thority to carry out his orders.
The detail here Is for four-year
period, but it was said at National

would not have been up until the first
part of next year. However, 1t was
said that his relief came at this time
as the War Department desired him
for assignment to duty in California.
He is scheduled to sail from New York
for his new post on December IA.
In the meantime, he will report for
duty in the Office Of the Chief Of
Infantry at the War Department.

Col. Oehmann pointed out that the
officials of the local guard had for
more than a quarter Of a century
been trying vainly to have Congress
provide proper armory facilities here
for the local troops. He also said that
it was necessary to have the support
of organizations and individuals
throughout the country in urging
their national representatives to make
some provision for model facilities
for the local troops.

that a ring engaged in smuggling for

established 8 landing point somewhere
on the eastern Shore of Maryland and
had employed number of local resi-

from rum vessels.
The heads Of the conspiracy, 1t was

Repeal, 1t is thought, according to
the Sun, would not necessarily stop

country were usually charged with
smuggling rather than with violating

Sitting in Case

Judge Christensen in q lengthy pre-
pared statement In which he reviewed
his connection with the federal relief
administration and the fact that he
was witness at the federal court
trial at which LANCER was convicted.
Calling attention to the fact that
he had raised the same question at q
preliminary hearing before the court,
Christianson said he desired to pre-
sent it again and to inquire Of counsel
whether they felt q district Judge
should be called in his place.
The facts recited were that in 1888
he was named by Governor LANCER as
chairman Of the federal emergency re-
lief committee and accepted only be-
cause he was told his refusal to serve
would mean delay In giving aid to
the needy people of the state. His
decision was reached, he said, after
conference with other members OF
the court and as matter of public
duty.
Twice during 1888 he tried to re-
sign, he said. but each time his res
lsnation was rejected by LANCER and
by Harry Hopkins, head Of the fed
e:al relief set-up. He cid not insist,
he said. because he did not want to
interfere with the relief program and
thereby bring hardship upon the peo-
PIE. The nature Of this relief, he ex-
planned, IS shown by the fact that the
government spent 81 1000 600 in March
and $2,385, 900 in April and May Of
this year in relief enterprises. He

INDIANA DRINKS
BEER ANY Time,
FIGURES SHOW
Consumption Decreases but
Little in Winter
Months.

Winter or summer. Hoosiers are
beer drinkers, a study made by the
Indiana Brewers Association re-
vealed today.
The figures from the excise di-
rector's Office show that the high
peak Of beer was reached in Sep
TENDER. the month following intro
duction Of dYaught beer, those max
ing the study pointed out.
But the January consumption did
not drop greatly, they declared.
September tax at 5 cents a gallon
amounted to S69, 869.25, while in
January it was 500, 1929. The Janu-
airy payment exceeded that OF De-
cember by S11,17108 thus proving
that HooSiers like beer as a mid
winter drink, the brewers contended.
Taxes on malt, based on cents a
pound, dropped from the high
mark of S27,284,12 in June to
S3,378.15 in January. Malt sold in
January would be equivalent to 28l,-
500 gallons of home-brew, while
manufactured beer totaled 1927 800
gallons.
Excise taxes paid on hard liquor
at the rate of IS cents a pint
jumped to $64,652 in December, the
first month after repeal Of the
eighteenth amendment and just be-
fore the holidays. Then in jan
uary they dropped down to $4,000.
The best previous month for
whisky was in May, when the excise
taxes totaled $12,04450.
While hard liquor and malt taxes
dropped, wine at the rate of so cents
gallon accounted for $2,244.19
more excise taxes in January. That
was the first month in which wine
taxes were collected. Thus beer
brought to the state treasury $20,137
more in January than the other
alcoholic beverages combined, the
brewers pointed out.
