Archives Building lowered above the

and then looked nonplused.

mitted.

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR

1.-TWO days leave in order to do
that. On three occasions I have
been late for work. Once, on pay
day I was pressed for cash and
had to run to the bank during
office hours in order to cash my
check.
Just lately I decided I wanted
to go to my home for my vaca-
ton. I figured that with two
weeks available could travel to
my home in the midwest, enjoy a
week with my family and get
back before my is days of leave
had expired.
But, imagine my surprise when
found that with all of the little
absences taken from my leave I
had only six days available for
my vacation. A fine rest I'll get
from that. G. WORKER.

BANS
. SOUGHT FOR
DRY STATES

The Treasury wants prompt &C.
ton by Congress on it's proposals
for new laws to enforce the con-
Stitutional ban against shipment
Of liquor into dry States.
The Treasury proposal calls
for revision of the laws under
which this ban was enforced
prior to national prohibition. The
chief change is to give protec.
ton to States which allow 80
per cent beer. While Congress
has considered beverages contain
ing over one-half of l per cent
alcohol Intoxicating for tax and
enforcement purposes, enactment
of the national 80 per cent beer
law before repeal, has changed
the situation.
The new plan provides for Fed
eral enforcement against ship
ment of any liquor into a State
totally dry.
But if a State allows 80 per
cent beer or is only partially
wet, the ban would be enforced
in conformity with the State law.
In these cases Federal permits
would have to be obtained to i'm
port any liquor into a State.
The original Reed amendment,
enforcing the han against ship
ment of liquor into dry States,
would be repealed, but the earlier
Webb-Kenyon and Wilson acts
would be retained.

Fear of a strike of 100000 btu
minous coal miners was lessened
today when the legislative COM
mittee of the National conference
of bituminous coal producers and
representatives of the United
Mine Workers reached an agree.
ment on amendments to the CUT
fey coal control bill.
Although the nature Of the
amendments was not made pub
lie, it is understood they are minor
in character, but that they form
ed a basis for agreement. Both
the miners and a large number
of operators have stood for the
Guffey bill in principle from the
beginning. ... ,
With the combined pressure of
miners and operators and with
the threat of a great coal strike
hanging over their heads, mem
bers of Congress may rush the
Guffey bill into law.

MORE IMPORTS,
WALLACE PLEA

NEW YORK, June 10 (U.S).
Maintaining the crisis in cotton
will bring tariff showdown, Sec
rotary Of Agriculture Wallace is
renewing his plea for more i'm
ports.
In an article in the July issue
of Foreign Affairs, he assailed
people who are "Strong believers
in the sacredneSs of exports and
the hellishness of imports"
Declaring farmers will continue
to demand a processing tax so
long as manufacturers demand
high tariffs, he wrote:
"The situation will get worse
rather than better unless the
American people are willing to
start lOaning money again to
foreign nations, or unless the
foreign nations are willing and
able to continue to send us large
quantities of gold, or unless the
United States is willing to &C.
cept greatly increased quanti.
ties Of imports. There is no
other way out.
ThOSe who profess to be 100
per cent American in their at
! titude inSist that there shall be
no increase in the imports into
the United States.
"The pioneer prejudices Of
the American people would, if
: carried to their most complete
expression, completely destroy
foreign purchasing power, and
hence the foreign market for
American cotton"

Shoulders At Rise

With the District traffic NOR

month, the announcement to the
effect that the Red Cross is set
ting up 10 first aid stations

ton of "a marked increase" in
traffic accidents during the Shrine
convention, makes for a bit Of
shudder.
1t seems that pedestrians should
exercise more than usual care

tually drop behind our normal
monthly average of traffic deaths.
