Judge Rockwell, who managed Mr..
McAdoo's campaign in the last Demo-

thinks we'll OF Governor Smith, of
New York, calling him "the outstand-

says Smith cannot be elected "be

There is just one thing that might
elect Democrat in 1928, and that is
too much world court<and league of
nations foolishness. Nothing else
could do it, except hard times and a
panic, and there won't be either.
The Princess. Murat is selling fine
dresses for living. Her friends
weep for her, but need not weep.
Her fate would be described by Mr..
Abraham Lincoln Erlanger as fifty

of her life buying and wearing ex-
ncnsive dresses, she will spend the
second part selling them to ladies'
that still have their money. The
princess will find more real interest
in salesm anship than in merely wear

Washington. March 3O.-LP) Med
icinal beer, comparable in alcoholic
content to the prohibition bever-
age, will he accessible to the public
for the next six months at least.
The new "health booster" which
Anheuser- Busch. Inc, Of ST. Louis
and the Pabst Brewing company Of
Milwaukee, have been given permits
sion to manufacture, is expected to
be accessible to the public ut drug
stores about the time the senate
judiciary committee gets under way
with its hearing on bills designed to
release the fashioned beverage
from present Volstead law restric-
tions.
The only restriction on sale of the
malt tonic will be the number OF
cases drug stores may handle. The
permits granted the two brewing
companies by Assistant Secretary
Andrews of the. treasury allow an A.
coholic content of 3.76 per cant vol.

From five to 25 eases may be fur

10 their size and no prescriptions will

the need Of more and better health.
Where It Gets It's Kick
The "kick" ------- from the healthy
vets standpoint------- lies not in the
alcoholic content but in the warning
that the tonic won't behave. pleasant
ly if treated as Il beverage. Instead
Of seven to ten per cent of malt sol
ids, as in pre- prohibition beer, it will
contain 25 per cent. As a result, Of
ficials explained, excessive drinking
Of the tonic will produce illness. The
difference in alcoholic content is
much less pronounced. rc-prohibi-
ton beer having contained from 3
to 3ls per cent by volume.
The permits for manufacture and
sale Of the tonic were issued for six
months, and provided that the brew
ers should assist the government in
keeping it out Of the hands Of boot
leggers.
Wholesalers already have been ask
ed to assist in the enforcement of
this provision.
The wet and dry leaders, mean
while, are marshalling their forces
for the modification hearings, which
the senate committee will begin Mon
day and continue for two weeks with
the time equally divided betwecn the
contcnding groups.
May Be Sold Anywhere
Prohibition officials expect, the
new medicinal beer to be sold in bone
dry states as we'll as those having
no state prohibition law. In the
opinion of Commissioner Jones Of the
prohibition unit, there are no state
laws that would bar it.
Many tonics and other medicines
containing a substantial percentage
of alcohol are on sale regularly at
drug stores throughout the country
and are obtainable without prescrip-
tion. Mr.. Jones said today that some
Of the tOnics now on the market con-
tain q lesser percentage of solids
than will the new beer.

Milwaukee, Wis, March 80.
--AP-Dr. Mac. r. Schneider,
sS, Of Mott, N. d., who was

DR.. Schneider claims to be
a graduate of the University
OF Munich, Germany, and says
he has an extensive practice
at Mott. N. d. He vowed he
would never 60 back alive to
face the charges.
TO police last night DR..
Schneider admitted that he
had cashed about $1OO worth
of bad checks in Bismarck,

HAD BOARD BILL AT HOTEL.
AND PASSED WORTHLESS CHEZ KS
DR.. M. K. Schneider, who twice at
tempted suicide in Milwaukee last
night after he had been arrested for
bismarck authorities on warrants
charging him with passing worthless
checks here. came to Bismarck on
March and registered at local
hotel under the name of DIR. Will
liam Saucr Of Wahpeton, n. H., ac-
cordIng to local authorities. During
his Today stay in Bismarck. he made
himself acquainted with the prorrie-
tors of several local stores, telling
ut least one Of them that he was to
be associated with local clinic, and
thereby establishing Il credit.
The self styled doctor left the ho-
tel where he had been staying dur
ing the night, the clerk stating that
he must have made his getaway down
4 back fire escape. A check-up with
merchants revealed that his board

2. The extent of such use creates
public tradition and familiarity to
a much greater degree than any one
lighting tradition that may obtain.
8. To change forty eight state
laws, and the habit of the motor
travelling public in this particular is
an unwarranted interference unless
its value as safety measure can
be thoroughly demonstrated.
4. There is no extensive, or con-
elusive data to indicate that the red
tail-light Is the cause of accidents.
5. Railroad officials have stated
that motorists have run around red
lights at crossing gates thinking that
the light has indicated an automo-
bile.
This could be remedied by putting
more lights on the crossing gates,
and in any case the motorist who
would cut around any light without
seeing where he was going would
probably not be affected by the mat
ter of color.
6. Yellow light is regarded by
many as confusing. With eyes train
ed to a red light as tail-light, the
presence of the yellow light in that
capacity gives the impression of a
parking light or of some other sig
nal which is confusing to the driver.

The dealers who find themselves d.

Brooklyn, n. Y, and F. S. Albert
son, of Los Angeles, Cal.

in Detroit, last January. His plan

of these cars since 1914, when the
factory was founded by the late John
and Horace Dodge. Bishop is the
general manager of Bishop, McCor-
mick & Bishop, of Brooklyn, N. Y,
and Albertson is president of the AL
bertson Motor Company, of Los An
geles, Cal.
Mr.. Bishop was born in Brooklyn,
in 1883, received his education in the
Brooklyn public schools and Adelphi
Academy and was graduated from
Amherst in 1906. He went to work

Immediately upon his graduation

Mr.. Albertson was born in Kansas

sas City public schools and was
graduated from Kansas University.
After a preliminary experience as a
travelling salesman for a hardware
firm, he entered the automobile bus

Robert G. Graham, president
and general manager of Dodge
Brothers, Inc, expressed gratifica-
ton over the selection of the two
dealers.
1.-THE dealer who markets our
product is as much a member of the
organization as the factory official"
said he Heretofore, because Of pri-
vate ownership it has been impos-
sible to recognize the importance of
the dealer body by giving them an
active participation in the manage
ment. Now however, with the
business owned by thousands of
stockholders the opportunity is af-
forded to have dealer directors. and
this opportunity will be avaiIed of
promptly in the election of Mr.,
Bishop, representing the east and
MI. Albertson, representing the west.
They are men of high caliber and
have devoted many years to the
advancement of automobile trans
portation. They well deserve the
honor of being chosen as the first
of our dealers to serve as members
of the Board of Directors"
