American friends-and few. II any.
are the American friends who are not
even more delighted about 1t than
their hosts.
Wines and liquors have become an
arm Of diplomacy under the Volsteao
Act. Sinister and insidiOlS as n
thought may be, diplomats have
found themselves immensely o
popular and the Americans a whole
lot more interested in their affairs.
Obviously, the Anti-SalOOn League
and the Methodist Board OF Temper
ancc, Prohibition and Public Morals
mean nothing to an ambassador. But
there arc cabinet officials, senators
and other officials and public men
who can help him directly or mol
rcctly in promoting the interests OF
his country. And good diplomats are
not supposed to overlook any good
bet to improve personal relations
with them.
Serving liquor to Americans has
actually become a serious drain on
some Of the diplomatic missions
whose budgets are restricted. In TACT,
an attachc of one legation recently
wrote complainingly to a washington
newspaper of the extraordinary
thirst of American legislators n
public officials
1t is embarrassing" he wrote. ito
turn a deaf ear always to influential
American officials when they make
the fact exceedingly obvious that they
are not annoyed when packages OF
choice liquors are thoughtfully sent
to their homes"
May Dry T.. S. Embassies
OF course the question Of drying
UP the foreign embassies here is more
or less linked with the proposition OF
drying up our own diplomatic es-
adjustments abroad. Some drys
think our own diplomats ought to
| set the example.
A bill extending the prohibition law
to Americas diplomats in foreign cap
itals doubtless will appear in congress
sooner OF later. though 1t won't have
the approval of the state department
or the white house.
After that it doubtless would be
considered necessary to install a pro-
hihltion agent in each American EN-
bassy or legation to make sure OF
the laws enforcement and to keep Jul
the b~oOtleggerS.

washington, June 10. - Perhaps
some OF the dry brethren IN the Q
remote sections will sleep smilingly
tonight under the quaint illusion that
some of the embassies here have gone
dry and that there is more or less
hope OF drying them all up III the
near future. ".
In the interest OF truth and light. 1t
must be said that such an idea IS
considerably exaggerated and that 1t
is considered very doubtful whether
there will be any change whichever III
the diplomatic liquor situation, de-
spite all the recent colnmotion.
It may be that the p.que OF British
Ambassador Sir Esme Howard VIII
lead him to stop serving alcoholic
beverages at his official functions:
he may even carry out his threat 70
stop importing any more bottles into
the embassy. though he Will Go
neither Of those things If he listens
to the Americans here who are ac-
customed to attend his parties.
Sir Esme Isn't Pleased
There is no question hat Slr
Esne has been very sore at all the
criticism and publicity which his m
bassy has received merely because It
took advantage of the diplomatic
liquor immunity enjoyed by all for
eign diplomats. 1t IS also true that
his prestige as dean Of the diplomatic
corps is sufficient to withstand any
resulting social obloquy.
But the embassy isn't dry now ana
a large consignment OF wet goods IS
already en- route to 1t over the nlgli
seas and only when all that IS con-
sumed will one be able TO tell just
what's going to be done.
Other diplomats have made 1t per-
fectly plain that they aren't going TO
give up the wines and liquors 10
which they are accustomed. II the
British curtail on their American
guests they will be virtually alone In
that respect. and common belief Is
that not even the British are gong
to stop serving what they please

functions.

Many farmers have been surprised to
learn that even though the transmits

they could not be economically supplied
with energy therefrom. They were
obliged to resign themselves to having

to another, without being able to bene-
fit by it.

be easily installed, and should an ex.

The prospect of tax reduction by Con-
gress at its regular session beginning
next December appears to have bright
ened considerably, for the time being at
any rate, though still notified with dark
patches Of doubt.
However, Treasury Department off,
Gals feel that a program for future
diminution Of the Federal Governments
levies can only be accomplished II GER
tain factors are maintained. The prin-
cipal factors which the officials say
would be decisive in accomplishing tax
reduction are the continuation of the
present American business prosperity
with its high volume of tax returns to
the Treasury, and efforts by Congress
to avoid the approval Of large appro-
priations for other than immediate gov
ernmental needs at the regular session.
With President Hoover's announced
desire for tax reduction in mind the
Treasury officials are endeavoring by
every means possible to maintain the
present healthy condition Of the Gov
ernments finances. They are hopeful
about continuance of the present favor
able situation, but they emphasize that,
If these decisive factors are not main
tanned, the time will not be advan-
tageOuS for lowering OF the levieS.
High Treasury officials today outlined
q position of significance for the de-
partment in the event Congress takes
up tax reduction. The department, 1t
was said, will oppose any change in the
administrative provisions Of the present
tax law and will support only revisions
of the levies. This, 1t was explained,
meant that the present structure Of the
Federal Governments taxation will re-
main at least for another year. ~
On Capitol Hill the two members Of
Congress at the head of the committees
which draft tax legislation hold some
what pessimistic view on the prospect
of lowering of the levies. Chairman
Smoot Of the Senate finance commit

He thinks the present high. level of
business probably will not be MAIN
