DRY LAW VOTE
IN MICH, NOV, 8

LANSING, Mich, Sept. Is
GN.SD Michigan will vote No
vember on a proposal to repeal
the prohibition clause in the State
constitution and substitute a
liquor control board plan similar
to that of Ontario.
This had been assured today
by Supreme Court ruling that
insertion of the referendum pro-
posal in the November ballot is
legal. Dry leaders had asked for
an order restraining Secretary of
State Frank D. Fitzgerald from
placing the repeal question on
the ballot.
The courts ruling, coupled with
results of Tuesdays primary,
brought prohibition to the front
as the majCr issue of the No
Vember election. 1t will be the
first time since 1919 that the
States voters have had chance
to express their will on the liquor
law.

Purchase Considered

Legislation governing the
sale of gasoline from tank
wagons was being considered
today by the fire inspection
board of the Prince Georges
County Volunteer Firemen s
Association, following a meet
ing of the association in Mt.
Rainier.
The board was instructed to
draw up a model code and to
decide whether the matter could
best be handled by municipal,
county or State legislation.
Another committee, consisting
of George Finger, chairman, v. A.
Simmel, Earle Wyvill, Karl Young
and T w. Venemann, is to con-
slider proposed separation Of the
rescue squad from the county

lances and maintain them.
William j. Tierney resigned
from the fire inspection board
but was Immediately reappointed.
Wesley Kerr was appointed to
fill the board vacancy left by
the resignation of L. v. Moxley.

ton, Floyd Gibbons, war cor
respondent, yesterday ad-
dressed thousands Of legion
naires who packed American
Legion convention hall.
Speaking with characteristic
forcefulness, Gibbons told the
former service men of his ex-
periences in Washington. where
Federal troops expelled with
bayonetS and gas veterans who
went to the Capital to seek
payment of their adjusted
compensation.
Tells of b. E. F. Parade
The convention hall grew
quiet when Gibbons told OF
watching the B. E. F. parade in
washington. He praised orderly
appearance Of the men, military
discipline and clean appear
ance. He said.
"They marched quiet an.
silent. They wore ragged,
frayed shirts, but clean shirts.
There vas no shame on their
faces, though they were clean
and hungry. But there was
shame on our faces as we saw
them go by"
Gibbons said he saw the
homecoming parades of world
war soldiers IA years ago. He
said:
81 saw them marching then
in the glory of their youth,
shining uniforms, bands play
ing and over streets Strewn
with flowers. They were cheered
as defenders Of the nation.
"That light in Washington,
I saw them march again in
hunger, in silence, in rags. I
was going to say despair-but
they had no despair. They were
the most hopeful Americans l
ever met"
Terrific Cheering
The veterans broke into his
speech with terrific cheering.
He continued:
Gibbons referred to his speech
before the national commanders
banquet Monday night.
He said Secretary of War
Patrick j. Hurley had disagreed
with him on the question of the
burning of hutS in the bonus
eviction in Washington. He
added:
There were newSpapermen
there. There were phOtOgra-
pliers there that night.
"And on the question of the
origin of the burning of the
camps of those men, the photo
graph film record is here to
show the truth, even though it
has no sacred word of honor

about that"
A terrific ovation followed.

D. c. OPERATING
COSTS GUT
Times staff Photo

Rising operating costs Of Dis
trict government are the special
target of the District Economy
Committee, appointed last March
to cut the expenses of government
in this city.
The committee, in its brief
term of existence, has not had
tie opportunity as yet to in
vestigate as thoroughly as the
condition demands. But it is
confident that operating costs,
already appreciably reduced. can
be still further cut, and a
through-goinC study of the whole
problem will be completed. it is
expected, before the estimates
for the 1885 budget are called
for.
The necessity for lower operat-
ing costs has already been re-
Vealed by the committees activi-
ties. It's studies to date have
shown that the cost Of District
government, per capita, was only
$28.98 in 1915, as compared with
$69.25 in 1931-the after figure
representing an increase of 139
per cent.
Undoubtedly a considerable
part of this increase is accounted
for by the rise in prices and con-
sequently in salaries since 1915.
The increase in salaries in the
District government generally
has not been in anything like
the proportion of 139 per cent,
however. Increases in costs of
materials and supplies have
approached nearer that figure, in
all probabilits.
