By the Associated Press. Joseph H. Choate, jr., chairman of the Federal Alcohol Control Ad- ministratien, today said the liquor industry “has no rights,” but only “privileges” permitted by the Gov- ernment. ‘The lawyer chosen by President Roosevelt to direct F. A. C. A. in its regufation of liquor after repeal voiced this warning as a result of protests made by the industry at a series of recent hearings before the Control Board. Regulations Opposed. Men connected with almost all groups now under permits—distillers, brewers, wholesalers, importers and rectifiers—recently have expressed op- position to phases of F. A. C. A. and code regulations. “There is a fundamental difficulty that some of us sometimes forget,” Choate said. “The liquor business is not like other businesses. If it does not have a flexible and reasonable system such as we (F. A. C. A. and codes) are trying to run, it will get | something worse.” Rectifiers Most Vigorous. The most vigorous protest to F. A. C. A. recently has been by rectifiers. They have asked free and unbridled issuance of vermits. F. A. C. A, after conference with Treasury tax experts, agreed to this on the condi- tion that a minimum tax return of $300 a month for the Government be | assured with each new permit. Similar requests on new permits have been made by distiller groups. They oppose .imiting permits to esti- mated ~onsumption on the ground the liquor business is fant industry” and “drinking habits” of the country | are not vet determined. |RESOLUTION OPPOSES DAYLIGHT SAVING HERE | | _ | | day Federal Court convictions of Ed- | the decision was upheld. | chestra in Stanley Hall this evening U. 8.

The resolution recalls that daylight saving time prevailed here in 1922, and says that it “proved most unsatisfac- tory to the Government employes,” and “would have a tendency to bring about overtime ™ The “daylight saving” in 1922 con- sisted in opening the departments an hour earlier; the clock was not changed. In 1918-19 the District had statu- tory daylight saving time in common with the rest of the country. —————————— Morrow, who is now on vacation from ! Sewickley Academy, in Pennsylvania.

BOSTON, March 30.—An interstate gang of machine gun bandits was sought last night in a sweeping inves- tigation of a desperate plot to liberate five long-term convicts and to launch a reign of terror with hold-ups at 59 banks and other corporations in five New England States, New Jersey and Nebraska. Details of the frustrated plot were revealed by Arthur T. Lyman, com- missioner of corrections, after a trap set by State police failed to capture the “outside” gangsters who allegedly planned to deliver the five prisoners from the “model” Norfolk Prison col- ony Thursday night Fifty-nine 1extile mills, manufac- turing plants, banks, railroad stations and city treasuries in 37 cities were | listed on a photostatic copy, printed on a piece of cardboard 3 by 4 inches, seized in the cell of one of the five convicts implicated. - “It was ‘Dillinger’ stuff.” Commis- sioner Lyman declared. “It was the most carefully planned jail delivery in the history of Massachusetts.” Lyman said that maps of the seven States, formulae for high explosives and a list of doctors who could per- form “face” lifting” operations were also seized from the cells. The list of prespective victims was headed by the “Lincoln, Nebr., Na- tional Bank” with a notation “$2,- 870,000,” the “Pennsgrove, N. J.,” bank with “$130,000" and “Rahway, N. J.,” and “$82,000."
