One Merchant Cuts Cup Os Coffee To One Cent For Day •INDIANAPOLIS UP — A merchant cut dime-a-cup coffee to a penny but attracted no more busirriss—just more-coffee-drinking by his regular customers. So today, lie said, he will push the price back up to a nickel. James Summerville, manager of the Bassett Drug Store, the price of a cup of coffee was boosted to 10 cents Monday because the wholesale price of coffee went up. To “liven things up,” he dropped it to three cents Thursday morning and to one cent at noon. The Barfoizon Case, across the street, followed suit. The case sold three-cent-a-cup coffee. It was free with meals. Another restaurant owner was unhappy. Said he: “They must be crazy. I pay >1.03 for the stuff." Summerville, who paid 98 cents a pound, saidj “It'll prooaoiy go .back up to a nickel today. It’s not causing much excitement. The usual customers are jupt drinking more.” If you have sometning to sen or rooms for rent, try a Democrat Want Add. It brings result®. . _ -■ ■

Ponders Legality Os Drunkometer New York Attorney Fights Conviction NEW YORK, UP — A Manhattan magistrate pondered today the constitutionality of the drunkofteteb, whose nationwide bid to replace the "walk the white line” test for drunken drivers has been challenged by an indignant victim of its scientific accuracy. Magistrate Peter M. Horn, reserved decision Thursday on New York s first drunken driving case based on evidence obtained by the drunkometer, a chemical testing “contraption” that measures the amount "of alcohol on the human breath. Horn said he would take into consideration that counsel for the defendant, wire manufacturer Henrv Kovacik. asked that the intoxication charge be dismissed on the grounds that the drunkometer test is unconstitutional. 12 The defense attorney said that to force a driver to breathe into the apparatus was, in effect, forcing him to tesittfy against himself in violation of tjie fifth amendment. ; New York police have been testing a drunkometer at a midtown station house for the past two months. Last Tuesday three motorists — the first to plead guilty on evidence of the drunkometer —■ were deprived of their driver's licenses and given stiff fines or workhouse terms. State and local officials are so pleased with the drunkometer that they called Its inventor. Dr. Rolla N. Harger, to New York t rom In dianapolis to strengthen the prose--cutton in the current test case. Harger, a professor of biochemistry and toxicology at the Indiana school of medicine, testified fbr seven hours to the efficacy of his brainchild in drunken driving ca < -e«. State police in Indiana, one of the 25 states where drunkometers are either widely used or have been adopted by taw. reported convictions in 97 percent of the 2.400 prosecutions based on drnnkometer evidence in 1952, Harger said.
