ONE“WET REFUGE ON AMERICAN SO No Prohibition in_Philippines But Nobody Drinks By NEA Bervice. Manila, P, I., May 3.—The Philip- pine Islands are the one part of all of Uncle S8am's vast domain that is legally wet. Yet one sees fewer drunken people in Manila and other Philippine cities than in the continental United States ftself. Here in Manila one will not encounter moré than one in a fort- night. The reason? Well, it isn’t so mys- terious—and it isn’'t anything that proves anything in particular, one way or the other, about the prohibi- tion question itself. Here's the way the old residents of Manila explain it: “Tropical climes just aren't the places for heavy drinking. People who have been here any length of time learn that you just can’t do it. There is some drinking of course— but not to excess. Even the natives can’t do it. Americans and Euro- Special for Tomorrow Large Selection of CHILDREN’S HATS White, Black, Navy and all colors. With or without streamers. peans who come out here quickly learn that they are in a place where there is a prohibition law passed by Mother Nature." 8Some American residents of Ma- nila who/ have lived here for years say that the omly drunken persons they have ever seen heré are newly- arrived soldiers from the army posts at Fort McKinley ur Corregidor and sailors from the battleships. And these young men quickly learn that | the flowing bowl isn't a good thing in this hot climate. The Philippines are . the only American soil on the glébe whers prohibition is not in gffect, Alaska, { Porto Rico, Hawaii—all are legally dry. But not the Philippines. Why? Because the Philippines are’ legally possessions of the United States, and not terrijories. Hence the Fillpino legislature has the power td decide whether such a law as the 18th amendment should apply here. The legislature decided that it | shouldn't—and it doesn't. * In other { words, it would, under existing cir- eumstances, be illegal for the Ameri- | ean government to try to put prohi- | bition into effect here. | There is a‘local W. C. P. U. in Manila, working for a dry law, but there is little public sentiment in its favor. Saloons are open just as they used to be in ihe United States, and when you ask the average Filipino abeut prohibition, he'll say some- thing like this: “Prohibition is American politics. We are not interested. It is not a problem here.” DELVE FOR FORUM “UNDERTURK Ty Archagologists Probe Constanti- nople for Ancient Ruins Constantinople, May 3 (—With the facilities granted by the new regime in Turkey, an increasing number of foreign archacological ex- peditions are secking the buried marvels of ancient Byzantium which lie beneath the busy streets of mod- ern Constantinople. The last two years have ecen the British expedition's excavations of the hippodrome, and this year a i Danjsh group is to dig for the famed forum of the Emperor Constantine, founder of the city. Rising at the corner of one of Stamboul's most crowded streets, and almost enmeshed by telephone and trolley wires, is the “Burned Col- umn,” the only mark now above ground of the great forum. Using this column as a point of departure, the Danes will delve for masterpieces of sculpture which are belicved to be lying many feet beneath the modern city’s level, The “Burned Column” {s one of the chief sights of Stamboul because of its antiquity, having stood here more than 1500 years, and before that having adorned the Temple of Apollo at Rome whence it was wrested by Constantine to embellish his new eastern empire capital. 8truck by lightning in the 11th cen- tury, and scorched by the great fire which laid 8tamboul in ruins in the 16th century, the ghattered shaft of marble remains a i reflection of a great city's great past SHEAN RELEASED TODAY: SERVED THREE YEARS Accomplice of Gerald Chapman fin New Britain Murder Out on Pa- role from State's Prison.

Thring, above, of shington, D. C. Thring, who was an apprentice sea- man stationed near San Francisco at the time of the bomb outrage, says he was near the scene a few minutes before the explosion and saw ths man who actually carried the in- fernal machine in his satchel. Whea the former labor leader’s case comes up for a rehearing, he is prepared to testify that it wasn’t Mooney. TRANSPORTATION BILL FOR PUPILS LOST IN SENATE (Continued from First Page) As a result of rejection, procedure of appointing a committee of con- both bodies will not be followed. This allows the bill to “fall between the houses.” Senator Christ, in opening the at- in principle, for it forced the citles and towns not mneeding transporta- tion aid to pay for the towns that are asking for it Commenting on the house passing the bill after the appropriation had becn reduced to $270,000 from $400,- 000, Senator Christ said: *Sixty. seven per cent of a wrong principle is no casier to swallow than one hundred per cent of a wrong prin- ciple.” He said the compromise was ef- fected only to make the bill “more palatable,” for the senate “to swal- low."” Opposition Arguments Senator Durant of Guilford, ‘edu- cation chairman, #aid he was for the bill, as was his entire committee, but would vote with the appropria- tions committee because it was an “organization committee” and he believes in the organization. Senator Weaver of New Milford attacked the appropriations committee on the grounds that it did not know what |the situation is in the small town, and said that these towns would net have sought ald if they could have solved their problems themselves. Senator Hackett opposed the com- mittee believing its report meant that towns and cities would not edu- cate their children equally, and de- clared the real fight was between the cities and towns. Scnator Bergin of New Haven, the minority leader, favored rejection because, he said, New Haven would pay most of the cost of transporting children in small towns. Senator Hart of Bridgeport said the same thing in regard to his city. National C. of C.

BULLS LIFT STOGK FIGURES ON CURB Ticker Falls Behind Brokers' Loans Situation Eases New York, May 3 (® — Bulls waged the most powerful campaign the curb market has seen since March today, sending prices -sub- stantially higher as atecks were taken in large blocks. The' ticker was unable to keep up with the pace of trading and fell about halt an hour behind the market by midday. The increase -of but $40,000,000 in federal reserve brokers loans, after predictions running as high as $100,- 000,000 gave impetus to the forward movement. Continued tightness of money however, with call loans re. newing at 10 per cent and a firming of bankers' rates, tended to impair confidence and prompted heavy profit taking at the higher levels. A number of issues were depressed by early afternoon 1 to 8 points from their best figures of the morning. Utilities were again outstanding in group strength, United Corp., which will soon go on the “big board,” opened with a block of 18,000 shares and rose to a new high record near 60. Electric Investors rounded up 9 points, but lost some of its gain in realizing. Arkansss Natural Gas, @ low priced stock, was heavily bought, and reached new high ground. American Superpower B was a soft spot, slipping back more than 4 points, buy then rallying. Al- lied Power made further substantial headway. < Aluminum Co. continued to climb to new high levels, mounting about 10 points. Auburn Auto, another issue which is expected to go to the “big board” soon, made & gain al- most as wide. The KFord issues moved in a narrow range, the “A" shares showing firmness, while the “B" shares eased. Alrcraft stocks made further progress, with Fokker leading the advance. Douglas, how- ever, turned heavy in profit taking. Bendix, Parker Pen, Caterpillar Tractor and Guardian Fire Insur- ance were strong features. Olls were dull and {rregulas Standard of Ohio imade a moderate #ain, while Vacuum eased: In the mines, Newmont and Phelp- Dodge were firm, STANDARD SSUES REGAINING FAVOR Bond Dealers Hopetal of Revived General Interest New York, May 3 UM—While trading in the convertibles continued to feature the bond market today, demand was somewhat broader for the standard investment lssues. Of late they have preserved a firm undertone in face of bullish demon- strations in stocks, gyrations of the stock-privilege bonds and trying credit conditions. As a result deal- ers were more hopeful of a revival of interest in the fixed-income se- curities later in the year. 8Strength in this section was evidenced by continued firmness of United States government obligations in the early trading today. Interest in the mew American I. G. Chemical 6 1-2s, compared with yesterday, lagged after the market's opening and in trading volume they were surpassed by American Inter- national 6 1-2s, the only investment trust issue on the list. The latter, following the rise of the stock, pass: ed 107 with sales exceeding $400,- 000 par value. Reports that the company had been very successful in its recent market operations fur- nished the basis for the interest in the issue, The American Chemicals, after moving up a fraction at the open- ing, dipped to 104 1-2 but recovered fractionally to its yesterday's clos ing price of 105. Although active, the new American Telephone ¢ 1-28 also were unchanged in the fore- noon. Publia Service of New Jersey 4°1-28 continued to soar, gaining more than 4 points before noon. Among fhe industrials, Gould Coupler 6s made a new high at 16 1-2 as resuit of the eompany's strengthened earning power. Gan- ‘ [nett company, Inc., 6s slipped dewn another point to 92. Municipal bond houses are pre- paring for two big offerings next week. Bids will be epened then on an issue of $25,000,000 thirty-year & per cent bonds of the Province of Ontario, Canada, and the $52.000,- 000 corporate stock subway notes of New York city, the biggest plece of municipal financing of the year, Three Injured When Bomb Explodes in Pittsburgh Pittsburgh, Pa, May 3 (UP)— Three men were seriously injured here last night when a bomb burst in the center of the downtown dis- trict.

But it slowed up later when weakness cropped out in & few of the vola. tile specialties. The unexpectedly small increase of $40,000,000 in federal reserve brokers' loans and the optimistic comments on business by Secretary of Commerce Lamont, provided the background for the “bull" move- ment. Pools, several of which have been organized in the last few days, provided a good part of the day's activity, whirling their stocks up to attract & public following which reached fairly large proportions in ?’M of the industrials and special- es. Call money renewed unchanged at 10 per cent and appeared to be firm at that figure although if new money comes into the market as usual on Friday for week-end investment, the rate probably will work lower. ——— THE MARKET AT 3:80 P, M., (Furnished by Putnam & Co.)

MOVE GIRL KIDNAPER 10 WONEN'S PRISON Attemp to Deliver Rita Doran From Pennsylvania Jail Prompts Traunster Made in Secrecy. Lancaster, Pa., May 3 (UP)—Rits Doran, the pretty Iowa farm gir! sentenced to rerve from eight to 1¢ years in prison for her part in the kidnaping of a state highway pa- trolman, has been transferred from county jail here to the Muncy indus- trial prison for women. Great secrecy surrounded the transfer of the girl, who at Phe time of her conviction threatened to *get some one.” It is believed authorities also feared an attempted jail deliv- cry and three automobiles, loaded with armed guards, accompanied the girl to the Muncy prison. The transfer came within a few days after members of the last grand jury reported that Rita’s cell was fitted as luxuriously “as a par- lor.” They said the girl had beauti- ful cushions, cut flowerp and other luxuries in her cell.
