LOS _ANGELES, Sta: mick, member of the Wickersham Crime Commission, in an interview last night said prohibition could not be enforced at the present time and that anoth year's trial would be required to detel mine whether it is enfcrceable at all. July Judge McCormick has just returned | to his court after attending sessions of the commission at Washington. “Present_enforcement of the dry law is unsatisfactory,” he said. “There should be & national referendum on the question. 1If the recrganization act of 1930, whereby enforcement was tran: ferred to the Department of Justic does not within a reasonable time- another 12 months—show a substantial improvement over present unsatisfac- tory conditions, it will have been prived to any open-minded proponent of national prohibition that the exist- ing law was unenforceable.” Judge McCormick, while serving on the commission, signed a report recom- mending a referendum. 100 Families Homeless.

S OME years ago a woman engaged in educational work bought a heating plant for her home. She wanted a plant that would give reliable and efficient service through the years. Not being versed in such matters, she asked a friend to select a plant for her. This he ccnscientiously did after considering the individual merits of a number of makes. The trouble was that this man, while knowing much of mechanics, knew next to nothing of the manufacture and servicing of Heating Plants. As a heating plant it was fine, but the company back of this heating plant was not so fine and the service this particular company offered its customers was not fine at all. For a long time t heating plant held up, but when breakdowns did begin and spare parts and replacements became necessary real trou- ble started. It took weeks to secure the needed replacements and finally the company suspended business. This experience could not befall the purchaser of a “Hercules” Heating Plant because after more than forty years Sears, Roebuck’s guarantee is as good as ever.
