=8 HERE'S CHANCE TO EARN SMALL FORTUNE ;0FFER Hearst Will Give $25,000 for Best Plan to Repeal Eighteenth Amendment A th NEW YORK, Jan. 2 R]‘ Hearst, through his newspapers, has offered a prize of $25,000 for the best plan to repeal the Righ- teenth Amendment d substi- tute a ‘“more liberal and more American measure.’ W. C. Durant recently offered $25,000 for the best plan to force prohibition. The prize won by Major Chester Mills Hearst's offer is contained a telegram to Edwin Clapp, merly with the Hearst papers, and now connected Durant Motors. Hearst's telegram is in answer to one from Clapp requesting the publisher’s views on ‘“‘Education versus Force in getting the Eigh- teenth Amendment obeyed,” als asking for a talk about ‘this problem of law observance as a necessary part of the return of the country to being law-abid- ing. 1 bes be on pr bu up ro was in for- news- with A Pre Can't Be Enforced Hearst said he does not believe prohibition ever will be even can be enforced He believes that if a violent effort is made to enforce it during the next four years by the Republican admin- istration, the next President will be a Democrat Hearst said the dential candidacy E.

Out at the skat- ing pond in the basin, the Al- aska RElectric Light & Power Company has installed a big light for the convenience of yeungsters using the ice there at night hours. The company furn- ishes the power free but the City pays for the fixtures. For a few days everything was lovely. But it was too good to continue. Monday night the light was hit by a well-aimed missile and the pond was again in dark- ness. On the plea of several youngsters, Judge Shepard order-| ed and paid for another light but he ,is out on the warpath for the one who broke the big globe. “And if I find him, I'h going to collect for the damage done,” the judge asserted. ., R.
