thought I made IL quite clear that an
all-white wedding picture would be in

would be unusually beautiful. I assure

sewed together they were wound into
a ball.
Then Mrs. Garrett of Mortified,
Ohio, sent her method.
She says, have your lap full of car
pet strips as you sit at the sewing
machine. Lap two ends and sew. Lap
the free end of one of these strips
with an end of a new strip. Sew
Continue in an unending strip. Let
the machine sew an inch of stitches
in between. Then when you have quite
a lot sewed, cut the stitches, leaving a
half inch on each side. One can sew
loads of strips in a short time. And
that half inch of sewed thread stitches
keeps the pieces from pulling apart"
Nancy wondered whether this method
was one more triumph for technocracy!

that II Congress were confronted with

the demands due 10 legal restrictions
up to the date Of repeal, and II Congress
considered our industry threatened by
imported products, 1t would pass an
emergency act to prevent such importa-
ton at the expense Of home industry.
In the matter Of distribution Of legal
liquors through means other than the
saloon, the Attorney General draws at
tention to the fact that many methods
are open to Us and mentions in par
ticular the Scandinavian and Canadian
methods. However, he points out that
the method to be adopted becomes q
State rather than national problem.
He says: The policy Of the administra-
ton Is expressed In the Presidents plea
for enactment of such measures by the
several States as viii effectively
prevent the return Of the saloon and its
evils"
'The President does not want the re-
turn Of the saloon; the Democratic party
does not want the return Of the saloon:
I do not want It; you do not want It.
am sure the great majority Of citizens
do not want its return. We would be
confronted with q different situation in
that respect after repeal than We knew
before prohibition. There Il . changed
national sentiment and competitive di-
versions. There Is no likelihood Of the

Just what win happen to the present
Bureau Of Prohibition after repeal is a1
interesting question. WIN the executive
order Of June ., outlining plans for con-
sohdation Of executive bureaus and gov
ernmental departments, when put into
effect, mark the virtual dissolution Of
the Bureau Of Prohibition"
"As such" answers the Attorney Gen.
e9al, but under different departments It
Win continue to function, especially In
the protection Of dry States"
That executive order, presented to q
weary Congress shortly before midnight
. day cr two before adjournmeot, Is
dated June ., 1883. It provided that the
recommended consultations should 90
into effect "o0 calendar days after trans
mission" That means that August ..
1888, viii oAncially sound the death knell
Of the old Bureau Of Prohibition which
lived through 30 many sad and stormy
days.
Senator Borah, explaining the execu-
tive order as it referred to the Bureau
Of Prohibition, from the floor Of the Sen
ate ON June 10, 1888, gave this clear pic
ture Of the change about to be Effected:
ITO the extent that the Bureau Of
Prohibition deals with permits for the
manufacture and sale Of alcohol, 1t du-
plicates work now done by the Bureau

of Internal Revenue. The latter bureau
being . revenue collecting agency, IS the
proper agency to administer the issuance
and cancellation Of permits which are
closely tied up with the collection Of
revenue, and therefore this function is
centralized in Internal Revenue.
with few minor exceptions, the re-
naming functions Of the Bureau Of Pro-
hibition involve the investigation Of In
fractions Of the prohibition law. No
organizational reason Is perceived Tor
q special bureau for the investigation Of
. particular kind of crime. The Bureau
of Investigation of the Department Of
Justice Is charged with the general in
vestigation Of crimes against Federal
laws and the apprehension of criminals,
and 1t Is believed that the Federal laws
may be better enforced If the investiga-
tory personnel Is consolidated in single
organization"
co swiftly, however, Is history being
made In washington that the final
paragraph Of Senator Borah's explana-
tion even now requires revision to In
terpret the after-repeal situation. Under
repeal, the aforementioned duties take
on yet another character, new duties be-
come apparent. These must be taken
care Of.
The Bureau Of Prohibition, shorn Of
its archaic title, win nevertheless be con-
fronted With many new and intricate
problems With the advent Of repeal.
Aside from The collection Of revenues
which function vim come under the
Treasury-and the protection of honest
brewers and manufacturers against gang
rule-Which win come under the Depart
ment Of Justice-there win be duties Of q
prohibitory and protective nature to be
performed.
This unit under whatever name It
operates, win consist Of about 1900 men,
according to the Attorney General, whose
duty 1t win be to protect dry States and
prevent the importation Of Illicit liquors.
I'VE operated last year." Attorney Gen.
eral Cummings stated, under an ap-
propriation af about ten million dollars.
This has been cut to about four and one
half million. This large saving has been
effected by the decreased cost In opera
tion, the release Of 1900 employees, fewer
violations, and diminution In the num-
Der Of Federal prisoners to be housed,
clothed and fed at public expense"
These changes and economies have
been brought about In the few short
months since the Inauguration Of the
new deal In liquor control under Maj.
Dalrymple.

the abolition Of that word more than
Maj. Dalrymple himself, who, since his
induction into ONCE, March 81, 1888, has
been following an original and effective
policy which substitutes the word con-
troll" for prohibition" in all dealings Of
his bureau. It is this same policy Of
control" which will no doubt mark his
manner Of dealing with the protection
of dry States under repeal. It is policy
that has marked Maj. Dalrymple's long
and colorful career in the eradication OF
national evils, first as director of mar
cotics in the Philippines, where he dried
up the source Of supply; then as director
of prohibition forces in the five States
bordering Michigan in the early days Of
prohibition and later IS director Of pro-
hibition, appointee Of Attorney General
Homer s. Cummings, under the new deal.
'The whole theory Of prohibition" de-
elares Maj Dalrymple, 'is based on an
unsound psychological tenet-Thou
Shalt Not!' From the Garden of Eden to
today that tenet has never accom-
plished anything but the destruction Of
its own purpose. The whole structure Of
national harmony depends upon proper
control. You can't run . household On
the prohibition basis and you can't run
4 nation on It, either"
Throughout his directorship Maj.
Dalrymple has strictly adhered to this
policy and, In keeping with the expressed
intention Of the administration, intro
duced In Washington q hberalized policy
that not only cut down expense but
actually brought about . diminution in

nues, in two months time, by more than

Senator Hastings's Efforts
Led To Revision of I'm
pOrtant Act
WAS SIGNED BY HOOVER

In the more than four years of
his service in the Senate, Senator
Daniel o. Hastings, of Delaware.
has just recorded his most signal
achievement in the sweeping revi-
sion of the national bankruptcy act
which Congress passed and was
signed the last day of Congress by
President Hoover. While others
had an important part in this
legislation, it is freely con
ceded that to the Delaware Sen
ator belongs the lions share of
credit. AS told in the press dis
patches, the purpose of the amend
ment is to prevent costly and dis
astrous receiverships by making it
possible for creditors and debtors
to negotiate rearrangement of
debts mutually agreeable to a ma
jority of the interests involved,
subject to court approval. Indi-
viduals, firms, and railroads, but
not other corporations, are empow-
cred to effect reorganization. In
the case Of the railroads the legis-
lation is held of vast Importance
Senator Hastings introduced his
bill almost exactly year ago, as
Republican administration mea-
sure. AS the directing head of a
joint committee of Senate and
House he conducted hearing in May
and June Of last year, and when
the subject was revived at this ses-
sion Of Congress he was the Sen
ate authority on the bill. Senator
Hastings had the hearty backing of
President Hoover, who in two mes
sages urged the legislation and de-
clared that Congress should act
without delay.

proceedings in Ipoh. Among lit

implying that his majesty was

Sker.
His majesty spun about on his
