WASHINGTON —(#)— Domestic
distilleries were moving at full
blast and importers were having
liquor loaded on fast boats in foreign
ports Saturday in a hurried effort
to meet, the expected demand for
legal spirits Tuesday upon presi
dential prockamation of repeal.
President Roosevelt will return
from his vacation at Warm Springs
10 recelve notification that thirty
six states—the number necessary
to amend the constitution — have.
ratified the twenty - first amend
ment repealing prohibition. He
plans to issue his proclamation
immediately upon that notification.
Preparing for quick - action, Act
ing Secretary of State Phillips
Sniurday asked the governors of
Ohio, Pennsylvania and Utah to
inform him immediately of the re
sults of the repeal conventions ta
be held in those states Tuesday.®
Thirty-three states already . have
natified. !
The president’s and the state
department’s proclamations are to
be issued simultaneously. In . a
move to prevent interference with
their issuance, the government
Saturday asked the @ismissal of |
legal proceedings that have been
brought in the Distriet of Colum
bia supreme court to block the ac
tion.
Arguments on a petition filed by
Canon William Sheafe Chase of
Brooklyn contending the method
of ratification of repeal was un
constitutional have been set for
Monday. The justice department
Saturday claimed the petitioner
had insufficient legal interest to
maintain the action and that itl
should have been brought in the
states and not against the secre-l
tary of state. |
Complete control of the liquorl
industry under the federal alcoholl
control administration was assured
Saturday with the signing of the
importers code by President Roose
velt at Warm Springs. It gives
the administration power {o regu
late the volume, origin and types
of liquor to he imported.
The distillers code has been in
effect for nearly a week. The fi
nal drafi of the brewing code wns
made Saturday by the president’s
interdepartmental alcohol oommit?j
Approximately half of the 1,200
applications of importers had been
passed upon by representatives ot
the agriculture and. treasury de
partments late Saturday permit
ting immediate shipment of be
tween four and five million gallons
of spirits and wines from foreign
ports, e
Although the government did
not disclose the quotag laid down
for foreign imports, permits grant
ed importers Saturday indicated
that Ttaly and Germany were be-
Ing favored.

Ized to be brough¢ in . from the
United Kigdom was less than five

Record to Maintain,
Says Director
The annual seal sale of the Clarke

is chairman in charge of the seal

. The program of work cf the local
’assoclation for 1934 includes the
-services of a full-time nurse wha
will work under the direction of
the Board of Health. The nurse
will serve six months or a year de
pending on the success of the seal
sale. In addition to taking care
of the 250 patients with tubercu
losis in Clarke county, the nurse
will actively engage with the health
department in ‘a county wide pro
gram of health education aimed at
the ultimate eradication of the
disease.
The Clarke County Tixberculosis}
Association has had an enviable
record, Mr. Lowe declared yester
day. Among its accomplishments
has been the operatiof of the Fair
haver Hospital, one of the few in
stitutions of its kind being operat
ed by the associations in the south.
This has been made possible, Mr.
Lowe said, through the full co-op~
eration of the county goverpment
and interested individuals.
Ninety-five per cent of the men
ey will be spent in Clarke county
and five per cent leaves the state
for national. purposes.
“We feel a tremendous responsi
bility to the community,” Mr. Lowe
declared, “because we have enjoy
ed such tremendous good will on
the part of the citizenship of Clarke
county in -the past. We are making
every endeavor to merit the con
tinued confidence of the publ
through ' service in this great
cause.”
Citizens of Athens who through
inadvertence have been left off the
mailing list of the Christmas seals
are requested to call Mr. Lowe ‘on
the telephune. Christmas seals
will be mailed to them promptly.
Officers of the Clarke County
Tuberculosis Association are H.
M. Heckman, president; KEarnest

Diplomacy to Strengthen

PARIS —(AP) — Premier Cam

lic safety” cabinet was given a
brief lease of life in its unsteady
budget-balancing job by twg votes
of confidence in the chamber of
deputies while rumbles of ‘‘work
and bread” unrest reached the
capital. ¥o . g
. In the ten-minute ministerial
declaration with which he presen
ted his ministry to the chamber
for the first time, the premier said
he avoided treading on political
toes because the time would come
“patriotically” to halt a budget de
ficit which “menaces the treasury’
and pleaded that .quick action was
needed for the public safety. |
He announced also ‘that he re
jected the idea :of any separate
agreement between France =nd
Germany, that- all decision in ' the
matter pertaining to disarmament
and Franco-German relations
must be made in associatien with
other powers, and that the prob
lems might be discussed by -am
bassadors through regular diplo
matic channels,
| The confidence vdtes postpon

for its life on proposals for bal
ancing the budget, protecting the
franc, and quieting the shouts of
‘unrest — matters on which three
other governments have fallen in
a year. ’
By a vote of 391 against 19 the
deputies deferred interpellations,
which are a question of confidence,
Shouts of “choose the date of the
suicide!” greeted M. Chautemps
suggestion that debate . begin
Thursday on the fiscal problems.
Then came a second vote of con

SMITH IS SEEN AS
"~ RIGHT WING CHIEF
NEW YORK.—(AP)—Alfred E.
Smith’s criticism of the Roosevelt
administration has started specu
lation here as to whether the for
mer governor is bidding for lead
ership of the conservative element
of the Democratic party.
Reports persist that the former
governor might seek the Demo
cratic nomination for United
States senator next year, but to
these reports Smith has remained
silent.
| The New York Sun, discussing
Smith’s editorials, said:
“Smith has broken completely
away from Roosevelt and it will be
surprising if the Happy Warrior
does not step to the front as the
recognized exponent of the con
servative faction of the party.”

CAYSW. R. HEARST
Publisher Praises Roose

Hits Bankers
SAN SIMEON, Calif.— (AP) —
William Randolph Hearst said Sat
urday night that President Roose
velt “is striving to get the country
away from the blood money of the
Shylocks, away from the hard
money of hard men,” and asserted
that Alfred E. Smith is “all wet”
in his eriticism of the President’s
policy.
The publisher, speaking on
“Where Is Our Money?' over a
National Broadecasting company
network, said:
“Those who do not Kknow so
much about finance, . but Kknow
something of human nature, think
that it is safer to . follow Mr,
Roosevelt than the international
bankers who have robbed us and
betrayed us in the past, and are
apparently striving to establish
the dollar of depression so they
‘can plunder us again, =

them in hard money, in blood
money, and they call easy money

Mr. Morgan’s political agent, Mr.

F. D. R. Wants Legislation
Amended To Free Money
Feels That Changes Are
Needed in Criticized Se
curities Act
WASHINGTON.— (AP) —Pres
ident Roosevelt wants the securi
ties act amended to loosen the
flow of capital into legitimate bus
iness which. some critics of the
law have contended has been
dammed up by too many restric
tions.
This was made known Saturday
by Chairman Fletcher of the sen
ate banking committee. He told
reporters Mr. Roosevelt had in
formed him through Henry Mor
genthau, jr.,, acting secretary of
the treasury, that some changes
were needed in the securities law,
but that care should be, taken not
to weaken its provisions to protect
the investing public from unscrup
ulous promoters,
The Florida Democrat agreed
with the President’s views, but de
nied reports the President had
urged the committee to propose
federal curbs on stock market ac
tivities.,
Nevertheless, Fletcher said he
personally favored some form of
government supervision of the
New York stock and other securi
ty exchanges through control of
margin accounts, and added he be
lieved the rest of the stock inves
tigating committee felt the same
way.
He predicted some such legisla~
tion would be enacted, as well as
proposals to modify the securities
lact and to strengthen the banking
and revenue laws.
The committee will regume its
investigation Tuesday by examin
ing Winthrop W. Aldrich, execu
tive head of the Chase National
bank, regarding his recommenda
tions for new banking legislation,
including prohibitions against bank
