Any psychologist or pSychiatrist

MIR. Howe said. President Roose-

tried to do his thinking for him.
His highly touted liberalism is moth

Despite his rOCk-ribbed Republic

And how about Hoover?
Hoover can never get the nOmina-

You refer in your letter of Oct.
IA, the fact that as a member of
the bar, I should be familiar with
the Federal law. That Mr.. Yellow

personally know that there are very
few lawyers in the United States
familiar with all of the rules and
regulations of even your department.
and that SO out of every 100 who
apply for and receive Federal per-
mits could not be familiar with all
of the provisions of the Federal law,
especially technical rulings of your
division. am, however, very fami-
liar with the fact that the rules of
the Treasury Department, Alcoholic
Tax Unit, are not all of the law of
the land and that business men
who have no intent of wrong-doing
are entitled to the benefit of the
doubt until such time it is shown
in open court that they have inten-
tionally violated the law.
Asks Abuse Be Corrected
eve have come to the conclusion
that under the conditions created by
your deputies it would be impossible
for any laW-abiding citizen or bust
ness man in Indiana to legally en-
gage in the retail sale of beer, wine
and liquor without violating some
provision of the rules and regula-
tons as enforced by your division.
MAY I call to your attention the
fact that if the efforts made by your
deputies to require hotels, if honest,
to hold Federal wholesale permits
in order to do legitimate business
they would disqualify themselves for
retail permit in the state of Indl-
ana.
This is only one of the many
conflicts between our state and the
Federal regulations and the depu-
ties from your office seem to have a
complete formula for how to COM
ply with Federal regulations by
manipulating bookkeeping records,
all of which contributes to the origi-
nal statement that I made in my
letter to you on Oct. 3 that, they
have created condition that will
not cause respect for law and GER
tainly not in keeping with our
American ideals for the legal sale
of beer, wine and liquor under a
permit system

on these matters than the only

whom join in placing this matter
before you. Calling your attention
to the fact that under the Constitu-
ton as citizens they are guaran-
teed the right to petition any de-
partment of the government to COR
rect any abuse that may exist
One downtown druggist was as
sessed $40 a stamp for six coun-
terfeit stamps found on bottles in
his stock, despite his plea that he
bought them in good faith from an
indianapolis wholesaler. Both the
retail and wholesale concern are
reputable establishments.
Several indianapolis hotels are re-
ported to have been assessed various
amounts for minor attractions. One
hotel which prepared cocktails in
quantity for banquet was re-
ported fined because it did not have
a rectifier's permit.
The protest to Mr.. Yellowley
made it plain that the Directing
organizations are not protesting
against enforcement but against the
manner of enforcement.
State, U. S. Laws Conflict
One conflict between the state
and Federal liquor laws has been
responsible for many violations, it is
said. The Federal retail excise fee
permits a retailer to sell up to five
gallons of beer. To sell more than
five gallons he must buy whole
sale stamp.
Yet the state law permits re-
taller to sell 48 pints in one guam
tity and 48 pints nearly are six gal
Ions of beer. The state law limits
the number of wholesalers, so the
retailer who may wish to sell two
cases of beer is caught in the middle
Many beer retailers are reported
to have been fined for selling beer
to large groups which actually was
sold by wholesaler and merely
billed through the retailer.
Another charge brought against
the revenue men is that they have
refused to give receipts for liquor
seized for proofage tests and in
voices taken from retailers books.
Mr.. YelloWley late this summer is
sued a compilation Of Federal laws
about which many retailers and
wholesalers claim they have been
unable to obtain information. How
ever, the agents are reported to
have investigated bookkeeping &C
counts for transactions last year.
They are said to be devoting
special attention to lodge, church
and American Legion organizations
which have taken out temporary
state permits for picnics and special
meetings, but failed, through ignor-
ane Of the Federal laws, to obtain
Federal stamps.
Francis BoWser, new public coun-
selor to the Public Service Com
mission and former assistant u. S..
attorney for the northern district,
said there was mo question but
that enforcement of the law by rev.
enue officers has amounted to per-
Secution in a number of instances"
He cited cases where arrests were
made on technicalities when a warn
ling should have sufficed. Mr.. Bow
ser said he instructed U. S. Com
nlssionerS in his district not to take
cases of this nature.

Senator or Representative, espe-
cially Senator, you will find that
Washington is social rap, and the
traps are those listed above.
Finds indianapolis Friendly
This information comes from
Senator Frederick VanNuys, of In
diana, who is in Indianapolis for
series of conferences and because he
likes to say hello" to people on the
street. indianapolis, he says, is
friendly city, and Washington he
hasn't labelled yet.
When he has to get away from it
ALL Senator VanNuys gets on a rub
berneck bus and has the barker tell
him where things are around the
place. That's relaxation! He goes
to the mint and watches them print
money.
He goes 10 the Congressional Lii
brary and looks at historic docu-
ments that mean lot in the his
tory of the nation. That's the part
of Washington he really likes. he
says.
But teas! Ughl
1t Was Quite A Party
AS member of the Senate For
eign Relations Committee Mr.. Van
Mugs is practically smothered with
invitations from all the embassies.
This sort of thing gets pretty tire
some after while, Mr.. VanNuys
says, especially if you aren't fond of
tea.
AS a matter of fact, vodka is not
a palatable drink SO far as the
Senator is concerned. He recalled
that the Russian embassy tossed a
party for the committee and a few
others, and when they got there
there were cocktails all over the
place.
Then there was an eight-course

World War when the United States
left no stone unturned to encourage
production. Today sugar is drug
on the market. Should the United
States, therefore, favor Cuba, Puerto
Rico and other nearby sources after
the Philippines cut loose. it would
profoundly affect the Filipinos'
standard of living.
Other Products Same
The same can be said for coconut
oil, fiber and other chief products.
Last summers Sakdalista revolt was
due to the beginnings of the pinch.
The fear of japanese aggression
is no less acute than the anxiety
over the economic problem. There
is nothing jingoistic about this.
Nippon's most authoritative spokes-
men openly preach the necessity for
expansion, and the Philippines are
merely a continuation of the same
chain of islands.

PREDICT DOOM
OF NEW RULE
IN PHILIPPINES
Commonwealth Inaugural
ton Beginning, Not End
of Fateful Era.
BY WILLIAM PHILIP SIMMS
Scripps- Howard Foreign Editor

WASHINGTON, Nov. 15.-The in
auguration of the Philippine COM
monwealth today in Manila marked
the beginning, not the end, of one
of the most fateful experiments in
the history Of either the islands or
the United States.
Many friends and foes Of Philip
pine independence fear the expert
ment is foredoomed to failure unless
the economic terms under which
Congress granted freedom are rad
ically altered in favor Of the archi-
pelago.
Here Are Factors
Here are the decisive factors Of
the Tydings -McDuffle law providing
for independence:
/. Beginning today, import quo
tas are to be placed on Philippine
sugar, coconut oil and cordage fiber
chief exports Of the republic-to-be.
Imports in excess Of these quotas are
subject to prevailing rates.
2. Beginning with the sixth year
of the commonwealth, all Philippine
products exported to the United
States are to pay per cent Of the
tariff Each year thereafter the
rate will be boosted another per
cent until the tenth year, when it
Will amount to Is per cent.
3. Ten years from today the COM
monWealth becomes a full-hedged
republic and a foreign country in
every sense Of the word. Accord
ingly, its products will then be sub
iect to the same tariff as the prod
ucts of any other nation.
Doesn't Alter Tariff
The fact that the graduated tariff
imposed during the second half of
the commonwealth, is to be used
for the benefit of the Philippines,
does not alter the fact there is a
tariff where free trade existed be-
fore
The money thus raised is to liqui-
date the bonded debt of the islands,
amounting to approximately SSH
10000. The purpose is to start the
new republic of free of debt and
sever financial entanglements with
the United States. But many doubt
the patient can survive the opera
ton.
AS a result Of free trade between
the United States and the islands,
this country today absorbS some 81
per cent of their exports. In re-
turn, we sell 65 per cent of all they
import. Thus has been created for
them a favorable balance of trade
amounting to about $30,000,000 a
year.
All This Changed
The Tydings McDufTie Act
changes all this. While American
goods will continue to enter the
Philippines duty free, Philippine
products will be subjected to quotas
and tariffs.
At one Of the most tOpsy-turvy
periods in recent international his
tory, politically, financially and eco
nomically the Philippine common
wealth must forego dependence upon
a ready-made free market and find
customers elsewhere abroad.
This will not be easy. Sugar,

Vodka Just Alcohol
I'VE think we are putting on the
dog" the Senator said, when we
spread bit of caviar on a piece
of toast and eat it. Well, they
brought their caviar in bowls as big
as your two fists.
Then. they had eight or 10 wine
glasses all graduated down beside
your plate, and a vodka highball. I
