U. S. UNLIKELY TO MOVE FOR DRY EMBASSIES Bad Precedent Is Seen in Any Action to Curb Diplomats. By I'nitrd Pn ? WASHINGTON. May 27—The statement of Sir Esme Howard. British ambassador and dean of the 1 diplomatic corps, that he -would fa-j vor giving up diplomatic liquor j should this government request it., j has encouraged some members of congress to .seek action to this end. However, it is understood in administration quarters that the White j House and state department would be reluctant to make any suggestion , that, diplomats observe the prohibition laws. Senator Blease. iDem., S. C.' who has three bills on the subject of' diplomatic liquor pending in congress, said today he would ask action at the regular session of congress next fall. Others Favor Action Some others, though not so persistent as Blease. favor an expression of opinion in congress, believing the example of the diplomatic corps has some effect in encouraging wet sentiment. Conflicting Views are expressed among diplomats as to their attitude j toward the United States prohibition j Jaw. All diplomats agree that no step : should be taken which would ; jeopardize the well-established in- 1 ternationa! principle of diplomatic immunity, but a few feel that the embassies and legations might voluntarily, on their own initiative, accept a "dry” status as a mark of respect for American institutions. This minority opinion rests upon j the fact that diplomats have many rights which they do not. necessarily make use of. and are immune from j various laws which they would not j presume to violate, as for example j traffic regulations. The more general opin'on. how- ' ever, is that, the present status is j in accord with general international I practice of immunizing diplomats from domestic laws, and that any j relaxation of the principle involved | flight establish a bad precedent. ] which might for example con- j ceivably be invoked n some conn- j tries in religious questions. Precedent Leans Other Way Diplomatic students of affairs ] pointed out that the United States i government throughout its history j has used its influence to strengthen the principle of diplomatic imrnin- : ity, and consider it to the theoreti- ' cal advantage of this country to avoid any interference with the internal conduct of foreign diplomatic j establishments. They point out that the United ’ States has a great number of diplo- ': mafic establishments with large j personnel abroad, and could least j afford to set a precedent in reduc- j ing diplomatic freedom of action, j The United States has abroad j many special agents of commerce, agriculture and treasury depart- ! ments who, although not entitled to diplomatic immunity, nevertheless are accorded many special privileges in some countries. Any congressional law or even resolution seeking to make embassies and legations dry would encounter resentment; a tactful approach from administration officials, which is not. expected, probably would be considered on its merits, but with little prospect of general response until many of the diplomats had communicated with Their respective governments. Lincoln - * Friend Speaks J 5 */ i r * / Prn* LINCOLN CITY. Tod.. May 27—A friend of Abraham Lincoln made an j address at the third annual Nancy ; Hanks Lincoln memorial serveies. ; held here Sunday at the grave of j the Great Emancipator's mother, j The friend was Colonel James S. j Wright.

B;i ’lin’fii Special CHICAGO), May 27.—Agricultural implement -corporation profits in 1928 showed greater gains than those made in the automobile industry, according to announcement today by Milton W. Anderson, president of the United Tractor and Equipment Corporation. Farm machinery manufacturers’ profits increased 25 per cent over 1927. Motor car makers’ gains were 18.4 per ; cent. “Every indication is that 1929 will surpass 1928. so far as the farming field is concerned.” said President Anderson. ‘‘The outlook never was so promising for the increase of tractor farming and this means a similarly sharp increase in the use ; of all auxiliary implements and appliances.”

U. S. TREASURY TO ISSUE NEW SILLS IN JULY Public Eager to View First of Small-Sized Currency. j By l titled Prcg* WASHINGTON. May 27.—Seven hundred millions in new small-sized currency’ will be issued to the public through the Federal Reserve banks by the treasury sometime early in July. Printing of the new dollar bills, which are designed to make more difficult the way of the counterfeiter, has beefh under way at the bureau of printing and engraving for some months. While the demand for the "first edition” of the new sized bills is pressing, the treasury will play no favorites in their distribution. The total allotment will be divided equally among the banks on the treasury's list, and bankers will be asked to counsel their customers to be patient. Samples to Be Shown In order to educate the public in | advance on the exact appearance of the new bills, samples will be distributed to banks throughout the country for display. Other advertising methods to acquaint the public with the new currency is I planned. The distinctive feature of the new currency is the picture cn the front of each different denomination. Backs of all bills of the same denomination will be identical, thus reducing the number of backs which the government must print and protect from counterfeiters. W r ith issuance of the new currency, the familiar "gold-backs” will disappear, as gold certificates will no | longer have the yellow back of the I past. j Raising of the new bills is made almost impossible because each denomination has a, distinctive portrait of its own. Distinctive Portraits For instance, a $5 bill always will have the portrait of Lincoln on its face and the Lincoln memorial on its back. Amy one seeing those characteristics immediately would recognize it as a $5 bill, regardless of the numerals. “ In addition to being smaller and, therefore, easier to handle and fit into one’s wallet, the new currency is considerably less ornate and comprises many fewer different designs than the old. This would facilitate the government’s effort to stop counterfeiting. While the dollar bills now in use will always be a valid obligation on the government, treasurey experts predict the present currency will .be out of general circulation by next January. WOMEN LOSE JEWELRY Watch Worth $BO and ss*s Diamond Pin Reported Missing. Loss of a jeyeled wrist watch, valued at SBOO in Monument circle Saturday night was reported to police by Mrs. H. M. Bemin, visiting at 723 Northview avenue. Mrs. George L. Horton. 3833 North Meridian street, asked police to recover a diamond bar pin worth $575, which she lost at Meridian and Washington streets Saturday night.

MEXICO CITY GOES DRY But It’s Water Supply That Gives Out, Not the Liquor. ;;■/ r nil rtf Preis MEXICO CITY, May 27.—This modem capital had to resort to ancient methods of supplying itseff with water over the week-end as a result of a breakdown in the central pumping plant. For forty-eight hours the entire city was without the regular water supply. The streets yesterday were filled with thousands of persons carrying buckets to and from the few available sources. , Not in years have so many buckets been seen in Mexico City and not in years have so many dignified gentlemen been forced to tote their own water supply from the wells to their homes. 50.000 POPPIES SOLD More than 50.000 poppies were sold by the American Legion auxiliary in Indianapolis Saturday, according to Mrs. Claire P. Thurston, secretary of the Indiana department of the auxiliary. Proceeds will be used for welfare work among disabled veterans.
