LADY ASTOR S BEER BILL NOT
TAKEN SERIDUSLYIN ENGLAND
UQNDpX, Aug. 20. Lady Aa;or's i bp served with' bw and wlnoa with
liquor bill Is regarded by tie liquor
interests as a huge Joko In fact
so much so that they hnve made
serious efforts to hinder its passage.
The most persistent opponents ot
the bill when it was first introluced
in the commons now regard the
amended form so harmless that some
ot them even went so far nj to sup
port it. , V . '
The original Intention ot the bill
was to prohibit the sul0 ot Intoxi
cating liquors to persons undo IS
years uf age, heavy penalties being
provided for infringements. The
commt.teo in charga of tho bill,
however. Inserted, the vital words
"knowingly under' "eighteen" oad
now the proprietor cannot be fined
or arrested unless it Is proved that
he knew the consumer to be under
age. 1 . ''
Another amendment to the bill
permits persons ' under IS years to
pounds of water pressure for a num
ber of places. Under the crushing
test It showed more strength than
the concrete, breaking at ' 4225
pounds. '
There was a tensity to the at
mosphere in 'the pipe' yard
The
company has about 110.000 worth of
pipe ready for the job. The total
contract required about 115.000
worth. If It Is left on their hands
it means a 'struggle to absorb the
loss, and perhaps a damage suit
against the city or contractor, or
both. ' All elements in the situation
were active.
Depends On Agreement
Knowles,' the '' manager, stated
that the local plant was ereotcd on
the strength 'of an agreement that
tbe city would use concrete pipe if
it met tho specification require
ments. He said that the city's eng
ineer and Inspector hadvisited .the
plant,- seen the materials going Into
the concrete, and had said no word
against the product until he was
loaded up with, two-thirds of the
amount required tor tbe job.
In fact, trom more sideri. than
Knowles, there was . a disposition
noticeable to suspect the presence of
an Ethiopian in the wood pile, or
perhaps concealed under the piles
of pipe that tilled ' the yard.
G. C. Lorenz, tbe contractor, de
nied that a switch to the clay pipe,
meant appreciable profit to him. Ho
said' that the lower freight rate now
over the time when he made his es
timate might mean a gain of some
thing under $1,000 for the job,
but he declared the report that he
stood to make J3000 if the vitrified
pipe was used was false.
iSo the colored gen'Iemun remains
hidden. If Indeed he bo more than a
figment of Imagination.. Still' he
Was close In tho background this
inorning,' so close' than ho seemed
to have materialized In some minds,
It the comments of the crowd ex
pressed their truse feelings. '

4 "Land development" schemes frequently
do not pan put. At best it is a long time before
any money' comes in from sales. Investment in
"new companies" that are going to "sell by mail"
should be generally avoided. '
6. Patent rights and processes. It is rarely
the patentee who makes the money.
7. "New manufacturing methods" should al
ways be closely checked and investigated.' '
8. An investment requiring a quick decision
is often a fake. If there isn't' sufficient time' to
sleep over it,", something is probably wrong. '
9. "Special inducements" in pash discpunts
or stock bonusps urging you to be one of the first
tq invest are suspipipus symptoms.
10. "Tips" alleged to land you'"on thp ground
floor, are rarely to be taken. Those who arc "on
the ground floor" will monopolize the opportunity..
11. "Playing the stock market on margin"
and all other forms of speculation are decidedly
not for the small investor. Beware of the "bucket
