Washington. March 21.—'The antl-

til the opinion by former Attorney
General Palmer, holding that beer may
be prescribed an u medicine in over-
rule, Wayne It. Wheeler, general
rotuiMd for the league, announced In
n formal statement. The league, he
added, hu* a number of plans to be
used, as the occasion demands.
"it is an astounding proposition
that beer can be sold at soda fountains
with all that it impllew," Mr. Wheeler
said in reference to a recent statement
by the former attorney general us the
effect of his opinion. "The last state-
ment makes clearer than over before
the vice in the opinion."
Mr. Whcolyr declared that even If
beet may be prescribed as a medicine
the law required the utmost care on
the part ot the physician and the
keeping 11f a careful record of all pre-
scriptions.
The records of the doctor and the
druggist lire open to inspection," he
continued.
"No oil! but a licensed pharmacist
may 11II the prescription. The doctor
or diugglst may have his permit re-
yoked at any time he violates the law.
These reatrlctlonn will prevent the
sale of beer at soda fountains. The
hazard in the triide will be such that
reputable physicians and druggists will
refuse to handle this booxe medicine
in most places."

Paris, March 21.—Senator Henri
Bcrengel makes the following state-
ment today In the Paris Midi, on the
budget situutioii.
France is heading straight toward
biinkrutcy unless severe economies
are made. First, we must reduce the
expense ol state. All ministries must
cut down everywhere and eliminate
all functionaries except those abso-
lutely indispelisible. Mere we a I rea I,v
have cut down more than a billion
francs, but it is not enough, there must
be 4|any milliards. The treaty ol
\ ersallles must be applied entirely and
il Premier Ifrland keeps Ills promise,
twenty milliards annually can be ha I
from this source. Finally It is neci's
sury that France shall work so that
sin- produce all she can produce, bit',
nothing abroad that she can get at
home, or the colonies. Seven milliard
mutually can be saved by Improving
national production.
