Father Of 18th
Amendment Says
Prohi to Return
(By The Associated Press)
WASHINGTON, D. C. Jan. 16,
—Senator Sheppard, author of
the 18th Amendment, predicted
today, the return of national pro.

Charles Alexander
Suffers Stroke
Chas. Alexander, pioneer Nome
ite and sourdough, was taken to
the hospital yesterday, from his
home on B Street, suffering from
an attack of paralysis. He is re
ceiving attention from the staff
of the Maynard Columbus hospi
tal, which reports his condition
considerably improved today.The
attack centered on his legs, mak
ing it impossible for him to walk.
Is Incapicitated
We called up “Nosey” today
about his column but he was in
capacitated and said he would
not have any copy for today’s
issue, but would be prepared for
Monday's publication, he hoped.
As a maitter of news, “Nosey”
seems to be taking the public by
storm, and from reports obtain
ed, his column is receiving wide
spread interest. Hardly a day
goes by without the column ap
pearing, and each time it has
something of special interest to
many persons. Look for Mon
day's ‘‘Nosey” column.
