Labor's Com

Trend to Beer
Believes Modification of Volstead Act
Is Possible Soon Sur
veys Congress.
Phihwlelnhln Pn Anril 2fi La
bor's national committee for the mod
ification of the Volstead act sees thej
legalization of light wines and beer
as a possibility in the next congress.
In a report of a congressional BUT- j
vey released tonight the modifica-1
tion group which meets in conference
here Monday, asserted a majority in
both houses favors modification.
Tho report, written by Matthew
Woll, vice-president of the Ameri
can Federation of Labor, and L M.
Ornburn, president of the Clgar-mak-ers'
International union, stated that
rnly 17 members of the senate and
45 representatives were prohibition
"die bards" and that some of them
were "listed among the most valued
customers of Washington's well
known boot lessors."
"Victory in Sight."
Asserting that prohibition had "re
anliPil In the transfer of the corner
saloon to the home. In the corrup
tion of our youth, apparent corrup
tion cf our judiciary and enforce
ment officers and creation of boot
leggers, gangsters and racketeers,"
the report added:
"There are few service.; which can
be rendered In these days of depres
sion which will be more helpful to
so great a number as prevailing up
on congress to modify the Volstead
act.
"Our survey indicates that victory
is in sight If those who have volun
tarily enlisted in this case will make
their wishes known to the senators
and congressmen from their tates.
"Admit Inability."
"Even those who are opposed to
the modification Of the Volstead act
privately admit that the inability
of the government to enforce the
law, to control the bootleggers, the
gangsters and the racketeers, to pre
vent the bootleggers from distribut
ing vile liquors to high school boys
and girls and to our colleges has re
sulted in many of those churches,
which, of late years, have spent most
of their time and effort in opposing
modification of the Volstead act. be

limited few for their maintenance
and support." World-Herald.

It would not make any difference which gaso

expensive if all gasolines were made to equal
standards of excellence.
But gasolines vary widely in quality and worth
in the power and mileage they give in their
ability to start your motor promptly in their
freedom from sulphur compounds which attack
