Hearings on Protested Liquor
Licenses Are Started;
Ia Are Affected

Consideration of IA liquor l;

jectionS had been filed wa
started by the District Alcoho
Beverage Control Board today.
The board also handed dow
a decision, refusing to accede t..
request of the Takoma Parl
Citizens Association that theii
neighborhod be made totally dry
The association had requested
the control board to recommend
to the District Commissioners es
tablishment of a dry section, but
the control board ruled it hal
no authority to take such action.
KilIeen Gets License
Meeting yesterday the board
started taking up the cases Of ap
plicants who had been protested.
The first case was that Of Ed
ward V. Killeen whose applica-
tion had been opposed by police.
After hearing Mr.. Killeen de-
Scribed by Lieut.. George Little. of
the police vice squad, as a "bie
shot gambler" the board decidec
that the evidence was hearsay
and granted him a beer whole
saler'S license.
The board also granted an off
sale license to Louis Kraft, 2100
Eighteenth st. N. w. This place
is located across the street from
the Wardman School, and the
Board of Education had protested
this and a number of other ap-
plicationS for licenses in the
vicinity of schools. The contro
board ruled, however, that Oft
sales stores should be allowed.
Demand Still Brisk
DR.. George BoWerman, head O.
the Public Library, entered an OBJ
lection to licensing any on-Sale
places in the vicinity of the Ii
brarieS. He entered no specific
objections.
With the novelty Of legal liquor
wearing off, the demand still re-
mained brisk today. Tables at
night clubs and hotels for tonight
the first Saturday since legaliza
tion, were at premium.
Liquor stores reported ample
stocks on hand to meet the steady
demand, although there were
shortages in a few lines. More
liquor is on the way here, how
ever, and there is plenty to carry
over the weekend.
Nothing but beer and light
wine will be sold tomorrow un
der the control law.

CHAPTER 6

For weeks after Kevns letter Pippin lived in dream.

tured him standing by the rail looking into moont waters
and calling-with all his heart calling to her.
In her bureau drawer hidden under stack Of lace and

"Oh sure sweetheart take and love it, he consented
when Pppn shyly asked if he meant for her. Now,
she from school, she closed the door OF her
and took the picture, gazing at it and lost.
The flashing sweet eyes looked darkly with enchant

glorious With anguish of yearning she imagined Kelvin

Once walking home from school with Kathe, she saw
Emmie Lawton standing at the corner Emme smoked

they knew her eyes darted down the block with violent
awarenesS.
"Shes waiting for Jack Garside' Pppn thought, "and
he's not going to show He's trying to ditch her, but
She won't let him go'
Emmie was symbol Of woman waiting in vain for the
who has grown weary.
Then Pippin met the tall blond ensign That saved her
from fading altogether away in longing for Kelvin.
Ensign William Lodge had travelled air. he was H.

Nv CIT RERT CETnES
By GILBERT SELDES

Notes on the Back Of a Blue
Eagle: General johnson has ar
ranged a five-day circus Of criti-
cism Of the NRA, but I don't sup
pose anyone will tell him that
the trouble with the NRA is it
isn't interesting any more. This
may mean that the NRA is as
successful and established as
the Constitution Of the United
States or that it has merely be-
come stale, flat, and, as Shake
Speare added, improbable. I
have heard both reports.
The NRA was launched with
an overchargea Of emotion; 1t
didn't quite blow the gun to
pieces, but the noise was more
Impressive than the carrying
power Of the bullet. When the
thing got mixed up with codes,
chiselerS, lawyers, and quarreIS'
the emotion went out.
The other plans Of the Admin
istration are less spectacular,
but they mean more because
they are on the road to prac-
tical Utopia. The CWA and the
PWA and other agencies are pay
ing money to people, not because
they are employed in mills and
factories, but because a man
with fifteen dollars in his pocket
on Saturday night is a more de-
Sirable citizen than a man with
none.
The NRA may turn into Boy
ScoutiSh agreement between
frightened capital and eager
labor, or into a dignified guild
system, or may be forgotten.
The real New Deal consists in
getting money into the hands
Of people who need it and will
spend it.
Note on a Program: It took
about a week for the sophiSti-
Gated people of New York to
take to their boSomS one of the
most entertaining Spectacles
ever produced for them: -Four
Saints in Three Acts" Because
the words are by Gertrude Stein
and therefore mean nothing,
making no ordinary sense-the
first weeks audiences tried hard
to read meanings into the work.
The second week is different.
AS they say at the Follies, which
is also funny, "a show is a
show"
The settings of -Four Saints
in Three Acts" are made of
cellophane and look like a rock
candy. AS for conflict" which
the professors say ought to be
in all drama, the most visible
one is a disagreement between
two characters, one saying that
this is the fourth scene, the
other insisting it is the fifth.
The music runs from parodies
OF negro spirituals to goodish
Gershwin and sometimes to very
fine original work.
The effect of lunacy wears
off after a while and sheer
enjoyment takes its place. It
is an uproarious farcical opera
and infinitely more entertain
ing than the serious kind. It
has been suggested that this
is an opera to end all operas,
and I am heartily in it's favor
on all counts.
Note on the Back of an Hon
orable Discharge from the U.
S. Army: The Nazi govern
ment has repudiated a book
called Germany Prepares for
War" published here by Har-
court). That is diplomacy, not
criticism. The book is a real
istic study of how Germany
ought to conduct the next war,
against whatever enemies she
can make. It is a great help
to militarists, the world over.
In connection with it, Ameri-
cans ought to read Hoffman
NickerSon's Can We Limit

Is "DO we want TOP"

state prison system August 1 out
of a total of 9,071 prisoners han
died during the month of July, ac-
cording to the report for July
made public, today by Director j.
B. Roach Of the prison division of
the state; highway and public
works commission. During July
SGT thirty-day prisoners were re-
ceived and 456 thirty-day prison
ers discharged.
There were more escapes in
July than in several months, with
1O8 escapes, although of these 66
were captured and returned. But
this large number of escapes caus-
ed general Tightening up on the
part of the prison management
with instructions to guards to
shoot any prisoner that did not
halt Immediately when command
ed to. Guards were also told that
from now on it means their jobs
when prisoners escape and that if
they want to keep their jobs they
must keep their prisoners. Since
these new edicts went out, there
has been a noticeable decrease in
the number of escapes, according
to Mr. Roach.
cit must be remembered, how
ever, that we are working an az
erage of 5000 prisoners on the
highways every day, in groups of
from 10 to 30 men, and that it
is much easier for a prisoner to
escape when working out in the
open along roads frequently lin
ed with dense underbrush than
when kept confined inside of wall
ed or fenced enclosures" Roach
said. "Since we are able to pro-
vide only about one guard for
each 10 prisoners, it is not always
possible for the guards to keep
tab on every man, so that now
and then a prisoner manages to
slip off into the underbrush be-
fore the guards notice it. But we
are doing the best we can with
the number of guards we are able
to have. We believe we have def
nitely halted the epidemic of es-
capes in July and that from now
on fewer and fewer prisoners will
be able to escape"
