centers.
