Jerries Want Stronger Beer HAMBURG, Germany 01.19 German brewmutert, faced with a declining market at home and abroad, are petitioning Allied authorities for permission to put some pre-war pep back into thelr beer. German beer has come a long way from the watery brew turned out Just after the war. Last au tumn's improved grain supplies made it possible t increase alco holic strength to 75 per cent of the pre-war brew. But Germans, and foreigners, still are not drink ing it In large quantities. British zone brewery directors at a meeting in Dortmund, found that "German consumption of beer is way below pre-war standard and there is no hope of better business in the near future. The directors announced that they were working at only 25 per cent of capacity. They asked the German economic council to re lease another 350,000 tons of grain to brew 350,000,000 gallons of peace-time quality beer. One thing besides the qquality that keeps Germans from drinking beer is the price. Pre-war a pint cost the equivalent of three Amer ican cents. Now it Is twenty. Beer hall waiters no longer automatic ally set a pint" before a newly- arrived customer with the certain ty that that's what he wants. Now they wait until the customer or ders one. . Governor Back's Free Indians PHOENIX, Ariz. U Gov. Dan E.

Garvey suggested that federal appropriations be made directly to the states and that the states take over education, road con struction, policing and other ad ministrative problems of the reservations. He pointed out that the Navajo and Hopl reservations were rich in natural resources and that the Indians would be able in time to pay taxes like all citizens.

He was talking to about 1000 of the Native Daughters of the Golden West when he pawed one foot In the dirt and bellowed: "You California women are the most beautiful in the entire na tion." The girls just sat there and beamed. And then Watson really warmed up to his subject. He gave them all a wink and said: "I'm delighted, simply delighted to find myself the only male in this room with the doors closed! The ladles like that, too. Then, still giggling, they finally got down to conference business. flnsrtrtal rapoattUllCy for fee reservations. ADM. HARRIS DIES NEW YORK C) Rear Adm. Frederic R.
