The most popular method of

six feet above the ground, are
placed eight to 10 feet apart,

good branches which will grow
on either side of the main leader

one pruning is not the answer;
pruning must be a part of each

Pruning is recommended at

Speakeasies Don't Worry Washington:
No Men, No Space, No Liquor, No Soap!
BY DOUGLAS LARSEN
NEA Staff Correspondent

WASHINGTON - The dire
prediction that we'll have a re-
birth of the old rootin' shootin'
speakeasy days as a result OF
Jimmy Byrnes' ban on whoopee
after midnight is just wishful
thinking, according to concen-
sus of official Washington.
Times just amt the same, Of
ficials point out. 1t takes space,
liquor and manpower for a
speakeasy and none of these all
important ingredients is avail
able, they say. Besides, there
too much red tape involved in
setting up even an illegal bust
ness these days.
In the roaring twenties ii was
relatively simple for a bootleg
ger TO peddle his bathtub hooch
in a private den of iniquity. All
he had to do. was find himself
a slightly out-of-the-way place,
put a grilled aperture in the door,
get pug-ugly to open it, pass
out cards and then wait for the
crowd.
FIRE WATER SCARCE
Let's start with OPA's reasons
why there won't be speakeasies.
Well, first, you've got to have
fire water to serve the custom
ers. There's not enough to keep
the retail dealers satisfied and
the distillers don't have enough
to keep the wholesalers happy.
Of course there are ways around
this, but legitimate liquor trade
is so good it's doubtful dealers
would endanger their business
by getting mixed up with the
crooks. AT least that's OPAs line
of thought. How about bootleg
booze? You can't get sugar for
it and WPB says you can't get
equipment to make it or con-
tainers if you could make it.
Skip that hurdle and let's try
to find place to put our speak
easy. What sites we're used dur
ing prohibition? Apartments,
