The 1892 Congressional campaign

The 1882 Congressional campaign
 is already started. While. the prf- maries at which candidates for seats in the house of representatives will not be held for fifteen months, in most instances, those gentlemen
 holding certificates of election to the 72nd congress and all the others who aspire to seats in the 73d, which will be elected in November, 1892, are learning that, notwithstanding the desires of the leaders of both major
 parties that the prohibition issue be
 relegated to the rear, it will be i'm
 possible to keep the discussion of the
 liquor question in abeyance.
 There arc many organizations, rep
 resenting both sides of the contro-
 versy, already actively engaged in
 presenting their views through the
 press, the radio and the "broadside".
 The Anti-Saloon league Is preparing
 to gather into its coffers Q few more millions to be used in educating" the ignorant electorate on. the sub ject of the beauties of prohibition, for the league, not content with closing the saloons, which was its original reason for existence, now | incidentally the speakeasies and the
 bootlegger with all the power of its expensive eloquence. To that end the league is out with q touching appeal for financial support in it's efforts to rebuild its organization
 down to counties, cities and towns. On the other side of the picture
 is the militant organization known
 as the Association Against the Pro- hibition Amendment aided by that
 body of young men known as the Crusaders which are intensively &C., tive in spreading propaganda de-
 signed to bring about the repeal of the 18th amendment to the constitu- tion. The Congressional Districts Modification league Is endeavoring to obtain results in the congress to
 be elected in November, 1892. Re- peal of the 18th amendment can not be secured for ten years at least. for | the reason that the first requisite is affirmative action on the part of two thirds of the membership of both house and senate, followed by ratification of such a proposal by two thirds of the states. No one who has any knowledge of the his tory of constitutional amendments
 will believe for a moment that such an amendment as that which will be
 required to repeal the 18th patch on the fundamental law can be pro-
 cured within Q shorter period than 10 years. But any law may be modi-
 fled easily during one session of con-
 gress, provided of course that ma-
 jority of both houses is favorable to that modification.
 The Congressional Districts Modi-
 fication league was organized for the purpose of ascertaining how many people of the United States desire the modification of the Volstead act
 so as to permit the use, for bever-
 age purposes. of light wines and
 beer. The league Is absolutely self
 supporting. It neither solicist nor accepts contributions. but pays all
 its expenses out of the dues which
 its members pay, and those dues are
 but one dollar year. Furthermore
 the league submits the report of its
 auditors to the clerk of the house of

N0TRE DAME NUTMEGGERS
DIVORCED WIFE
 OF KING CAROL
 IS RULED OUT
Helene Will No Longer Be Considered a Member of the Royal Family of Ru1lania

Budapest, Hungary, May 25-- (UP)-Helene, Princess of Greece and divorced wife of King Carol of Roumania, has been ruled out from the Royal family, the R0umanian newspaper Patria, organ of the Ma tional peasant party, said.
 In Banner headlines, the Patria published report that military commanders had been ordered to treat Helene, whom Carol only last year proclaimed his queen ,as Q private person in future. She is to receive none of the .honors ac- corded only members or the royal family, the dispatch said.
 The Patria said Premier Nicholas Jorga of Roumania had urged Carol to take this action.
 The report followed months of efforts to effect a reconciliation be. tween Helen and King Carol. Carol flew back to Mucharest last June and seized. the throne. He named they were divorced, and made ef- forts to get the divorce annulled. Helene, however, could not for give Carol for deserting her and their son, 9-year-oid Crown Prince Michael, for Mime. Mazda Lupescu, red-haired wife of Romanian arml officer with whim Carol went ito France. Helen waited two years and then divorced him.
 She has remained in Romania since Carols return chiefly, 1t has appeared, to be with their son, the
 former boy-king whom Carol re- placed when he came back to claim lthe throne last summer.

UNITED STATES HAS THE POWER
 TO LEAD WORLD
Industries Should Provide Plan to Provide Employ ment in Times of Depres- sion-Farrell and Swope Speak

New York, May 25-(UP)-James A. Farrell, president of the United States Steel Corporation and chair man of the national foreign trade council, believes trade activity Is definitely on the increase, while Gerard Swope, head of the General Electric company, has put forward a plan to avert unemployment in times of depression.
 The United States possesses the power to lead the world in trade recovery, Farrell told a nationwide radio audience last night. This power he said, to be effective, must be di- rected to the solution of the domes- tic depression, which would aid the entire world. Farrell recently cri- ticized as "pretty cheap business" the action of some large steel and iron companies for reducing wages during the present crisis and de- clared such action would retard the business recovery.
 Swope expressed the belief over a radio network last night that i'm dustry should defray the entire cost of its product, moulding the cost of assuring regular employment In times of economic depression. He declared the stabilization of em- ployment was better than attempts by private and public charities to aid suffering unemployed.
 Farrell said business recovery in the United States was not wholly conditional upon the problems in other lands. He pointed out, how ever, that 1t was essential that mar kets be found abroad for at least ten per cent of the total production of farms and manufacturers here.
 Much of the delay in the return of buying activity has been due to lack of confidence in the future. he said. However, he believes the vast in- crease recently in savings bank de- posits is one of several symptoms which shows that business is on the uptrend.
 Swope. in putting forward his plan for industries to bear the costs of unemployment during times of de- pression, said the "demoralization of likeness and irregularity of employ ment is not only demoralizing to the individual. but to his family. and reacts upon society" He believes if the employe did not have to fear lack of employment, he would face his work with a different att titude and increase his efficiency.

PRESIDENT HAS BEEN PROMISED
 REDUCTIONS
Three Govt Departments Have Made the Promises That Will Amount to S75,OOO,OOO
By PAUL R. MALLON United Press Stan COrrespOndenl

(United Press StaR COrresponden)
 Washington, May 25.-(UP)-l President Hoover will save about |$75,O00,000 in three governmental departments in the next three years, If tentative promises of heads of those departments are realized.
 The president returned from the Rapidan river camp to-day with the assurance of Postmaster General Brown that it should be possible to |save $53,O0O,000 in the postal service |-$3S,000.000 in the year closing June |30, and $15,000,000 the following year. He gave the public indication |of how this would be done.
 On two previous week-ends he has listened to promises of Secretary of War Hurley and Secretary of the 1n- |terior Wilbur of Economies which in three years would total $22,000.000. The public was not informed regard ing Secretary Wilbur's method. Sec |reatry Hurley proposed to save about $5, 100000 by abandoning some 20 Ito 50 obsolete and political forts. Totals in the three departments were: Post ofiice, $53,000,000: in- |terior, $17,000,00O; war. $5,000.000. lit has been reported that Postmaster General Brown is in favor of increas- ling the first-class postal rate to help Ireduce his deficit. Wilbur is said to believe that about the only econ- omies possible in his field would be lin the Indian bureau.
 | Any retrenchment there Is sure to cause an uproar in congress, many of whose members feel the Indians are not receiving proper treatment as it is. Hurley's plan to ab0ndon
 old forts is expected to meet with
 determined opposition from politi-
 clans and patriotic organizations. ale
 though in some few cases he already
 has received authorization.
 Brown reported postal receipts this
 year would show decline of $58,-
 100000, but that postal savings de-
 posits were increasing. It was agreed
 the economy drive should not include
 discharge of employees or wage cut
 ting.
