BEER'S BACKERS : MAKING GRAPE WINEAN ISSUE Force Prohibition Problem to the Front Line Once Again. Bv RAYMOND CLAPPER t 1 tilted Fret* Stiff Orresoondent WASHINGTON, Aug. 11.—The irrepressible prohibition question has forced its way to the front again from the temporary obscurity into which the economic depression threw it. A n effort to get modification of the. Volstead act as an economic relief measure now is bein* waged by anti-prohibition groups. Prohibition is expected to confront the administration, congress, and many candidates in the next campaign in two phases. Both are being agitated with a suden burst of activity. One question is whether the grape industry shall continue to be allowed to market a product and service it in homes even to the final bottling of the resultant sauterne, Claret, Burgundy, or other favored wines. Dry Leader Balked Tffls issue finds Mrs. Mabel WalWillebra ndt, once acclaimed as the Joan of Arc of the drys, now supplying the astute legal brains guiding the chief grape concentrate concern, Fruit Industries, Ltd,, through the legal mazes so successfully that thus far Amos W. w Woodcock, prohibition director, has not even brought a test case against that, company. The other question centers on beer. Appeals are being made to modify the Volstead act to permit up to 4 per cent beer, claimed by wets to be nonintoxicating, as a means of relieving economic depression and adding to federal revenues. These two issues are tied together by some who protest it is unfair to grant virtual government protection to home-wine making while forbidding beer In its promotion report the Wickersham commission held the government was inconsistent in forbidding be*r while financing wine through the federal farm hoard Action Is Considered Senator Morris Sheppard. (Dem., iex.), plans to reintroduce his proposal to strike out section 29 of the Volstead act—under which homemade wines are permitted. Woodcock says unless sales are made from the home an arrest is impossible, and even then it would have to be proved that the wine had intoxicated someone. The marketing organization is immune unless it should be found guilty of ‘ intent’’ to violate the law. which Is difficult to prove, according to Woodcock. “And,” he adds, “you can’t convict a person for violating the spirit of the law.” Representative L. C. Dyer, (Rep., Mo.), who will be chairman of the House judiciary committee, intends to press for a Volstead act amendment to permit light beer. This Is Old, Old Story ttu United Press CHICAGO.

IMAIN STREET GIRLS | GET WILD IDEAS Two Staid lowa Ladies Make Dangerous Purchases in a New Comedy, “As Husbands Go,” Now at English’s. BY WALTER D. HICKMAN WHEN Mam Street women of this country suddenly discover while vacationing in Paris, France, that they have "soui depths” which never appeared in the home town, then there is the devil to pay. Anyway that is what happens to Lucile Lingard and Emmie Sykes of Dubuque, lowa, in Rachel Crothers latest and smartest comedy “As Husbands Go.” ! These two married women, one whose husband still lives and the other having only a young daughter living, go to Paris together and begin to sow a certain type of “mental ' wild oats which reaches the physical stage before it is all over. These two Main Street women find that they have soul depths and certain charms -
which never cropped out on Main j Street. The gardeners in this case were two male money grabbers who ! knew how to stir the depths of the i souls of women only
when said females had large gobs cf money In Paris the small town ladies were quite enchanting as long as they paid the bills and gave promise of spending more. Ronald Derbyshire, the boy friend of Mrs. Lingard’s was so devoted to her that he trails her to lowa. But Lucile was so different in Paris because she was
thousands of miles away from her husband And her husband probably was the best and sanest husband • ever made. Emmie Sykes paid the passage of Hippolitus Lomi to America but; Hippi was no rotter and he stayed ! on Main Street the rest of hiS life ! as the second husband of Emmie. The Arthur Casey Company is giving one of the most sparkling performances of the season. The | tact is the intelligent direction of j the new director, Dan Willoughby Reed, is now becoming apparent. It is important to have the two : right women as the Main Street wives and Reed has it this week j with Beverly Bayne, noted and be- j loved screen star, as Emmie, and, j Yvonne Stebbins as Lucile Lingard. i Miss Bayne knows her theater, j She knows how to use her hands and her eyes. She has the nervous j and excited tempo which is needed. Donald Woods and Jack Storey are cast as the boy friends. Both refrain from making comic strips of these specimens of the male gender. Walter Davis has the difficult role ; of Charles Lingard, the husband of j Lucile. He does a good job with a ! role that could easily ring untrue. ) Others in the cast are Dick Elliott, Mildred Hastings, William j Craigle, Frances Dale and Freddie ! Sherman. Here is the smartest show that j

Casey has given us so far. See it. I( has been beautifully mounted. Now at English's. ana “DIRIGIBLE” IS THE LATEST AIR SPECTACLE “If “Dirigible” was made before : “Hell’s Angels” and “The Dawn Patrol” it would have been a pathfinder in this particular form of spectacular entertainment. But this is not the case. It is just one of the group of adventure stories of the air. I think that the burning dirigible in 'Hell's Angels” is the greatest air episode that has been filmed so far because it did not smack of the studio. I have to consider "Dirigible” as a | product of the theatrical side of the studio. It is just as studio as “Zep- j pelin” (I saw it in New York on the stage) was of the theater. The navy was used to get some of the shots and in many instances it j strikes one as authentic. * The male combatants in this ro- i mance are Jack Holt and Ralph Graves and the formula of their jealousy and fight is not new. Fay Wray is the feminine cause ; of the trouble between the men. \ The most serious objection that I have to the technical side of “Diri- j gible” is the continuity. Now at the Lyric.

death toll in the Cuban revolt reached ten. President Gerardo Machado signed a decree suspending constitutional guarantees. And a state of siege continued in the province of Havana and Pinar Del Rto. The government maintained its rigid military grip on the island. Five more revolutionaries and cne government rural guard were slain in a battle Monday night at Guanabacoa, twelve miles outside Havana. Three rebels and one police lost their lives in earlier outbreaks. The fighting at Guanabacoa occurred when a party of nationalists
-'AUG. 11, 1931
attempting to overthrow the Machado regime marched on the nearby city. A patrol of rural guards attempted to halt the advancing rebels, meager reports indicated, and a sharp skirmish ensued. Five rebels and a corporal of the rural guard were killed. The engagement, the first encounter during the revolt, resulted in President Machado taking prompt action. He issued the decree suspending constitutional guarantees throughout the republic. A French railroad is experimenting with rubber wheels for its rolling stock.
