BOOTLEGGERS
Wilson and Other Officers
to War on SpeakieS and

Full Fury of Laws
Penalty.

Cooperation Of the public and
legal vendors of 80 beer and wine
in driving out bootleggers, speak
easies and beer flats is asked today
by Herbert F. Wilson, Marion coun-
ty prosecutor, and federal authori-
ties.
Pledging the full support Of his
office and police in drive against
illegal purveyors Of hard liquor and
home brew, Wilson declared author
tiles lat the same time would af-
ford the protection the law gives to
the seller and purchaser of the le-
gal product"
Public intoXication and drunken
driving will not be tolerated, Wilson
declared, and offenders will be
prosecuted to the full extent of the
law.
No Leniency to Be Shown
Violators of the state beer and
wine control bill will De prosecuted
vigorously, and no leniency will be
shown Just because congress has
seen fit to legalize beer and wine,
Wilson ruled.
He explained that authorities will
proceed in enforcement and inter
probation of the law as follows:
Home-breW and other intoXicat-
ing liquors can not be sold legally
although beer and wine can be
made for home consumption.
Intoxicating liquor can not be
transported legally. The legalized
beverages can not be brought into
the state unless the transporter
holds a permit. Residents of the
state. however, can transport the
legalzed beer and wine from one
county to another for their own
use.
Stores Sell by Bottle
There is no restriction on the al
coholic content Of beer and wine
made for home consumption by the
user.
There can be no drinking of le-
galized beverages on the premises
: where it is purchased, except in res
taurants, clubs and other places
designated by permit.
Groceries and other stores selling
bottled beer can sell by the single
bottle, but it must not be opened
on the premises.
Curb service" on beer and wine is
prohibited.
Any person intoxicated in public
or driving a motor vehicle while
under the influence of liquor
whether purchased legally or other
wise, will be subject to arrest.
Bootleg War to Go On
Although federal authorities pre-
dict a decline in federal court bust
ness as a result of new state laws
in regard to the liquor traffic, Basil
H. Minnick, deputy prohibition ad-
miniStrator for the southern district
of Indiana, announced the war on
bootleggers will continue.
Most of the bootlegging has been

Stahr with an appreciative smack.
You know, this is the strongest beer

Plenty for Luncheon Rush
Stair is offering luncheon COM
bination of a sandwich and beer for
20 cents in contrast to the price OF
20 cents for beer alone charged at
most places.

but were assured they would have
plenty on hand for the noon lunch

The Harrison management said
five calls for beer were received from
guests before 8, but they had to wait
until the beer had been cooled.
Former Famous Bar Busy
A famous bar of former days, now
a lunchroom, was doing one OF the

CHICAGO, Oct. 14.-Fifty-three
building and loan associations af-
filiated with the United States
Building and Loan League have
assets exceeding $10,000,000 each,
as of July i, according to H. F..
Cellarius, secretary-treasurer Of
the league. Ninety-four other as
sociations have resources between
$5,00O,0O0 and $10,00O,000 as of
the same date.
Mr.. Cellarius says II of these
associations showed some increases
in assets. during the six months
between January l and July l..
They are located in New York, IL

MIA and Distric of Columbia,
showing improved conditions and

tions beginning in these areas
during the first h alf of this

Comparing the records of the
associations above $4,000, 900 with
their status in the normal year,
1927, the league secretary-tr
urer finds that 81 of them today
have assets considerably higher

SUBURB
North Washington Realty Co.
Erect Detached Homes
With New Features

No one better than the new.
conner to Washington realizes
that a real shortage in modern
homes actually exists today in
and around the Nations Capital.
In order to meet this situation,
the North washington Realty
Company plans construction OF
several large groups of modern
detached houses. in its various
subdivisions, located in the Silver
Spring area, just north of Wash
ington.
First House Planned
The first step in the conStruc.
ton of these homes is already
under way IN South Woodside
Park, just off the Colesville Road
and adjacent to Mrs. KS Toll
House Tavern. In this particular
spot the company will shortly
offer houses modern in every de-
tail, completely adapted to the
needs of the average family. with
the privilege of purchasing in ad-
vance of completion at $3.50
and up. Construction experts de-
clare these figures in each in
stance to be hundreds of dollars
cheaper than duplicate homes
can be erected for in the early
spring.
The first of the proposed new
houses will rise on an improved
corner lot, faced on one side by
the new Dale Drive, which is now
being surfaced in anticipation Of
the construction of these and
other new homes in this section,
and also for the $25O,OO0 Senior
High School which will be built
this year under the Maryland
Public Works Program.

Thursday; Success of Three
Month Campaign Praised

The dream of a group Of men
three months ago has materialized
into a reality-a reality that will
mean a delightful home for some
one. For with the auctioning off
next Thursday afternoon of the
Renowned House on Fourteenth
Street and Pennsylvania Avenue,
the Washington Board of Trade
Renovize Committee will realize
the success of it's plan to stimulate
business and employment in the
District through the launching of
widespread property improve

Vernon ovens hammer, october
10, at p. m.
When the 70-year-old dilapidated
shack was placed on it's present
site, it was the aim of the Reno
VIE Committee to prove to home
owners of Washington and vicinity
what could be accomplished at a
modest cost in Transforming old
houses into modern, well-equipped
homes.
"The renovizing demonstration
has been most successful" Arthur
B. Heaton, chairman of the COM
mittee, said yesterday. "And proof
of its success canAbe seen in the
thousands of visitors who have
inspected the house during the
last two months and the number
of inquiries which We have re-
ceived." Heaton declared the
campaign to renovize Washing
ton" was equally as successful as
similar campaigns conducted in
other large cities, notably Detroit
and Philadelphia, both of which
places he visited before introduc-
ing the campaign here.
Further proof that the cam
paign has been successful, Heaton
said, was the fact that during
June, July and August there have
been q per cent more repairs
permits taken out than over the
same period last year. The report
of September this year shows an
increase of 40 repair permits over
the preceding month.

HOME'S s BEAUTY
ENHANCED BY
|NEFLOORS
Standards Bureau Points Out
Methods of Refinishing
Worn, SoiIed Wood

Surface condition Of floors con-
stitutes a factor which may en-
hance or greatly detract from the
beauty of a home, according to
leaders in the American paint,
varnish and lacquer industries.
Recognizing the Importance OF
floors in the home scheme, the
Bureau of Standards has just
issued a comprehensive report or
their care and treatment, based
on an exhaustive study Of the
subject.
Exposed to hard wear and tear,
regular refinishing is essential and
frequent renovation, it is pointed
out, costs less in the long rum
At the first signs of paint i'm
pairment or the wearing Of var
nish, the floor should be given
new coat of finish.
Warning is Given
In a section of the report de-
voted to wood floors, the bureau
stresses the adviSability of giving
individual types of floring specific
treatments best suited to them,
For example, the bureau warns
against the use of strong solutions
in cleaning wood floors and also
against excessive use of water,
since these may darken wood and
in time soften it and raise the
grain.
In connection with refinishing
the Bureaus report says:
I'm refinishing an old wood
floor, it is first made as tight,
level and smooth as possible.
1t may need to be planed,
sandpapered or rubbed down
with steel wool. Any rem
nants Of tacks must be drawn
out or driven below the sur
face. Then scrub the wood
with hot water and soap or
other detergent and rinre with
clear water. If the wood is
badly stained, spread over it a
bleach solution made by dis
solving a teaspoOnful of OxaIic
acid in a cup of hot water,
and let stand overnight. Then
thoroughly rinse the floor with
clear water to remove all of
the bleach and cleansing
agents and let dry.
READY FOR FINISH
"The thoroughly dried floor
may be stained, vanished,
oiled, painted or waxed. After
applying the first coat of fin
iSh, it may be necessary to
fill cracks and holes with
commercial crack filler" coll
Ored to match the floor"
Varnish or paint can be re-
moved from wood floor by
scraping and planning, or by ap
plying a paint and varnish re-
mover, the Bureaus report states
After a floor has been scraped
planed and sandpapered, it can
be finished as if it were new.

PAINT RUSTIC FURNITURE

Rustic furniture, with the bark
still on it, is less apt to catch
and tear silk stockings and sheer
dresses if the wood is coated with
a spar varniSh.

Fine Meshed Screens
Require Treatment

Protection of finely meshed
screens can be made doubly sure
by application of a coating of
paint. Contrary to popular belief
that copper or brass screens need
no paint. they should be care
fully protected with good coat
ing to prevent oxidation. In wet
weather, rusty water frequently
runs and stains the woodwork.

Spdtter Floor Finish
In Colonial Homes

The spatter floor finish, widely
used in colonial houses, especially
in New England, is obtained by
painting the floor in a dark shade
and scattering it with contrasting
color in lighter tones. Spatter-
ing is done by dipping the brush
into the lighter color and then
striking the handle of the paint
brush sharply, continuing until
uniformity of spatter is obtained.

It isn't difficult to transform

attractive additions to the kitchen
color scheme. Painting the back

VARNlsH OVER PAINT

It is sometimes advisable to
use a final coat of varnish over
some types of interior paint and
always over stain. Varnish pro-
tectS the finish, makes a harder
wearing surface and simplifies
cleaning.

Frame Houses Need
Paint Protection

The average frame house re-
quires renewed paint protection
every three to five years. Metal
work, if exposed to moisture and
the action of rust, may require
more frequent recoating.
