BREWER,
. REVEALS FEAR
Of K|DNAPERS
BY JAMES L. KILGALLEN
Copyright. 1892. ny International
NeMs SnrNicel

ST. LOUIS, Dec. G.N.S0.
August Busch. sr.. multilnillion-
aire president of Anheuser.B Busch,
Inc, revealed during an interview
in his private office today that
he carries within arms reach two
loaded revolvers because of fear
that he might be kidnapped.
The revelation, made for the
first time. came while Americas
foremost brewer was discussing
business conditions and what
legalization of beer would mean
to the country.
Busch, 66 years old, heavy-set,
full-faced, with gray side whiskers
cutting across his tanned cheeks
at right angles. suddenly pulled
open a drawer of the desk at
which he was seated and ex
claimed;
"See this gun. ut looked like
a horse piStOD. l keep it right
with me. And (yanking open
another drawer) see this one,
too. l can take care of
myself"
Grandson Was Kidnapped
Busch spoke feelingly of the
Lindbergh kidnapping and the
kidnapping case in his own family
the abduction on New Year
Eve of 1880 Of his 14-year-old
grandson, Adolphus Busch Orth-
vein. The boy was held captive
until late in the afternoon of
New Year Day, when he was
returned unharmed. Charles Y,
Abernathy, 28-year-old unem-
ployed negro, was convicted of
the crime and sentenced to 10
years in the penitentiary.
Sees Nickel Beer Soon
Busch said that prior to prohi-
bition racketeering was unknown
in this country. He was asked if
there was any danger, if beer is
legalized, that racketeers would
endeavor to muscle in" on the
big brewers, such as himself. He
didn't think there was any dan,
ger of that.
He said it will not be long be-
fore the American public will be
able to buy its glass of beer at
5 cents.

Priming Employment Pump

The Departments of Commerce and Labor have been gathering information about various employment plans in different industrial concerns and communities. It will be presented for discussion at the forthcon- ing national conference on Unemployment called by President Hoover. There are said to be a dozen or more schemes either already in operation locally or proposed for experi- ment. There is the Swope plan under which employees would be switched from dull de- partments to busy ones, and the week split so as to employ as many persons as possi- ble with part-tme jobs at least.
 The Kellogg plan, already practieed by food manufacturing company, embodies sx-hour day and 12 1-2 per cent wage increase. The stagger plan, advocated by an oil company president, has been success ful, he says in keeping men on pay rolls, though at reduced working periods. Other proposals are the five day week, the six hour day, the dismissal of married women whose husbands are employed, and the "ro- tating plan which calls for four or five eight-hou shifts taking turns at working
 The railroad brotherhoods have suggested they will ask Congress to legalize 34hour week this winter. The New Hampshire plan. suggesting 10 per cent cut in the working time of all the 32,000.000 workers in the country, would be supposed to put 3,000,000 of the unemployed back to work.
 Back of the growing official and private interest in such suggestions is the belief that putting goodly number of unemployed workers back on jobs. even on part time and low pay. is needed to set the employ ment gaing. It is like priming the old well. There is plenty of work to be done. Plenty of people need and would gladly buy. if they had money. things not now, being manu factured in sufficient quantity to supply the nations needs A little judicious priming. it is hoped will start the industrial pump to flowing again, not in flood tide, but in life giving. refreshing force.

Expansion of the Connecticut state fof- est and park system seems to be temporarily curtailcd by lack of funds for such purposes. However. we are progressing rapidly in ac- quisition of public lands. For its size this state compares favoraoly with others noted for such work. Of coufse. we can't. offer the huge national parks of our western states nor those recently acquired in the South. but Connecticut's program of state park and forest expansion is based on good common sense. We acquire where we can and when we can. accepting in the interim all gifts that do not force the state into an undesirable contract. More and more our state parks and forests are attracting peo- pie. The automobile has enabled many sections of the state, hitherto inaccessible to be thrown open for reereational purposes. We hope to see more acres available in the years to come.

Here's a List of Five Best
 Books in July

The month of July brought sew eral really good books to the mar. ket. and any list of the. five best books'' of the month Is bound to contain some first-rate reading matter.
 Here are the books that seem to this reviewer to have been at the top of the months output:
 "We Begin;'' by Helen Grace Carlisle. This novel of three peo- pie who came over on the May flower is beautifully written and deeply interesting--a book that will : make the legendary folk of |1G20 seem always a, little more hu- man and understandable to you. Please don't miss it.
 "The3 Forge" by T. S. Stribling. Tn this: book MT Strfbling depicts the south during reconstruction days and paints a living piceture of a tragic and confused epoch in our history. The books style may be undistinguished, but there's solid nourishment in the narrative.
 Dawn in Russia by Waldo Frank-a discussion of the Soviet eApSElIueUS sWuACM- s6HulSS SSuGc- tics and tries to examine the irn- ponderables; one of the best books on Russia yet written.
 "A Preface to Death" by Fred Rothermell--a grim but spiendidly written novel about two people who found love. while under sem ,tence of death from tuberculosis. <
 Lastly, there's. House of Van isFied Splendor." by William Nc Nally, an uneven but powerful novel Of . pioneer family on the Mississippi. s5ss.

She was acquainted with the workings of hes husbands office in his many years in. Washington and can back up her stand on various subjects with information gathered in this fashion. plus her own shrewdness and interest in current affairs It is said that Senator Huey P. Long. the Louisiana firebrand. did valiant campaigning for her in Arkansas. We heard this explained one time recently in the following fashion. His desk in the Senate chamber adjoins Mrs Caraway's. Naturally he showed interest in her career and was ready with whatever aid he could offer. He learned that Arkansas politicians intended to sdetrack her this summer and nominate a man to their liking He, therefore, resolved to aid her campaign and that he did is evil denced in her profuse thanks of this week. The Chair recognizes the lady from Arkan- sas. And another chapter in American sui frage is started.

Profits on illicit liquor sold in this coun- try in the last twelve years amounts to more than Sl7.000,000. At least that's what Malvern Hall Tillitt declares in his recent book - The Price of Prohibition" Mir Tillitt started to investigate prohibition ten years ago. He was firm believer in it then. Today he is convinced that it is far from success. He says in part "A product of conditions brought about by the dry law, illicit liquor has grown until, as meas ured in value of products or wares it heads the list of the nations richest industries. And,
 in that spectacular place of leadership, it stands towering monument to the failure of national prohibition. The colossal failure that is national prohibition stands proved by increase in evil effects of bootleg drinking Gas is shown in the increase of deaths. diseases of body and mind and arrests chargeable to aloohoD, by increase in dis tribution -and-sale facilities Gas is evidenced
 in the prevalence of speakeasies, in number exceeding the licensed saloons of former time. and the spread of bootlegging through

Pennsylvania's Mistake

There is rather widespread approval of the Reconstruction Finance Corporations re-. fusal to lend money to Pennsylvania until that state has gone farther in its effort to- ward elf-help. Critics of the Keystone state say it ha snot increased its tax on cigarets or gasoline, has no direct tax on manufactures and no direct state tax on property as many other states have. Out siders are not convinced either, that Penn sylvania has done all 1t can to raise funds privately.
 In the first three loansi made-to Illinois, Michigan and Ohio - it was found that the states had taken and were continuing to take various heroic measures to help them selves The sums they requested and re- ceived, were to supplement their own efforts, not to substitute for them. No one in Pennsylvania or any other state should be allowed to starve whether it is prevented by means of job with pay or by relief loan from the government, but self-help first keeps up public morale better than outright charity.
