RECALLING COLUMBUS

When 27 or more states voted tC
make Columbus Day, October 18th, q
legal holiday, their motive was in
part to give the people day of rest
and enjoyment But the original
reason for establishing this Occa-
sion was the desire of patriotic peO-
Pile to call attention to the man who
started the current of events that
made our country what it is.
The life of such Il man is a Won
derful demonstration of the things
that single individual can do. The
grand idea which Christopher CO.
lumbus conceived, that across the
broad ocean there was land then un-
known, was something that turned
the world upside down. 1t made new
opportunities for energetic people.
II gave them a chance to escape from
the hard conditions of their own
countries, and find success and hap
piness.
The colonists who established
themselves in our country, feeling
no longer bound by the Outworn
ideas that then ruled Europe, pro-
ceeded to establish their own sys-
TENS of government. Where it had
been impossible to create successful
democratic methods in those old
lands, yet in the freedom of the
American continent, the pioneers
were able to work out their own gen.
erOus ideas.
The consequence was that free in
stitutions were established in our
country. and proved so successful
that they were widely copied all over
the world, and have influenced every
country on the globe
AS one man thus brought about
events that have overturned the
world, so it often happens that the
life of our communities is turned in
some wholly new direction by some
one person. One man or woman
who can see clearly the things that
should be done to make a better city
or country, becomes a power. and
confers blessings on generations yet
unborn.

SKEET CONTROL REPORT
SHOWS PROGRESS
TCOntinurd from Fiyn PaSel

tributed as to make it possible to
complete the forty weekly hours OF
work required of each man.
Work in the Rehoboth Bay area
was seriously hampered by the ex-
, tremely high tides prevailing
Throughout large part of the month.
During the later half of September
it was necessary to cease work al
together in that area. This condi-
ton, the report stated, is directly
due to the lack of an adequate inlet
between the ocean and Rehoboth and
Indian River Bays. "The opening
of a real inlet" it stated, from the
ocean into this bay area, which we
are constantly urging, will eliminate
this trouble"
Due to the aid it will be to a satis-
factory attainment of mosquito con-
troll the executive officer and his
staff have been active in advocating
the opening of the proposed new inlet
at Lewes, and the proper dredging
and maintenance of the Indian River
Inlet. 1t is claimed that the proper
opening and maintenance of these
two inlets, with the resultant in
crease in tide range throughout the
area, will aid immensely in making
a further success of mosquito con-
troll work in Delaware.

INCREASE SEEN
 IN BRITISH BEER
Survey Shows Brew Has Staged Comeback
 After Decline

Geneva CUP)-British beer is again coming into its own after 6 sharp decline in 1892. according 10 the League of Nations study on world production and prices just published.
 British brewing increased five per cent when the general pur- chasing power rose in Great Bri. tain in 1883 and the beer duty was reduced. the leagues statisticians report.
 Germany. however, is brewing less beer despite her traditional status in the beer drinking world. There was a further drop in Ger man brewing in 1883.
 Belgium holds the worlds cham pionship for beer production. She brews approximately 2O4 liters per head of the population. Czechos- slovakia ranks second, Great Brit ain third, Denmark fourth, and Germany fifth.
 The leagues beer study shows that the world consumption of beer continued to decrease in re- cent years. However, in 1888 the beer industry recovered consider ably. mainly in anticipation of the United States. demand for beer, with the abolition of prohibition.

MAYORS TRYING TO LEARN ABOUT
 UNEMPLOYMENT
Burden May Be Shifted to Cities-MayOr LaGuar-
 dia Makes Charges
BY EVERETT HOLLIS Tinted Press Staff COrreSDOndent)

NOn1tCu ICSS 0hdA
 Chicago, Nov 23-(U.PD-May- ors and representative of 100 or more cities met with federal off, cials to-day in quest of an answer to reports that the burden of un- employment relief is to be shifted back to local communities.
 From Federal Relief Administra- tor Harry L. Hopkins the annual conference of mayors asked a clear cut announcement of the govern ment's plan of caring for the job less this winter.
 There was sharp conjecture over recent predictions, some attributed to official Washington sources, that the federal government is prepar- ed to transfer job relief responsi- bilities to cities and states.
 The mayors were hopeful that Hopkins speech would provide detailed outline of the social pro- gram, particularly unemployment, which will be presented to congress in January.
 President Roosevelt sent word to the mayor that the next congress undoubtedly would consider pro- posals involving unemployment re- lief, public works, unemployment insurance, old-age pensions and housing.
 Public works activities, a subject of concern among the mayors in discussions of financial distress and relief costs, placed the conference e on record to-day with a proposal which virtually would abolish in terest rates on municipal debts.
 The plan, calling for constitu- tional amendment empowering con- gress to establish uniform rates, was advanced by Mayor Fiorello H. La Guardia of New York. He charged that American cities are in 'the strangulating grip of the money lenders"
 La Guardia asked a large public works program and a reduction of interest rates on municipal bor- rowing to one-eigth of one per cent
 The government would set up a new agency to provide funds to To- cal units, and state legislatures would be called into simultaneous session, probably in February or March, to ratify the constitutional

Liquor Manufacture
 Restricted In Sales
Judge Arthur Els UphOIds Commission Limiting
 Privilege to Own Products Interest in Ruling

An important ruling on whether . manufacturer of liquor can sell liquor other than what he makes. was handed down yesterday fin Hartford superior court by Judge Arthur F. Ellis. According to his decision, the manufacturer can sell only that product he manufactures himself. The case came to him, through an action brought by the Eastern Bonded Winery Company. of Hartford, who sought a declar- atory judgment on the ruling of the liquor commission as contained in Section 686b of the liquor control act.
 Commission Upheld
 The plaintiff claimed the com mission threatened to revoke the company's license if it persisted in selling a product other than what is manufactured by the company. The company claimed it had an opportunity to sell a well known brand of liquor,
 Judge Ellis said, ''Waiving the question as to whether 8 declara- tory judgment can properly be given in this kind of case and whether an injunction should be granted if the plaintiff prevailed, and passing directly to the merits of the matter, I conclude that the Liquor Control Commission is right in it's decision. It seems clear to me that the class known as 'manu- facturer" was created for the man. ufacture, storage and wholesale distribution of it's own products only.
 Intent Held Clear
 Quite naturally. in giving the right to manufacture, the Legisla- ture would make it law that the produce so manufactured could be sold at wholesale by the maker. The

BOTANY AIDS
 WORLD STUDY

New York (UP)-Botany-par- ticularly that division of the sci efce which considers plants that are useful to man as a food, has been instrume ental in proving the non- existence of prehistoric islands which, at one time, might have aided travel from continent to con- tinent.
 An exhibition which illustrates this is now in progress, in an edu- cational display presented by the New York Botanical Garden. at the Fall Flower Show of the Hor- ticultural Society of New York, now being held at the American Museum of Natural History.
 Foods such as rice, wheat, corn, and the common fruits and vege- tables that have helped to demon strate this hypothesis have been divided into two groups: those which have originated in Europe and Asia and those which origi- mated in North and South Amer ica. All these food plants came from restricted sectors of the world-particularly Mexico.' the highlands of Chile and Peru, the Mediterranean basin, Asia Minor. India, and Southern China. It was in these regions that early agrari- an developments gave rise to the first civilizations.
 Dr E. D. Merrill. director of the Botanical Garden, points out that they reached this side of the world prior to 1492. the first authentic date we have of the crossing of the Atlantic ocean. Since that date, Europe and Asia have been the re- cipients of such purely American products as corn, potatoes. toma- toes. and peppers. whereas North and South America have acquired rice. cabbage, turnips and other foods common to the world to-day.
