will. It may he heeaune the cuinnilttion lia not Mood far
enonah irmv from ita subject to obtain the right perspective.
In neither lite report nor any of the separate report la asked
or ammcred tho question that DwicJit W. Morrow put to tho
American people, last May: "la it well that larse portion or
our people should conceive of the federal government as all
alien and even a hostile power
OreconUn. l-ortlnnil. Ore. "Thin newspaper . . . believes
cotmreHa may well make the recommendation of the Wicker-
hum commission's majority the test of pnwic i.nuon. . . .
This plan contemplate a MraiKhtforwai d and honest ap
proach to the iu at hand. On it there Is no taint of nulli
fication. . . . Tho Orepontan has been, it believed, an firm and
ronalatent an advocate of prohibition . . . a any. . . . Kut
it would be blind if II failed to jecosnii after the test of
more than a decade that liquor is not banished under na
tional prohibition. "
IhViMrr-Uuanl, Kiiitenr "The Wirkertham report up
holds nearly everythine the. drva have been lishthiR for and
concedes to the wets the one hip point they have been tight
lug for. the possible need of amendment, (everybody ought
to be happy but they won't be. Politically it is smart. It
means that Hoover can run again as a dry but with one band
out to the moist brethren."
Salt Ijifce Telegram "Prohibition enforcement Itself may
be regarded as an utter failure, after 11 years of trial."
.New York Time "The fact of outstanding interest In
the eutire report is that six of the eleven commissioners are
of one' mind as to the one form of modification that should
be adopted, if any."
sipokuno Spokesman Kevk'H "The big wet asso. iation
against the prohibition amendment and its ally, the Modifi
cation League. Inc.. will find no cheer in these declarations."
Ixm Angles Tune "While, ill tho main, the document
Is strongly dry It has the appearance of an effort to com
promise conflicting Tiews which cannot, in fact, be compro
mised and, as such, will suit nobody."
lUlelgli X. C.) Xmvs anil Observer "The conclusions
and recommendations are in accord with the views of those
who believe in the wisdom of national prohibition."
Xew York lNilly 'ows "President Hoover is now def
initely drier Milan the crowd of Individuals he picked to tell
faim and the country that prohibition is O. K."
Indianapolis Mar "The opinions of the members I of the
commission) are Indicative of what might be espected from
any group of Intelligent and conscientious people selected at
random. They are for law enforcement even if the law is
not lut) per cent satisfactory."
BoMun (.lobe "Tho spectacle of a hung jury, whoso 11
members bare submitted 12 verdicts. Chaos, confusion and
contradictions are everywhere in evidence throughout this
SO.OOO-word frnit of !J months of difficult labor."
Itiiladelphia K.nqulrer "While it advocates enforcement.
It gives reasons why enforcement Is next to impossible."
Cleveland Plain Dealer ''Victory on Capitol Hill goes to
the drys on points.
Kansas City Mar "Settled nothing.
New Orleans Item "The report will doubtless prove a
source of political grief to Mr. Hoover."
Atlanta Constitution "The mountain bas labored and
produced a mouse. The chief significsnce of the report is
that Its members are hopelessly divided."
Denver Kocky Mountain Xews "The flood of Wicker
aham reports simply adds fuel to tbe raging prohibition fire."
San Francisco Chronicle "A perfect picture of the state
of the public mind."
Baltimore Kvenlng San ''The Wlckersham report appar
ently has satisfied only one man In the country, namely.
President Hoover. And be apparently, read only the first
paragraph of the conclusions.
Norfolk, Yaw, Ledger Dispatch "Instead of aiding in the
solution of the prohibition problem, the comoiissiun as a
whole bas further befuddled the situation."
l"ort.mouth, 'a.. Star "The eleven members are Just
about as much confused over the workability of prohibition
as is the country in general."
Ktchmond. Va., Xews Leader "Never was a more logical
report brought to a more Illogical conclusion than when the
commission having discredited the eighteenth amendment
with deepest damnation, solemnly affirms that it does not
urge its repeal."

COOKING CROQUETTES
AND ROASTING
COFFEE HAVE MUCH
IN COMMON
Success Depends Upon the
Rule A Little at
a Time
Cartful rooks do not crowd too
many croquettes into the hot fat
because they lower the tempera
ture and then absorb grease. Cook
ing" a lew at a time prevents this.
In roasting; coffee there is simi
lar difficulty when too much is
roasted at once. It is impossible
to control the heat and often, as a
result, part of the hatch is over
done and part underdone This
causes variation in flavor.
xims Bros., following the rule 1
the croquette recipe, roast only
few pounds of coffee at a time
by their patented, continuous proc
ess Controlled Roasting. There
is no variation in the roast be
cause there is accurate control of
the heat, also of the flow of coffee
through the roasters. A rare, uni
form flavor is developed such as no
other coffee has.
Grocers everywhere sell Mills
Bros. Coffee in vacuum cans that
keep it fresh. Air. which destroys
the flavor of coffee, is removed
from the cans when they are
packed, and kept out. Ordinary
cans, even if air-tipht, do not keep
coffee fresh. Ask for Hills Bros.
Coffee by name and look for the
Arab the trade-mark on the can.
