SUSPECTS PROFITEERING
IN WHISKY

By Citizen.
I have noticed that The Times
often will print the facts VIXEN
other papers will not.
Well, how about the whisky
prices? We readers would like to
know the real facts as to where the
profits from the exorbitant prices
charged for spirits in Indianapolis
are going.
-Four Roses blended whisky sells
at its lowest in local cut-Tate drug
stores at s189 a pint. In Chi
cago you can buy the same pack
age for SIPS. Certainly the state
liquor tax does not satisfactorily ac-
count for any such tremendous dis
crepancy and the comparative prices
quoted are typical. In all neigh
boring states liquor prices are ma
terially cheaper and all those states

The capitalist system is decaying.
The parting of the ways is at hand.
We are going to fascism of the
type now in effect in Germany or
as the other alternate, dictatorship
of the workers similar to the only
successful dictatorship now in exist
ence in the Soviet Union. Take your
choice, fascism or communism.

am for the New Deal as it has
taken thousands Of persons of poor
reliefs.
Any honest, thinking man will
have to admit that our country was
on the verge of collapse when
Franklin D. Roosevelt was elected.
Our country is so per cent better
of today than it was when he was
elected. The farmer is better off,
and the laboring man and the bust
ness man are better of.

It is natural that a good many
readers Of The Indianapolis Times
agree with V. y. V. in his letter in
the Message Center Of July 5 about
the column, Capital Capers."
This article daily describes COM
pany of debauching morons, dudes
and sheiks. The masses are too
serious minded to read about such
idling and drinking loafers in these
strenuous times and hope TO have
something more worth while

DOUBTS EFFICIENCY OF
NEW LABOR BOARD
BY NJ. f. Alexander Jr.
The celebrity and tranquility that
the new labor board, created and
empowered by the newest labor bill
of the President, has shown in set
Ting the longshoremen's strike is
gratifying. The west coasts labor
conflict is timely, for it is speedily
debunking any cherished notions
that the new labor bill, which is en-
tirely different from the Wagner
labor bill, will tend to clarity the
situation in regard to employer and
employee relations.
While the bill does create the
power to establish arbitration
boards which can investigate is
sues and hold elections to deter
mine employe representa- tives, it
provides no mechanism for enforc-
ing the results Of such an election,
and it has been indisputably shown
that Sectrion IA Of the NRA is not
helpful in such a situation.
In fact, the status of labor, its
organiza ton and representation is
more beclouded than ever before.
This fact is becoming apparent and
the passage Of such a labor bill
makes the fact still more clear.
l believe this clouding of the sit
uation by the administration is in
territorial and that it is evidence Of
its demagogery, 1t is just a carrot
for one of the horses that Mr..
Roosevelt admits he is riding and
hopes to continue to ride until it
gets wise. The horse 1 refer to
is the great mass Of truly progress
sive thinkers Of the United States
who wish once more to see large
and secure middle class which at the
present time is diminishing and will
continue to decrease under the adj
ministration two-horse program.
