Ch0rwOmen
Of Garden

NEW YORK, Nov. 30.-Racket-
eerinQ among scrubwomen in
Madison Square Garden was
charged in an investigation
started by Edwin B. Mcclure,
assistant district attorney, at
the request of Col. John Reed
Fitzpatrick, president of the Gar
den Corporation.
About 10 women, including
forewoman and three accused
of having exacted tribute of 81
to $1.25 weekly from the others
out OF salaries amounting to
only $40 and $12 weekly, were
questioned by the prosecutor.
Although the accused denied
they took any money from the
compliments, all of whom re-
Gently were discharged, in the
capacity as go-betweens for
another, MCGUIRE said sufficient
evidence had been gathered to
establish a case.

SURVEY Of ROAD
STARTS SOON

Work will begin shortly on the
survey of the 6O0-mile Skyland
Park Drive, along the crest of
the peaks from Shenandoah Ma
tional Park to Great Smoky Ma
tional Park. The survey plans
will be submitted to the National
Park service this week by the
Bureau of Public Roads.
Virginia, North Carolina and
Tennessee will share the costs of
the survey. A loan from the
Public Works Administration is
expected for building the road,
which will cost about $4,000, 900.
Ultimately the drive is ex-
pected to be a link in a highway

BEER BOARD s
DOCKET CLEAR

For the first time since the
Prince Georges County Beer Board
was organized last June, the
board yesterday was able to clear
its decks of all pending applica-
tionS for licenses, announces
James S. Heal, secretary.
Applications have fallen off be-
cause residents want to know
what changes will be made in
the beer act and in handling hard
liquors by the present legislature,
he said, although licenses are
good for one year from the date
of issuance.
A total of 18O licenses have
been issued by the board, Of
which 131 are for ION sale" per-
mits and 33 for "off sale" per-
milts. There are Is distributors
and one manufacturer.
Remarkable is the small mum
Der of complaints received con-
cerning beer sales, said Mr.. Heal,
which, in. the opinion of board
members, meant that residents
were practicing temperance in
their drinking.

STIR REICH BY
RESIGNATION

BERLIN, Nov. 80 G.N.S0.
German Protestant church situa-
ton became chaotic today with
the resignation of the entire &C.
cleciaStical ministry" of Reichs-
bishop Ludwig Mueller.
The mass resignation, leaving
the unified" German Evangel
1cal Church without a cabinet,
or ruling body, brought to
climax weeks of dissension cen
tering about the German Chris
tian" NazD movement to install
the extreme Hitler doctrine in
the Protestant churches of Ger
many.
An appeal to the resigning dig
nitaries, highest in the church,
to retain their positions pending
appointment of a new cabinet
was made by DR.. Mueller.
The designations marked a vic
tory for the old-line Protestants
who fought the radical Nazi doc
trine, and were a severe blow to
DR.. Mueller and, indirectly, to
Chancellor Hitler, who selected
DR.. Mueller as Reichsbishop.

The all-star East-West football game
of last week ushered in the 1888 grid
iron season. An impressive array of
stars ggaced the line-ups of both teams
and put on an interesting game OF the
pigskin sport. The game took the lid
off of the football season which will
soon catch and hold the interest of the
public for several months.
That the University of Minnesota
will have a strong football team
this year goes without saying. The
Gophers have a lot Of veteran ma
terial back for duty as well as some
promising newcomers. The team
should be in the thick of the fight
for Big Ten hOnors.
Bernie Bierman, football coach at the
Gopher institution, is ever pessimistic
and predicts strong teams for several
Big Ten schools, but doesn't say much
about his own. Secretly though, Bernie
must be somewhat elated over the
material that he has to work with this
season
Minnesota has strenuous foot
ball schedule this year, playing
eight gaines, seven of them being
against supposedly strong teams.
Starting the season the Gophers
play six straight games, then have

two more tough games.
The Minnesota schedule includes the
following teams, in order: South
Dakota, Indiana, Purdue, Pittsburgh,
Iowa, Northwestern, Open, Michigan,
and Wisconsin Not one of these teams
is "pushover" so the Gophers have
their work cut out for them.
With all this football talk, we
have to mention our own high
school football prospects. Gradu-

squad will be out to build a fine
eleven. Though no championship
is expected, the Ely team this
season will be heard from plenty.
The local diamond ball legaue winds
up it's series for championship honors
this week Games all season have been
well attended and the sectional play
offs and game last Monday attracted
about 1900 fans per game. In spite Of
the fine efforts of the boys, the public
hasn't cooperated to help very much.
Booster tickets for 10 cents were being
sold for the final series, but very few
bought them, preferring to take the
easy way into the game.
This attitude of getting into the
games for nothing Is what has
practically killed baseball in Ely
and what will eventually kill other
sports that are held at the ball
park. A dime is cheap price to
pay for all the diamond ball played
in Ely this year-but more than
one person sneaked into the ball
park Monday rather than "shell

A Call for Action.
(New York World-Telegram.) )


 Quick decision by the States on Prohibition re- peal is essential There has been too much delay already Last the two political parties acted Last November the electorate acted. Now Congress even lame duck sesson-has acted The sooner the State conventions act the better.
 Speed is necessary to demonstrate that politi- cal system is responsive to the public villa much needed demonstration in these days of saggng and derided democracy.
 Speaking from the standpoint of those who op- pose Prohibition speed is necessary to end system whose racketeers sapping business and deprivng the public treasury of large revenues during de- precision when every dollar counts.
 Speed is necessary to restore respect for law Now that Congress has passed repeal, so-caled enforce ment will be more of farce than ever. The grain of moral sanction which sustained the unpopular law is going. To go tapping wires, buying evil dence filling prisons and shooting at suspects in the name of law partially repealed will be as danger as it is silly
 The only way to minimize that chaos is for the States to complete the repeal process in short order
 State conventions composed of very small num- Der of delegates elected by that State at large and the single issue of ratying not ratifying the repeal amendment would to provide the quick est machinery for action.
 At the same time this would be most completely in line with the purpose of the convention method as provided in the Constitution It would be the closest approximation of direct vote of the whole people that is possible under the Constitution.
 Fearing delay by States Representative LaGuardia former Attorney General Palmer and others propose that Congress itself provide the State convention machinery for ratification, Taller than wait for struggling Governors and Legislatures to call the conventions strong legal and constitu- tonal case, in judgment can be made for this theory
 But there are overwhelming practical objections. To mention only one, the Senate. Judiciary Commit tee which would have to pass on the question: con- siders such method unconstitutional
 There is little, if any, immediate chance of getting the Senate to act this question contrary to the views of its constitutional experts, Senators Norris and Borah on the Republican side and Sen ator Thomas J. Welsh, the prospective Attorney General of the Democratic Administration
 Since the object is to avoid delay, a fair and intelligent course is to give the States a chance to call their conventions. If an apprecable number of Governors Legislatures hold up the procession Congress might then step in. But that occasion seems unlikely to arise
