Six Known To Be
 Killed In Wreck
(Continued from Page 1)

Mexico mountains. 150 miles east of Albuquerque.
 A four-inch rain fell in this re- zion last night. Streams rushed out of their banks.
 One report said seven of the twelve coaches of the train had fallen into the water.
 By 9:30 a. m., 45 survivors of the wreck had been brought into Tucumcari. Many were only slight ly injured and after receiving first aid treatment were put to bed in hotels, hospitals or private homes. T. F. Wheelock, mail clerk, es- caped without serious injuries. but was unable to give details of the wreck.
 The swollen Perta Crock had carried out the east approach to the bridge and tore up track for a distance of three rails.
 The engine plunged into the creek bottom, and on top of 1t piled seven other cars including the baggage, mail car, day coach, tourist pullman, club car and two standard pullmans. Traffic over the Rock Island lines between here and Dalhart was suspended due to the torren- tial rains which may have endan- gered other trestles. The Rock 1s- land office at Dalhart ordered a wrecking train to the scene of the l crash.

 Distillers could begin to manu- facture hard liquor at once, al- though the federal bottled-in- bond law requires that whiskey be aged four years.
 SHORTAGE IS FORESEEN
 The aging requirement would assue a long hiatus of shortage insofar as American whiskey is concerned. There are less than 100000 gallons of old liquor in bonded warehouses, much of which will be consumed under the liberalized medicinal prescription law before the end of the year. About 10,000,000 gallons are be- ing made or aged.
 Much of that whiskey would be stretched by blending it with new CT spirits, but prohibition con- sumption ran around 130,OO0,O00 gallons year.
 Some distilleries are now oper- ating under permits to fill medi- cinal needs" Demand for medi- cinal whiskey has trebled and quadrupled since the new pre- scriptiOn law was passed, so they

IF THERE'S REPEAL, THEN WHAT---?1
RUM WOULD FLOW AT ONCE IN HALF THE NATION

The Volstead Act would auto matically go out the window and the only federal regulatory laws for liquor remaining would be those designed to protect dry states-as specifically provided in the repeal amendment. The lat ter include Webb-Kenyon law forbidding shipments into any state in violation of that states laws, the Wilson act which puts original packages under state jur- isdiction and the Reed amendment prohibiting the sending of liquor advertising matter into states which forbid 1t.
 Bootleggers and other prohibi. ton law violators would stay im- prisoned unless and until Presi- dent Roosevelt-or the state gov- ernor in cases of state law convic- tions - decides to pardon them. Some of the state governors al- ready have taken this course and it is rumored that Roosevelt has considered a manifesto releasing federal prohibition prisoners.
 CONTROL PLANS VARIED Several states have established i liquor commissions or control boards to deal with the problem of regulation. Some probably would adopt variations of the Canadian and Swedish systems. No uniform ity is in sight and it isn't certain that repeal wouldn't bring an un- restrained liquor traffic into some areas while new state laws are be- ing awaited.
 The following states now have no prohibition laws of their own, according to unofficial information compiled here:
 Arizona, California, Colorado, Delaware. Illinois, Indiana, ,Louis- jana, Maryland, Massachusetts, Montana, Nevada, New Hampshire, New Jersey, New York, Oregon, Rhode Island, Wisconsin and Washington.
 The states whose prohibition laws automatically terminate with the end of federal prohibit tion are Connecticut, Minnesota, and Pennsylvania.
 Several others have arranged for referenda on their state laws.

 Gold shares have been rising ever since Great Britain went off the gold standard two years ago. But the real gold rush began last week and when the dollar and pound sterling began to sag in relation to the continental gold currencies. The price of gold went to 129 shil- lings fourpence ($29.35) fine ounce, the highest since last De- cember and comparing to the all- time high price of 130 shillings fourpence reached last November.
 Gold rose again today to 129 shillings fourpence halfpenny a fine ounce ($29.36S at $4.54 a pound), the years high and an overnight increase of eightpence (15.13 cents).

 The locomotive of the wrecked train fell into the soft bank on the east side of the creek and buried itself in the mud and water. One of the baggage cars tilted at an angle of 45 degrees after it fell into the creek.
 Randall, the fireman, was be- lieved buried beneath the locomo- tive or washed downstream in the flood waters.

 Survivors said they saw bodies in the water, lending strength to the reports that more than six had perished.
 The chair car was almost com pletely submerged. The stream washed over a part of the tourist sleeper and Tapped at its sides. Au- to and ambulances brought sur vivors here. Hotels were converted into hospitals.
 Heavy rains of the last few days turned the usually dry steam into flood current which washed around the piers of the east approach to the bridge and gradually weakened them. The bridge was of steel construction, 210 feet long, and 60 feet high at it's highest point, rail officials said.

Motor Vehicle Comnlis- sioner ConnOr Is Trying to Start Up Some Such Plan Here

Hartford. Conn.,, Aug. 29-(UP) Every licensed automobile driv- CT in Connecticut will become Q highway patrolman under plan suggested by Michael A. Connor, motor vehicle commissioner, who hopes thereby to :. make highways safer and reduce the death toll of accidents. Highway mishaps al- ready have taken more than 230 lives this year and Connor fears the figure will reach 500 before the end of the year unless there is immediately improvement. He is- sued his statement in connection with the designation by Governor Cross of September as '"street and highway safety month";"
 Connor said the organization would be called the citizens volun- teer motor patrol. Members will be asked to note licenses of careless, lawbreaking drivers and inform the vehicles department. Action will be taekn on these reports, and those named will be called on and impressed with the hazards they are creating for themselves and others by their recklessness on the highways, Connor said.

 twill the MIRA succeed? Per haps there are some who would stand aside and wait to see whether or not it will succeed. If all of us do that 1t certainly will not suc- ceed. No plan would. The suc- cess of anything does not depend so much on the plan but on the support given to the plan. Tho MIRA will succeed if we give it loyal support. If we are solidly back of it. Doubtless there are some who feel that they can do nothing or that the little they can do will not amount to anything. l wish it could be impressed on every individual that he can do something of great value.
 "There are some who will do nothing. There are some who will do nothing but criticize. They are the worst. A man who does noth- ing, does no great harm. The man who dose nothing but criticize does great deal of harm. No man who does not work should criti- cize. May we be spared the do nothing criticizer."
 Statement by Father O'Shca
 Rev Francis M. O'Shea, acting pastor of the church of the Im- maculate Conception, made the fol- lowing statement:
 "The church, through the en- cyclicals of different Popes has all ways championed the cause of la bor. Consequently, she welcomes any legislation. such as the Ma tion Recovery Act, which tends to relieve the condition of the work ing class. In this great drive. now being conducted for the betterment of humanity, good start has been made. Much more however re- mains to be done. To be Q suc- cess the MIRA drive must have the wholehearted, sincere and loyal support of every employer, work CT and consumer.
 "Realizing that 1t is our duty to cooperate with the president In his efforts to eliminate unemployment and to remedy economic and social ills, we should all work and pray for the ultimate success of this drive. We feel that all our people. mindful of the hardships and suf-. ferings of the past four years, will be willing to do anything in their power to hasten the end of the de- jpression and thereby secure for themselves contentment of mind and heart and more stable living |conditions.
 The local recovery board has been officially notified by the office of the national administrator that the authority to punish violators ofthe presidents agreement, has not been delegated to any local agency. It is expected of local ! boards that on the receipt of any evidence indicating a violation. of the pledge that the matter will be referred to Washington for de- cision. The power to take the Blue Eagle away from any fndi' vidual or firm will not be given to subordinate boards.

DELAWARE'S SURPLUS

How gratifying it is, in
these days of unbalanced
State and city governments,
to read in the report Of State
Auditor J. Henry Hazel that
Delaware has closed the fiscal
ance of approximately ST.
100000.
Governor C. Douglass Buck,
in particular, must be greatly
pleased with this most salts
factory showing, for it is a
concrete justification Of his
economy program inaugural
ed about year ago when he
cut the salaries of various
State employees and reduced
expenditures in all depart
ments. Also it justifies his
action, just after the adjourn
ment Of the recent session Of
the Legislature, when ne We
toed various appropriations
which he deemed not abso-
lutely necessary, for it is
largely due to that action that
our State Treasury at present
shows million dollar balance
rather than a deficit.
How much better it is to ef-
feet this saving in the manner
which Governor Buck has
chosen rather than to add tC
the burden Of Delaware tax
payers by increasing the al
ready high tax rates. There
can be little doubt that haC
not our Governor placed his
economy program into effect
a year ago, thereby cutting
down State expenditures to
considerable extent, and haC
he not vetoed all those appro
priations passed by the Gen
eral Assembly that he did no
consider absolutely necessary
we would now not only have
a large deficit instead Of a bal
ance, but we would be facet

with the alternative of adding
to the already heavy burden
of taxation or seeing that
deficit increase to alarming
proportions.

ticularly taxpayers, should be
