Havana Smdal Effoctive Jan.3 {Bussreis Orex 10 P.M, MAYETBEEROB Legal Advisership in Legal- ization Campaign Expected to Be Offered. Mrs. Mabel Walker Willebrandt, for- mer Assistant Attorney General - in charge of prohibition prosecutions, will be asked to serve as legal adviser to the campaign for legalization of beer when she returns to Washington, according to current reports here. Rumors that she no longer is con- nected with FPruit Industries, Ltd., makers of a grape concentrate, were denied at her office. Despite the asser- tion that she is still counsel for that crganization, however, reports persist that on last July 1 there was some kind of change in her connection with Fruit Industries, it being often stated that in the future she will represent the grape growers in connection with their loans from the Federal Farm Board. Mrs. Willebrandt, who has been in the West since before election, was un- derstood to be en route to the Capital and is expected soon. 1t was Fruit Industries which put out a grape concentrate known as Vine- Glo, which upon certain. treatment in the home turned to wine. Local Agency Disappears. Manufacture of this. continued, and there was a substantial sale of it here | in the National Capital for some time, but the local agency disappeared. The | Vine-Glo, as such, virtually is no longer on the market. It was withdrawn |about the time the Government suc- hibition law against so-called wine bricks. The prosecution succeeded on the principle that wine bricks violated the provision of law which prohibited the manufacture and sale of articles and ingredients from which intoxicating liquar could be made. Representatives of other wine organi- zations have been in Washington re- cently looking after the possibilities of benefit_under the proposed modifica- tion. But so far as could be learned the wine people have not yet headed | up their drive in any one all-compre- | hensive organization. | Among the wine men calling here | recently was Louis M. Martini of Kings- | burg, Calif, who is one of the larger | independents not connected with Fruit Industries, Ltd. Mr. Martini reported | that the independents of the West were | fairly well organized, but when he came 1 East to see what could be done about uniting with the Eastern wine people |and grape interests he found them so | far unorganized. Another large Eastern eoncern re- | cently placed a huge order with a Cali- | fornia company for a surprisingly large |amount of wine, to be delivered when | modification of the Volstead act was | accomplished. | Varied Use and Strength. | Legal wine in the country is used for several purposes, including sacramental wine, which in the year 1931 ran up to | a total of 772,000 gallons, mostly con- sumed by the Hebrews. This, sacra- | | mental wine varied in alcoholic con- tent, some of it being as high as 21 or | 22 per cent. | Medicinal wines for the year were about | 1,500,000 gallons in volume, used mostly |in manufacturing of patent medicines, | wine tonics and food flavors, according to Dr. James M. Doran, director of the | Bureau of Industrial Aicohol. Imports | of wine, mostly medicinal, | largely of port and sherry from Spain and Portugal, totaled about 27,000 gal- l|| 1ons in 1931. ‘The grape and wine people appear to l | be divided as to how they may benefit under modification of the Volstead act. | ceeded in making a case under the pro- | It is sold under permit. | consisting MRS, WILLEBRANDT | [Bosrice Heroe| in the World War Compiled by Sergt.

Charging that her husband, Lewis Hopfenmalier, 2d, entertained a number of women in their apartment last Sum- mer during her absence at Atlantic City and on a visit to her parents in Ken- tucky, Mrs. Norisse Sales Hopfenmaler, ‘Woodley Park Towers, yesterday filed suit for an absolute divorce in the Dis- trict Supreme Court. She says she has made effort to obtain the names of the ‘women, but has been unsuccessful. She asked alimony for, herself and one child. ‘Through Attorney E. Hilton Jackson, the wife tells the court she was married | at the Ritz-Carlton Hotel in New York City February 5, 1930. She went to the | seashore from July 15 to September 2 | and visited her parents between Sep- | tember 9 and October 30, during which times, she charges, her husband was un- faithful. Since September 19, the wife says, | she has received only $19 from her hus- | | band, who has an income of $400 a | |month from the estate of his grand- | father, Lewis Hopfenmaier, and a large | share in the estate of his father, Milton | Hopfenmaier. The wife also requests | the court to require her husband to | | surrender certain of the furniture of | the apartment which belongs to he: she claims. Some think it will be under a loosening | up of the permit system, while others | think it will be an increase in the alco- holic content of wine. Home manufacture of wine is believed to have been largely increased since the celebrated case of former Representa- tive John Philip Hill of Baltimore, who was acquitted of violating the prohibi- tion law when a jury found that the 12 per cent homemade wine was not in- toicating in fact. Technically, however, any wine not made under permit cannot contain more than one-half of 1 per cent without violating the Volstead act.

Washington’s Progressiv Custom Tailors THE INSIDE STORY OF HEATING WITH OIL Do oil burners actually cut heating costs? Is one type Do oil burners actually reduce the fire hazard? of oil burner better than another? Can installations be made in cold weather without discomfort? How much is saved on automatic hot water in summer? Do oil burners actually reduce the fire hazard? Will the new automatic boiler-burner units take the place of oil burners? Have oil burner prices hit rock bottom? These are vital questions to every home owner. Before you decide one way or another, first read these facts: Do oil burners actually cut heating costs? Oil heat costs less than coal heat in most cases. Petro & Nokol users report savings as high as 50%, though in many districts the average saving is nearer 25%. 4 Is one type of oil burner better than another? Different types of heating plants require different types of oil burners. Petro & Nokol make all accepted types. Being unbiased, our dealers recommend the type of burner best suited to your particular heating plant. Can installations be made in winter without discomfort? tne change-over to oil can be made so easily and quickly with a Petro & Nokol, you will be enjoy- ing automatic oil heat 2 hours after our experts put out your coal fire. o} How much is saved on automatic hot water in s“mmef? The same Petro & Nokol that heats your house in winter also provides for automatic hot water in summer for kitchen, bath and laundry, at a saving of almost 23 over other automatic water heaters. John G. Gamber, former president, Fire Marshals’ Associ- ation of North America, says,“My thirteen years’ experience in Fire Prevention convinces me that oil heat is a genuine public benefaction.” Every Fire Engine House in Boston has a Petro & Nokol. Will the new automatic boiler-burner units take the plaee of oil bflmrs'-' Petro & Nokol oil burners were designed for the 10,000,000 good furnaces and boilers already installed in homes. You can enjoy per- fect oil heat if you have a good heating plant. The new Arco-Petro Automatic Oil Burning Boiler is recommended for all new houses and where present boailers should be replaced. Have oil burner prices hit rock bottom? In 1925 the average oil burner cost $725. Today Petro & Nokol sells models for about half that amount, completely installed with storage tank. Commodity prices are now rising. If oil burner prices change it is only logical that it will be upward. How easy are “Easy Payments” ? under the Pecro & Nokol Public Service Plan, no down payment is required, Your small monthly payments may be extended over a period as long as 24 months, and, if desired, may include complete service, all new parts, repairs and labor, for as long as 5 years.
