FBI INTEREST AROUSED

The FBI became interested in
liquor sales last Spring after the
Iowa liquor commission slapped a
15-day suspension on the Century
'Distilling Company of Peoria and
began watching the Michigan OPP
Grafton. Dotsch said.
The Iowa situation came TO light
when Lytton M. Younker of Dies
Moines was arrested for trans
porting illegal liquor. He had 20
cases of whisky in his car and a
.pocketful Of Iowa stamps. The
stamps had serial numbers which
had been issued 10 the Century
.Distillery. Iowas commission
charged the company with gross
negligence and imposed the Sus-
pension, which will cost Century
an estimated $4,000 worth OF
business.
This may happen TO some of
the distillers doing business i'm
Michigan II we find any negli-
gence," DotSch said.
Dotsch said that all stamps is
sued during the last 1S months can
be traced through their serial
numbers. Before that time, they
were unnumbered.

Left Turns
A proposal TO prohibit left turns

A proposal 10 prohibit left turns
on all Detroit main arteries ex-
cept at specifically designated
today was being
studied by d. Grant Mickle, city
traffic engineer.
The proposal was made in the
form OF a resolution passed by
the city traffic committee at its
monthly meeting and calls for
and recommendation by
at the next meeting.
Traffic Judge Thomas +. Maher
the resolution after
pointing out 40 per cent of De-
troit accidents have been caused
by drivers making left turns.
particularly at uncontrolled inter-
sections not protected by traffic
lights"
JUDGE MAKERS PLAN
Under Judge Makers plan. left
turns would be allowed only at
intersections with signs specifi-
cally stating Left Turns Per-
mitted,' as is now done in the
case of right turns against red
lights.
This would cost the city less
than putting up signs at every
corner where left turns are pro-
hibited," he said.
Inspector Fred J. Juergens, d.
rector of traffic, reported TO the
committee $40 accidents during
June resulted from left turns and
800 accidents resulted from the
failure Of drivers TO signal before
making turns.
At the same meeting. the COM
.mittee referred back 10 a SUBJ
committee for further study the
proposed ordinance which would
permit bicycle riding on sidewalks.

SPECIALIZED GROUP

There are no former butchers,
bakers or candlestick makers

makers" machine molders" and
other occupational names less

Strikes At Strikes
BY Representative Harold Knutson
Of Minnesota

Congress is becoming exceeding
ly impatient over the epidemic of
strikes that have broken out in de-
Tense industries, and it feels that
the President should no longer de-
lay doing something about it. 1t
Is pretty generally agreed he has
full power to act and that further
legislation Is not necessary. Even
Democratic MEMBERS of Congress
are beginning to criticize the Pres
ident for his inactivity. REPRE-
sentative e. e. Cox of Georgia, is
one of the most influential Dem
ocrats in the House and whenever
he has anything to say he is al
ways listened to with the closest
attention. On Wednesday of last
week Mr.. Cox took the floor to
make some observations on the
labor situation. He said In part,
'fWe have given and the country
has given the President everything
he has requested with respect to
national defense. We have sup
ported and the country is support
ing him in his defense program,
but as regards the gangsterism
and racketeering in labor at this
time, we have come to the point
where the President himself should
stand up and take a bold, firm
position. CApplause). The time
for soft-pedaling and temporizing
has passed. (Applause). Law and
order is being destroyed in this
country. The defense program is
being sabotaged, and somebody
must be bold enough to stand up
and speak for the country.
1.-THE suggestion has been pend
ing here for some time that Con-
gress should at least in a measure
meet its responsibilities to follow
through on all these tremendous
appropriations that have been
made and see to it that the money
is properly expended, and that the
