Paving Way to Defeat
In November
BY HARRY X. CRAW
Congressman W. C. Hawley Is
after November 4 going to be ad
mittedly out of sympathy with
fully as many of his constituents
as his critics have charged him
with Ignoring, unless all of the ac
credited barometers of political
weather are out of order.
Pleading with numbers of the
county republican committee, meet
ing here Wednesday night to "do
something" for the party's guber
natorial nominee, Hawley sounded I
a keynote of partisan loyalty for
the campaign and declared that
he has no sympathy for bolters. He
lauded Phil Metschan, republican
nominee for governor, as the best
qualified candidate in the field,
painted a picture of the futility of
Independent candadicles and ac

DORAN CLASHES
WITH WOODCOCK
Washington (LP) A controversy
Broke out Saturday between the
two government officials who are
In charge of prohibition enforce
ment, prohibition Director Amos
W. W. Woodcock, and Dr. James
M. Doran. formerly prohibition di
rector and now in charge of the
treasury's industrial alcohol divi
sion. The controversy, which was
started by Doran, was over the
amount of illicit liquor made last
year from alcohol diverted from the
perfumery and toilet water trade.
Taking' isaie with Woodcock's re
cent estimate of 4,000,000 gallons
thus diverted as "many times ex
cessive", Doran charged this esti
mate was "wholly without founda
tion and was not borne out by sta
tistics in the alcohol bureau." The
alcohol commissioner said he felt
Woodcock's statement was a reflec
tion on perfume and toilet water
manufacturers.
These manufacturers have co
operated with the treasury to pre
vent the diversion of alcohol with
drawn for use in that trade, Doran
said.

Last summer he started a gold

three live rainbow trout, which he
also put in the pond. Two of the

Th. nonrl was too small.
But the other day when Joseph
started to clean out tne pond, wnicn

As we stood moping In front

terday a car drove up and park

of these state fair "Exhibitor"

out we knew why she bad the

Jack rushed acres the street all
out of breath. At Woolpert & Hunts
they didn't know anything about
the store being made a voting booth.
So Jack went up and down the

vote until he met a kindly soul
who let him know the election does
