FINLAND MAY GET BEER
Government Committee FavOrs Dry
Law Modification.
By United Press

By United Press
HELSINGFORS, Finland, Nov. II.
Modification of the Finnish pro-
hibition law to permit beer and
light wines has been recommended
by the government committee which
has been studying the liquor prob
lem in Finland.
The report probably will be made
public this month. The contents
have not been divulged, officially,
but Finnish newspaper interviews
with the chairman of the commit
tee indicated modification of the
law, although its entire rejection
was doubted.
Beer of about 3l5 per cent and
wine up to IL per cent were con-
sidered likely of adoption.

Civil Cases Clog Court

HAMMOND, Ind, Nov. IL. - The
large civil docket Judge Thomas w.
Slick faces in federal court probably
will delay hearing of criminal cases
until Nov. %. Consequently, it is
believed the East Chicago liquor
conspiracy retrial and, the Ralph
Bradford narcotic case will not be
heard at the present term. 1t is con-
sidered possible, if further delays
occur, that Judge Slick may devote
the time to arrangements and ruling
on pleas only before opening court
at FIT. Wayne.

OPEN DRIVE TO
MAKE C. 0. P.
DROP HOOVER
Opposition to denomination
Is MaSSed for Fight at
Convention.
BY PAUL r. MALLON
United Press STAFF Correspondent

WASHINGTON, Nov. 12.-First
hints Of possible organized opposi-
ton to the denomination of Presi-
dent Herbert Hoover are being
heard among independent Repub-
lican members Of congress gather
ing here for the session next month.
The names of three senator's
William E. Borah of Idaho, Hiram
Johnson Of California and George
w. Norris of Nebraska--are being
mentioned in gossipy discussion as
possible leaders of the movement.
The matter probably will come up
at a conference of the western
groups of both houses before the
opening day.
The younger bloods believe bloc
of anti-Hoover delegates should be
rounded up in western states be-
hind some one candidate-Borah,
johnson or Norris. While they have
no hope of ultimate success for
their candidate, they do believe they
might be able to force the nominal
ton Of some one other than Mr..
Hoover.
Think Contest Futile
Older heads think a convention
contest would be futile. Let Mr..
Hoover be nominated, they say. and
then see who the Democrats choose.
If the Democratic candidate is SYM
pathetic to their views, these indie
pendents would go so far as to bolt
the party and throw their strength
to man nearer their ideals.
Norris, the group leader, already
has announced amy man of pro-
greSSive tendencies" can win the
west against the President. Ampli-
flying this announcement today,
Norris, who supported Alfred E.
Smith three years ago said:
MY action in 1923 should be a
good guide to what I will do next
year If Hoover is nominated against
a progressive Democrat. If the
Democrats nominate some one like
Hoover, we will see what can be
done"
Senator Burton x. Wheeler
Dem., MONTH in statement said
that IF the Democrats fail to nomi-
nate Roosevelt or some other liberal
they can rest assured a third party
will spring up embracing the pro-
gressive element in both major
parties"
Assails Eastern Bosses
Wheeler charged "a lot of bosses
in the east" are trying to block the
nomination of Roosevelt because
they think he is too liberal and pro-
greSsive."
Norris is understood to have re-
ceived some demands from indie
pendents in various sections asking
him to run in the Republican pre-
convention battle. He has elininat-
ed himself, however, from the list
of candidates so far as he can do so.
Borah is said to have been ap-
preached by prominent midwest
ern Republican with offers of finan-
cial support if he would lead a
pre-convention anti-Hoover move
ment.
Johnson's recent statements have
been accepted as placing him in the
field of avaiIa h1a noYodidotoc

Gov. Ross was within his rights when he restored the
