BEER BREWING 1 WOULD BOOST 0. S. REVENUES Figures Show Legalizing of Ale Should Cut Cost of Government. By Scrippn-H award ycwspapcr Alliance : WASHINGTON, Oct. 28.—Reports that the Wickersham law enforcement commission may recommend liberalization of the Volstead law to j permit brewing of beer have revived ; interest in the mounting costs of prohibition and in the theory that j beer would reduce the cost of gov- j emment, federal and local. Figures on the total cost of prohibition enforcement vary. In the ; eleven-year period, 1920 to 1931 inclusive, a total of $239,274,478 has been appropriated for the prohibi- j tion bureau and coast guard en- ; forcement activities. To this should be added approximately $75,000,000 for enforcement activities of the department of jus- ; tice and probably $15,000,000 more for the customs service. This makes an approximate total of $239,- , 274,478 for the federal government, j Would Boost Revenues High It does not take into considera- I tion the burdens imposed on states and municipalities, which will increase if the department of justice succeeds in its new policy of having the states and municipalities assume local enforcement, while the government halts the supply at the borders and seeks to prevent large scale distribution. Legalizing beer immediately would j boost federal and local revenues, i Also a larger market for grain! would be created. It would furnish business for factories which for-1 merly manufactured brewing ma- ! chinery; it would furnish additional j markets for coal, increase freight revenues and provide additional employment. It is estimated that approximately $150,000,000 additional in revenues would be received by the federal government. This is exclusive of the taxes which would be collected by various states and local government in license fees. Beer Taxed $3 a Barrel Beer was taxed $3 a barrel in 1918 and in that fiscal year a total of 50,266,216 barrels were consumed, providing a federal revenue of $150,789,648. During the war the beer tax was raised to $6 a barrel, but this was a special wartime revenue. In 1914. the peak year of the brewing industry, when 68,189.473 barrels of beer were manufactured, there was a total of $792,910,000 invested in the industry and $46,767,000 in the malting industry. There were 1,347 brewing and malting establishments employing 77,364 men whose wages totaled $83,378,000. The fuel administration estimated in 1917 that 123.666 carloads of freight were involved in the beer | industry, including coal, brewers’ j materials, machinery, beer in kegs ! and bottles and grains. CHILD WORKERS BUSY AS ADULTS SEEK JOBS Nearly 3,000,000 Boys, Girls Hold Posts, U. S. Bureau Reports. Bu Scriovs-llomard Xctcsvaoer Alliance WASHINGTON, Oct. 28.—As millions of adults roam the streets in search of work there are more than 1.000,000 child workers between 10 and 16 “gainfully employed’’ and nearly twice that number of the ages of 16 and 17 at work. These are estimates of the latest United States labor department children’s bureau bulletin, issued some months ago. Accurate figures on the extent of American child labor will not be available until the 1930 census is completed. The 1920 figures, the bureau asserts, may be taken as a fair estimate, for “the number of permits issued to children in a large number of cities and towns in many different parts of the United States indicate that no wholesale reduction in the number of child workers has taken place in the last ten years, and that the situation probably is substantially the same as in 1920.’*

First Quinine Use to Be Observed by Druggists
Jlu United 1\ ex ST. LOUIS, Mo., Oct. 28—The world’s leading pharmacologists will meet here Oct. 31 and Nov. 1 to commemorate the tercentenary of the first recognized use of quinine. Announcement that plans for the celebration, first conceived during the incandescent light golden jubilee, had been completed was made by George T. Moore, director of Shaw’s Garden, where the ceremonies, extending over a two-day period, will be held. Because it seemed that any one in the tropics would rather have a dose of quinine than an incandescent light globe, Moore and Professor Anton Hbgstad, prominent professor of the St. Louis College of Pharmacy, suggested the celebration. The eagerness with which the idea was accepted

prompted them to go ahead with their plans. The first use of quinine occurred in 1630. The bark was used to cure the malaria of Juan Lopez Canizares, noted Spanish statesman.

U. S. GUARDING AGAINST WINTER RADICAL DRIVE National Guard Generals Asked to Be Ready to Cope With Reds. The following articles, dealing with governmental precautions against possi- ! Me communist demonstrations, is the | second in a series written for the United I Press by Cornelius Vanderbilt Jr. BY CORNELIUS VANDERBILT JR. (Copyright. 1930, by United Press) WASHINGTON, Oct. 28.—The government quietly has prepared against the possibility that Communists or others may attempt to capitalize on the prevalence of unemployment through mass demonstrations this winter. Adjutants general of the National Guard have been asked to be ready to cops with any mass activities giving evidence of subversive propaganda, it was understood. Similar suggestions were made to the Governors of all the states. No Drastic Orders Out So far as can be learned the orders contained nothing that could be called drastic. More precautionary than anything else, they sought to make it clear at" a time when the government is seeking to remedy the unemployment situation through the committee headed by Colonel Arthur j Woods that agitations incited by I paid agents of unrest should be put | down. On the whole, foreign diplomats ! have been, in private conversations, more concerned by the Communist problem in this country than American authorities. And yet the recent utterance by War Secretary Patrick J. Hurley in New York recently was considered significant. Fight Radical Outbreaks Hurley, known to officialdom as a straight-from-the-shoulder speaker, said that had it not been for President Hoover the stock market collapse of a year ago would have resulted in rioting and bloodshed.

The secretary pointed out that half the world was either in open or incipient revolution. With Hurley speaking so frankly it is obvious the government is not oblivious to unrest in other lands or to the possibility, however remote, of unrest in the United States. I have been told by foreigners that Communist propaganda should have its greatest opportunity in the United States this winter. Whether this is true or not, the government is determined to make the opportunity as small as possible.

WIFE SHOOTS SELF Dies After ‘Spat’ With Mate, Society Bootlegger. Quarreling with her husband about a plate she broke, Mrs. Thelma Humble, 26, Apt. 12, at 1450 College avenue, ran into her bedroom and shot herself Monday afternoon. She died in city hospital two hours later. The husband, Ray Humble, “society bootlegger,” and her brother, John Ford, same address, were in the apartment when Mrs. Humble fired the bullet from a .38-caliber automatic pistol into her side. They were released after making statements to police. Humble recently pleaded guilty in federal court to a liquor charge, which was taken under advisement, because he is said to suffer from tuberculosis.

COLD SOON DISAPPEARED WHEN TREATED BY QUICK, EASY METHOD DOCTORS NOW ADVISE Many Here Find Home Use of Hospital Method Superior to Remedies That Cause Sweating and Fumes That Risk Pneumonia by Opening Up Pores. The same method used in hospitals—even in extreme cases—is now relieving colds quickly in vast numbers of Indianapolis homes. For hospital doctors have certified Ayer’s Pectoral for home use as the quickest, safest, and most dependable of different widely used methods tested for head colds, coughs and chest colds.

DOCTOR’S ADVICE ON COLD AVOIDS PNEUMONIA RISK Cold Made Worse By Remedies Which Open Pores-Then Doctor Gave Quick Relief Pleasant Way An entirely new method that ends colds quickly—often in just a few hours —is now prescribed by doctors in numerous hospital cases and is also being used with remarkable success in numbers of Indianapolis homes . E. H. Young, for example, attempted to sweat out has cold by taking hot drinks and other home remedies. But his work made it necessary for him to go out the next morning while the pores of his skin were still open. Asa result, he caught fresh cold and by early afternoon he had developed such a high fever that pneumonia was feared. Acting on the advice of his doctor, then, he started taking a pleasant spoonful of Ayer’s Pectoral every 15 minutes. Instead of ripening' up the pores and risking pneumonia, this hospital certified medication acted on an entirely different principle. Before night the medication had been absorbed by his system, thus checking the cold ‘-wherever congestion had settled. By morning his fever was gone and congestion was clearing up rapidly. He returned to work and iu just a day or so the cold was entirely gone.

A hospital remedy for colds —so pleasant children enjoy taking it—is now being recommended as a result of its outstanding record in
extreme hos p i t a 1 cases, in the private practice of physicians and in home use among numbers of Indianapolis people. Mrs. E. L. Jenkins, for example, was awakened by the se-

vere coughing of her son, Edward, Jr. She immediately got in touch with her doctor who advised double strength doses of Ayer’s Pectoral to relieve the coughing and break up the cold before more serious illness had a chance to develop. The coughing spell was checked almost immediately. In a few minutes the child was sleeping quietly again and bv the next morning congestion had cleared up surprisingly. The doctor's examination the next day showed that the cold and congestion were completely gone and the child was able to return to school without unnecessary lass of time.
AYER’S Cold, ■SM^Coiiqh,Chest Cold
OCT. 28, 1930|
Miss Vivian Stoddart's experience is typical. Examination by her doctor showed that she was running a high temperature and that congestion in her air passages! caused thoracic pain when she attempted to take a deep breath. Almost immediately after her* doctor gave her double strength doses of Ayer's Pectoral she noticed quick relief. Breathing soon became easier, the thoracic pain disappeared and in a few hours her fever was reduced from 101° to normal. The next morning she woke up feeling greatly relieved. Medical examination the next day showed her temperature, pulse and respiration were normal again. A few pleasant doses of Ayer’s Pectoral, the doctor reports, had Reared up her cold. Ayer’s Pectoral Is superior to remedie* which give temporary relief, but open up tile pores and thus risk pneumonia, Ayer's Pectoral does not open the pores. It can be taken with absolute safety—even If one has to he out doors.

END COLD CAUSED BY WETTING FEET ON WAY TO DANCE Indianapolis people no longer feel miserable and needlessly risk pneumonia by neglecting colds. For hospital doctors have made it tempting to end colds promptly by a pleasanti corrective which has been certified as the quickest and surest of different methods tested for head colds, coughs and chest colds. Miss Alice Palmer, for example* started to a recent dance without; her overshoes. While crossing the street to L he car she got her feet soaking wet and felt a cold coming on before the dance was over. Next day her breathing passa~.es were inflamed and congesed wt ’a cold. At the suggestion of her brother, a physician, she started dealing up the cold immediately v,.th small doses of Ayer’s Pectoral every 15 minutes for the first two cr three hours, then once every hear. When she retired early that nig.-u, congestion had started clearing uo and by morning she felt a gr at deal better. At her brothers’ off lee -h.j next day, a thorough stethoscope- xamination showed that her breathing passages were clear again and that the few pleasant doses of Ayer's l’;< - toral had entirely cleared up the c< hi. Ayer’s Pectoral is safer than ! nfc drinks and remedies which cause on# to perspire freely. They are dangerous to use unless one stays in bed while she sweat pores are open. Ayer’s Pectoral does not cause sweating and can bo used with absolute safety even if <no lias to be out doors.
