so to enforce 1t would command
respect.
I have found, however. curious
impression or state Of mind among
members of congress and other gov
eminent officials that they are above
and beyond the inhibitions of the
prohibition law. Their attitude
would be amusing if it were not so
tragic in its effect upon the great
mass of people who abhor the by
pocrisy manifested by dry-wet
officials.
There is no legal foundation for
extending freedom of the port" or
special privileges of that character
to congressman returning from
abroad. Yet only within the last
few months a congressman wrote
to the undersecretary Of the treas
ury requesting freedom of the port
on his return to the United States,
and the request was granted.
Michaelson Case Cited
The customs collector at the port
Of entry was told by his superiors in
Washington to extend the usual
customs courtesies and free entry
privilege" to the congressman.
When Congressman Michaelson,
another whose case brought free
dom of the port" into the public at
tention, landed from abroad he de-
clared fourteen pieces of baggage.
He was accompanied by four other
people, one of whom declared three
pieces of baggage and the other six.
Although the congressman was
granted free entry privileges with
out examination of his baggage at
the time of landing, he was asked
if he had any liquor, and he replied
that he did not. Of the nine trunks
brought in, three we're checked to
Washington and six to another
destination from which they were
rechecked to still another point. Be-
fore they we're reshipped from the
first terminal, however, they were
searched and seized.
One trunk contained nothing but
a barrel of rum, the interior of the
trunk having been cut so that the
barrel rested neatly in hole in the
tray made for that purpose. One
trunk, found empty, seemingly was
likewise cut, evidently to accom-
modate a key of the same size. No
doubt keg had been in this trunk,
but had been stolen by some one en-
route.
Bottle Gives CIew
A third trunk contained wearing
apparel, in which were packed
twelve bottles of assorted liquors,
and there was the remains of an
other bottle which had been broken.
1t was this broken bottle which at
tracted attention to the trunk and
caused the seizure.
A few days after the seizure, the
congressman came to the offices of
the head of the prohibition unit in
Washington and demanded release
of the trunks. The trunks were re-
leased, but the liquor was retained
as evidence.
The congressman was indicted,
but recently received an acquittal
from the jury in Florida. He denied
knowledge that the trunks con-
tanned liquor. On the other hand,
his brother-in-law, who had been a
member of the party entering the
port, testified that the trunks seized
belonged to him and another mem
Der of the party, and not to the
congressman. He refused, how
ever, to answer questions which
might incriminate him." He is
awaiting trial.
Jury Gives Its Views

gresham entering the port of New
York made statement from which

AMERICAN WOMEN
 TAKE STYLE REINS
Disresardins Paris Fashions and Develop Own Apparel Vogue

New York, April os tP-A new . tyle-consciousness is sweeping inc country but the old traditions lInger.
 America has found prominent place in the world of fashion but Paris still is popularIy accepted a5 rhe fountain head from which flows all that is known as good style Ma ! tional customs are not shattered . easily and this IS one of long stand !. ing. Despite the life Of the tradition, development in creation ot distinc- tive American apparel models has reached the point where the intfu- ence of Paris is Of only secondary importance to the wearer.
 This is the consensus of the styl- ists who lead in charting the course of American apparel fashions. They have no quarrel with the domination of Paris as a style source. but re- gaN it only as an integral part III the machine.
 For style taken by itself, they ar gue. is one point. Interpreting and building that style into garments which satisfy the widely diversified tastes and requirements of American women is another matter, but the really important consideration for the buyer.
 The vogue for 6 French label is on the decline, at least in the opln- ion of Fifth avenue. The freQuent'N experienced necessity Of drastic al terations on returning to America has taken much of the pleasure out of the Paris shopping expedition.
 In these exclusive establishments of the uptown district all the stress is placed on the American models and excellent fitting.
 Importations are on display also, but the clientele usually is not en- courage in this direction. partly be- cause faithful reproductions so often are available in quantities in the moderate priced shops not so far away.
 Exclusiveness is a delusion that Is rapidly fading.
 The Goodmans, Carnegies. Mi = grims steins. Tapes. Blaines and the others in New York believe they interpret a distinctive American mode just as Patou, Doeuillet. "a- auin. Chanel Lanvin. Jenny. Nion- net and their confreres create the bassc lines that are solemnly dcslg mated as the dictates of Paris.
 During the various buying seasons the luxurious salons Of the New York couturiers show a continuous pageant Of the new modes.

 She does all the work. Among the noma5c tribes she is the pack horse, tr1dging behind her hus- band. who carries only his clubs and spears If she stops, she Is whipped.

SEVERAL METHODS
 0F PRUNING ROSES
Each Is Suited to Particular
 Type, Expert Says

BY FURMAN LLOYD MULFURD) ,r. s. Department Of Agricultural
 Washington, April 26.-Roses re uuire distinctive methods Of pruning, depending on their type, growing habits. and the kind O. blooms de- sured.
 Horuculturists distinguish three tvpes-the cut flower roses. the climbing roses, and the decorative roses which are used in the garden in much the same manner as other decorative shrubs
 The pruning Of cut flower roses, Of which typical examples are hy- brid teas. teas perneuanas and hy- nrid perpetuals, depends on the par ttcular end m view,
 + the object is a great mass or flowers on the bush with little re- gard 10 the size Of flower or length of its stem. little pruning need bo done in the spring, If, OH the other hand. the grower desires large blooms with long stems suitable for cutting, pruning should he some what severe.
 It is usual to cut back hybrid perpetual roses to d height Of three feet or less in the fall so that win ter winds will not whip them about and loosen them in the soil. Teas and hybrid teas are cut to TWO feet or less at that time, and the only spring pruning necessary for mass effect is the removal of any dead or weak wood.
 For fine individual blooms the hybrid perpetuals should be prUned back to two feet or less and the hy- brid teas to 15 inches or less. Very vigorous plants may he lr!t ittl" larger. Plants neglected for several years should not be pruncd so S"- rerely the first year. They should be tanned gradually.
 Prune climbing roses just after they are through towering. In the spring weak shoots may he removed. and ir pruning was neglected last summer the branches that bore flowers should be taken our.
 The flowers borne this year vii. b" on shoots from last years growth, The older wood does not produce Towering shoots. Shrub roses should have old wood removed from time to time just as other shrubs.

In old Siberia

There is no basic individual plot
in this film. Amidst the Siberian
billiards. against the dreary winter
landscapes and the gray grim prison
walls, with the mass of criminal con-
victs for a human background, we
see conflict of two element forces.
The prison warden, Ostrobeylo,
with his hangman-like overseers and
the mire of the serville provincial
"society"-these represent culmin-
atively and collectively the camp of
physical force.
Against them stands. out the
moral force as personified by the
group of political prisoners.
The parallel between the two is
drawn in firm, convincing manner.
From the very beginning one senses
the inevitable triumph of the moral
force over the apparently victorious
physical force.
The director has very intelligently
and aptly made use Of a number of
methods evolved in Soviet cinema
Biography by the brilliant group of
experimenters. The film testifies
to the directors artistic fact, his
sensitiveness to subtitle values and
his search of new means of eloquent
screen expression. SIN Old Siberia
has placed Reiseman in prominent
position among the young film di-
rectors in Soviet Russia.
''In Old Siberia" is first of all a
sincere, true, interesting and useful
film.

At a time when some of our
