Only Exception Is Where Army
Prices, Plus Transportation
Costs, Are Lower.

By the Associated Press.
Camp commanders Of the Civilian Con-
servation Corps yesterday were ordered
to purchase subsistence supplies from
local merchants, except in cases where
the cost would be greater than the ex-
pense Of obtaining the supplies from
the nearest Army post and transporting
them to the camps.
Heretofore camp commanders have
purchased perishable supplies from
local merchants, but have obtained all
non-perishable supplies from Army
posts.
Representative Robertson, Democrat,
Of Virginia. who appealed to the War
Department in behalf Of the merchants,

portation Of supplies from Army posts
to the camps brought the total cost

claring Pope Plus XII is more
radical than the NRA in his
attitude toward industrialism, the
Rt. Rev. Msgr. John A. Ryan. OF
Catholic University, today had
endorsed the Rev. Charles E.
Coughlin as a very useful cit
izen."
The noted priest, who came to
Detroit to address the Catholic
conference on industrial problems,
declared he considers the new
deal truly revolutionary" He
added:
"But it does not go as far as
would the OcCupatiOnal group
organization recommended by
the Pope In his late encyclical
'QuadrigeSimO AnnO.'"
Father Coughlin, Monsignor
Ryan said:
SIS on the side IF the angels
in the issue between those who
oppose social justice and those
who struggle for it."
He added:
II do not agree with every.
thing he says, but am with him
on the main question that con-
fronts us now, the effort to get
the nation out of the depression.
Father COughlin is working
along that line and for that
reason is a very useful citizen.
Let him make all the mistakes
he likes, he is at least stirring
up the popular mind and some"
body has tC do that"
Father Ryan explained that the
Pope would make labor partici-
patton in the drawing up and ad'

NO RUSH TO CELEBRATE
Due to confusion as to the
time Maryland bars and liquor
stores will be opened today there
was no great rush Of Capital citi-
zens to the Free State to join
in the celebration attendant upon
the death of prohibition.
The Montgomery county com
missioners went into session to,
day to rush through legislation
to enable the diSpensary system
in the county to get into opera
ton as soon as possible. perhaps
late today.
No liquor will be sold before to-
morrow noon in Prince Georges
county, as the liquor license board
will not meet until tomorrow morn
ing to issue licenses.
Licenses Being Printed
The licenses are being printed
now and will be ready for lssu-

At bonded warehouses in Baltl'
more trucks were loaded and
ready to make the dash out as
soon as the dry laws is officially
dead, making it legal once more

Prices of legal liquor are con-
Siderably higher than those
quoted by local bootleggers. For
example. gin may be purchased
here for rs cents a pint, while
the legal price list in Maryland

With the end of the long dry
spell today, there was a happy
smile on the face of Julius Reiners
manager of the National Press
Club.
Why? Because Julius probably
knows more of the fine art of mix.
ing drinks than any man in the
District if not the entire country,
and it has hurt him for all these
years to see people drinking moth
ing but highballS Of straight
liquor.
Drink Mixing an Art
For, opines Julius, who is re-
membered as having charge Of
the bar in the old club, the mix
ing - drinks is a fine art, and
properly mixed should delight
the palate rather rather than
merely give a kick.
Quoth Julius:
"NOw that we have returned
to nOrmalcy, now that the era
of bathtub gin and corn whisky
Is ended, hope to see the
nation again learn the delights
of properly compounded drinks"
And then Julius was induced to
give up some of his favorite
recipes now that the "makings"
are to be available. if not in the
District, at least In nearby Mary
land. Here are some of his
choice ones:
Metropolitan Cocktail
One-half pony brandy. one
pony Vermouth. three dashes bit

AUTHORITY
Johnson Is Determined TO Fix
Prices for Cleaners, Legal
Adviser Indicates
BY international News Service


Assured it has the right to rPgu.
late interstate as we'll as interstate
commerce, the NRA today stood
firm in it's determination to fix
prices in the cleaning and dyeing
trade, even if firms do not do busi-
ness outside the State in which
they are located.
After receiving legal advice from
Donald R. Richberg, chief counsel
of the NRA. Recovery Admins
traitor Hugh S. Johnson sum-
moned the owners of 81 additional
cleaning and dyeing firms to ap.
pear here Monday to explain why
they have refused to raise prices
up to the minimum set recently
under the code for the trade.
Cites Court Decisions
Richberg cited many Supreme
Court decisions upholding the
power of the Federal Government
to regulate strictly intraState COM
merce for the protection of inter.
state commerce.
He termed the ruling Of a Fed
eral judge in Tampa, Fla, as a
mere casual opinion" on the sub
ject. The judge on Saturday dis
missed the application for an in.
junction against cut-rate cleaner
and dyer sought by another in
dividual cleaner and dyer. Rich.
berg said:
"The judge expressly stated
he did not hold the MIRA In he
constitutional. but. that, in his
opinion. If the MIRA authorized
a regulation of a local pressing
club there was no authority In
the Constitution for such a law,
because, he stated. it was con-
ceded by counsel for the COM
pIainants that neither the COM
pIainantS nor the defendants
were engaged in interstate COM
merCe.
CASE INADEQUATE
at is evident that neither the
facts nor the law were ade-
quateIy presented to the court
in this preliminary hearing in
q litigation between two private
parties"
Richberg then quoted the
United States Supreme Court in
the case of the Wisconsin Rail.
road Commission VS.. the c. B. and
@. Railroad Co., as follows:
Commerce is a unit and does
not regard State lines and while
under the constitution inter.
state and intrastate commerce
are ordinarily subject to regu-
latiOn by different sOverignties,
yet when they are so mingled
together that the supreme au.
thOrity, the nation. cannot ex.
erciSe effective control over the
interstate commerce without in
cidental regulation of intra-
state commerce, such incidental
regulation is not an invasion
of State authority or . VIC
latiOn of the prOviSO."

predominant opinion in Washing

Out of the numerous expert
ments now to be conducted, rang
ing from South Carolina's quart
a-month law to Louisiana's open
bars, may develop q successful
plan for liquor control that event
ually may be adopted almost uni
versally in the United States.
Such, at any rate. is the hope
of those who are endeavoring to
pierce the future.
In the 20-odd States that will
have re-legalized the drinking of
liquor by the end of the week,
there is no uniformity of control
legislation.
Saloon Becomes Tavern
Some of the States have drawn
sharp line between hard liquors
like whisky and gin and mild
drinks like beer and wines.
Some of the States have per-
mitted the return of the open bar,
disguised under the new,found
but really colonial term tavern" ."
Others confine the sale of hard
liquor to the original package,
for consumption off the premises

to have to carry with him liquor

knowing when and under what
conditions he may quench his
thirst in the various States
through which he passes.
Generally speaking, however, 1t
will be possible to obtain liquor
by the drink in bonafide hotels
and restaurants in those States
which are wet.
High prices and lack of quality

A "citizens election" is sched-

Democratic candidate for the
congressional post left vacant by
the death six months ago of
Bolivar e. Kemp, nominated by
the district executive committee
eight days before the election
was scheduled and without q
primary having been held.
Highway police were congre-
eating in large numbers at Baton
Rouge and many others were
being sent out into parishes of
the district.
This was taken to mean that,
in spite of Governor Aliens an
nouncement that troops would
not be called out, protection
would be given voters and elec-
ton officials by means Of armed
highway police.

of time necessary to set up the

Prince Georges county, the
other Maryland county which
borders Washington, decided to
permit hotels. clubs, and restau-

sell liquor and wines, and to al
low off sale licenses at a $3.50
fee.
AS the State bill passed the
Senate as the last step in gain
ing legislative approval last
night. only one vote was cast
against it. That was by Senator
j. Allan Coad CD of St.
Mary's, who explained his oppo-
sition was not to legalizing
liquor, but because of his be-
lief that the $1.10-a-gallon State
excise tax is too heavy.
