OBSERVERS SEEK
 LOST LEONIDS

Williams Bay, Wit, Nov 16- P)-Astronomers at Yerkes ob- servatory peered into space through powerful telescopes again today, mystified by failure to locate the lost Leonids.
 The Leonids, millions of meteors which form the tail Temples com ct, failed to make their scheduled appearance. Only a few shot to- ward earth and burned themselves out in the atmosphere.
 Dr Otto Struve, director of the observatory, said observations tend ed to confirm the theory the comet may have drawn from it's orbit by perturbation of the planets Jupiter and Uranus.
 In 1893, and again in 1866, the earth passed through the tail of the comet. Thousands of shooting stars" lighted the sky in a bril- liant aerial display. Since then the Leonids have failed to appear in any considerable number as the earth in it swing around the sun passed through what once was the orbit of Temples comet.

GOOD READING FOR PRISONERS SOUGHT
Warden Reed and Wm. C. Cheney Are. Planning Ed=
 uCatiOnal Courses

Hartford, Conn, Nov 16.-UP) that prisoners at Wethersfield shall not have too much idle time on their hands, Warden Charles s. Reed and Will liam c. Cheney. president of the prison board of directors, to-day are to seek funds to expand the prisons educational facilities.
 Reed and Cheney will make their request to the state board of finance and control.
 At present nearly 500 prisoners are employed in the shirt factory, but this work will stop December 1, as it conflicts with the MIRA pro- visions.
 A comparatively few prisoners can be given work on the farm at Enfield, or in other work outside the prison walls. The others. the prison officials believe, must be confined, and it is for these that educational work is planned. Pris- on teachers could be recruited from the inmates, and regular classes in useful arts and trades could be conducted.

NAZIS MAY FREE
 10000 M CAMP


 Berlin, Nov 16- CUP)-Hope that most of the 20,OOO to 30,0Oo men held in concentration camps by the Nazi government might be freed was offered to-day.
 Hans Frank, commissar of jus tice and the NaZi party's chief le- gal adviser, told a meeting of lawyers last night that it now seemed possible for all but "a few irreconciliables' to be set free.
 "The result of Sundays plebis- cite" Frank said. "has enabled us to take a generous attitude toward our political enemies. We believe that Germans. even those who for merly fanatically opposed Adolf Hitler, now have turned from the heresy of Marxism and decadent democracy"

Washington, Nov 16-(UP)- Millions of jobs for the Nnem- ployed were made available to-day when Federal Relief Administra- tor Hopkins notified the states of their quotas under the $400,OOO,O 900 civil works program.
 The program provides 3,OOO,O00 jobs on state projects, apportioned on a combination population-relief basis. Seventy-five per cent of the jobs depend on population in each state, and 25 per cent depend on the number of persons on relief rolls.
 Federal projects will give em- ployment to another 500,OOO men and the remaining 500,000, bring ing the total to 100000 jobs. will be apportioned among the states later.
 Two millions of the jobs will go to those already on relief rolls. The other 2,OO0,0O0 will be given to applicants who register with the federal unemployment offices.
 Hopkins said allocations of civil works funds to states would de- pend on:
 l. Whether the states and other local governments operate III IHe spirit and intent which President Roosevelt set forth when he or ganized the civil works admins tration.
 2. The speed with which they allocate jobs.
 8. Whether men are transferred to jobs from relief rolls.
 Hopkins said he believed the civil works administration had sufficient funds to finance the pro- gram until February 15, or per- haps March l, 1884.
 No money will be advanced either to states or municipalities. They simply will be told to put the men to work. When payrolls or bills for materials come due, state or municipal authorities will present the account to the state civil works administrator. He will give

 Whiskey making is more elab- crate. Corn, rye and barley are used. The grain is ground in a mill, mixed with yeast liquid to form mash and allowed to fer ment. The fermentation forms alcohol which is drawn off by boil ing. The first distillation, is known as high vines and is the liquid from which the whiskey is made. The Thigh wines" are placed in charred kegs and store for two or more years.
 During the storage tannic acid is drawn from the oak slaves to color the whiskey. The chemical reac- ton of the barrel and liquid give the flavor. Many impurities pres ent in the fresh distillation are re- moved.
 After distilling the mash is manufactured into food known as "distillery's grain" and sold to farmers for cattle feeding.

SEEKS Definite PLAN
FOR DISARMAMENT
Hull Says Further Conversations
Needed Before Proposals
Can Be Shaped.
BY the Associated Press.

BY the associated Press.
The United States was said today by
Secretary Hull to be pressing for the
formation of a definite disarmament
plan, but with further conversations
needed before any concrete proposal
could be put forward by this country.
Asked if the United States could be
reported definitely in favor of the
French plan for disarmament after a
trial period, Hull told newspaper men no
definite understanding had yet been
reached, so far as this country was
concerned, toward any one plan.
Referring to conversations In Great
Britain and France by Norman H.
Davis, Americas ambassador without
portfolio, Hull said that from reports
reaching him the conversations ap-
peared to be in preliminary stage.
With proposals and counter proposals
being made by various nations, Hull
said, the disarmament situation ap-
peared to be changing almost hourly.
He added Davis would continue his
discussions with foreign statesmen in
an effort to arrive at concrete PROPOSE
ton to place before the arms parley
in Geneva on Monday.

SESSION LAUNCHES
ANT|-L|QUOR PARTY
Committee of 100 Names
Group to Draw Up Tenta-
tive Platform.

The first step looking toward forma-
tion of new political party to fight
liquor was taken yesterday by the Com
mlttee of 100. an organization COM
prised of most of the prohibition leaders
of the city, at meeting in the Calvary
Baptist Church, Eighth and H streets.
Dr. Everett M. Ellison, chairman of
the group, was authorized to appoint
committee of seven to draw up tenta-
ntive platform for the new political unit.
This platform will be submitted at
mass meeting, october 10, and it will be
decided at that time whether plans for
the new party will be pushed.
l. Attacks Both Parties.
"No consistent dry" DR.. Ellison de-
clared, can affiliate either with the
Democratic or Republican Parties, and
we believe it is these consistent drys
who hold the balance Of political power
in this country. We do not intend to
call the party, if we form it, the 'prohi-
bltion party Instead, we will choose
some other appropriate name and try
to draw in with us small parties whose
PiLild1y puIpOStS are IlOL The ugQC
against alcohol. Rather than taking
liquor out of politics, this repeal move
ment is putting it in politics more than
ever before"
Buy Dry" Move Planned.
Another committee was authorized
to organize buy dry" movement in
Washington. Many persons, Dr. Eli
son said, now refuse to buy from vets
and the work of the committee will be
to coordinate and encourage this
movement.
DR.. Ellison will preside at meeting
of leaders of national prohibition or
ganizationS, which will be held Tues
day night in the Methodist Building,
to lay plans for the fight against the
return of liquor.
Among the prominent prohibition
lists at yesterdays meeting were DR..
Leigh Colvin, former candidate of the
Prohibition party for President; Ed
win B. Dunford, general counsel of the
Anti-Saloon League; Canon William
S. Chase, DR.. Harry E. Woolever, editor

FREIGHT RATE REVISION
RECOMMENDED TOI. C. C..
Examiner Urges Changes Between
Eastern Territory and Middle
Western States.

BY the Associated Press.
Examiner Howard Hosmer today
recommended that the Interstate Com
merce Commission order revision Of
freight rates between Eastern territory
and North Carolina and Southern Vir-
ginia and between Wisconsin and East
ern Minnesota and North Carolina.
The examiner also recommended that
rates between Virginia and North Caro-
lima be left undisturbed.
The proposed report by the examiner,
if upheld by the commission would con-
stitute victory for North Carolina and
Southern Virginia shippers. For years
they have contended rates from what Is
known as official territory to Virginia
points other than a few in the South
ern part of the State were unfair TO
