BEER DEALERS DISPUTE OVER KEG BEER PRICE Many Believe No Profit Will Be Found in Stein Under 10 Cents. Although no’ a drop of draught beer has b*en tapped in the city, beer merchants today are debating with themselves and wrangling over passible prices, profits and losses. Fegr that a number of "chiselers” will invade the field when keg oeer is permitted has aligned the regular dealers in a clique to uphold price standards Beer retailers said they expected the thirty -one -ga 1 lon barrel of beer to sell for not less than S2O This means that the* lowest possible price for a small stein of beer, which probably will be half foam and half beer, will be 10 cents. However from the attitude that bona fide dealers are taking, they believe the get-rich-quick boys will offer a larger stein for the same price or less. Think Fad Will Be Short This, thev say will result in customers of these places being served warm beer and driving the regular beer drinkers back to the bottled product Ons dealer predicted that the keg beer fad will end within 'hirty days and the customers again will be demanding bottled beer I' is the general plan of local retailers to sell a ten or twelve-ounce stem for 10 cents Some will not even attempt to offer a smaller glass for a nickel They claim that bv using the thirty-one-gallon barrels there can be no waste in serving the product at the bar. Need Experienced Barmen Some places which will have girls and young men operating their taps will find that there is absolutely no profit in keg beer.' one downtown draW said. The customer will get half beer and half foam, and the man behind the bar who wastes any, soon will be looking for work The days when the bartender filled the stein to the top scraped It off and then offered to fill it again after the foam died down, are gone forever Dealers who have experienced barmen behind the rail will know that there is a chance for profit, because those men won t waste any. I argr Steins in Louisville Panic was thrown into some of the brew merchants when they learned that, in Louisville, a group of cut-price retailers are offering a 26-ounce stein for 10 cents. They said they expected some local retailers, in an attempt to profit from the early flood of customers, to make similar offers. The beer drinker today is getting a 12 fluid nuncf bottle for 10 or 15 rents. When he sits down in a case for his beer he receives an eightounce glass, which he has- the opportunity to refill, partly. When keg beer comes, the dealers say. there will be no refill without more money and that will tend to "cool'' the ardent drinker.

Nothing w'h'Us the lagging appetites so much as food served out of doors. When your family refuses to eat these hot days, try serving a few al fresco meals. Have simple furniture that wont get ruined by rain. Don't take your very best rhina and linen out in the yard for picnic meals. Tablecloths of some oilcloth variety are best. They won t show spots and they save laundry. You simply wipe them off with a damp cloth.

Howdy, John Mine Union Head Never Takes Chance on Not Being Recognized.

By United Press VT7ASHINGTON. Aug 11.— ’ ~ Blackhaired John L. Lewis, president of the United Mine Workers of America, and veteran of bitter interunion fights as well as scores of mine strikes, is known from one end of the coal belt to the other, but he never takes a chance on not being recognized. He stood up to speak at the second day of coal code hearings. In his hand was a bulky address, running about 8.000 words. Deputy Administrator Simpson, presiding, introduced him simply. "We will next hear John L. Lewis, president of the United Mine Workers,” Simpson said. Lewis came forward. He looked at the stenographer, then at the large audience of operators and unionists. He stuck his chin out and spoke: "My name is Lewis—John L.” Then he methodically flipped the cover of his manuscript and began reading.

LOWER WAGES IN SOUTH ARE NRA PROBLEM Industrial Peace Plan Is Threatened Over Proposals. BY RUTH FINNEY Time* Special Writer WASHINGTON. Aug. 11.—The Mason and Dixon line, dividing the United States into northern and southern wage groups, threatens the industrial peace of the country today as directly as it threatened the general peace in 1360. Hearings now in progress on the coal code have brought this into sharp relief. But the problem of competition between north and south on different wage scales has come before the recovery administration in connection with nearly every industry to present a code so far. In the cotton textile Industry, first to present a code, the administration permitted the south to pay $1 a week less to its lowest paid workers than northern mills. This precedent, however has not satisfied the many groups contending that the principle of a differential is unsound, and the decision is going to have to be made over again in connection with coal, steel, lumber. hosiery and other less basic industries Frank Taplin, Cleveland coal operator with minps in both the north and south told the recovery administration bt the coal hearings Thursday that records kept by his own companies show that living costs are often greater in the south than in the north. John L. Lewis, president of the United Mine Workers, said the same

thing in his address at the coal hearing, and presented extensive figures to back up the statement. At the same time. Rose Schneiderman member of the labor advisory board, was arguing along simijar lines at hearings on a code for the hosiery industry. When the NRA started its work, few figures were available for consideration in connection with this problem As more business men and workers conclude that fair competition requires one level of wages for the country, more extended arguments are being made on the subject, and it is growing constantly more controversial. Taplirr explained the greater co6t of food to southern workers by the fact that southern company stores are located as a rule in isolated communities, where circumstances conspire with employers to force workers to patronize them In northern communities, he said, company stores usually have to compete with chain groceries. Climatic conditions, efficiency of southern workers. Negroes, and longer freight hauls all complicate the problem of competing northern and southern industries. Lewis declared that bureau of labor statistics figures of food costs, weighted according to the importance of each item in the working family's budget, gave an average cost for fifty-one cities of $251.47 for a year's food. For thirteen southern cities the average cost was $251.65. As to rents. Lewis' figures showed that average rent per room in ninety-two cities was $33 60 in the south. $32.24 in the north and $39 30 in the west.

' Well I guess the President's taking care of them." replied Roper, unmoved ’ The office is not on the department list Switchboard operators never heard of either professor. But they have been there, and often. There could have been plenty of speculation as to what the two discussed with the President. Rogers for example has written books about "Stock Speculation and the Monev Market."
