it is inconsistent to include any
provision relating to minors.
Objection also was made in the
House to the provision which
would legalize 3.O5 wine. Oppo-
nentS insist that good wine can
not be made with this percentage
of alcohol and that the people
would be miSled.
Public to Lose
Speaker Rainey said a delega-
ton of brewers called upon him
complaining of the Senate bill.
He said:
"SOme of the brewers said
that if the bill authorizes 80
the public will get about sos,
while if the bill provides for
3.O5, the public will get . beer
not over 3 per cent. They said
they would always make beer
under the permitted percentage.
They won't take chances of viO-
lating the law"
Rainey said the Borah amend
ment prohibiting sale to persons
under 16 is contrary to the the
ory of the bill and difficult Of en-
forcement but won't do any
harm"
Speaking Of the wine amend
ment, he said:
"It amounts to nothing, be-
cause you can't make S.O5
Wine."
$5 q Barrel Tax
The bill as it passed the Senate
would legalize beer, ale, porter,
wine, similar fermented malt OF
vinous liquor, or fruit juices, CON
tanning not more than sos per
cent Of alcohol by weight. This
percentage would equal 3.8 by
volume.
"A federal sales tax Of IS per
barrel of 81 gallons would bring
in the federal revenue, along with

brewery producing fermented
beverages. No licenses would be
issued in dry States.
The bill would allow the manu-
facture of malt beverages in ex-
cess Of 3.05 per cent, but only
if the alcoholic content were re-
duced to the legalized limit prior
to sale. The same permission
would be given producers of wine
or fruit juices.
Advertising Permitted
Dry States would be protected
by a special provision, prohibiting
transportation of the legalized
beverages into their territory. A
special section would impose q
fine of $1,000 or six months
imprisonment on violators of the
dry State protective clause.
The modification of the Vol
stead Act was extended specific
ally to Hawaii, Porto Rico and
Alaska.

To Bare Plan to Reorganize;
D. C. Banking Normal"

Washington banks licensed to
reopen after the bank holiday are
back on a practically normal"
operating basis, local bankers de-
clared today as the rush Of de-
positors that followed the reopen
ing Of 20 local banks on Tuesday
fen away to the usual volume OF
business.
Clearing House records showed
that checks totalling $1,716,728.31
were cleared yesterday. This
figure, 1t was said, is about the
normal days clearing.
Wednesday $2,888,365.93 was
cleared, but this large sum was
due to the Government pay day
and to some of the outstanding
checks from the holiday period
still being cleared, it was said.
DepOSitors to Meet
Plans for reorganization and
reopening of the Commercial Ma
tional Bank, the only institution
in the District placed in the
hands Of a receiver IS a result
of the recent banking crisis, will
be discussed at a meeting Of
depositors and stockholders to be
held at the Mayflower Hotel to-
morrow night.
Col. Wade H. Cooper, president
of the bank, who called the meet
ing, declared he would hold a
series of such gatherings if neceS-
sary in order that the 10000 de-
poSitorS may learn "the true
facts" leading up to the closing Of
the institution February %.
A "safe and sure" plan for
speedy recovery of the bank has
been developed by Colonel Cooper,
he said, and he expects to reveal
this at the meeting tomorrow
night.
Merger Plans Wait
Plans for reorganization and
possible consolidation of the 13
Washington banks which were not
licensed to reopen at the end OF
the Presidents national bank holi'
day were still in allegiance today.
Officials of the banks are ex-
pected to meet in conference
shortly to discuss the possibility
OF receiving Federal aid in event
O plan of consolidation may be
worked out.
Meanwhile conservatorS Of the
banks are working over the assets
Of the institutions, preparatory to
making a report to the Comp
troller Of the Currency as to their
strength and the possibility Of re
organization for the protection OF
depoSitors and stockholders.
One ReOpening Denied
Reports that one of the 10 saw
tngS banks which failed to receive
. license would open tomorrow
was denied at the office Of the
Comptroller of the Treasury and
by the conservator handling the
affairs Of the bank.
The conServator pointed out
that he has been at work for only
two days on the banks affairs,
and said it would probably require
several weeks before his report on
the assets would be completed and
sent to the Treasury Department,
which will then act on the ques-
ton Of issuing a license.

Two Organizations
Urge Reelection
Of VIM. A. Andersen
GROUP SEEKS ANDERSON'S
REELECTION

A group of Minneapolis voters led
by Fannie M. Shanks, club woman,
w. M. Smith, civic leader, Joseph
Jennings and C. E. Rucker, officers
of the Northside Civic and Political
League, are working hard for the re-
election of Mayor VIM. A. Anderson.
From now until the close of the cam
paign this group plans an intensive
drive for Mayor Anderson's reelec-
ton. In a statement issued and
signed by the above persons they
asserted:
Citizens of Minneapolis do well to
show the utmost concern in the COM
ing mayoralty election.
Granted that the most spectacular
exhibition of the Mayors power is
in his control of the police power,
this of itself is of vital Importance
to the people of the city. 1t is es-
pecially important to minority
group too small to WELD an influence
that can protect its members from
injustice and harsh and unfair APP
plication of police authority.
Administrations have been known,
even in our city, where members of
minority group have been made to
suffer from such power exercised by
those rejecting the attitude of the
department head-that is-the May
or himself.
In addition to this, however, there
are many other functions in which
the Mayor can and must take con-
trolling interest. These involve the
economic as we'll as the moral well
fare of the community and call for
the highest type of courage-effi-
cheney and dependable leadership.
In the exercise of the veto power
through which the Mayor can i'm
pose his convictions upon the council
he must use all of these qualifications.
Because we believe that the pres
ent incumbent-Wm. A. Anderson
has in the past two years shown so
Enthusiastically those qualities of JUS
tice in dealing with all peoples; cour-
age efficiency and leadership in
meeting the issues that have made
these years memorable we give our
hearty endorsement to his candidacy
for reelection. In a further effort
to acquaint our people with his rec
ord and fuller appreciation of his
character which so admirably fit him
to continue the chief executive of
this cosmopolitan city we have ar
ranged two public meetings to Itch
we invite their attendance. The first
of these will be held in the head
quarters of the North Side Civic and
Political League, Bryant and 9Th
Avenue North, Thursday night, June
9Th. The second will be held in the
Warrington School, Clinton Avenue
and 37th Street, Friday night, June
9th.
In both of these meetings Mr.. An
derson will appear and speak in his
own behalf. Other speakers who pos
sess the confidence of our group will
add interest to these gatherings.
