distillers were told today by DR..
e. G. Greenbaum, code expert,
as the hearing opened on the
proposed diStillerS' code.
The Governments policy for
control of liquor pending Con-
gressional action will be a three
point one, E. G. Lowry. of the
Treasury Department. announced.
Will Regulate Prices
These points are:
l. Potential price control as
an emergency measure "neces-
sary for the consumer and the
industry alike"
2. Production control.
8. A strong Federal supervi-
Sorry body.
Lowry said:
Excessively high prices would
mean a continuation of the
operations of illegal members
of the industry, while large
profits would indicate Over-prO-
duction leading to forced meth
DDS of sale and stimulated con-
sumption of liquors"
He emphasized that both price
and production control as sought
in the code would be purely dis
cretionary and would be invoked
only in the case of emergency.
Lowry declared the committee
in formulating a code realized
that it was facing an emergency
situation. He said:
This situation is complicated
by the existence of large and
well organized illicit group COM
peting with the industry"
The distillers were stunned by
the latest development, a proposed
substitute for the importers code.
This substitute followed by only a
few hours the proposed Admin
istration substitute for the code
drafted by the distillers them
selves.
Import Quotas Proposed
Secretary of Agriculture Wallace
was informed that a liquor i'm
porters' marketing agreement.
calling for import quotas on all
alcoholic beverages, other than
beer and similar malt ferments,
and the licensing of all importers,
would be proposed by the inter
departmental committee of the
Administration.
1t was this committee which
tossed a bombshell into the dis
tillers' camp yesterday by propos-
ing strict Government control of
domestic liquor pro6Dctio and
distribution. Hearings on Ehe i'm
porters' code are scheduled for
next Wednesday.
Offer Cooperation
The distillers issued statement
declaring their willingness to CO.
operate with the Government in
meeting problems facing the in
dustry.
The Presidents special commit
tee already has filed a tentative
code for the brewing industry. Re-
ports persisted that a proposed
substitute for the winters code
may be presented. thus bringing
all phases of the liquor industry
under Federal supervision.
Indications were seen that the
Administration strategy would be
to encourage the consumption of
light wines and beer in preference
to hard liquor"

In two and half centuries Phila-

His care and forethought in laying
out its central area in the urn-shaped

Day Dreams Must
Not Become Habit

Many persons do not clearly see
the means by which they can make
their dreams come true. That Is es-
pecially true of children; and If the
child's day-dreaming habits are not
wisely handled he may be unlucky
enough to have the habit become
fixed.
Day dreams first appear when q
person cannot actually get what he
wants. or when he gets what he does
not want Day dreams are then used
as compensation for actual lacks in
real life. 1t is noteworthy that the
dreamer occupies the central, the ex-
allied position.
Play of the day-dreaming type may
go to such an extent that the indi-
vidual tends to shut out reality and
to take the dream for actuality. One
boy had dreamed so much and often
that he was a great inventor that he
actually came to believe that he was
a mechanical genius.
He came to college heralded as
such. The professor of physics found
very soon that he did not know the
first thing about the elementary con-
cepts of physics. And what was
worse, he would not apply himself to
learn them. He had no knowledge Of
details, and less patience than
knowledge.
This boy had INDUCED In day
dreaming and had been unwisely en-
couraged to be satisfied with mere
dreams instead of having been stim-
ulated to translate dreams into re-
alities.
Day dreams are not necessarily
baneful influence in the efforts of the
individual to adjust to the realities
of life. They may be the basis for
great achievement The danger en-
tiers when one is satisfied with the
shadow in the dream and makes No
attempt to actualize the dream con-
tent.-Dr. Edwin G. Fleming in the
Scientific Monthly.

It was always the dream of William
Penn that his city should ever remain
"a greene country towne" Through
these two and a half centuries the
citizens steadily kept faith with his
purpose, and today we find one acre
out of every thirteen within its con-
fines devoted to parks and squares.
The beauty spot of the whole city is
Fairmount park, one Of the largest In
the world. With 43 miles of drives
and A miles Of paths winding through
its 5000 acres of scenic beauty and
romantic history, one who has day
