GAG
IS REFUSED

Col. Henry w. Anderson, mem
ber of the Law Enforcement Com
mission, will not meet with ad-
ministration censorship in ex-
pressing his strong views upon
the liquor issue.
A demand that Colonel Ander-
son be either "Silenced or suS-
pended" for publicly advocating a
government system of liquor con-
troll, as outlined in his recommen-
dations to President Hoover, will
be ignored by the White House,
it was indicated today.

for Law Enforcement, of which
DR.. Clinton w. Howard is chair
man, made protest against Col

DEFEAT LOOMS
ON RUM ISSUE,
SAYS NJ 'ADOO
Ex-SeCretary Will Not Join
In Conference Accepting
Raskob'S Repeal Proposal

LOS ANGELES, April 9 U.SO.
William G. McAdoo, former Secre-
tary of the Treasury. and in 1924
a leading candidate for the Demo
cratic nomination for President,
has declined to be identified with
the Democratic Western States
conference to be held here April
13. ia and is.
In a letter which he made pup
lie Yesterday, Mr.. McAdoo de-
Clined the invitation extended by
Monroe Butler, Democratic county
central committee chairman, TO
become vice chairman Of the COM
mittee of arrangements for the
conference.
Slap at RaSkOb
Mr.. McAdoo asserts that accept
ance would identify him with the
effort of John J. Raskob to force
amendment of the Eighteenth
Amendment on the party as its
issue for 1882. -,
Mr.. McAdoo. in his letter, said:
81 am firmly convinced that
the policies advocated by Chair
man RaskOb will, if adopted
bring certain and disastrous de-
feat to the Democratic party
in 1892. To impinge the next
national campaign, as he pro-
noses. upOn the restoration OF
the liquor traffic, to the sub
ordination of the grave econ.
Omic and social problems now
tearing at the vitaIs of demo
cracy and imperiling the vel
fare of the people of the
United States, would be fatuous
In the extreme.
Here to Stay"
Moreover, to make liquor
the chief plank in the next ma
tiOnal platform is to fight a
sham battle, because the Eight
eenth Amendment is here to
stay, and the quicker we recOg-
nize it the better for Demo
cratic usefulness. But If the
fight is to continue, the pro-
pOnents of repeal who declaim
SO violently about States rights
have their remedy by applying
their own doctrine. Let each
State, in the exercise of its
rights, demand, if it wants to,
that Congress call a COnStitu-
tiOnal Convention to repeal the
amendment. This will leave
the question to the States,
where it properly belongs"

II you feel sour and sunk and the world
looks punk, don't swallow lot Of salts,
mineral water, oil, laxative candy or chewing
gum and expect them to make you suddenly
sweet and buoyant and full Of sunshine.
For they can't do it. They only move the
bowels and a mere movement doesn't get at
the cause. The reason for your down-and-out
feeling is your liver. 1t should pour out two
pounds Of liquid bile into your bowels daily.
If this bile is not flowing freely, your food
doesn't digest. 1t just decays in the bowels.
Gas bloats up your stomach. You have q
thick, bad taste and your breath is foul,
skin often breaks out in blemishes. our head
aches and you feel down and out. Your whole
system is poisoned.
1t takes those good, old CARTER'S
LITTLE LIVER PILLS to get these two
pounds OF bile flowing freely and make you
feel up and up" They contain wonderful,
harmless, gentle vegetable extracts, amazing
when it comes to making the bile flow freely.
But don't ask for liver pills. Ask for Carter's

Delay Caused by Old fashioned
Custom Of Spending Sum-
day With Folks

New York. June 13.-(R-A mod
ern girls adherence to the old-fash-
Toned custom Of spending Sunday
with the folks" has caused q one
day postponement Of a flight ia
France.
Ruth Nichols completed the last
formalities of her projected flight
across the ocean Saturday and for q
time her representatives believed she
would start Sunday. but Miss Nichols
dispelled that belief.
She always tried, she said. to spend
her Sundays with her parents and
twin brother and sister at the Nichols
home In Rye, and she saw no reason
to alter that custom merely to expe-
dite the first stage Of her adventur-
Gus journey.
So the take-off was put off until
Monday, when she will fly, if the
weather Is propitious, to Portland,
Maine. The next day she plans to
proceed to Harbor Grace, N. F., re-
fueling on the way at st. John, N. B..
and Sydney, N. s. At Harbor Grace
she will await favorable weather for
the hop across the ocean to Paris.
All that remained for technicians
to do Saturday vas to make a slight
adjustment of one of the three con1-
passes. Three cornpasses are being
carried because flight conditions
sometimes cause variation. The
theory Of the triple equipment is that
II two Of the three compasses agree
that is the correct reading.

Chicago, June 13.-(P-Anothe,
federal blow at the power Of Alphonse
Capone has been struck.
This time. the government has
moved to dry up the gang leaders
reputedly huge beer business, which
federal officers said they estimated
had become a $40, 900 O0O-a-year en-
terprise.
Capone's indictment. with 60 Of his
henchmen Friday, alleged 5000 dis
tinct offenses under the prohibition
law. Conspiracy to violate the law
continuously since 1921 was charged
During the 10-year period covered
by the alleged conspiracy, federal in
vestigators said, the gang had an
average. of 10 breweries in operation
all the time. Each brewery was des-
cribed as having had a capacity OF
100 barrels a day, which, at SIS a bar
rel, produced gross daily receipts of
SIS, 1000. The total receipts for the
l0-year period "a estimated at $780,
600, 900.
The indictment, the second to be
voted against the gang chief by a fed
eral grand jury within a week, was
viewed as another step in the relent-
less war ordered by President Hoo
yer on r~acketeering. Federal agents
saw 1t as the beginning of the end of
Capone's powerful position.
Capone also is under a six-month
sentence for contempt of court for
failing to answer a summons from a
grand jury investigating 1929 incomes.
Federal agents asserted his gang
has been hard hit financially because
OF high bonds its members hive been
forced to post in federal courts. Costs
OF replacing brewery equipment seiz-
ed In raids also have been high.
Capone was permitted to have his
$50, 900 bond In the income tax in
dictment and his $4,000 bond on his
contempt Of court appeal stand on
the liquor conspiracy charge.
All the gang are subject, upon con-
viction, to two years Imprisonment
and a fine Of 500.

Heretofore whites have been con-

done by negroes, but today any Job
is acceptable to whites. Frequently,
the removal Of negro workers Is i'm
mediately followed by the introduce
ton Of white workers. This. natu-

result that bitterness is cropping up
