ROTARIANS LEARN WHY SOME YANKEES ARE HATED ABROAD Or. LaRose Gives a Travelogue on Irish Tour; H. F. O’Hare Gets C. M. T. C. Job Dr. V. J. LaRose gave his impres- sions of a tour of the British Isles and the western countries of the con- tinent of Europe at the Rotary lunch- eon, at noon, today. ‘The tour was made last summer and the doctor ran into a lot of ill- feeling toward America, he said. He got into arguments with combative English officers on the steamer over the war debts and was taunted with boasts that- Britain would never pay the war loans. There were sneers for the part this country took in the war, said the doc- tor, and he was informed that Amer- ica was a negligible factor in winning it, except for the use of its money to finance the allied armies and opera- tions. England had won the war in its first six months he was told. The doctor spent a good deal of his traveling time in Ireland, the homeland of his and Mrs. LaRose’s parents. He even had a handful of Irish Free State coins which he passed around, the various industries of the land being represented in an emblem, as a horse, & fish or a fowl on one side, with “the harp that once in Tara’s halls the soul of music shed” on the other side. Meets Bismarck Hero of Fight In Ireland, he said, he met Mike Flavin, a former resident of Bismarck but now a member of parliament, at 84. Mike wanted the doctor to search through The Tribune of 1888 and get @ copy of the story of his prize fight with Ike Hays, a negro, Ike was a @ professional of fistiana, which Mike did not know. until they got into the ring, whereupon he was so scared over the outcome that he. nearly beat the negro to death in his panic. The doctor deplored the bad man- ners of many Americans abroad, which merely increase the antagon- istic feeling toward this country. In Belgium, for instance, said the doctor, it was considered a great joke when the paper money was depreciated, to paste it on suit cases and car win- dows, which hurt the feelings of the sensitive Belgians. Finds Orderly Drinking ‘The doctor also gave the club the benefit of his observations on liquor control in Quebes and in England. He said he saw no drunkenness, but a respect for law in the way in which the liquor was imbibed. ‘The traveling in Ireland is mostly by horse, jaunting car arid bicycle, he said. Taxes on cars are too high to permit owning them, about $60 per horsepower annually. Another interesting observation he made was that Holland is getting tired of supporting a royal family and ‘would like to make a change to a more economical regime. O'Hare Indorsed for C. M. T. C. ‘The club indorsed -Hethert O'Hare for C. M. T. C. commissioner for North Dakota, solely on.the ground that as the summer military camp is held at Fort Lincoln, the commission- er should be a Bismarck resident. Mr. O'Hare is a veteran of the Spanish- American war and already has been indorsed by the Veterans of Foreign Wars. The work of Commissioner W. C. MacFadden, of Fargo, last year, ‘was commended at the same time. President Harry Brandes announced ‘Tuesday. March 25, selected for farm- ers night. A letter from Rev. Paul S. Wright complimented Phil Meyer, head of the church committee, on the increased church attendance in the club. He mentioned a number of the Bismarck club members a] in his church in Minneapolis during visits there. A souvenir folder was receiyed from Another card sent in greeting from Medicine Hat, Alberta. 5 Guests of the day included R. C. ‘Newcomer and Robert Rea, Mandan; Henry Klein, Hazen; E. Holt, Sanish; Harry Safely, Minot; and W. H. Stuts- man, Mandan.

In Berlin all outdoor | Meetings have been forbidden, and authorities there and elsewhere con- templated no difficulty in maintain- ing control of any situation which may arise. ‘Tomorrow, Thursday, was set as world unemployment day by com- munists at an international meeting |here recently, the communist leaders \expressing hope that the jobless in jevery country will make demonstra- tions suffciently serious to give the Bourgeoisie “something to think about.” ‘ALABAMA GAS TAX RULING ANNOUNCED Seller Who Pays Tax, Not Con- sumer, May Deduct Same for Income Tax Purposes Washington, Mar. 5.—()—The in- ;ternal revenue bureau ruled today j that the gasoline tax imposed by the | ; State of Alabama was deductible for |federal incame tax purposes by the ‘distributor, retail dealer, or storer | who pays it but not by the consumer. | "The bureau said the ruling applied only to Alabama. The bureau held, however, that if the tax is added to or made a part of the business expénse of such distri- | butor, retail dealer or storer, it can- | bee be deducted by him separately as a tax. The opinion said it appears “that | the purpose of the act approved Feb. * | 10, 1923, as amended, is to impose the gasoline tax of the State of Alabama upon the distributor, retail dealer or storer. The act approved Jan. 4, 1927, imposing an aditional tax of 2 cents per gallon, is similar and the same purpose is manifest. There is nothing in the statutes either by provision for a refund or otherwise, to indicate an intention of purpose to impose the tax upon the consumer of gasoline.’ Former Dry Agent Is Accused of - Stealing Government Records Chicago, Mar. 5.—(?)—Accused of @ conspiracy to remove and steal | government records from the offices of the district prohibition administra- tor, Richard Proud, suspended feder- al dry agent, and Sani Pokrass, Mil- waukee, waived examination today before the United States commission- er, They were named in true bills voted yesterday by the federal grand Jury.

The committee report, which re- ceived approval of the senate agricul- ture committee today would have the secretaries of agriculture and com- merce and the attorney general func- cotton futures exchanges. It recommended designation of the futures exchanges as “contract mar- kets” and the creation of a commis-4 sion with authority to suspend or re- voke the designation of a contract market upon a sufficient showing.” The senate investigators also rec- ommended that the secretary of agri- culture undertake a “thorough going study of the production of foreign cottons during recent years.” Still another recommendation proposed authorization for the department of agriculture to standardize bale-cover- ing materials with a view to better protecting the product. Finally, the committee urged that the cotton farmers be encouraged to improve his yield per acre by the use of better seed and more fertilizer and Suggested he should have facilities “to insure competitive bidding for his crop, so that at no time would he be at the mercy of the buyer.” T.d,REEDY, MANDAN MAN 31 YEARS, DIES Octogenarian Had Spent 52!

She is Natalie of Serbia, mother of the assassinated King Alexander and wife of King Milan whose riotous living forced his abdication and exile. Queen Natalie is 71, withered and white haired. At the convent of Notre Dame de Sion it is said she has not spoken of her personal life since she entered the retreat 18 years ago. She lives in strict seclusion with a lady-in-waiting always in attendance. The mother superior and nuns call her Queen Natalie but some are rather hazy as to what country she was queen of, believing it Rumania. Her mother was the Rumanian Princess Stutza.

Her marriage to Milan was an- nulled in 1888 and until 1893 although hailed and treated as Queen she lived apart, maintaining her own court at ‘Wiesbaden. In 1893 the pair was rec- onciled and remained together until the King’s abdication in favor of his son. The story of the son’s reign was even more unhappy. He and his wife, a former lady-in-waiting to Natalie, were murdered in their sleep at Sin- aja Palace, Belgrade, and their un- below. Counterattack on Wet Forces Begins Before Committee (Continued from page one) ability and standing do not help to Temove the curse of alcohol.” Has Brought Prosperity Crowther was the first witness ap- pearing for friends of prohibition who today began their reply to the seven- day assault the anti-prohibitionists have made upon the eighteenth amendment. a Crowther argued prohibition had increased prosperity, especially to the working man who, he said, had in- creased his savings accounts and wore better clothes. “I wish to state at the very begin- ning,” Crowther said, “that I am not @ member of and have no connection | of any kind with any organization | either in favor or opposed to the 18th | amendment. For many years I have | been writing upon economic and bu: iness subjects. Because of that back- ground, I was asked last summer by | Mr. Loring A. Schuler, the editor of | the Ladies Home Journal, to make a | survey of the economic effects of pro- | hibition. “I undertook the investigation solely | in an effort impartially to answer the | question: Is this country more pros- | perous as a direct result of the eigh- | teenth amendment, or is it no, taking | things exactly as they are and not as they might be? | Answer Is Affirmative | “The answer which I arrived at is | positively in the affirmative.” i Asserting he had arrived at his con- clusion largely by searching for an answer to the question of whether or not the working men of the country were today spending more or spend- ing less for drink thafi they did be- fore prohibition. He said he sent telegrams to 129 people, mostly large employers of labor, representing a fair cross section of industry and finance all over the country. “I received replies from all but a small percentage. Forty two of them did not answer or wired that they did not care to express any opinion. gn 87 instances I had replies which were more or less complete. They showed a considerable divergence of opinion on the whole fubject of the eighteenth amendment, but the im- portant points is that only one cor- respondent said that men were spent ing as much for liquor as they for- merly did. In a large majority of the answers it was said that the men were spending practically nothing for Savings Are Greater “I found,” his statement said, “that the wet diversions of spending brought about by prohibition—that is money which now goes into good sav- ings instead of over saloon bars— amounts to between two and six bil- lion dollars a year, and that at the smallest estimate the country has diverted around fifteen billion dollars since the amendment went into ef- fect. “This diversion is of double import- ance, for it has occurred in the lower income group where formerly the per- centage expenditure for liquor was smiling youngster finds! “HIAPFINESS just radiates from our baby since we began giv- ing her—"" What was it that Mrs. Fred E.

Says Wets Bluffing Edward Keating, editor of the Magazine Labor, and a former mem- ber of congress from Colorado, said that the refusal of the “brewer, the Gistiller and the dive keeper” to obey any regulations had forced enact- ‘ighteenth amendment and now the “liquor men” after 10 years were trying to bluff the Ameri- can people with threats of Civil war Keating said he did not question the right of his fellow citizens to agitate a change in the law but as- serted that “no minority, however noisy, will ever succeed in sticking up the American people with a cap pistol. He said a number of the anti-pro- hibitionists had contended they rep- resented many people, some claiming their following totaled 75 per cent of the population. If that were true, he asked why the wets did not elect more members to congress, saying they could not muster more than 100 of the 435 votes in the house and that they “would be lucky” if they got 20 votes out of the 96 in the senate.
