Transfer of the Bureau of Prohibition from the Treasury to the Department of Justice, as discussed in some quar- ters, would directly menace the chem- istry industry of the country, declares an editerial in the American Chemical Society’s journal, Industrial and Engi- neering Chemistry. Examination, analysis and approval of denaturing formulas cannot be safely combined with the powers of prosecu- tion, the editorial stated. “To give dis- trict attorneys this responsibility of both crime detection and prosecution has never been looked upon with favor by the people,” it adds. Industrial Problem. “Laws in respect to prohibition cover not only the restriction of beverage liquors, but the permission for the use of industrial alcohol, and it is difficult to see any relationship between the ac- tivities of a department organized for liquor prosecution and the duty of ad- ministering permits for the legitimate use of alcohol denatured for industrial procession to the Capitol are as follows: | PUrPose: Arkansas, Mrs. J.

It tells the story of Wilson’s entry and upward march in politics. It is being published for the first time anywhere in the New York Herald Tribune week daysand Sundays. Itisanew, hitherto unpublished part of Baker’s ‘“The Life and Letters of Woodrow Wilson.”’ TEN days before his death Woodrow Wilson dictated his last letter. It promised Ray Stannard Baker acces$ to the personal cor- respondence and papers which comprised the “inside story” of Wilson’s life. When this letter was typed Wil- son was too weak to sign it. But Mrs. Wilson carried out his wish. She placed the entire record in Baker’s hand without restriction. Much of it was so confidential that only the President and at times his wife had access to it. There were the official records, too . . . in all five tons of material! Baker studied this astounding collection carefully. He talked with many of Wilson’s friends, verified every doubtful point, visited every place where Wilson had lived, talked or corresponded with those who had additional in- formation. He is still working on it, and as sections are completed they are being published first in the New. York Herald Tribune. This new part of Baker’s biog- raphy of President Wilson is the story of Wilson’s entry into politics at the age of 54; the story of his candidacy for the Governorship of New Jersey; his battles with politi- cal bosses; his emergence as the outstanding leader of a nation in revolt; his fight for the control of the progressive movement; his re- lationships with Bryan, La Follette and Roosevelt; the thrilling inci- dents of his nomination after a bitter struggle at the Baltimore convention and, finally, the dra- matic campaign of 1912, in which he won the Presidency by an over- whelming vote.
