DRY SHIFT OPPOSED
BY CHEMIST GROUP
Scciety's Journal Sees Reason for
Separating Prosecutions From
Rulings as to Use.

Transfer of the Bureau of Prohibition
from the Treasury to the Department
of Justice, as discussed in some quar-
tiers, would directly menace the chem
istry industry Of the country, declares
an editorial in the American Chemical
Society's journal, Industrial and Engi-
neering Chemistry.
Examination, analysis and approval
of denaturing formulas cannot be safely
combined with the powers of prosecu-
ton, the editorial stated. ITO give dis
trict attorneys this responsibility of
both crime detection and prosecution
has never been looked upon with favor
by the people" it adds.
Industrial Problem.
Claws in respect to prohibition cover
not only the restriction of beverage
LIQUORS but the permission for the use
of industrial alcohol, and it is difficult
to see any relationship between the ac-
tivities of a department organized for
liquor prosecution and the duty Of ad-
miniStering permits for the legitimate
use Of alcohol denatured for industrial
purposes"
Continuing, the editorial says:
Under the Volstead act the Attorney
General now has the power, to say
nothing of the duty, to cooperate with
the Bureau of Prohibition, and, in a
sense, one department serves as check
upon the other This in itself is a safe
guard to legitimate industry which
should be preserved.
Effect of Change.
"The efforts constantly to shift en-
forcement of the law from one plan to
another, from one department to an
other, and to change the laws, the ne
cessity for which has not been demon
strated, is detrimental to the cause OF
prohibition and annoying without JUS
tice to legitimate chemical industry.
IF those who are dissatisfied with
prohibition enforcement could but see
the wisdom of striving to prevent the
Sinking of duty on the part of district
attorneys and local judges who impose
small fines and refuse to use full power
of the law, and secure within the re-
spective States the activity which is in
cumbent upon them, something might
be achieved"

Shop Paper Causes
FURRY Among Illinois
Harvester Co. Bosses
by q Worker Correspondent

by Worker Correspondent
ROCK ISLAND, Ill.,, (By Mail -
A great sensation was caused among
the workers of the International
Harvester Company here by the APP
pearance of number two of The
Farmall Worker on October LIST.
Carrying a front page streamer
titled Resist the Wage Cut, Organ
ize!" the four page shop paper ex-
posed the preparations of the bosses
to slash the piece rates in all de-
partments and called upon the work
ers to take united action in resisting
the threatened wage CUT
Since the shop paper was issued
there have been some slight reduc-
lions made in about six departments
but the men are preparing to fight
back in case the wage cut is made
general for the whole plant.
Over 1920 copies of the "Farmall
Worker" were sold at the factory
gates on the first day.
The company guards threatened
to beat up the workers selling the
paper at the gates, but did not dare
to carry out their intentions for
fear of the consequences at the
hands of the thoroughly aroused and
sympathetic workers.
S. A. Krieger, local organize of
the Communist Party, however. was
arrested by the police in front of
the Yellow Sleeve Valve Co. in E.
Moline when he distributed sample
copies of the Farmall Worker. The
presiding magistrate tried to trick
krieger into waving a jury trial
but was not successful.
