The fact that we see women to- pay standing at bars is causing no end of agitation in every state that pas legalized the sale of liquor, beer pr wine" 1t is Q speakeasy habit which has it's origin in the days of prohibition
 "A number of states in the union nave banned women entirely from entering places in which alcoholic beverages are dispensed by the prmk. Other states do not allow Women to stand at the bar."
 c. E. of L.
 Labor has already introduced an amendment to the legislature asking Fhat women be prohibited from Standing at any bar.
 Administrator W. s. Alexander of the Federal Alcohol Administration En nationwide statement concur red with MT. Ryan's plan to pro- hibit women from drinking at the bar. MT. Alexander's statement said n part:
 The evils of which the public complains have, it seems, largely grown up around the taproom and tavern," said Alexander. There we hnd a scene that is entirely new in American Life-women and young girls drinking at the bar, women hnd young girls soliciting trade, and women and young girls serving cus- Eomers.
 This is abhorrent to the moral EenSe of the public. and I fear if it IS not corrected will be visited with
 terrible punishment"
 Minor Changes
 The session of the legislature en- 7olving proposals to change the present. liquor control act are in for , stormy session with a great pos- Sibility that there will be only minor changes such as giving the liquor control commission more discretion ary power and changing the system bf collecting the present sales tax as applied to the sale of alcoholic bev- srages so that the tax would be col- ected at the source.
 It is safe to say that the Liquor Control Act about to be enacted by Ehe legislature will not meet with popular approval with the result that two years hence, the laws will again be one of the major argu. nents in the legislature.
 ' predict that the judiciary com- nittee will report favorably on al- owing men to stand at a bar but prohibiting women, MT. Ryan said today"
 Other proposals which MT. Ryan haS before the general assembly hsks for a blood test of persons sus- Pected of driving under the influ- ence of liquor"
 "The test of the blood stream to Disclose the arnoulnt of alcohol in the blood would be simple, a mere bin prick, is sufficient to make the test. The analysis of the blood would be absolute and each police agency n the state would be properly equipped to make the test. MT. Ryan said. Today, because of the conflicting testimony of physicians D doubt is created in the mind of the court with the result that the accused, many times perhaps guilty, is freed to once again go on to our

ROOSEVELT TALKS
 WITH LA CUARDIA

New York, Nov. 5.-(UP) Mayor F. H. La Guardia refused today to discuss his 29-minute visit with President Roosevelt yesterday, which occurred two days after the downfall of Tammany Hall as g power in New York city politics.
 The president stopped at his town house during his journey to Wash- ington from his temporary White House at Hyde Park, N. Y, and con- ferred with La Guardia, Federal Re- lief Administrator Harry L. Hopkins and Postmaster General James A. Farley.
 Although La Guardia was re-elect- ed on a Republican American Labor Party-Fusion ticket, he has always been regarded as new dealer, and it was believed in some quarters that the president wanted to head off third party talk and keep the mayor in line until his own 194O plans are definite.
 MT. Roosevelt refrained through the mayoralty campaign from show ing any interest in Jeremiah T. Mahoney, candidate of the Tam many and regular Democratic or ganizations, although Mahoney had the active support of Farley, Gov. Herbert H. Lehman and U. s. Sera- tor Robert F. Wagner. It was said that he was not disturbed by Ma honey's overwhelming defeat.

 NOT BADLY HURT

total hit-and-run cases in this city to four in less than a month. Two of the crimes are believed to be solved, and police are working dili- gently toward a solution of the other two.
 Up to press time today no trace of the driver responsible for the in- juries to MT. Schuster had been re- ported by police. One of the witness es of the accident said that the car, believed to be convertable coupe or roadster, with canvas top, stopped after striking the victim, waited for second, then pulled abruptly away, and turned hurriedly into Macauley avenue, according to police.
 SchustGr Is Lucky
 Of the four lit and-run victims in this vicinity, MT. Schuster is the only one who apparently has not been fatally injured. The other three died of their hurts. He has suffered severe laceration of the right knee, fractures of three ribs, and lacera- VAbilp uAlNA ubI uOlOllO OL bLlG AlGul, luCC and hands, in addition to nervous shock.
 Robert Kelley, IA, of 563 Wolcott road and Miss Marie Pelletier, of 560 Wolcot. rtreet, were the two wit neSses questioned by police after Mrs, Earl Kelley notified them of the &C., cident by telephone. Sergeant Joseph McEvoy and Patrolman Edward Sul- livan, together with Motor Patrol men John Deeley, John Murphy and Eugene Doherty answered the alarm. Within few minutes every patrol had been notified by police radio to be on the lookout for the skip vehicle
 Able to Walk
 Schuster was brought to the hos pital by Earl Kelley of 563 Wolcott street and William Kulmann of 45l Wolcott street, He was able to walk from the car to the emergency room of the hospital, with their assistance.
 The injured man had left his home to board bus for the center, and was waiting near gasoline station when the car struck him. One of the witnesses, Miss Pelletier had passed him on the road, and spoken to him, as she walked to her home. She proceeded about 30 feet past him when she said she heard the squeal of brakes and saw the car stop, then start abruptly aud speed away. Skid marks for more than 20 feet were found on the scene, according to Sergeant Charles McWeeney, who investigated today.
 While the Unikas- -Balcunas hit and run case was solved by police with only fragments of a head light to work on, they now have practical ly the complete lens from the car which struck MT. Schuster.
 Kelley Boy Near Scene
 The Kelley boy was near to the scene and came upon MT. Schuster shortly after he was struck. He im- mediately ran to his home and called his parents. When the latter reached the scene Mr. Schuster was on his feet, in dazed condition. The neighbors took him to the hospital, where he is yet under treatment.
 Working on the clues provided by the witnesses, and also on the brok- en head light lense, which plainly slows tSe make, patent and serial number, the police believe they have substantial chances for breaking the case.

PROMINENT NAH
 LEADER SUICIDE

Prague, Czechoslovakia, Nov. D. (UP)-Heinz Rutha, one of the most prominent of Nazi leaders in the German area of Czechoslovakia, has committed suicide in his jail cell nounced today. It was expected that at Boehmisch-L -Leipa, 1t was an- new flare of anger against Czecho- slovakia in Nazi Germany would re- suit.
 Rutha was the foreign political expert of the Czechoslovak Nazi party. He had been sent frequently on missions to London and Geneva to state the viewpoint of Nazi Ger mans living under Czechoslovak rule.
 Rutha and l5 other Nazis were arrested at Neichenberg, October T, on charges of homosexual practices. The arrests, and the charge, started the current bad feeling between Czechoslovakia and Germany.
 Today 1t was announced that prison guards had found Rutha this morning, hanging in his cell from a garter. He was awaiting trial.
