* JCTVITY IN GARY ‘CREATEST IN YEARS Steol Mill Foroe Now 80 Per < Cent of Total During Boom Days. By the Associated Press. GARY, Ind, August 3.—With 22,000 workers daily trudging to work in Gary's steel mills, this industrial sector is humming with greater activity than it has known for more than three years. These 22,000, representing a force about 80 per cent of that employed during the boom days before the 1929 crash, are not working as long hours or making as much money as they were then. But they are working—and a predominant note of optimism is re< flected in the stores and on the streets. Re-employment under the national recovery act as put into effect inde- pendently by the Illinois Steel Co. has sent back to the mills about 4,000 workers in recent weeks. When the code is put into effect for all Gary steel plants another 2,000 is expected to find Te-employment, officials say. Officials warned, however, that no matter how great the re-employment surge in coming weeks, Gary will be perfectly able to man all new jobs with- out any influx of job-seekers from out- side, for while the poor relief rolls have been cut down greatly from the de- pression peak of 35,000, there still are 12,000 on the rolls and plenty of work- ers still waiting their chance at the forges and furnaces. Meanwhile the Inland Steel reported its total pay roll in dollars had been tripled and, in personnel more than doubled in the last six months. Its wage scale, officials said, is in con- formity with its N. R. A. code filed three weeks ago. though its hours of work have not been adjusted as yet to that code. 2 DRIVES AT EIGHTY .

Wo CHESAPEAKE ¢ OHI0 Phone: National 0748 STAR, WASHING REPEAL VOTE NEAR INFOUR STATES Arizona, Missouri, Texas and Washington Ballot This Month. \ By the Associated Press. The citizens of four more States will decide, before the month is out, what they want done about the eighteenth amendment. ‘The background for thelr voting will show 20 States already have balloted to strike prohibition from the Consti- tution while none has taken the oppos- ing position. - So far, on the popular vote basis, repeal leads 8,400,000 to 2,500,000 in round numbers. The ever-shifting line-up of other States yet to vote held certainty today that at least 16 more Commonwealths, or 36 in all—the minimum required for repeal—will reach decisions before No- vember 8. Line-up of States. Here is the line-up of States which have set votes during the next four months: August 8, Arizona; August 19, Mis- souri; August 26, Texas; August 29, Washington; September 5, Colorado (tentatively), and Vermont; Septem- ber 11, Maine; September 12, Mary- land and Minnesota; September 19, Idaho and New Mexico; October 10, Florida; November 7. Utah (tentative), North and South Carolina, Pennsyl- vania and Ohio. Should both Colorado and Utah act, 37 States in all will have voted by November 8. In Colorado, the Gover- nor has put the date at September 5 subject to approval by the special ses- sion of the State Legislature, now meeting. Definite Plans to Ballot. Although Gov. Henry H. Blood of Utah has not yet issued formal procla- mation in that State for a vote Novem- ber 7, definite plans have been made to ballot then on both the eighteenth amendment and the State prohibition amendment. Even if one of these States failed to ballot, Gov. Frank H. Cooney of Mon- tana has indicated he might call for a vote should it be considered necessary. Otherwise, Cooney said, the vote would be put over until the regular primary next July. In other States also there is possi- bility of a vote. Gov. John G. Pollard of Virginia stated recently he believed Capt. Thomas Jefferson Davis, alde to the chief of staff of the Army, wlthl Whisky and Soda, two pigs delivered to his office at the War Department today. ‘They were sent by Lieut. John B. Sherman, grand-nephew of Gen. Willlam T. Sherman, as repayment of pigs stolen from the Davis estate by the General's raiders on the march from “Atlanta to the sea.” Civil War Pigs Replaced JST 3, 1 —Associated Press Photo. his State would ratify the repeal amend- ment by a considerable majority, and steps are being taken In Virginia to assure a vote, For Deferring Election. In Oklahoma, nominees for wet and dry conventions will be selected by con- gressional district conventions on De- cember 5. Gov. W. H.

For SCHLITZ in Brown Bottles will never harm anyone. You may or may not know that yeast is vital to beer. Obviously the purer the yeast, the purer the beer—for sour soil never produced a sound crop. Many, many years ago SCHLITZ scientists propagated a mother cell of absolutely pure yeast. In a carefully guarded cul- ture lies one of the chief reasons for the full, rich ripeness of SCHLITZ in Brown Bottles. Yeast contains an astonishingly active enzyme. This en- zyme works best in pure, sound yeast. Good beer never comes from wild, weak, impure or stale yeast, or with uncontrolled enzymatic action. Without pure yeast and enzyme control there can be no good beer. SCHLITZ has mastered the problem of enzyme control which has puzzled the best minds in the industry. SCHLITZ in Brown Bottles is brewed under perfect enzyme control. That’s why you like it. That’s why it’s so palatable—so brilliant—sparkling—rich and ripe. SCHLITZ is a predigested food. The Brown Bottle protects its purity from the brewery to your glass. Drink it freely with full confidence that it is good and good for you. Try it today.
