BUS COMPLAINT 7
IGNORED

Patrons of the Hyattsville and
Laurel bus line of the Capital
Transit Company are wondering
what has become of the new
deal" that was promised them un'
der the merger of the old traction
companies.
With more than 40 passengers
crowded in a bus which has q
seating capacity of 81, patrons OF
the line assert that the service IS
inadequate. Complaints have been
filed with Peoples Counsel Rich
mond B. Keech.
eKech referred the matter to
the Public Utilities Commission,
but so far that body has failed to
act. He also has written to Off
cials of the company and they
have acknowledged his letter but
apparently, Keech says, have not
done anything about it.
In writing to the commission,
Keech pointed out that it is a
violation of the commission reg
ulations for bus to be so crowded
as to restrict the vision or free
movements of the driver or to pre-
vent free ingress and egress.
Another letter calling attention
to the matter was dispatched to
the company today by Keech.

|NPROCESS Of
BUILDING
by International News Service

BY International News Service
-Four years will be required to
build American whiskey reserves
to pre-war normal, DR.. James M.
Doran, director of the Distilled
Spirits Institute, said today.
With $50 distilling plants now
operating at capacity of about
1O0,000,000 gallons a year, about
20 new distilleries are under con-
struction.
Within a year it was expected
the distilleries would have an out
put Of about 200,OOO,0O0 gallons a
year so that the process of build
ing up reserve stocks could be
started.
Build Up to Level
Doran said that prior to pro-
hibition, from ESQ, 100000 to 300,-
600, 900 gallons were in the age
ing process at all times. When
stocks are built up to that level,
the country will be assured a
continuous supply of properly
aged liquor at fairly reasonable
prices.
Consumption in the first year
Of repeal will amount to about
100, 900 900 gallons, in Doran's
opinion. The demand for whisky
thereafter will depend upon how
many Of the dry States repeal
their local enforcement laws.
The Federal Alcholo Control
Administration said the average
cost Of the 40 plants under con-
Struction would be from $3OO,OOO

 NEW FIELDS, BELIEVED

NEW YORK, Jan. 21, What would happen in the field of crime if the sale of liquor should be le- galized?
 The report of the Presidents Research Committee on Social Trends, published after three years of work by more than 500 investi- gators, many of them eminent so- ciologiSts, has this to say:
 First. Organized criminals will pursue their professions more wig orouSly in other fields of crime, such as the drug traffic, burglary, racketeering and Kidnapping and, in addition, they will develop new types of organized crime.
 Second They will probably se- cure less profit than they have from the liquor traffic and because of lack of funds will be less suc- cessful in securing immunity from the police and the courts. Conse- quently, the large scale organiza- tionS will tend to break down.

MILLIONS IN ARMS IS OBJECT 0F DRIVE
 BY SOVIET UNIONS

MOSCOW, Jan. 21, - Under the slogan "let each shock worker know how to manage gun" a campaign has been started to en- list the 17,0OO,OOO members of the trades unions in "Osoaviachim, :" the reserves of the Red Army.
 The organization, the name of which is a contraction of Russian words meaning society of the friends of aviation and chemical defense" is a civil branch which sponsors training in all phases of military activity.
 "The anti-war congress in Am sterdam showed the hostile atti- tude of the entire capitalistic world toward the Soviet Union" said the newspaper ''Trud'' Uabor) :.
 These circumstances compel all union members to strengthen the defense of the socialist fatherland. Each militarized city, factory, col lective state farm must remind our enemies of the strength of the dictatorship of the proletariat." Notwithstanding this bristling statement, the Soviet government is less fearful of an armed attack on the U. s. s. R now than for sometime, due to the vast improve ment of relations with Japan and the conclusion of a non-aggression pact with Poland.
