When beer returned, a million pounds of aluminum foil were or dered Just to make those little discs that go Inside bottle cape. In addition, large orders have been placed for aluminum barrels. It seems pasteurization of beer Is nec essary sometimes to prevent addi tional fermentation en route. They dip the metal barrel in hot water. It holds the heat that would nut penetrate a wooden container. The glass Industry la matching along oward prosperity In a valiant way.

Our national cash register la get ting the bell run pleasantly from beer, also Treasury revenue receipts have Jumped from nothing to. well beyond tho estimates made by the budget bureau as a preliminary argument.

Franklin Roosevelt, Jr.. was telling a lot of anecdotes at a White House luncheon table the other .day. They had to do with the exper iences of the two press boats that followed his father and htm on their recent cruise up the North Shore. Young Franklin told with gusto how one boat waa manned by the "regulars", from the White House press room while the other accom modated the "prima, donnas. His sister, airs. Anna Da 11. kicked him under the table several times but the recent Oroton graduate per sisted to the bitter end.

Henry Bascom 8 tea gall, a most Important member of the house' under the new deal. There's one funny payoff In con nection with the impending vote on prohibition repeal In this state. Federal workers here In the district who have an absentee voting right are rushing around trying to find out which candidates on the ballot are dry and wet. The ballot doesn't show. Uncle Sam ought to hang out three balls. He's a pretty good money lender according to a current bal ance of the domestic books. (We won't mention foreign loans.) The reconstruction finance corpor ation's personal books show slightly over une-half of one per cent In over due payments from Its emergency ad vances to all types of business. In dustry and local government. A banker would tell you this was collateral Is held In all past-due cases that could be foreclosed. The R. F. C. doesn't want to grab collateral of course. That wouldn't help business. The board of directors will stand instead on a record of more than two and a quarter billion dollars dis bursed with collections as promised of nearly a quarter of that amount. Look out for President Roosevelt next month when he gets to Hyde Park. He has a brand new tcHirlng car for use in and around his family estate on the Hudson.

The fact that Schermerhorn had heretofore borne & good reputation and possessed scores of friends, par ticularly among the older residents of the county, is said to have weighed heavily with the Jury. Admissions Damaging The state Introduced evidence to show that Schermerhorn was arouna and about the rear of the courthouse on the night of the vote -stealing. A statement showing conversation be tween Schermerhorn and th Sexton brothers, 1n the city Jail, was admit ted by Schermerhorn as 'practically correct,' though he denied he whis pered any part of It. Schermerhorn also admitted that he had held con ferences In his private office with Glenn, Brecheen- La DleU, Fehl, and other asserted leaders of the plot, relative to tbs securing of bonds be, fore they ware arrested. Counsel for Schermerhorn also ad mitted In closing arguments that "soma of Schermerhorn a associations have been unfortunate." The defense counsel stacked the state police, and "the damnable press of Jackson coun ty, which has firmly and determined ly prejudiced the public, against the ballot-thefts and the defendants." Refused to Resign R. H. Burton, one of the state wit nesses testified that he had conferred with Schermerhorn. on several occas ions, and endeavored to have bun "resign and come clean." In the be lief that leniency would be extended by the prosecution. Schermerhorn re fused the proffer, with the words. I went into the office clean, and will go out the same way."

The girl, a recent graduate from an exclusive seminary at TVcoma. was pulled from the water near a dock after police and firemen had been summoned by a deckhand on a nearby freighter. She was rushed to the city emergency hospital, and later booked at the city Jail as an 'attempted suicide.
