CHARGES AGAINST
DRY LAW VOICED
(Continued From Page One)
hlbitlonlsts argued during the war
the liquor Issue was "not the tem
perance Issue" but was needed as a
war measure.
"An Economic Issue"
"It Is not the temperance Issue
now," he said. "It is an economic ia-
fiue to fight the depression."
uingnam saia ine promotion jaw
had Increased Intoxication and the
amount of drinking In "the smaller
places" was alarming.
He cited the number of arrests In
Medford, Mass., for drunkenness as
an example. In 1914, he said there
were only wa arrests ior urunicenness
while in 1930 there were 419.
Other cities he mentioned include
ed: Vlcksburg, Mass., Little Rock,
Ark., Oak Park, 111., Davenport, Iowa,
Mlnot, N. D., Denver, Idaho Falls,
Idaho, Albuquerque, N. M., Ogden,
Utah, and Seattle.
This, he said, showed that drink
ing had Increased, particularly among
the young.
In St. Louis and other cities with
great brewing Interests, Bingham
contended, prohibition had vastly in
creased drinking.
"Nothing that I say, however," ne
added, "nothing I can say will change
the ardent drys but the making of
alcohol In any kitchen is easy."
He urged turning tne "wnoie ques
tion back to the states" and added
that financial experts estimated that
If the tax on liquor had Increased in
proportion to tobacco taxes it would
yield si.uuu.uuu.uuu a year.
Bingham declared it is "impossible
to make the descendants of genera
tions of temperate drinkers believe;
there Is anything morally wrong in
drinking." I

CONGENITAL DEFECTS
The study of the development of
a many-celled living being from a
common cell Is called embryology,
and the science of embryology has
a unique fascination.
The cell resulting from Inception
of the reproductive process has a
phenomenal impetus for growth and
multiplication.
Most of this Impetus Is spent be
fore the Infant is born.
The single cell, with which, as we
say, life begins, multiplies so rap
Idly and so extensively that during
the time of development before
birth its weight Increases nearly a
billion fold.
In all the years of life after his
birth the average human being in
creases in weight only up to ap
proximately 20 times that at birth.
But there Is still a further dif
ference between existence before
and existence after birth.
The former has a qualitative
character which the latter lacks.
The child grows up to be a man or
woman. - -.... -
True the child is essentially dlf-
rerenc irom tne adult. But a funda
mental pattern of eyes, nose, head,
arms, legs, among other things, pre
vails throughout.
In the period before birth, how
ever, we begin with a cell, and
from this cell there ultimately de
velop all those marvelous mecha
nisms that go toward making a hu
man being.
The scientist who Is un will Ine to
account for things and events by
all Inclusive supernatural forces
asks whence comes this systematic
direction, this expert guidance that
evolves an amazing complicated liv
ing being from a single cell.
Ana ne marvels, not at the un
common failures of normal pre
natal development, but that they
are not more common.
Many experiments have been per
formed In an attempt to answer
this whence and wherefore. But
the mystery lo still profound.
Some practical value has come
out of these studies bearing on con-

W) Police statistics released here

ber of cases arising from alcoholic

hibition last month.

Under the riew liquor laws during

Senate Committee .
Favors Plan For
Indian Welfare
' WASHINGTON, Apr. 14 (ff) Legis
lation under which the federal gov
ernment would pay the cost of
schooling, charitable relief, law en
forcement and highway construction
among the Indians was recommended
Wednesday by a senate Indian sub
committee. The report followed months of in
vestigation by the committee headed
by Senator Stelwer, Republican, Ore
gon, in an effort to work out a plan
of cooperation under which the
United States may make its equit
able contribution toward carrying on
governmental activities In the areas
in which the tax exempt Indian
lands are located.
The recommendations reportod to
the full committee called also for
authorization for pnyment by the
United States of the proportionate
cost In the construction of school
buildings, for the United States to
contract with local governmental
agencies to provide health service and
Indigent relief; for the local agencies
to afford necessary law enforcement
under a plan by which the United
States will pay the cost; and for tho
United States to proceed with de
velopment of highways, paying the
full cost where they are built pri
marily for benefit of the Indians on
Indian lands, and a proportionate
share If partly for tho benefit of
whites.
The recommendations : proposed
that the secretary of Interior make
a report on law enforcement among
the Indians and recommend legis
lation for extending1 state laws to
them "on all those reservations where
the Indians are already partially as
similated by the whites and where
the Indians have progressed suffi
ciently to live under the white man's
law."

How To Select Your Evergreens .
Almost all of the evergreens are
valued for their distinct shape and
symmetry. In selecting and group
ing evergreens it Is well to consider
their shape If a pleasant result Is to
be secured.
Evergreens can be divided accord
ing to shape into six general groups,
A classification such as this makes
It much easier to select the right
evergreen for the right place. It
must be remembered that the mem
bers in each group are alike only
In shape or outline. Each has Its own
characteristics and may be a dwarf
grower to tall grower according to
its ciass.
Group 1. This broadly pyramidal
group or tne Christmas tree type em
braces quite a few of tho common
evergreens including some oi tne
firs, hemlocks, spruces and pines.
As a rule they make large trees at
maturity and make most perfect
specimens when growing without In
terference. This class Is good for
lawn groups, shelter planting, avenues
or specimens.
Group a. The evergreens in this
group are usually medium height
growers suitable for backgrounds and
foundation plantings. They are use
ful toglve height at corners and ac
cent at each side of a doorway, gate
way or garden entrance. Various va
rieties of arborvitaes, junipers, taxus
and rettnosporas are Included In this
group.
Group 3. These are the upright,
columnar varieties which Introduce
an exclamatory note in the landscape,
wherever an accent plant is needed or
whero formal effects are striven for,
these plants may be fittingly used.
The Junipers and arborvitaes both
offer such narrow types.
Group 4. In the family of ever
greens thereare many fine dwarf
varieties which grow more or less
globular. These are very useful for
specimen planting or for foundation
planting, either alone or In combina
tion with taller growing varieties
planted in back. The Mugho pine and
Globe arborvitao belong to thlB group.
Group 5. The evergreens In this
group constitute an Intermediate
stage between creeping Juniper and
upright growers. All are dwarf and
consequently make desirable plants
for foundation planting. Two of the
most commonly known of this group
aro Pflteer's juniper and Savin Juni
per. Group 6. The creeping variety of
Juniper which constitute this group
are at home on slopes where they can
spread out at will or wherever a low
carpet of evergreen foliage is desirable.
