ent state constitutional provision
which prohibits the manufacture
and sale in Oklahoma of alcoholic
beverages in excess of 3.2% by
weight. In 1910, $40 of the voters
favored retention of this conStitu-
tional provision and in 1886, 500
favored it.
Obviously E. 1847 is not only a
prohibition measure, but it is un-
fair, discriminatory and is an un-
warranted interference with legi-
innate industry.
The advertising of alcoholic
beverages in interstate commerce,
we submit, is in the interest of
temperance because such advertis-
ing encourages consumption of al
cohol beverages at home.
The enactment of S. 1847 would
be a blow to the farmer and to
labor, the greatest beneficiarieS of
the brewing industry.
The enactment of S. 1847 would
result in tremendous losses in tax
revenue to the United States gov
ernment, not millions, but billions
of dollars, and all this at a time
when the federal government is
engaged in deficit spending esti-
mated for the present fiscal year
to be in excess of $4,000, 100000.
With the national debt in excess of
$3.50, ,OOO,OOO,OOO the government
will borrow and spend in this fiscal
year over $5,0O0,000,000 more than
it will receive in tax revenue from
the people of the United States.
Similar losses in tax, revenue
will result to state governments,
many of which appropriate their
taxes on alcoholic beverages for
old age pensions and salaries of
school teachers.
Attached is an exhibit marked
"a" which indicates in detail what
in our opinion will be the far
reaching and serious effects of the
enactment of S. 1847 upon the
brewing industry and its allied in
dustries, the loss in employment to
labor, the loss of markets to the
farmer and the losses in excise and
income taxes to the federal and
state governments. In order to
conserve the time of this commit
tee I shall not attempt to read this
exhibit but will merely incorpo-
rate it by reference in my remarks
and express the hope that you
gentlemen will give it your
thoughtful consideration.
In commencing this exhibit to

Tart Relish Made
From Leftover Beets

Leftover beets are no problem
when they're made into a tangy
relish that is quick and easy to
prepare. In fact the relish can be
cooked and put away in just about
the length of time it takes to do
the dinner dishes.
Cook the beet relish in a sauce
pan and store it in an enameled re-
frigerator container.

PRIZE OF GAME BIRDS

Some fine autumn day when you
are strolling through the woods do
not be too surprised when the quiet
of the woodland is suddenly brok-
en- by a loud but pleasing drum-
ming sound. You will probably
stop and turn your head and lis
ten, and then, as suddenly as it
started it will die away and stop.
Of one thing you can be sure. You
have heard the drum beat of the
RIffed Grouse, one of Americas
most beautiful and sought after
game birds and the only one who
makes his presence known in the
woodland by this strange and un-
usual noise.
The Ruffed Grouse may be found
in most parts of the Eastern Unit
ed States from Minnesota, Michi-
gan, southern New York and
southern Vermont south to eastern
Kansas, Northern Arkansas, Tenn
essee, and Virginia, and in the AL
Iegheny Mountain region to north
'ern Georgia.
He is known as the partridge Of
the northern woods, the pheasant
Of the South and last but by no
means least the prince Of Ameri-
can game birds.
He is generally tan in color and
when making his drumming sound
which he does with his wings, he
has fine collar of darker feath-
.ers which stand out from his neck
Because he is strong, he can easily
live in the northern winter. His
wings are strong and can carry
him great distances with most un
usual speed. He is clever and more
often than not, he can hide or get
away from both hunters and bird
dogs. The Ruffed Grouse, the Ma

THE HEALTH DEPARTMENT is

THE HEALTH DEPARTMENT is be-
ginning to win its fight with
venereal disease here. But now it's faced
with a new threat-the increase in VD
that always comes in the wake of a
national emergency.
Washington is particularly vulnerable
in this respect. A shifting. increasing
population brings on a high VD rate.
Thousands of civilian workers and serv-
ice personnel are slated to move here.
The Health Departments bureau of
venereal diseases is bracing itself for an
increased work load.
At the moment, the VD situation is
the best it's been since the beginning of
World War II. An education and treat
ment campaign by the bureau has
helped knock down syphilis, in the early
stages, to less than half what it was in
the peak year of 1916. The gonorrhea
rate has dropped for the first time since
1941.
This situation may change soon. The
VD bureau is more prepared, however,
than it was at the beginning of World
War II. staff of field workers was
trained during the war 1t was halved
at the end of the war. but it could be
doubled quickly again If sufficient funds
are granted.
The bureaus anti-VD campaign,
which is going full blast, will keep up
the pace, says DR.. S. Ross Taggart, head
of the bureau. The purpose of the cam
paign is to get people to go to the Health
Departments treatment centers and
simply take blood test to see If they
have VD. It's that simple. Treatment
is just as simple.
It is now an actual fact that gonorrhea
can be treated more effectively than the
common cold. Shot of penicillin can
knock it out in day or two. Syphilis
in its early stages can be cured within
two weeks. The treatment centers are
at Gallinger and Freedmen's Hospitals,
and at the Polk Health Center, Seventh
and P streets NV.
If every person in the District would
report for blood test, VD could be wiped
out. But they won't.
So the bureau has sent workers into
the homes to discover VD cases and

are different from anything heard in the
city
One has to get used to them. This
seems impossible, but it always happens
one does become used to them; in fact
one misses them, later on.
This is the good result of interest. By
becoming interested in the birds and
the other living creatures in the suburbs,
one in time manages to gather together
an entirely new philosophy of daily liv-
ing.
In this good result. the mocker plays
his part.
Usually he is stimulated to singing by
bright night. often with full moon.
But the moon is not really necessary
He is doing what comes naturally. and
sings, no doubt, because of his lady fair
and his children in the nest.
