Coaxing the Rain to Fall.

Nearly all the uncivilized tribes OF the
world have some formula by which It
is hoped to coax the rain from the skies
in times of drought. In portions OF
Australia the natives employ definite
ritual of drought antics i'll
order to induce showers of rain. The
men gather round small pond and be-
have like frogs, ducks. water animals
and aquatic birds. They quack and
croak like the animals initiated. Then
they march around a group of women
nearby and douse them with water and
pebbles. The women raise branches
and bark of trees over their heads, pre-
tending that they are attempting to
keep of the rain which is thus de-
voutly hoped for The idea is that if
the performers act as though the de-
sired rain IS falling it will come in due
time.

BEER BILL CALLED
TEMPERANCE STEP
Minority Report to Senate
Says Prohibition Tends to
Increase Drunkenness.
BY the Associated Press.

5y the Associated FreSS,
A minority of the Senate Manufac-
tureb' Committee reported to the Sen
ate today that "The effect of prohibi-
ton seems to have been the driving Of
thesypeople to hard liquor with a re-
sultzsnt increase in drunkenness deaths
from alcoholism and general law
lessless -
Tie statement was made in a mi
nority report favoring bill to permit
manufacture of per cent beer. A
majerity of the committee voted against
the tlbill, but permitted it to come to
the Senate with an unfavorable report.
The minority report, presented by
Senator Metcan, Republican, of Rhode
Island, said. lit is evident that pro-
hibition has not only failed to decrease
drunkenness, but that arrests for in
toxication have been steadily increas-
ing until they have reached the highest
in American history"
He said testimony given before a sub
committee which he headed led to the
conclusion that enactment Of the beer
bill would promote temperance and
decfeaSe crime"
The minority, which favored the beer
BILL, comprised Senators Metcalf. Bar

Bulkley, Democrat, OF Ohio, and La
Follette, Republican, of Wisconsin,

mittee

bill ds expected to be made today or to-

The majority comprises Senators Hat
fed McNary, Republican, oregon;
Goldsborough, Republican, Maryland;
Cutting, Republican, New Mexico;
Smith, Democrat, South Carolina;
Sheppard, Democrat, Texas, and Costi-
gam Democrat, Colorado.
The minority leport said "the hear
ings brought forth irrefutable evidence
that drinking among minors has in
creased tremendously.
THE wholesale crime and drunken
ness which have grown out of the
eighteenth amendment and Volstead act
have brought terrible havoc in the
