But Seeks Exact
Virginia Border
BY the Associated Press.

FREDERICKSBURG, Va, April
.8.-When J. A. Brown, hotel and
resort man here, learns just
where Virginia jurisdiction ends
in the Potomac River he will de-
eide what to do about his idea
for a beer barge in the river.
Back In his head are visions OF
a floating beer garden, anchored
in the Potomac a mile of the
Virginia shore, where thirsty Vir-
ginians may 60 to quaff legally
Of 81 per cent beer.
1t all depends on whether the
Virginia jurisdiction extends a
mile into the Potomac, or wheth-
er it's the middle of the river, or
the low water mark, or where it
is, he says.

Thousands of Jobs Created,

NEW YORK, April 8-The golden
dow Of beer swept on tonight, washing
millions of dollars into Government cof-
fers. creating thousands of jobs for tbs
unemployed, and leaving many brew
cry vat empty. -
A survey Of taxing Offices in the 20
States and the District Of Columbia IN
which the new 80 brew was being SOLD
indicated that already more than SlO.-
600 600 has been collected by municipal,
State and Federal taxing bodies.
The editor of Brewery Age estimated
that 1000 600 to 100000 barrels OF
beer had been sold throughout the Ma
ton SO far, with the Federal Govern
naent reaping close to $4,000 during
the two days.
From all sides came reports OF de-
fraand that exceeded either the supply
orsthe ability of brewers to get contain
ers to convey the new beverage to dis
tributors and consumers.
There was scarcely a brewery in the
country keeping up with Its orders.
Some of them were so deep IN the PROD
lem of balancing supply and demand
that telephones went unanswered ana
customers bombarded them by telegraph
in pleading for delivery.
TripIe Shifts at Work.
Double and triple shifts were put to
work. Some plants decided to keep the
wheels Of their industry moving for "a
hours Sunday. ,
"More barrels; more bottles" COM
manded the brewers, as they ran out
OF containers.
Cooperages and glass works called IN
more men and went on double shifts.
In many a city the beer boom was
credited with accelerating business In
Akron, Ohio, reported heavy de-
rnaIld for brewery trucks.
The Chicago Association OF Commerce
said many stores were doing their pest
business since 1929, with steel, electric
power and railroad buying on the up

Beer advertising in newspapers con-
tirued to swell the size Of papers:

more heavily on State public employ

SENATE DEBATES
FARM RELIEF BILL
Strong Opposition Among
G. o. P. Members Faced by
Administration Measure.
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
The administration farm bill was
taken I'D for debate In the Senate to-
day, facing strong opposition among the
Republican minority. which assigned
a committee to 60 through the bill
and report how It should be handled.
The Republicans held conference
on the farm bill this morning ana
decided to obtain recommendations
Monday from Senator Carey OF Wyom-
ing. author OF substitute for the
sweeping price lifting sections OF the
Democratic plan. who was made cnair .
man of the committee. Steiwer OF
Oregon and Patterson Of Missouri COM
pleted its membership.
Land Leasing Suggestion.
The substitute offered by Carey
which the conference discussed, put
on which it did not take STAND, IN
substance is the Hyde land-leasing sug-
gestion advanced in the closing DAYS
of the last Congress.
Considerable opposition to the ad-
ministration bill vesting broad powers
in Secretary Wallace to attempt to
raise farm prices to the 1909-19l4 levels
through marketing agreements, the
domestic allotment plan and other ma
chinery, has developed among the
Republicans.
Despite any Republican attack on the
bill. Democratic leaders were hopeful as
they brought it up for debate that 1t
could be disposed of next week and sent
back to the House for consideration OF
Senate changes.
Delay Is Blocked.
Chairman Fletcher Of the Banking
Committee made an effort to lay aside
the farm bill for discussion Of his bill
to permit the Reconstruction Finance
Corporation to buy insurance COM
panies' stocks and bonds. but this was
blocked by objections from Senator
Robinson. Republican, of Indiana.
Unless there is some real emer-
scncy," Robinson said, "the farm bill Is
more important"
His objection. under Senate rules, au-
tomatically prevented taking up the
Fletcher bill, although Chairman Smith
of the Agriculture Committee had said
he had no objections.
Smith then launched into an explana-
ton Of the farm bill.

wrecked Woodlands of East"
The great National Forest tracts of
the East consist largely of what are
known as wrecked woodlands" They
once had been cleared of timber with
out any regard for the new growth.
They were practically valueless when
taken over by the Government. There
will be work for thousands of men
cutting away underbrush and trees of
undesirable varieties. They will clear
away the so-called 'wolf trees" which
sap the soil and which grow at the
expense of valuable species. They will
clear out the numerous dead chestnuts,
the white ghost trees" of the Blue
Ridge and Massenuttens, which are a
constant fire hazard.
One of the biggest jobs will be that
of road building. The Forest Service
does not propose to construct any high
ways through the mountain woodlands
but wants large number of wagon
roads and horseback trails which will
open them up to the public and at the
same time constitute a communication
artery for quick transportation of fire
fighters. Some will be engaged In
planting trees. Enough nursery stock
is available to plant about 10000 acres.
The whole plan contemplates making
of the Eastern forests something COM

France and Germany, some of which

the same way they plan to get at the

States. This service alone, 1t is esti-

repaying all the cost OF the forestry

Most of the Washington men will be

of Virginia, between the Shenandoah
Valley and the Blue Ridge. In this

and Vesuvius.
Another nearby national forest where
some local men may be assigned Is
the picturesque Monongahela, covering
roc, 900 acres in five counties OF West
Virginia and one Virginia county at the
headquarters of the Potomac and James
Rivers. Here camps will be estab.
lished at Spring Cove, Sepena and
Denbia, w. Va.
Small Force for Blue Ridge.
A small force will be sent into the
proposed Shenandoah National Park
area in the Blue Ridge Mountains, un-
der the direction of the National Park
service. Plans here depend somewhat
on what arrangements can be made
with private owners. In addition, men
are to be assigned, although probably
none from the District, to the great
State forest tracts in Maryland and
Virginia.
In each case the men win be under
the supervision of the Federal or State
agency which has control Of the serv-
ice. The majority will be under the
United States Forest Service. 1t viii
be In no sense a military undertaking.
The skeleton Forest Service forces in
the different forests are selecting the
camp sites with view to available wa
ter supply, transportation and drainage.
All will be tent camps, to be built by
the men themselves as fast as they
arrive. Shelter for the men is one of
the least of the problems confronting
the Forest Service, since such camp
can get into full operation practically
overnight.
A more serious problem is the sort
