OH, YEH, SPEAKING OF ECLIPSES! BY HARRY B. HUNT NBA Service Writer WASHINGTON ? New* (tun Ltr Lyon CJ. Tyler. w>n of former Preaidetit John Tyler, has become a father at the nRp of 72, recalls to old-tlmcrs In Washington tho story ? nowulmost a legend ? of how President Tyler left Washington at the end of his term, 80 years ago There were few feigned friend ships between political enemies In those daya. Tyler had no love for James K. Polk, who had been elected to suc ceed him, and he didn't care who knew It. Ills term had been a tempestu ous one. In the course of which hts whole cabinet. ex,cspttnic only Daniel Webater, had walked out on him, and he had fow real friendship* in Congress. So when the morning of Mar^h 4. 1846, arrived. Tyler announced that he was not going to partici pate In the Inauguration of Polk, but would take the morning' boat do'rn the Potomac on the way to his Virginia country home. ess TEN o'clock, then, found the de parting preeldent. hi* bride of a year, a wiuadron of oolyrad servants and m lot of luggage up pronchlng tfie whurf where the Potomac steamer was all ready u? ca*t off. Just as the presidential en tourage alighted from their ? barouchea at the head of the , wharf, the whistle sounded, the ? bell rang "clang, clang," the rnoor j Ing rope* were ?*st looew and the ?tenmahlp began to move slowly ' away Someone In the crowd who sited up the situation meed down the wharf shouting. "Hello. hello! Uiptalii! Hold on. there. President Tyler a coming ? Hold on!" The captain locked about hi* hand on the engine bell ? "llokl on for President Tyle?,~ the man shouted again The captain grinned. He woe an old Clay Whig Why ahould he back up hla txmt for a Democrat* "President Tyler be danged." he shouted in answer.

Dry l-aw und Man Kijiiiilly as Z< alou Pn st'ul (?oiu<ni?Mioiirr lo Talic 1 1 i- I'lucr Bt DAVID 1JWRKX(T. dent CooHdge does not condone | the carrying of a flask of liquor on the hip. An entirely errone ous impression was spread, it was said at the White House today, as a result of the press conference there Friday. Mr. Coolidge was simply trying to make a comparison between the varying degrees of seriousness in violating th.' Volstead law par ticularly with respect to the pen alties that should l>e applied. His att? nt ion. had been called to the provisions of the hill pending be fore Congress which would make It mandatory for Juditcs to impose jail sentences on first offenders who hnd been couvlcted of violat ing I he Volstead law. The reason for this requent on the part of the "drys" is that again and again men who have been engaged in ??bootlegging" have pleaded "Aral ofT'-nse" and have been released only to assume another name. When convicted in another - ciiy they have again pleaded "first of fense." Likewise the men high up in the bootleg rings have taken advantage of this loophole to en gage new employes who if caught j would not be jailed because it was their "first offense." In order to catch the "bootleg ger" and his lieutenants, however, the passage of n law compelling Judges to impose jail sentences ou all first offenders would makej it necessary to inflict such pun ishment on any one whether he was involved in the traffic of li quor or simply happened to be caught with a flask of liquor in , his or her possession. This, Mr. Cool id ye thinks, would be excessive. He f?-ols that there are many violations of the! dry law which when compared < to others are not so serious. He J supposes, for instance, that the (possession of a flask might not be serious whereas undertaking to make money out of the sale of liquor would.be more Berlous. Roth are violations of the law! and are strongly disapproved by, the President, but for the first i class of offense the judges are) vested with a certain discretion and they can impose jail sentenc es wherever they think the .carry-' ing of a flask of liquor is part of an organized system of transport] tation and sale. The Government cannot afford to hire enough prohibition agents to search the peraons of Individ- . uals suspected of carrying flasks. | At no time has such a policy been j contemplated. The Government's program has been to stop the smuggling of liquor, the illicit manufacture of liquor and the 1 traffic ill Intovic.iut: by "iKiutl1 | Kern." If tin* supply at the 1 source ca it I"' ri'duci'il tin* tlov ernmeut hoM that the ? ?ff? ct on those who art- ens-ajjed In ir'ii'ir violations of th?' law will nil i mately I"' to reduce that number considerably. Mr. Oordldse really hasn't uiv on much consideration to ilu de tailed provisions ?<f 1 various hills iH'ndilm in Oon^re.'s with r? - spect to prohibition enforcement and th?' expressions ^ivou as In liia attitude by a White Ibu..* spokesman wtiv in tin- nature of curbstone opinions which may or may not be chaim< d after Con gress has had an opportunity to act Anally on the proposal' be fore it. Incidentally then* sei ms little doubt nowthat I'resiib r?t Coolnlue is cahtini; about for a sue censor to' Roy Haynes, the head ?? f t!:?* pro hibition unit. Mr. Ilaynes lias contemplated resignation for soni : time and made preparations many months ato to >vind up bis affairs here on the fourth of March. It always Impairs enforcement to have It known far in advance that .there are to be. changes in the I management o? the prohibition bureau, ho relatively little has been said about It. As tb?* fourth of March approaches, however, it can said with certainty that Mr. Haynes Is restrains; and that i he will be succeeded bv a man 1 who Is no b ss zealous in enforc ing the law. Mrs. C.
