Warren of Mich- igan would be the choice of Pre- sident Coolidge for Attorney- General. ‘ The question of whether Mr. Warren would accept, however, remained a possible barrier to the forwarding of his nomination to the Senate, to succeed Attor- ney-General Stone, Washington, Jan. 10.—(By the A. P.)—While unexpected opposition i delaying action by the Senate Judi- ciary Committee on the nomination of Attorney-General Stone to be a justice of the supreme court, the name of Charles B. Warren of Mich- igan has emerged prominently unofficial discussion of the succes- sion to the impending cabinet va- cancy. Mr. Warren’s name has figured persistently in discussion of the At- torney-Generalship, despite the un- animous endorsement of Governor Groesbeck of Michigan by the dele- gation in the House from that state and by Senator Couzens as their first and only choice for the appoint- ment. The President is known to hold Mr. Warren in the highest regard and has frequently conferred with him and been his host at the White House, One of these conferences was held yesterday. The opposition to Mr. Stone's ap- pointment to the supreme cOurt de- veloped yesterday in the judiciary sub-committee considering the no- mination.

BOTTLERS TO CONFER IN CITY JAN, 29': Act Now in Force, See If It Has “Teeth” i pure food act now in force and en- deavor to learn wether it has “teeth” |insofar as it relates to the ice cream or soft drink manufacturing or sales, i business according to H. H. Williams of the Mandan Beverage ‘secretary of the organization. It is the contention of Mr. Willi- ams that ice cream manufactured for sale and containing gelatine or other ingredients other than flavoring and cream, should be so labelled and signs listing ingredients posted at | fountains or other plaees where sold. “Too many small producers are add- ing such mixtures,” he charged. Wm. D. Bostelman, Chicago, rep- [resentative of the National Bottlers association will be the chief outside speaker at the convention. Action for establishment of a “bottle exchange” will be one of the main business items before the ses- sion, Legislation may be asked of the 19th sfate assembly making it a misdemeanor for small operators to appropriate bottles owned by other manufacturers and in which their names are “blown” in which to vend pop and other soft drinks. According to Secretary Williams \there are small pop manufacturing plants, which never buy bottles of their own and vend their bottled goods in containers the property of as many different manufacturers as there are bottles to the case. A law to make such appropriation of the other fellows bottles a mis- demeinor, and establishment by the bottlers of an “exchange” to which all empty containers be shipped, sorted and returned to the original manufacturers as designated the names blown in the glass, “would eliminate this nuisance” he declared. The North Dakota bottlers are represented in both houses of the state legislature, Senator W. S. Whitman of Grand Forks, and Rep. Herman Rabe of Dickinson, being members of the carbonated beverage men’s association.
