F.A.A.TOASSUME POWER THIS WEEK New Administration Will Have Authority to Fine Offenders. By the Associated Press. The second chapter in the post- repeal history of Federal liquor con- trol is expected to open soon, perhaps this week. When President Roosevelt appoints his new Federal alcohol administrator the old control agency which took up the task of keeping order after repeal will officially die. For some time this agency, known as the Federal Alcohol Control Admin- stration, has been without power over the beer, wine and liquor trade it formerly ruled. It worked through codes, which were swept away in the decision that smashed N. R. A. F. A. A. to Have Power to Fine. The new F. A. A. (Federal Alcohol Administration) will have power to | fine offenders, as well as revoke or suspend licenses, whereas the old agency had no power to assess fines. Instead of working through code au- thorities, the new F. A. A. will enforce its rules by direct action against wviolators. In the period in which it ruled the industry, the F. A. C. A. licensed sbout 16,000 manufacturers and whole- salers through its six code authorities. It approved about 10,000 of the 29,538 labels submitted to it by these dealers. “Limited approval” was given 14,094 other labels and the rest were rejected. By vetoing “misleading” labels, re- voking licenses of “unfair” companies, and even taking offenders into court, the F. A. C. A, under Administrator Joseph H. Choate, jr., sought to stamp out what it considered evils, “Tied Houses” Included. Among these officials listed “tied houses,” which are retail establish- | ments pledged to buy only from the producer or wholesaler; the practice of taking back goods once sold, offer- ing prizes and premiums as induce- ment to sales, misleading advertising and labeling. Officials said the “tied house” evil was found most in the brewing in- dustry. While 15 of these cases were investigated by F. A. C. A. agents another 22 cases in which brewers had furnished prizes, loans, fixtures or signs to retall outlets were referred to the Justice Department for prose- cution. “CATTLE KING” DIES Excitement of Pendleton Round- Up Fatal to “Bill” Hanley. PENDLETON, Oreg..

Let the gentleman remain anonymous who dropped im at the telephone company’s offices this morn- ing to complain, mildly, that often- times when he picked up his phone at home, he found the line “dead.” Of course, of course, agreed the so- licitous young employe who, with per- heps & dozen others in the room, sit at little desks all day long to take care of subscribers’ troubles. He would attend to the difficulty at once. He picked up his desk phone to call the proper “trouble-shooters” or what- ever they are. A queer look crossed his face. He clicked the hook up and down a couple of times. Quietly he put down the receiver and, with a nod to the subscriber, hopped over to an adjoining desk. Mute apology and a crimson flush mingled on his face. He clicked the phone, desperately, and said, “Hello, hello"—not angrily, of course. Just | disappointedly. He was not daunted. He walked to & third desk and a third, fresh com- pany telephone. It is quite true. also dead! A messenger was sent to get the in- formation needed. “This has been a pleasure,” said the subscriber, as he later walked to the window to pay his bill. * X | BOOK OF THE MONTH, MAYBE. John McCormick, business man- ager of the Commonweal and a member of the editorial staff of the Macmillan Co., book publishers, tells of a young amateur Washing= ‘This phone was ton author who, submitting her first manuscript, offered to write the “blurd,” too. “And,” she wrote, “I should be very glad to compose the blubber on the jacket.” * ¥ * ¥ THE GIFTIE GIE. TWO Washington women were rid- ing on a street car passing the State, War and Navy Building. “To me that is the worst looking Government building in the Capital,” said one. “Can't agree with you,” said the other. I think it most attractive. It is so different and. possesses individ- uality.” “I am very glad to hear you say that,” said a man turning around from the seat in front. All our new buildings look like penitentiaries. ‘Then he congratulated both women on their freedom of speech, daring to speak out and say just what they thought. “I've worked for the Government 30 years,” he declared with vigor. “It's & great life; makes rabbits out of the men and cats of the women.” * ok ok % PARTNERSHIP. Wayside operative No. 777, visit- ing Bridgeton, N. J., the other day, came upon this unusual parinere ING STAR, WASHINGTON, Washington Wayside Random Observations of Interesting Events and Things. ship on the town’s main street: “Lamb & Wolf, Optometrists.” * X x x SHERLOCK ELECTRIFIED. AN INVENTOR some time ago brought to the Charlotte, N. C., office of the Federal Bureau of Inves- tigation a strange-looking machine, replete with wheels, gears, wires and batteries. He explained it was a “fugitive locator.” Just insert a wanted notice in a gadget under the machine, he said, and the machine would pick up the scent of the want~ ed criminal, transform the scent into electrical waves, charge a battery, start two indicator arms swinging in the direction of the fugitive and the rest was easy. A G-man, thinking the man might be using this ruse to lead him to the hide-out of a fugitive from justice, agreed to try the machine out. The indicators began oscillating and the excited Inventor induced the gent to get in a car and follow the 'scent” of a wanted man. After the pair had driven into another State, the machine developed internal trou- ble and the test was called off. “We were close on his trail,” the inventor said, ruefully. “We'll try it again later.” But that was enough for the G-man. * % X X WHITE-APRONED LAW. Some of the white-aproned gro=- cery clerks in the stores at Lyon Park, Va., become volunteer traffic officers every time the fire ap- paratus from Clarendon approaches. The boys rush into the center of the highway and wave trafic to the side, thus protecting the motorists and giving the fire en- gines a clear right-of-way. * ok * ¥ CALL THE POLICE. MA‘I'r HORN, the pianist, is organiz- izing & minstrel show so he can parade down Pennsylvania avenue be- hind s big brass band. In recalling the old minstrels, Mr. Horn tells of the time the late Lew Dockstader came to Washington, lost his watch somewhere down town and confided this fact to the then superintendent and major of police, Richard S8yl- vester. “That's all right, Lew,” the major said. “I'll turn out every detective on the force to find your watch. Rest assured, I won't leave a stone unturned.” Next morning -vhen Dockstader looked out of his hotel window men were at work tearing up the street. “Bless my soul,” said Dockstader, “but old Dick Sylvester is as good as his word.” YOUTHS SLAY OFFICER Marshal Is Shot Down When He Accosts Two Prowlers. NEWPORT, Wash., September 16 (#).—Three wounds from a ‘pair of youthful gunmen who opened fire without warning brought death to Night Marshal George Conniff, §3, yesterday. He was shot down as he accosted the two armed prowlers in an alley behind the Newport creamery. Con- niff emptied his revolver at the fleeing pair, but lack of any blood evidence convinced Constable H. W. Larson they escaped unwounded. Conniff was shot down exactly a| month after the Rosalia, Wash., mar- shal was killed in a fight with bank robbers, who still are at large.

O, LEOPOLD VISITS BAVARIA TO RECOVER HIS HEALTH Goes With Dowager Queen Eliza- beth to Duchess Theodore’s Estate for Week’s Rest. By the Associated Press. BRUSSELS, September 16.—King Leopold went with Dowager Queen Elizabeth yesterday to the estate of Duchess Theodore of Bavaria for a week’s rest to regain his health after his recent tragic accident. Princess Axel of Denmark, sister of the late Queen Astrid, remained to care for the King's motherless children. A spokesman said the royal family would move to the castle at Laeken because the Stuyvenberg palace re- minds the King too insistently of his wife, killed in the recent auto acci- dent in Switzerland.
