WHOLESALE LIQUOR (
DEALERS MUST GO
-Elimination of These .Dealers .Will (
Simplify Enforcement Prohibition
Law.
Washington, August 6.--limination
by the government of the -wholesale r
liqutor dealer as a means of simplify- I
Ing prohibition enforcement appeared v
a posstbility tonight with the an- I
nouncenent by Plbhibition Commis
stoner Kramer that the issue of )
wholesale permits in the future would
be "rigidly restricted."
Mr. Kraner declared that the whole
sale tratlle presented the greatest
'problem with which enforcement of
flcials were confronted. Wholesale
dealers, lie asserted, resorted to sub
terfuges which perplexed government
agents and which made the dry law
difficult to enforce. This pihase of pro
bilition enforcement .was said to 'have
developed consideration by ofilcials of
the internal revenue bureau of a iplan
by which the quantity dealers would
-be driven out of business entirely and
the liquor transfer made direct from
lbonded warehouses to retailer or con
sumer.
Although no decision has been
reached and none probably will be Im
when wholesale licenses are reissued
for the next calendar year is expect
ed to bring the question to a head. Ap
plications for wholesale licenses must
be in the hands of federal officials by
October 1, giving the government the
three months prior to January 1, in
which to investigate the responsibil
ity of the applicant. Oflcials sail that
regardless of the bureaus dedision
with respect to eliminattion -of the
wholesalers, the number of licenses
issued for the ensuing year would be
smaller. In event the government
permits the (wholesalers to continue
in business, it was said, a policy of
investigating the record of applicant
"and all of his affairs," would be eiml
ployed.
Treasury records reveal that more
wholesale licenses arc. in existence
now than immediately Prior to the
effecti:ve date of the Volstead act.
Commissioner Kramer said that while
the wholesalers were being watched
closely drastic action had heen iumade
necessary in certain localities.
No licenses have been issued in
Chicago for wholesale traffic in tih
last six weeks, Mr. Kramer said. 0th
er of!elals reported that sinlnar
cheeks had been placed on the num
her of wholesale dealers elsw1ere,
Mr. Kramer's visit of the New Yorl
district early this week was said tc
bave resulted in a tightening of re
strictions there.
The situation in Halt imore result
ing from the ruling of Attorney en
oral Armstrong that no Mlarylan&
state or Haltimore munii pal olicia
could aid in (r.y law enforcenmen
work has compelled the transfer W,
additional federal agents to the Mary

iristensen Deites Charges That
Farmer-Labor Party is Controlled
by I. W. W.
New York, Aug. 5.-An announce
lent' that the committee of 48 was
reparing to withdraiw formally from
.11 connection with the Farmer-Labor
>arty of which Parley P. Christensen t
3 the presidential nominee, today fol
owed closely charges by A. H. Alc
jollem and Charles A. Weaver, who,
n resigning as officials and members
)f the Farmer-Labor organization de
3lared the party was controlled by the1
Industrial Workers of the World.
Reorganization of the Committee
:f 48 along the original lines of the
party will be undertaken at a mect.
Ing of the executive committee next
Mlonday according to Allen MleCurdy,
secretary of the 48'ers. In a statement
issued today he said the Farmer-La
bor party is a "radical" organization
and does not adhere to the princi
ples upon which the Committee of
418 attempted to build a national iparty
Replying to the charge of AlcCol
lem and Weaver, Mr. Christensen de
clared the Farmer-Labor party is
not under I. 'W. W. control, but is
composed of "every day Americans,
seekinkg relief Irom Ithe intolerablo
economic autocracy obtaining in this
country."
In a formal statement Mr. Christen
sen challenged the political integrity
of MeCollem and Weaver.
ir. 'McCurdy delivered the keynote
address at the Chicago convention
last month when the Committee of 48
attempted through amalgamation
with the Labor and Single Tax par
ties and adherents of other political
creeds, to form a party which should
"oppose 1with equal firmness both re
action and revolution."
"The labor party of the United
States , \rI. MeC urdy said, ("started
out to create a class iparty which
should appeal only to organized work
ers to the end that control of the
American Federaltion of Labor should
pass from its present leadership into
that of the insurgents and to intro.
duce guild Socialism into American
life.
"It is plain to any Intelligent per
son that it is impossible for these two
to nieet, joli, merge or amalgamnate.
Oil and water do not mix."
.\r. Ce.\lurdy asserted that whil
the Committee of -18 had been nomli
nally represented at the convention
which nominated .\Mr. Christ nsein.
most of the leaders and delegates had
gone to their homes when they "saw
that the principles of the Forty Eight
ers had been swallowed completely by
the radicalism of the Laborites.
