SHEPPARD DR|EST
 OF ALL CONGRESS
Hates Alcohol and Everyone Who Drinks, On Moral Issue

Washington Jan. 2J UP)-T1c driest man in the world IS Senator Norris Sheppard, the Texas demo- crat, author Of the 18th amcndmeEt champion Of a pending bill 10 ma%c inc buyer Of liquor equally guilt with the boo.lcgger and a central figure in the present prohibition ro- form controversy.
 Sheppard hates liquor. He hats beer and he hates wines. And ne hates anyone who likes them. He looks upon alcohol as q poison or t drug and he was the first public official to take the leadership for prohibition in 1910 because Le looked upon it as a health measurs.
 Saw Beer at Nalc
 Fresh from Yale in 1928 when beer mugs were prominent educI- 1!onal accoutremcnts, Sheppard came 10 congress as secretary to his fath-' a Texas representative He ncv1r owned a Yale mug and he nev@f drank at Yale.
 His first demand for prohibition was in public letter sent to friend in Texas in 1911 recommend l. ing a state prohibition law. The lc1- Ter did not have much effect. b. cause the law was defeated at that time by 5.0oD majority. However, he took up the cause and ran for senate in 1912 on a platform to' statewide prohibition. nationwide prohibition and worldwide prohibl- tion." He soon came 10 the rcailz lion Of the first two blanks in his three plank platform.
 The Anti-Saloon League and the w. C. T. |. which, up to the time O. Sheppard's election, had Worke only for state reform laws, thea jumped into the campaign to malc he nation dry with one stroke. One cold and wet afternoon, December 10, 1913. 1000 members Of the Ami Saloon League marched up to the capitol, soaked to the skin from the rain, and presented what later be-
 
 pard and Rep. Hobson.
 Gets Bill Passed
 For four years following. Shep- pard worked futilely to get consil- cration Of the amendment Finally he got it passed. He is author also Of the District of Columbia prohibit ton bill, and q previous bill known as the Sheppard-Kcnyon act to suo- iect liquor coming into a state to the jurisdiction ot the laws Of the state.
 The arch dry now is working on another bill which will be taken up by the senate judiciary committee as soon as the tariff bill is out cf the way. He wants to subject the buyers Of liquor to the years anI Sl0,000 fine penalties Of the rccert Jones act and is prepared 10 submit evidence in open hearings that his measure will make prohibition eu- forcemcnt effective.
 There have been several stori.s afloat in Washington. and some Of lhcm have reached print. infcrrins that Sheppard had & personal cn- counter with the demon rum in his carly youth and hated liquor since. These stories have been consistently and emphatically denied by ;hc senator, who attributes his aridity Q his conviction that liquor is as vile io public health as a poison or q

COAST SHIPPERS SLOGAN,
"FRUIT FOR ALL the WORLD"

In the train that pulled out Of White
Bluffs Monday forenoon for the main
line at Beverly, there were II cars Of
apples from this valley six of them
from Hanford and eleven from White
Bluffs. While the records have not
been checked it is believed that this
is the largest shipment of apples that
has ever been made from this valley
in any one day. Most of the cars were
billed to Eastern markets.
But while most of the apples from
the fruit districts in Washington are
rolling to markets in the middle west
and along the Atlantic coast, certain
portion are moving to Seattle where
the foreign market shippers, with the
slogan, Fruit for all the World" are
preparing to load them on boats for
ports in South America, Europe, Asia
and the Orient
In the list of boats recently sailing
from Seattle with at least part of
their cargo made up of apples were
the Norwegian motorship Brimanger
which took aboard % 500 boxes for
Brazil and Argentina; the French
steamship Winnipeg which took on
5000 boxes for Havre France and the
German motorship San Francisco with
twenty-eight carloads for Hamburg,
Germany. Other boats loading this
week include the British steamship
Garcia with $4,000 boxes for London,
Liverpool and Glasgow and the Italian
motorship Fella with 5000 boxes for
Alexandria, Egypt.

Shawnee Fruit Ranch

Wib Morford, our apprentice
packer is not so speedy as yet but is
steady. He has run his count up to 145
boxes day and has hopes of being a
Big Leagu er some day.

Our youthful truck driver, Bart
Gayman, is not sure whether he is a
real truck driver or a grocery deliv-
cry boy. He starts out all right with
one job, but seldom fails to wind up
with the other one.
Everybody got a good laugh one
day this week when one of the pack
ers threw a Gull apple back to one of
the sorters and the latter, startled,
thought she was making a double play
and whipped it back at him. The play
was so fast that he missed it and was
charged with an error.
w. T. Morfurd, warehouse bumper,
beams all over when the sorters can
keep ahead of the packers. When
this happened one day last week, he
treated all hands to watermelon.

The Rome crop on the R. j. Rob-

ed 100 or larger. The quality was al
SO good as there were only about sew
en- percent of them &c" grade.
