MEDICINAL LIQUOR
RULES TO Be EASED
Changes Practically Ready
for Signature of Cum
mings and Woodin.

New regulations allowing much more
latitude to physicians in prescribing
medicinal liquor have been completed
and are expected to be issued soon, it
was learned yesterday.
The regulations, based on the new
law liberalizing the amount of medici-
nal liquor which doctors may use in
treatment Of the sick, are virtually
ready for the signatures Of Attorney
General Cummings and Secretary of
the Treasury Woodin.
While details of the regulations still
remain secret, 1t is understood they are
much more LIBERAL than the regula-
tions still in effect. Instead of limiting
the doctor and his prescription to a
pint in 10 days to a patient, the new
regulations are understood to give more
freedom for the physician to exercise
his own judgment.
Under the new act, which was passed
upon the inSistence of the medical
profession, quantity and frequency OF
prescription liquor Is left to the forth
coming regulations.
Advice of the medical profession was
understood to have been sought In pre-
pairing the new regulations.
Besides the Secretary Of the Treas
ury and the Attorney General, they
will also carry the signatures Of Com
missioner DOran of the Bureau Of In

HOUSE TO TAKE UP
!. AGE CUT TUESDAY
Consideration of Independent
Offices Bill Completed
by Subcommittee.

Subcommittee consideration Of the
1ndependent Offices appropriation bill
has been completed. 1t will be con-
xdered by the full committee Tuesday
morning and reported to the House at
noon. Under unanimous consent, gen.
eral debate on the bill may start Tues
day afternoon.
Chairman Buchanan of the subcom-
uittee will request a special rule for
the legislative riders which are an es-
Bential feature of the Presidents econ
omy and reorganization program.
As drafted, the bill carries essentially
the same provisions regarding retire.
ment of Government employees after 80
years Of service as were explained in
The Star yesterday. While the Ian
guage of the legislative authority is not
yet available, it gives the President dis
cretionary power to retire Government
employees after 80 years of service dur
ing a two-year period in order that he
may effect a substantial reduction in
the force Of Government employees.
1t provides that such retired work.
ers shall receive annuitieS averaging
approximately $1,000, from which will
be deducted the 312 per cent contribu
ton of Government employees toward
the retirement fund This deduction
Is to cease when the retired workers
reach the retirement age. 1t also pro-
vides for Unemployment Of such retired
veteran workers when the Government
needs their services.
An important other change in the
legislative provisions Is in the authority
given the President to cancel contracts.
The Budget Bureau recommendation
was blanket authority to the Presi-
dent to cancel any Government con-
tract. AS changed by the committee
this authority is limited only to trans
portation contracts, such as ocean, air
and railway mail.

DR.. bALLOU ASKED
FUND CHANGE PLAN
Control of School Money Is
Given Commissioners
in Senate Bill.

Authorization of the transfer Of funds
from one item to another within the
public school appropriations and the
placing OF the transfers under juris-
diction Of an agency other than the
schools was recommended by DR..
Frank w. Ballou, superintendent CT
schools, during the Senate hearings on
the 1894 appropriations bill, 1t was re-
vealed In the published report Of the
hearings released yesterday.
DR.. Ballou had outlined to the sub
committee Of the Senate Appropriations
Committee the distress which would
confront the public schools If they
were obliged to operate next year un-
der the bill as passed by the House. The
total reduction in the sum Of the ap-
preparation in itself. he pointed out,
would force dangerous pairing Of edu-
cational opportunities for Washington
school children, and as the reduced
amount was specifically apportioncd
among the various items, the school
system would be further handicapped.
Thomas Asked Suggestion.
Senator Thomas of Oklahoma inter-
rupted DR.. Ballous statement to inquire
whether he could suggest amendments
to the bill which would enable the
school people to adjust their finances
by transferring items from one point to
another and enable better operation Of

DRAINAGE IN KENT co. HAS
GOOD RESULTS FOR 9 YEARS
(Communicated)

To Editor Milford Chronicle,
Milford, Delaware.
Dear Sir
The last session of the Legislature
appropriated $4,000 annually for
two years to be used to improve
drainage conditions in Kent county.
This has been spent under supervi-
sion of the State Highway Depart
ment and the effects of well di-
rected program are now apparent to
many farmers. There is now a bill
before the present Legislature pro-
viding funds to continue this work.
These expenditures tend to build
and stabilize the nations major in
dustry in this state-farming This
would be very desirable develop
ment, one worthy of the support of
every citizen of the state.
There is now a demand to curtail
production and some people have
the misconceived notion that this
development is contrary to that de-
mand. 1t is not. In fact it is the
only method by which that demand
may ever be satisfied. These poorly
drained areas can he classed as in
and-out lands. The farmers plant
blindly on improperly prepared fields
not know what yield the weather
may bring. With series of favor
able years they are certain to cause
a large over production. We must
improve the lands and stabilize
yields before we can predict and
control production.
Drainage is crop insurance; val
ued so highly by the farmers that
they have spent years of labor and
large sums of money to obtain ii.
However, this is purely an engi-
neering problem and they have now
learned that it cannot be obtained
their efforts alone.
We are now engaged in an enor-
nous relief program. spending two
million dollars. Many farmers are
on the list of needy. A drainage
program well carried out would re-
move these names from the list. AT
this time, when our state revenues
