EARRING OF PEACHES
RAISES DRY ISSUE
Virginia and Federal Officials Hold
No Law Violated If Juice Is
Not Alcoholic.
b. the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
RICHMOND, Va. September 5.-The
Charlottesville Chamber of Commerce
has asked State and Federal authorities
here whether 1t would be legal for fruit
growers in Albemarle County to con-
serve their surplus peaches by placing
them, raw, in jars with only sugar to
preserve them, to be sold "as is"
The question was placed before the
authorities because after a lapse of time
the peaches would likely become bran
died
Assistant Attorney General E. H.
Gibson and Federal Prohibition Admin
istrator R. Q. Merrick said the question
involved was whether the peaches would
be branded in name only, or in fact.
1t was pointed out by the authorities
that If brandy is poured upon the
peaches or If the process results in an
intoxicating liquor of more than one
half of l per cent Of alcohol by volume
it would seem that those engaged in
such an industry would be subject to
prosecution. But if no brandy were
poured on the peaches and if the proc
ess did not create an alcoholic liquor
it would seem that branded peaches
would be within the law"
The Federal and the State officers
concurred in the opinion that if
branded peaches could be made so
that the juice surrounding them was
not alcoholic there would be no viola
ton of the law"

MEMORIAL TO MARK
CHEROKEE CAPITAL
Government Monument to Be
Unveiled at Georgia
Press Meeting.
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
DALTON, Ga, September 5.-A per-
manent memorial to vanished empire
will be dedicated near here September
IT.
The occasion will be the unwilling of
a Government monument to mark the
site of New Echota. last capital east
of the Mississippi Rivsr of the once
mighty Cherokee Indian Nation.
The inscription on the monument de-
Scribes the remarkable degree of civili-
cation attained by the 10000 members
of the tribe. 1t records that the ma
ton was recognized by the Supreme
Court of the United States as an indc-
pendent community, that it was the
only group of American Indians to
adopt republican form of government
based on written constitution, and
that under the influence of Moravian
missionaries the Indians were Chris
TANNED.
Dedication at Convention.
The monument, erected at cost of
$500. Federal appropriation, will be
dedicated as a feature of the Georgia
Press Association convention.
Advancing tides Of civilization drove
the Cherokees from their strongholds
in Tennessee, but it was at New Echota,
in the North Georgia mountains, that
th2y established their greatest capital.
They once occupied land in Georgia,
Alabama, Tennessee and North Caro-
lima.
chief factor in the development of
the Cherokees after they settled at
New Echota was the invention of an
alphabet by an educated kalf-breed
named Equoyah. This cultural achieve
ment led to the adoption of a written
language and a formal code of laws.
The Cherokees then adopted a written
constitution and organized a govern
ment patterned after that of the United
States. They established schools and
courts and encouraged domestic arts
and crafts.
About two years after the adoption
Of Sequoyahs alphabet, the Cherokee
council made arrangements for the
publication of tribal newspaper Type
was cast in Boston, shipped to Augusta.
Ga, and transported 200 miles by
wagon 10 the mountain capital. On
February 81, 1923, the first issue of the
Cherokee Phoenix. first journalistic eff
fort OF American Indians, came off the
press. Elias Boudinot, an educated
hafbreed, was editor.
Paper Suspended.
Publication was suspended after six
years as a result of internal political
dissension that contributed to the final
downfall of the Indian nation. Before
its suspension, however, the printing
plant had extended its activities to the
publication OF Bibles. hymn books,
school books and theological works
The official end of the Cherokee Ma
ton here was Signalized December %.
1889, by the signing Of the treaty Of
New Echota, under which the Indians
ceded their lands east CT the Mississippi
to the Government for $4,000 900 and
joint interest in lands west of the
river already occupied by some bands
of the tribe.
The removal of the Indians from the
territory was slow and troops under
Gen. Winfield Scott finally were sent
TO eject them.

HALF CHINA'S NEEDS
Flood Sufferers Require 100000

Says.

SHANGHAI. September 5.-The China
Flood Relief Commission said today that
wheat purchased from the American
Farm Board would be less than half
the foodstuffs needed this Winter by
100000 starving Chinese.
The commission was seeking to aug
ment the 100000 bushels of Ameri-
can wheat with huge amounts CT millet
and beans from Manchuria. The COM
mission had no money and Manchu-
rians not only withheld credit. but pro-
tested against the purchase from
America.
Although the Chinese government
estimated there were 100000 flood
sufferers, the commission believes it
would need food for only 100000 600
The American wheat would supply 450-
900 tons of the necessary 100000 tons
of fCodstufTs.
With at least 100000 reported dead
in the Northern Kiangsu Province flood
of the past fortnight, conditions there
continued narrowing. Additional towns
were being flooded daily. increasing the

he represented Japan, to the Pacific Re-

In an interview he said Japan does
not have the widespread crime with
which the United States is trying to
grapple-becauSe of the powerful re-
straining influence of Japanese family
life, with its traditional veneration for
ancestors.
1T may be difficult for Americans to
comprehended," Tsurumi continued, but
Japanese is intuitively reluctant to
commit a cri re because it would be
blot on the memory of his grandfather,
great-grandfather, great great-grand-
father and also on his own descendants.
