He also recom- mended initiation by this state of a federal constitu- tional amendment requiring submi GOV. SMITH. atures of all fu- ture proposals to amend the federal Constitution. 'he legislature, the governor said had ratified the eighteenth amend- ment in 1919 by a narrow margin after refusing a proposal by him to mit the question to the people in “ferendum. He then recalled the el beer bill, passed by sub- ity in the legiglature , and subsequently rendered tive by a Supreme Court de- cision, and declared that “if demo- cratic government means what we all say it means, surely the history of our own state does not indicate that a I majority of the people are in sympa- thy with the existing Volstead act. If the people are to get relief from this situation they must look to the national Congress.” Other Recommendations. Other recommendations made by the governor were for repeal of the motion picture censorship law, resto- ration of the direct primary, municipal public utilities Referring to what he termed un- just discrimination against women lin the law, he declared “we cannot stand still after having admitted them to the full rights of citizenship. Their place in busin th have gained for themselves by their ability.

Brooklyn Base Probe Reveals $1,- 500 Loss in $40,000,000 Inventory. Alleged thefts of property from the Brooklyn naval base by ecmploves there amounted to less than $1,500. it was said at the Navy Department today. This is Jooked upon as small in an inventory of property amount- ing to $40,000,000. " The suggestion was made that any large business house suffered more than that in the course of a year. It also was pointed out that the investigation which led to the un- covery of the thefts was made by the Department of Justice. The Navy has no detective or investigating force for such purposes and called in the Department of Justice operatives to work on the case. The Navy's intel- ligence force 1s used exclusively for the gathering of naval information and protection of naval secrets. Senator McKellar in the Senate re- cently used the original dispatch cov- ering the thefts as the basis for a motion to cut out the appropriation for naval intelligence. The dispatch from New York said that the naval intelligence operat had failed i their efforts to uncover the thefts. e A wir has been set up on an {sland in the Firth of Forth.
