WHY PROTECTION rs ASSAILED

There are two sources of attack upon the American
system of protection and particularly upon the tar
if law. One of them is POLITICAL the effort of the Demo
cratic leaders, interested of III the of their
party, and therefore embracing any opportunity to
break down the popularity of the Republican party The
other is commercial headed by international bankers who
have vast of money loaned IN Europe and who think
their investments would be more If the American
market open to European products; and American
manufacturers who have built factories in other
tries in order to take advantage of the cheap labor that
exists there and would profit by law which would admit
the product of these factories to America with low
of duty

AfcKesson charged the bill

Crawford, attending the morn

WAR OPENED BY DRYS
ON WINE JUICE SALES
By United Press

By United Press
WASHINGTON, Feb. s. - Open
warfare on the Federal Aided Fruit
Industries, Inc, of California, was
proclaimed today by DR.. Clarence
True Wilson of the Methodist Board
Of Temperance, Prohibition and
Public Morals.
He has appealed for amendment
OF the Volstead act to prevent mar
keting of "Vine-Glo" grape con-
centrate manufactured by the cor
poration.
"Vine-Glo is a concentrated
grape juice which is delivered to
consumers in unfermented form. 1t
will turn into wine in sixty days.
Senator Tydings Dem., Mo- and
wet, read in the senate today a
letter from DR.. Wilson proposing
amendment of the act. The letter
said the products were advertised
in such a way as to leaev no doubt
they will after delivery become
strongly intoxicating.
DR.. Wilson wrote Tydings in sup
port of the senator's speech this
week decrying the loophole in the
law which permitted manufacture
of 30 per cent wine while 4 per
beer is illegal.

BONUS BILL
is DRAFTED
Owen D. Young Plan Is
Favored by G. 0. P.
Chiefs in House.
BY THOMAS L. STOKES
United Press Staff Correspondent

WASHINGTON, Feb. GA COM
promise bill which would increase
greatly amount of loans on
World war veterans adjusted
service certificates was being draft
ed today by Republican members
of the house ways and means COM
mittee with administration back
ing. 1t would cost the government
about $500, 600, 900.
The measure will be presented
to the committee next week when
it begins to consider bonus pro-
poSals.
The committee concluded its
hearings Thursday.
A canvass now is being made by
Speaker Longworth to see if the
bill could be pushed through in the
form approved by Republican
leaders.
If there appears any danger that
the house would not accept it, but
would vote some proposal not ap-
proved by the administration, the
measure would be held up while
until some other compromise could
be framed.
However, Republican leaders have
found a spirit of compromise in the
house, which especially has become
noticeable since Owen D. Young,
chairman of the board of General
Electric and a leading Democrat,
opposed the straight cash bonus and
suggested advances only to needy
veterans.
Republicans were impressed with
his proposal, which formed a basis
for their new plan, and many
Democrats have switched in their
former allegiance to a straight cash
plan.
The Republican compromise, how
ever, is designed TO apply to all vet
Grams, instead of only those unem-
ployed and in need. -

1.-THE Bluebird already holds the
f1ve-kilometer and five-mile worlds
records, achieved in South Africa
in April, 1929, in addition to the
kilometer and the mile records set
up Thursday.
Therefore, it will not be worth
the time and expense involved, ow-
ing to the uncertainty Of beach and

set new marks for the above dis
tances.
