 Postmaster ErWin's interest in the matter lies in the fact that the mail transfer between the post office and the passenger station is inter forCd with. Chief Hart said today hc felt the one-Way regulation had much to commend it. especially be- cause it lcssencd tho danger to pedestrians at Main and Church street.

Connecticut Co. and Pri- vate Lines Might Oppose Station at Rear of Han mas Block Proposed by Quigley - Airport Still Up in the Air.

No effort Jill be made by the city plan commission to require bus com panics 10 make use Of a proposed terminal in tho rear of the Hanna building until advice has bccn given by the corporation counsel as to the legality of sue, an order, it became known today. Tho suggestion was made at a meeting Of the commits sion last night by cX-Mayor GC-~Ge A. Quigley.
 John NJ. Tracy, Robert F. Mautnor and Prosper Francolino. members Of the commission, arc a committee to consult with Corporation Counsel John H. Kirkham 10 determine whether the city has power 10 issue such an order. The commission an ticipates opposition from the Con nccticut Co. on the ground that th'. trolley company now holds fran chiscs from the state public utilities commission, permitting the usc Of city highways for terminals. and if this contention is sustained, the operators of privately owned lines are expected to raise protest against unfair competition in shunt- ing them off the central highways.
 Inc cndcnts Might Protest .
 Franchises granted private opdr ators also specify where the termin- als shall be but slight changes haye been accepted by these companies n the past without protest. Whether they can fall back on their franchise grants aid refuse to move to the pro- posed terminal, is a question which will be put to Judge kirkham. It has been pointed out that the utili- ties commission. on application by the city, might change the terminals if sufficient reason is shown, but members of the commission are aware that such a change would be accepted only after stiff fight since it would increase operating costs.
 The comm 'ssioners will also ask Judge Kirkham if it is possible to finance c purchase of the land in tHt Itdl OL lHc I1dIlIld DlOtk lnTOug n bond issue to be retired by rentals derived from bus operators.

CORN STATES GIVE
 LIQUOR MATERIALS
Dry" West Largest Source Of
 Illicit Booze in Nation

Washington, Jan. s (UP) -Prohi- bition authorities said today that western farm states, whose spokes- men recently have started a new prohibition Uproar, are the largest sources Of illicit liquor.
 Corn fields Of Idaho. Nebraska. and other midWcstern states. which have long been politically dry, arc held 10 constitute the source of the raw product used in manufacture of thousands of gallons of alcohol sold by bootleggers.
 Industrial alcohol manufacture, which western senators have declar- ed is being tapped by bootlegegrs for large supplies of alcohol, is no longer considered serious problem by treasury officials.
 Every gallon of industrial alcohol produced is dcnatured by highly poisonous government formulas so that bootleggers find it extremely difficult to convert it 10 drinking purposes even when they are able U obtain it, officials said.
 There are immense quantities 2t corn sugar annually produced in this country which bootleggers may purchase without legal hindranna. Corn sugar, officials said, is a vir- tually odorless product and is easy to handle and is readily converted into alcohol.
 Prohibition authorities said official reports from Canada show a mark cd decrease of liquor exports from that country to the United States. This they accept as evidence of suG- cess of their anti-smuggling cam- paign of the past summer on the Great Lakes. Legal exports decrcas- ed about one-half in 1929 as com pared with 1928, it was said.
