LAW GROUP BEGINS FUNCTIONING AGAIN Prohibition Director Woodcock's Report Will Be Studied Washington, Oct. 7 (UP)—Presi- dent Hoover's law enforcement com- mission resumes its work this week with the subject of prohibition in- volved in another phase of contro- wersial discussion, this time concern- Ihg the amount of the nation's boot- deg liquor production. / # The commission which mee ednesday after a recess since June, will be in possession of the formal report of Prohibition Director Wood- cock estimating that about seven gallons of bootleg or home made in- toxicants are being produced now annually for every man, woman and child in the United States. It scemed probable today that those campaigning for repeal of the 18th amendment would dispute the Woodcock figures. Last week the Association Against the Prohibition Amendment estimated the nation's liquor consumption at 1,100,000,000 gallons as compared to Woodcock's 876,338,718 gallons. Prohibition is not the only subject under consideration by the commis- sion and new research will be out- lined after the hearing of sub-com- mittee reports as the commission convenes. There are indications the commission soon will investigate horse and dog race betting, although this matter has not come beforé the full committee of ten men and one woman. The Woodcock report estimated the liquor consumption 10 years | 4fter prohibition as about 40 per cent of what the American people were Gonsuming before adoption of the th amendment. Of the aggregate bootleg production Woodcock —at- tributed only 75,356,718 gallons to s. Wine was estimated at beer at gain 654, 476,800 gallons. i T e e | Legion Briefs ]‘ Boston, Oct. 7 (A) — The most be- | medalled Legionnaire observed amongst the welling throngs is Ser- | geant Jake Allex of Chicago.

They ought up the rear of the 40 and 8" parade. As the parade passed the crowd closed in and it seemed at times that it would surge into the marchers and disrupt the program.

T () — Again charged with wire-tapping, this time in connection with its Nebras- ka inquiry, the senate campaign funds committee planned today a program for further investigations. Demands are before it for a study of expenditures in six states, and Chairman Nye expected to confer with Serator Patterson, republican, Missouri and Senator Wagner, dem- i flocrat, New York, to determine how | hion of Syndicated Waiters, in con- [(ocTat: New For | gress assembled, the term ‘“garcon’ these requests are to be met. Nye Enters Denial In response to the latest accusa- tions against the committee, made by Charles E. Matson of Lincoln, Nebraska, in a letter to Vice Presi- dent Curtis, Nye entered a denial and complained of a “persistence in dragging a red herring across the trail to conceal the worth while things resulting from the commit- tee's investigation.” The chairman said he would re- turn to Nebraska before election and would then subpoena Matson. The trip to Nebraska is planned to de- termine the source of money spent | in behalf of George W. Norris, the Broken Bow grocer who filed but was not permitted to run for the republican nomination against Sena- tor George W. Norris. Matson complained the committee refused to investigate his charge that alleged federal officers were tapping the wires of Nebraska leaders supposedly unfriendly to Senator Norris. Nye replied that Matson had failed to respond when his name was called at the commit- ee's last hearing in Lincoln. Intends to Hear Murray The chairman said today he in- tended to heur W. E. Murray, a representative of the republican na- tional committee, to ascertain what he was doing in Nebraska before the senatorial primary. Nyve has| expressed a suspiclon that some re- publican ledders may have been re- sponsible for the candidacy of the| second George Norris to defeat Sen- ator Norris because of his party ir- regularity. Besides the Nebraska hearing the | committee is faced with investiga- | | tions of senatorial expenditures in | | North Carolina, Tennessee, Mass: | chusetts, Colorado and W |ginia. An inquiry requested , campaign expenditures of Sen | Schall, republican, Minnesota, Nye | sald, may be disposed of here with- | out a trip west. The other states | probably will be assigned to sub- 1 committees.

COBB Noted Author “The old time watch-word— ‘Let the Buyer Beware’ has given way to the modern slogan of confidence ‘Buy in Safety’, and this miracle was wrought by the honesty of manufacture which charac- terizes every fine American product. A notable example of the modern manufacturers’ constant desire to give the public the best is your use of the Ultra Violet Ray in the *Toasting’of LUCKYSTRIKE tobaccps. Anyone can see this as I have seen it on my visit "to your LUCKY STRIKE Plant. It’s magnificent.” LUCKY STRIKE=the finest cigarette you ever smcked, made of the finest tobaccos —the Cream of the Crop—THEN="IT'S TOASTED.” Everyone knows that heat puri- fies and so TOASTING removes harmful irritants that cause throat irritation and coughing. No wonder 20,679 physicians have stated LUCKIES to be less irritating! Everyone knows that sunshine mellows =that’s why TOASTING includes the use of the Ultra Violet Ray. “It's toasted” Your Throat Protection = against irritation — against cough Consistent with its policy of laying the facts before the public, The American Tobacco Company invited Mr. Irvin S. Cobb to personally witness and to review the reports of the distinguished men who have witnessed LUCKY STRIKE’S famous Toasting Process and report his findings.
