The tax on cham- pagne is 5 cents per half pint. The measure also would remove the present double tax on vermouth, liquers and cordials. At present, Buck explained. a tax is imposed both be- fore and after wines are rectified into vermouth. “The average consumption of wine before prohibition was 50,000,000 gal- lons a year,” he said. “Only 21,000,- 000 gallons of tax-paid wines were sold in 1934, but at least that much was bootlegged. We feel that re- duction of the tax will reduce boot- legging and result in increased con- sumption of tax-paid wines.” - .

SEDITION BILLS HIT BY LIBERTIES UNION Penalty for Urging Overthrow of Government by Force Held Menace to Labor. By the Associated Press. The American Civil Liberties Union Kramer and Tydings-McCormack bills with a warning that an effort will be made to rush them through in the last two days of Congress. Roger N. Baldwin, director of the union, called the campaign for the bills the “most dangerous and best organized threat to civil rights” since the union's organization. The Kramer bill, which would pro- vide fines and jail sentences for writ- | ten or spoken advocacy of overthrow | of the Government by force and vio- lence, would threaten the labor move- | ment, Baldwin said. He declared there are stringent Fed- | eral statutes now punishing insurrec- tion or conspiracy. The Tydings-McCormack bill would provide punishment for those stirring “disaffection” in the armed forces.

G. McMani- gal of the United States Compensa- tion Bureau to use the detector on | John Nowak, who claims he was| permanently and totally disabled in | July, 1933, when several sacks of sugar fell on him while he was help- | ing unload a barge. Frosting Windows. This is a necessary task and more desirable than putting up curtains, especially where curtains were never meant to be, such as basement win- dows or windows where & maximum of light is needed and where absolute privacy is desired. For small windows a good frosting may be made by add- ing 1, gram ammonium chloride to 15 c. c. of water and then adding a drop of liquid glue or mucilage. Heat | the ingredients until all are dissolved | and apply hot to inside surface of the | glass. The liquids will evaporate very | quickly and the crystals formed by | I THE SUNDAY STAR, WASHINGTON, D. C. AUGUST 18, 1935—PART ONE.
