Liquor Control
by TALCOTT POWELL,

TO provide wide enough competition. Con-
sumers in this state have suffered from exorbi-
tant prices since repeal This has been caused
because the importers had monopoly on beer
and wholesale druggists on whisky. The retail
druggist has not made tremendous profits out
of hard liquor, but the markup of the whole
salers has been too high and the consumer has
paid the bill.
There is only one way TO stop this monop-
oily. That is to widen the market by permitting
reputable grocers and department stores to
sell at retail With such a competitive situa-
ton prices will tend to maintain normal
level.
THE machinery set up for granting per-
u mits is excellent. A local board sits in
each county on the qualifications of apph-
cants. Members of this board will be in a
splendid position tc know the character of
persons desiring to sell liquor
The provision for the abolition of road
houses is, We think, a v4se one. These estab-
lishments are always the gathering place for
undesirable persons They are located in the
country where there is no adequate police
force to keep an eye on them. irresponsible
persons operate them. Equally irresponsible
patrons drive their cars TO them, get full of
whisky and then drive pack to town menacing
every other motorist on the highway. No one
is going to miss the roadhouses.
Viewed purely as a piece of social legisla-
ton, a valid charge against the legislation is
that it is much too verbose. 1t attempts to
regulate drinking down to the most minute
details. 1t tries to prescribe just how man
should take glass of beer.
From the political standpoint this sur
plusage may be necessary. Indiana has al
ways been filled with dry sentiment No doubt
these provisions were placed in the bill to
satisfy this dry element, which must be re-
assured if the state is to remain in the wet
column
The bill is far from perfect. Yet, by and
large, we think, it is a worthy piece of legisla-
ton Certainly it is a vast improvement on
our present law. Liquor control is still in an
experimental stage. 1t must be approached
one step at time. The McNutt bill is a long
step in the right direction.

long be true should the nation be propelled
down the path of initiation toward cheaper and
cheaper dollars.
The Administration could checkmate the
inf1atonists by announcing that there will be
no further major devaluation or arbitrary cur
rency expansion But obviously, preliminary
to such an announcement must come some
kind of international monetary armistice That
is the Administrators cue.

cuss monetary stability was largely response

DENTAL ADVERTISING
BILL is SUPPORTED

I read where they are trying to
pass a law concerning the dental
profession.
Some time ago I read swap ad
in a certain newspaper Of this city
which said: Expert dental work in

Being out of work and badly in
need of set Of false teeth, played
the part of big sap and answered

activities, it is impossible to excuse
him when all this suffering of hung
err and want goes on. Unless Mr..
Roosevelt changes his schemes, the
American people are doomed and
the government shall fall, and the
Armageddon spoken of in the Bible
will come with blood up to the bits
of the horses. Is there any use to
go on with system of govern

IQUOR legislation has always been up to
IL its ears in partisan politics. The admin
istration bill, now before the Legislature IL
no exception. 1t will be severely attacked by
three sorts Of people.
There will be those who will classify it
with Kipling's hero who was neither good
enough to 60 to Heaven nor bad enough to go
70 hell.
Then there will be the ideahsts, both wet
and dry. who are naive enough to believe
that new ideas can be forced into dull heads
By mere act of the Legislature.
Last. there will be some bitterly disap-
pointed gentlemen-if one may call them such
who had hoped for a bill that would en-
trench them in special privilege, give them
chance TO make huge profits at the expense
Of everybody else.
AL of these will be upset about the pres
ent bill. We shall be hearing from every
one of them in the next week.
The regulation Of liquor is a thorny prob

tonal prohibition proved that it is impossible

Il attempts to Danish forever the old
saloon evil" This evil was not due to the
character Of the place which sold drinks, but
was directly caused by an unsavory alliance
between distillers and distributors on the one
hand and the retail liquor outlets on the other.
THE McNutt liquor legislation tries to make
- such alliances impossible in the future.
In its present form. however, there is a bad
omission in the bill. It does not prevent brew
ers distillers and wholesalers from extending
unlimited credit to the retailer. This would be
as effective a means of controlling retailers as
actually giving them cash or fixtures
Still another flaw in the bill is the failure

Maybe the Canadian legation could do some

Finally, Nine. Djalal called up a Brazilian
diplomat because BrazilanS always have guam

BERLIN, July 16 ON.S)-At-
tempts were made by the German
government and storm troop
leaders today to disclaim response
bility for the serious anti-Jewish
rioting along the fashionable Kur-
furstendamm last night when
scores of Jews were savagely
beaten. .,...
Inspired statements from high
official quarters sought to allay
fears the disorders might usher
in a new wave Of violent anti
Semitism. The riots were the
worst since 1888, when Hitherto
anti-SemitiSm was at its height.
A thorough checkup showed no
grounds whatever for reports pub
lished aboard that Jews were hid

against any persons found re-
sponsible for new outbreaks.
The attacks followed reports
published in Nazi newspapers &C.
cusing Jews of protesting with
boots and jeers against a Swedish
anti.Semitic film being shown In
a Kurfurstendamm movie house.
Rowing bands of rioters
swarmed through the busy street,
setting upon all the Jews they
could find. Many were dragged
from the picture house and kicked
and beaten, while others were
attacked in cafes and on the
streets. Numerous windows were
broken.
The government went to ex-
IRENE measures to absolve itself
of responsibility, blaming "hooli-
ganism and rowdyism" for the
disturbances. Many witnesses de-
clared the attackers were in
storm troop uniforms, but Storm
Troop Leader Won Jagow issued
an official disclaimer.

NAILS BEAT Up
BERLIN JEWS

BERLIN, July 16 DISTANT.
Jewish riots broke out last night
on the Kurfuerstendam, Berlin's
Broadway.
Angered by reports that Jews
demonstrated in a moving picture
theater against an anti-Jewish
Swedish film, Nazis swarmed into
the fashionable avenue where
even today Jews gather in large
numbers. The Nazis attacked all
Jews they could find.
Several were knocked down and
beaten. Several cafes and ter.
races where Jews congregate were
wrecked. Windows were smashed
in many places.
The Nazi Angriff warned last
night:
"There are National Socialists
who are experts at clearing
seats in movie. houses. Jews
must be made to feel the iron
fist. This means Jews will not
have another chance to stage
a demonstration"
In ada cent Vielandstrasse,
Nazis stormed Jewish shops.
The fashionable Cafe Bristol
was badly damaged.
Despite urgent calls to the
police by cafe and restaurant pro-
prietors, only small police rein,
forcements showed up, appearing
reluctant to interfere.

children should not play In city thor

are occasions when they have to
