The sweeping wet| victory in the :lection means
a definite loosening of the prohibiticew barrier even
without waiting for ‘any changes in the laws. All’
the sopping-wet citias, which have always more or
less ignored the prohibition law .so far as thoir}
Jocal police were corrcerned, reacted immediately. |
Ti 'such cities, many Citizens got'their beer right
atonig without much trouble before the election.
Afterward there was ecven less trouble. “Nullifica
tion” was given a big push by the “mandate of the
]fi“jp}e" on November 8.
‘Mayor Anton Cermak of Chicago (which has
always been dripping wet) was quoted as saying,
“@hicago brewers need not wait for the repeal of
gpgnarch and teizure act. The police will not en-
Pee it as far as beer is concerned.” Cermak later,
however, addressed city council, saying, “The first
negessary action is to repeal the search and seiz
g&]“fit . . . the state will then be ready to abide
f;w;hat Congress does.” 5
: ‘M confliet between these statements attributed
;Wm&k is typical of the confusion in which all
oVerwhelmingly wet communities found them
;,‘i.fi-And the practical result was an immediate
Jetedown of all dry barriers.
,m vied with each other to get through their
~coyr repeal of ordinances governing local® en
forcement of the dry laws, and even former saloon
‘"w lgvs which will be ready whenever Con
_gress acts. /
ga Typ&dal was that introduced by former -saloon
keeper Alderman ‘Bath-House John” Coughlin of
Chicago. “I don’'t :ee why we should wait for ul
change in national prohibition laws, as they don't
mean anything here any more,” Coughlin said.
Rumors that national prohibition enforcement
~iilbf%:!les had quietly passed the word to “lay oft
beer” were quickly denied. But it was obvious to
"mbody that the reduced federal prohibition
forces now available can not begin to cope with the
mx“ situation in the great cities without at loastl
”iwearance of co-operation from local police. »
" Though no immediate change in the status of
“Hard liquors” has even been proposed, bootleggers
ere encouraged to bolder measures by the mere
va‘ifififi"of the election, and plans were immediately
in effect to flood the eountry with liquor by
Christmas as it has not been flooded for 13 years.
%fl;‘ng of the national prohibition laws by wet
‘_‘ ¢ "\e'speciull)' as regards beer,’ is nothipg new.
The urban American never really has been without
° The last estimate made of beer consumption un
‘ « prohibition is that of the Prohibition Bureau
for the fiscal year 1930—683,032,000 gallons. The
‘estimate for the .same year by the Association
iwngt the Prohibiticn Amendment was 790,000,000
‘gallons costing $395,000,000 at 50 cents a gallon.
Same figure these as high as $1.20 a gallon, at
which rate we would be spending almost as much
for beer now as we did in 1914 for all liquors, sl,-
635.048.034.
. Nobody knows how much of this was produced
by bootleggers. and how much in cellars for home
bo'nsumption, but nearly everyone's personal experi
ence with the concoctions of his neighbors will
show that a good deal is homemade, The reasons
for are two:
| m there is almost mo chance of the govern
rno’l ‘ever stopping home brewing, illegal or mnot.
It {8 simply nupossible to :tation a federal agent
J&,.{WB‘}' home, and short of that there is no prac
tical 'why to prevent a man from making any
_brewing experiments in his own home that he
\fio‘@!ej. 'so long as he doesn't peddle it.
- Second, beer of a sort is so easy to make that
anybedy can do it with fair success. And there is
plenty of tradition behind that action. A traveler
Ҥn_Virginia in 1649 reported that the colony had
“gix public brew-houses; but most brew their own
beer, strong, and good.” . e e

48 checked at the proper point by kiln drying. The

iwater into a gruel-like liguid, and heated. Some

‘added. The “mash” is drained from'the bottom" of

i% Until the yeast is added, the wort is non-alcoholic,
prohibition laws haven’t heen able to touch it.
o 0 some breweries make beer right up to the point
£ of adding yeast. Then they peddle the wort. Any
¢ one can buy legal wort, add yeast, and.await beer.
: "*This business has been quietly growing. Curiously
pough, it is not permitted to breweries licensed

l DOLLY GANN AND “PRINCESS” |
| ALICE
' The election of Roosevelt and Garner
(will, at least, relieve an embarrassing Sit-i
Juation which has existed in Washington
'{for the past four years—that of the rival
|between Dolly -Gann, sister of Vice Presi
|dent Curtis, and “Princess” Alice Roose-!
ivelt Longworth. Prior to the death of her’
husband, Nick Longworth, the “Princess”
(was an aspirant for the leadership of
Washington official society, but Dolly
[Gann, sister of the vice-president claimed
the night of that title, and thereby hangs a
tale of woe that has never been irconed
out by the social set. After much sparring
between these fashionable and popular;
ladies, Dolly took the lead and for the
past ‘three years she has claimed the right
{ot seniority over Alice on the grounds that
her brother was vice-president and thel
presiding officer of the senate. Now, how
ever, these ladies should forgive and for-‘
get any unpleasantness that may have
arisen in the days when they were both
prominent in society of the Capitol City.
Some time ago, ‘“Princess’” Alice was elim
inated through the death of her huskand.
Now Dolly will be eliminated through the
process of defeat of her brother, Vice-
President Curtis.
Settlement of social differences and
lead.rships are sometimes complicated
problems that are hard to solve, as in this
case, a death and a defeat was necessary
in order to satisfy the contending parties,
Dolly and Alice.
SENATOR WALTER F. GEORGE
The name of Senator Walter F. George
has been suggested in connection with the
Democratic leader of the Senate when the
Democratic administration takes over the
reins of the government on March 4, 1933.
The suggestion has met with general
favor among the Democratic leaders and
senators throughout the country, and it is
expected that Senator Robinson, now the
Dem cratic leader of the senate, will con
cur in what appears to be a popularmove
ment.
Since entering the senate, Judge George
has been recognized as one of the ablest
members of that august body. His rare
attainments and superqualities for leader
ship have stamped him a statesman of un
usual ability and the most outstanding
member of his party in the senate.
Georgians would be proud of his recog
nition and elevation to the honorable posi
tion of leader of the Democratic side of
the senate. While Senator George has
made no comment on the suggestion, yet
it is understood that his friends in the
senate are working actively to Dbring
tabout his election to the leadership after
‘next March.
As a statesman and leader, he has made
his way to the foremost rank in the high
ost council of the nation. The Democratic
senators will make no mistake in selecting
him as their leader during the four years
of Democratic administration presided
cver by Governor Roosevelt, who at that
time will be the president of the United
States. ' ;
THE HUNGER MARCHERS
Representatives of the Commurnist or
ganization in this country have planned a
trek to the White House to be present
when congress opens on December 4th. It
iz estimated and alleged that there will be
10,000 demonstrators in this socalled
“hunger march”. In speaking of the pur
pose of the marchers, Herbert Benjamin,
national secretary, said: “We have this
organized orn a nationai basis. ' The work
lers are tired of unemployment and
lhunger. They are aetermined to obtain re
lief from Congress’”. Tt is stated that ore
regiment from the Pacific coast already is
on the march and others will start from a
number of the <arge cities within the next
few weeks.
| One of the demands that will be placed
upon Congress is for fifty dollars cash
winter relief from the feaeral government
for each unemploved worker to supple
ment local relief. Besides, a child march
ing delegation will be staged in timc to
reach Washington on Thanksgiving Day.
.I-n fact, the plan of the Communists is to
coerce President Hoover and Congress to
recognize them financially and with sus
tenance for as long a time as thev desire
(to camp in and around the Capitol.
Such action on the part of these Com
munists should be repulsed effectively,
even though it requires the use of arms to
bring about their exit from the seat of the
government. Demonstrations by a lawless
element should not be tolerated by the of
ficers, but drastic action should be iaken
to suppress such lawlessness as i typical
lof the Communist element. .
When the soldier boys camped in and
around Washington, demanding <that
which they were entitled to, President
’Hoover ordered the army out and drove
from the borders of that city men who had
protected this nation and the homes or our
people from thé invasion of foreign armies
of unfriendly nations, during the World
War. The same men who were driven from
the Capitol of their own country by the
use of shot and shell, retired from the
scene with their hats in their hands, bow
ing a farewell to their government which
they had protected and from which they
had a right to expect respectful and cor
dial welcome. Now to permit an invasion
by an army of Communits, Bolsheviks and
Reds, without repulsing them with all the
resources of our armies, will be blot on
the nation and a disgrace to the decency
of a self respecting government.

A Little of Ever\/thing,
Not Much of Anything
BY mOWE
The Savannah Press deplores
that fact that Georgia has
never had a SoeMm';y of the
Navy, and cite§ a number of
states in the Jouth that have
had more than one. Comment
ing, the Press, says: Ao
“Georgia has never-had-a Secre
tary of the Navy, Alabama has
had one, Hillery A. Herbert, who
was appointed by President Cleve
land. South Carolina has had one;
Paul Hamilton, who was - appoint
ed by President * Madison, - and
North Carolina has had five” |
Cheer up—“ Bill Bifflem”, it is
not too late for Georgia to
come in on a cabinet’s place,
and maybe it will be the office
of Secretary of the Navy.
| Confidential: “Billy” S utlli ve,
Georgia will have a Secretary of
the Navy when Governor Roose
velt is inaugurated president of
the United States. It may be the
first time, -but we are sure it will
be announced at the proper mo
ment, and that before March 4th.
That information came to us, not
through the service of a radio, but
from the flesh and blood of a liv
ing human being, who is the in
ner guard of the circle of the po
litical fortunes of those who ¢on
sider accepting offices,* Jout not
applylng for them. The Secratary
of the Navy portofolio will not be
issued to an applicant, but it wm{
be tendered to a Georgian, who
‘has rendered valuable service to
!the ‘party. g, R
| Bulloch county was one, if
not the only county to roll up
the ‘langedt majority Ffor the
Democratic ticket in the state,
according to the Bulloch Times.
, Roosgevelt and Garner received
1,906 votes; Hoover, 17; Homer
Parker, Democratic candidate for
Congress in the First district re
ceived 1,913 and Overstreet, Re
publican candidate for Congress,
opposing Mr, Parker reecived 6
votes. If all the counties tn
Ceorgia voted as solidly Democra

have little encouragement to be
