MEXICO CITY, June 25.-Al- though it has not been specifically mentioned by name, in the final analysis Mexicos prohibition cam paign, recently inaugurated by Pres ident Portes Gil and now gaining a momentum throughout the country is in reality aimed at a single alco- holic beverage-pulque- which is far and away the leading drink evil of Mexico.
 But because of the very factors that make 1t the principal drink evil. the abolition of pulque is ad- mittedly impossible within a short time The most earnest advocates of prohibition admit that pulque can be abolished only after long period of years and by hardest ef- forts.
 The factors that make pulque the national drink of Mexico and its production the countrys leading ag-

ANOTHER RUMOR
 MISSING PL LANE. SEEN ON OCEAN
Wireless Message Indicates Sight of Four Missing
 Spanish Pliers

MADRID, Spain, June 25. Y A second unconfirmed report has reached here of the sighting of the wreckage of hydroplane about 100 miles off the Azores coast which might be that of the missing Span ish fliers Capt. Franco Ramon and three companions.
 The report was TeeeivS. s:aNa the radio company which picked up messages from an unnamed British freighter.
 The rumor is considered improb- able as it is not likely that the Ramon craft could keep afloat that long.
 The opinion in Madrid is that the four fliers are lost unless they might have been picked up by small vessel not equipped with wireless.
 Spanish destroyers and airplanes are continuing a search for the missing fliers.
 Capt. Franco Ramon and his crew left last Friday for an attempted flight to New York City. The crew was last seen when the plane pass ed the southernmost point of Spain.

Puts o. K. on
 |Lipstick and Rouge

RIVER FOREST, H., June 25.- If lipstick and rouge make women more attractive, moderate use is all right in the opinion of Dr. Walter Maier, an editor of St. Louis.
 Speaking before the Annual Ev- angelical Lutheran Missouri Synod convention, he said that painting and powdering were not sins of the modern youth.
 "In America, as early as 1886, we read of a Boston belle who pow dered to hide her age. She used so much powder she was hardly able to laugh. Colonial papers of Puritan protype carried advertise ments of powder"
 Dr. Maier said the good old days are considered good only because they are too far distant to permit of their inconsistencies and ab- surdities being revealed.

found and at times apparently in- surmountable m S u n derstandings not to mention the feeling of hos tility which exists in more or less varying degree between the white and yellow races.
 Communism, too, with it's di- rect, clear-cut and brutal propa- ganda frequently helps stir up a feeling of hatred which no maryels of modern technical progress can allay.
 But, as the office pointed out in report to the governing body, it's affirmation of the principles of the organization and it's efforts to have them understood and trans lated into practice should in them selves create fresh possibilities of conciliation and peace"
 Mir. Thomas thinks that probably the most encouraging progress in 1928 was in the field of interna- tional labor legislation. There has been an unprecedented increase in the number of notifications of la bor conventions. While former reports have noted some 34 or 35 fresh notifications per annum, (on one occasion 5D no fewer than 79 were recorded between March 1928 and March 1929. A spirit of com- petition seems to have shown itself among the large industrial coun- tries; while other states which have till now remained indifferent or hesitating are taking action which should lead to the acceptance of international labor conventions.

GENEVA, June 25.-The great masses of world peoples are moving towards higher culture, intellec- tual emancipation and moral inn provement, with deep aspirations towards social justice, in the opin- ion of Albert Thomas, director of the. International Labor Office.
 In his annual report, MT. Thomas, who recently made an extensive tour of the Far East, declares his Judgment that an effective contri- button will have been made toward abolishing the sharp sense. of racial inequality when uniformly equitable and humane working conditions are established for all. To bring about justice and equity in labor conditions will, in MT. Thomas opinion, be great contribution to the peace which the League of Na- tions is seeking to consolidate.
 Referring to the Far East the di- rector says that the organization has established helpful contacts with countries. whose civilization is old, but whose industry is still young with races whose instincts as well as their traditions and cul- ture make them in general ready to accept and follow the great prin- ciples contained in the pact of the League of Nations and the inter- national labor charter. He adds:
 There are still innumerable pre- judices, conflicting interests, pro-

M AKINC NEW PROPOSAL ON
 ENFORCEMENT
Former Assistant Attorney General Suggests New
 Scheme Now

WASHINGTON, June 25.-Call- ing for flair and square show down with view for more eff fective Prohibition Enforcement
 Wade Ellis. Assistant Attorney Gen
 eral during the Taft administra-
 tion, advanced the proposition that
 Federal funds for Prohibition En-
 forcement be withheld from States
 not coooerating in upholding the dry laws.
 Ellis believes the plan would in- spire "a great sense of personal and local responsibility under the concurrent power for enforcement granted in the Eighteenth Amend Iment and would have an immediate electrical effect all over the coun- try. The proposal means that where people of any State shows by legislative actions they want bootleggers and saloons, let them have them and the Government can let those States enjoy the com Ipany of their choice. Almost inn mediately, or as soon as it is realized the choice is squarely up to them, they would set about to solve it. Two solutions would face the people: First-try. to induce others to join them in an attempt to repeal the Eighteenth Amend ment, or second-finding them selves in the clutches of the law, would not repeal the law as they would not be able to regulate the outlaws and they would then con- clude to enforce the Constitution

DIVERS LOCATE ISLANDER SAFE;
 MAY RECOvERIT
Wiley Says Safe in Plain Sight and Will Be
 Raised in Few Days

The purser's safe of the ole Canadian Pacific liner Islander variously rumored to contain from $100,O0O to s6OO,0O0, which went down when that vessel was wrecked off the lower end of Douglas Is- land nearly 28 years ago, is in plain view and will be raised within g few days, according to E. H. Wiley of Olympia, who with his brother Carl H. Wiley, also of Olympia, ia in charge of the party which has been operating from the tug, Finch, for the last several weeks in an effort to locate the vessel and the safe, with its lost treasure.
 While they had no difficulty in locating the Islander, lying in about 250 feet of water, they were delayed over week because it was thought that the ship lay crosswise in the channel, when in reality it lies lengthwise, MT. Wiley said.
 The ship sank bow first and the rush of compressed air blew off the two upper decks, leaving the pur- ser's office exposed, with the safe in plain view, he said. They ex- pect it to be matter of few days until the safe is raised
 An entirely new diving bell, shap- ed like an egg, in which the diver sat on stool, with his head pro truding in an enclosed cage with port holes on four sides, and oper- ated mechanical, jointed arms, with five fingers eacn, was used by the divers. The bell is filled with air and dropped over the side, at tached to the tug by strong cable and a telephone line. In this it was possible to remain under water for approximately an hour before coming to the surface to have the air rcplenished, he said. The bell has treads on the bottom, similar to tractor, which enables it to move about on the sea bottom.
 The Islander is encrusted with barnacles and marine growth from eight to 10 inches deep and is alive with huge beetles, eels and other creatures of the sea, MT. Wiley said.
 They plan to continue searching for American Express boxes they think contain gold which was being shipped south on the Islander.
 The Islander struck an iceberg in the early morning of August 15, 1901, and sank within twenty min utes. About 65 persons, including Capt. Foote, her master, lost their lives. The survivors and recovered bodies were brought to Juneau. The vessel sailed from Skagway for the South with a good passenger list. Many of the passengers were known to have Klondike gold aboard, and some of them, at least, had commit ted their "pokes" to the purser, who had locked it in the safe, it is believed.

POUGHKEEPSIE, N. Y, June 25. Riding the crest of the rcighest water in the 34 years of regatta history, Columbia's great varsity crew swept to smashing victory in the gathering dusk last night to win the Intercollegiate champion ship of the United States for the second time in three years.
 The Columbians rowed to a de- cisive victory, three lengths over the surprising University of Wash ington's boat as disaster overlook California. worlds champions of last year and three other crews.
 How They Finished
 The shells finished in the fol- lowing order:
 Columbia. Washinfton.
 Pennsylvania.
 Navy.
 Wisconsin.
 Darkness obscured the finish and 1t was some time before the posi- tion of any but the first two shells was known positively.
 Shells Waterlogged
 All the shells were waterlogged and Washingtons shell nearly sank at the finish.
 California's shell was swamped half mile from the finish.
 Massachusetts Tech was swamped near the two mile mark.
 Syracuse, an early contender, sank to the level of the river at the three mile mark.
 The Cornell shell broke under the weight of the water shipped on the way down, forcing the Ithicans out of the race, half a mile from the finish.
 Freshman Race
 The Syracuse Freshmen led all the way over the two mile course of that race to win with Califor- mia second and Cornell third.
 Junior Varsity
 Cornells junior varsity came from behind with smashing finish to win. Columbia was behind half a length. The Navy was third and University of Washington fourth. By Cornell winning the Jayvee event it was the first time since 1920 that the New York state schools have swept all three events.
