Revocation of the distilling per-

Charles L. Grover, of Edgerton,
Mo-, was announced today by the
Federal Alcohol Control Admins
tration.
Basing it's decision on testimony
taken at a hearing held here, the
FACA announced that Johnson
and Grover in their application for
a permit had withheld information
that a third party, Frank De
Mayo, was supplying practically
all the capital for their venture
and was to receive one-third of
the profits. This practice is in
violation of FACA regulations.
Furthermore, it was developed
at the hearing that Mayo had on
several occasions been charged
with violations of the prohibition
act and, in 1929, was sentenced to
serve 26 months in Leavenworth
penitentiary for operating an illicit
still.
The FACA also found that the
Johnson-Grover distillery was not,
as sworn by them and in accord.
ance with FACA rules, in opera.

permit application was filed.

45 MANS BEST
YEAR, CLAIMS
SEC. PERKINS

Although Secretary Of Labor
Frances Perkins believes life be-
gins at As, the United States Gov
eminent has an idea that a man
outlives his usefulness when he
reaches his upper 40's.
Madam Secretary thinks that
the tendency in industry to deny
employment to persons just be-
cause they have reached the age
Of As is deplorable.
Is Most Productive
Addressing the House Labor
COMMITTEES the other day, Secre-
tary Perkins declared:
"There's no reason for being
prejudicial against workers OF
As. A person at As Is at his
most productive year"
But officials of the Civil Serv-
ice Commission admitted today
that it's pretty tough crashing
into the Government if the ap-
plicant is beyond that age.
In fact, there are some jobs
for which an applicant cannot
qualify il he is more than IS
years old. Railway mail employees,
must be between the ages Of 18
and IS.
Others Can't Try
Other postal employees, exclN,
sive of clerks and stenographers,
can't take a Civil Service exam
ination if they've passed the age
of As, an official of the commits
sion explaining that they can't
take care of the duties of their
job if they are beyond that age.
Department of Justice opera
tives-the &c" men-must also be
under 35 when appointed, al
though not under Civil Service.
The clerks and stenographers
are in a class all by themselves,
having succeeded in having the
maximum age limitation raised to
SO after raising quite a row over
the Civil Service Commissions
order limiting the entrance age
to 40.
