HEAR RAP
At HOOVER

Declaring President Hoover's
message is a clear indication the
veterans are to be sighted and
saying the organized forces Of
business and bankers are ready
to reap the benefits, former
Senator Rice w. Means, of
Colorado, at rally of veterans
Of the Spanish War at Harding
Hall in the Government Printing
Office, last night urged his
hearers to organize and fight for
their rights.
For this reason, he said, it is
the duty Of every Spanish War
veteran who does not belong to
a veterans organization to join
Immediately.
Mr.. Means estimated that
nearly 400 veterans in and near
Washington do not belong to the
United Spanish War Veterans
organization, and that of 100000
living in the United States 10000
are not members.

SEN. WAGNER SEES BEER ENDING DEFICIT
">"
S3OOOOOOOO in Revenue Looms With Repeal

close that before the war, 263, 900
persons were directly employed in
the manufacture and retail dis
tribution of wine and beer. To
that figure should be added the
workers employed in raising, pre-
pairing, and distributing the raw
material. To that should further
be added the workers employed in
wholesaling the finished product.
To that should also be added the
workers employed in housing,
equipping and managing this large
industry.
$500, 100000 Estimated
Here, then, is a whole reservoir
OF genuine jobs, capable of paying
real wages, waiting to be released
by the word of Congress. What a
boon it would be in these distress
ing times to open up that reSer-
voir and permit it's beneficient in
fluence to extend throughout the
country!
No one can foretell with COM
plete definitenesS the amount of
Federal revenue that could be
made available by immediate modi-
fication of the Volstead act. On
the basis of prewar experience,
I judge that $300,000,G00 could be
very readily raised.

TWO SENATORS
To BACK JOBS
INSURANCE

Compulsory unemployment in
surance for industry today ap-
peared to be recommended by the
Senate committee on compiling a
report on it's Investigations into
the benefits of such a system.
Two of the three members OF
the committee. Senators Wagner
Cd of New York, and Senator
Glenn (RD of Illinois, favor 1t.
Senator Wagner said:
Compulsory unemployment
insurance would be boon to
the employer as well as the
worker.
81 see no other alternative but
for them to be compelled to re-
serve funds during prosperity
for periods Of depression"
Senator Glenn said he was op-
posed to Federal or State subsidy
of unemployment insurance but
favored a compulsory system be-
tween the employer and the work
er in industrial States.
John Emery. general counsel tor
the National Association of Manu-
facturers, has informed the com
mittee of his associations oppo'
sition to any form of compulsory
unemployment insurance. He op-
posed Federal or State subsidies,
saying they would only lead to the
"dole."

REPORT To CITE
SCHOOL NEEDS

Close on the heels of the sub
mission to Congress of the 1888
estimates slashing the budget
for the District public schools
by more than $1,500,000, the
Board of Education will receive
a report showing shortages in
schooIhouse accommodations.
The report, prepared by DR..
Frank w. Ballou, superintendent
of schools. will be presented to
the school board as its meeting
Wednesday.
Along with the budget which
pruned the school estimates for
buildings and grounds to a cut
of $1,624,00O, this report will be
given to Congress for considera-
ton at the public school COM
mittee hearings.
According to DR.. Ballou's
annual report, there will be q
shortage in elementary schools
by February /, 1882, of 1872 class
rooms. At that date, the condi-
tions in the junior high schools
will be such that there will be
an excess of 5.486 students. In
the high schools. the excess en-
rollment that date will be 2,466.

faces deficits of $3.50, 1000 In

The Presidents annual message
and the Presidents budget mes
sage both failed to take account Of
the opportunity to improve the
business situation and of the op-
portunity to open an additional
source of Federal revenue, avail
able to Congress through modifica-
ton of the Volstead act.
A simple change which would
bring the difinition of intoxicat'

common experience would make
possible the manufacture, sale, and
distribution of light wines and
beer and would open places of pri.

by such a change in the law have
