Beating Dry Law

A reputable lawyer was ap.
preached the other day by two
men who told him they wanted
to sell liquor in the District. He
was asked what they should do.
Said he:
go to the Bureau of Inter.
nal Revenue, obtain $25 occu.
patiOnal license and internal
revenue stamps and begin sci.
ling"
This they did and now are
dispensing liquor with a Gov.
ernment license hanging in their
place of business.
Government officials admit
that they can grant $25 occupa-
tional licenses to sell whisky in
the District and as far as the
Government is concerned, the
law is being obeyed.

Swell Friends

Many of the diplomats sent
to Washington experience some
difficulty in mastering the Eng
lish language and becoming
acquainted with various ex-
pressions here.
The story is told about the
town of a young Cuban diplomat
who believed that he knew the
various expressions he encoun-
tered here.
At a party it was said that
a certain charming woman had
come down with the mumps."
The diplomat demanded:
"TheSe MumpS, who are they?
It il strange that I have never
met them!"

HO 7 WEATHER
SPURSRESORT
ACTIVITIES
Summer Home Sites Are in
Demand as People Plan
for Family Outings

With the advent of torrid days
and nights, real estate activities
are being transferred from the
city to summer communities
along the bay and rivers ada
cent to Washington.
The management Of Long
Beach, on Chesapeake Bay, re-
port the sale of increasing num-
bers of summer homesiteS at
that popular Maryland bay shore
community. Developed but q
short year ago, Long Beach pos
Sesses a charm all it's own, with
a natural beauty of woodland
and shore line. Much of this
beauty, like so many other de-
sfrable things in life, is found
in various exclusive spots that
so to make up the hundreds of
acres of the Long Beach COM
munity, places that are away
from the beaten path, where a
cottage can nestle under the
shady trees, and yet have a
wide outlook over the sparkling
bay.
An Exclusive Community
Long Beach is a friendly com.
munity by the bay, a place of
Cozy homes, peace, quiet, free
dom from care-a place apart,
with an exclusivenesS that pro-
tects your family from the un-
desirable elements found in so
many other summer communi-
ties.
The pleasure of salt water
bathing on wide, clean, sandy
beach is enhanced by the beauty
Of the tree-coVered surroundings.
In all directions spreads the un-
broken forest, insuring air that
is ever pure and wholesome and
breezes that are cool and invig-
Grating. Few beach communi-
ties can rival Long Beach in its
beauty or in the magnificence
Of its views.
To one who has never been to
Long Beach and viewed the beau
ties of forest, sea and sand, it
is hard to visualize that so near
Washington there is a quiet,
restful, restricted bay community
that will make you feel miles
away from home, business and
care, and yet be so near the
city that home and business can
be reached by a short, delightful
drive along well-paved roads.
Safe ChiIdren's Beach
Long Beach is children S
paradise, where they can play
to their hearts content upon a
wide, sandy beach, and sport in
the salt water where absolute
safety is assured, and where wise
restrictions prevent undesirable
companions from encroaching
upon their privacy. Long Beach
is not a public resort, but a
highly desirable restricted sum
mer home community that is
growing more and more popular
with wholesome, refined Wash
ingtonians.
The drive to Long Beach is
delightful, with concrete and
hard-surfaced roads direct to the
entrance. It can be reached
by driving out Pennsylvania
Ave. S. E. through Upper Mari
boro, across the PatuXent River
and then following the Solomar
Island route through Prince Fred
erick to the entrance to the
property.

FUTURE HOMES
SYNTHETICALLY
ACHIEVED
Dreams of Chemists Realized
In Experiments in Futur-
iStiC Home

The synthetic home, goal OF
the postwar generation of Ameri-
can chemists, has been achieved
with the aid of a man-made
chemical known and neglected
for a century, it is reported
in Industrial and Engineering
Chemistry, journal of the Ameri-
can Chemical Society.
From the chemical, vinyl resin,
was constructed virtually every
part of the nome, a three-room
apartment in New York city, &C
cording to DR.. j. G.. Davidson and
H. B. Mcclure, of the develop
ment laboratory of the Carbide
and Carbon Chemicals Corpora
ton, joint authors of the report.
Part of the research in the
vinyl resins was conducted at the
Mellon Institute, Pittsburgh. Ear
lier studies were carried out jointly
with the Pierce Foundat Oh, set
up in 1917 by the late John B.
Pierce, president of the American
Radiator Company, for heating
and ventilation research.
The resins, according to the re-
port, are applicable to the con-
struction of small homes and Of
fer a solution, with further de-
velopment, to this phase of the
building industry's blems.
Vinyl resin castings, weighing ap-
proXimately $50 pounds each,
have been made repeatedly and
in the course of a year not one
cracked, warped, or otherwise de-
Perforated. They are the largest
ever developed from the usual
plastic materials. The report

is not to organize. For example
much hay has been sold at ST per
ton and less, yet this organization
has been able to fill orders with
the same quality of hay at So per
ton. In my opinion no one can
make a safe guess on the posi-
bilities lying ahead of the Imper-
ial Hay Growers association. 1t
would not be impossible to develop
an outlet for twice the acreage we
now have. We are now sending
$50 tons to the port at San Diego

for several thousands tons and a
few thousand tons may go to Ha-

individual grower cannot fill other
than assisting some broker by way
of making a contribution to an Or

STATEMENT BY
PRESIDENT OF
HAY GROWERS

H. A. Hastain, president of the I'm
perial Fay Growers association
has given out the following state
ment on valley hay conditions.
Imperial Valley is in the best
place in the United States if not
in the world to develop the hay
business and at prices that will
justify growers to make hay. !
believe that the orderly production
and marketing of hay will put
value into Imperial Valley land and
serve a much needed purpose.
This is especially true since we
make quality of hay that will
go into any market in competition
with the best.
Imperial Valley Hay Growers
association has been functioning
about 30 days and I believe that
we can safely say that our efforts
have more than met our eXpecta-
tons and while the association is
still selling hay below the cost of
production many growers are SELL
ing below what we are getting and
making it impossible for us to do
the greatest good to the growers.

about the disposition of farmers
to organize for self protection and
