FREIGHT EMBARGO
IS BLAMED UPON
FOR VOLSTEAD LAW
WASHINGTON, Nov. %19.—Prohi
bition Is directly responsible for
the freight embargo upon Califor
nia juice grapes coming to New
York, fruit receivers said today.
The increase in the demand for
wine grapes in New York has
grown so prodigiously since the
enactment of the Eighteenth
Amendment that an embargo has
been resorted to for several year's
t orelieve congestion in the receiv
ing freight yards.
The first year of the amend
ment, they .said, California cut
down their crop, believing that
their business was gone. There
after they planted new vines, and
the juice grape supply, especially
to New York, has multiplied stead
ily. The fruit is retailed principally
by hucksters to -the foreign popula
tion of the city.
In August this year for handl
ing incoming California grapes was
made in Jersey . City, where three
yards were set apart, in the hope
that shifting the yards and the
grape auctions from Manhattan
would so facilitate handling the
fiuit that an embargo could be
avoided. Table grapes are still tak
en care of without difficulty on the
New York side.
But last Friday, with 912 twenty
ton carloads in the yards across
the river, with about 1250 cars
more within range of the city and
with the diminished activity of the
TAILORING
Come In and Get Measured for
a Suit. Guaranteed Fit.

Today it was reported that rapid

WASHINGTON LIKELY TO BE
BUSINESS MEETING CENTER
WASHINGTON, Nov. 19—Wash
ington may soon add to its other
attainments that of the business
meeting center of the country. The
recently opened auditorium in the
new home of the Chamber of Com
merce of the United States, its of
ficials here say, will soon become
the rendezvous of special lines in
the commercial world. They point
to the gathering of the Chamber of
Commerce secretaries from over the
country in the auditorium as the
forerunner of similar conclaves,
where business men of kindred in
terest will discuss their common
problems in a home of their own.
As evidence of the diversification
of these special units within the
national chamber, the organization’s
rosier reveals the varied scope of
the activities of Mr. American Busi
ness Man. The American Cotton
Waste Exchange, the American Spice
Trade Association, The American
Tack Manufacturers’ Association, the
National Selected Morticians, the In
ternational Acetylene Association,
the Hydraulic Society, the Better
Bedding Alliance of America, the
National Aircraft Underwriters As
sociation, the Compressed Air So
ciety, the National Association of
Taxicab Owners, the Plate Glass In
surance Exchange of New York,
and the United States Trade-Mark
Association appear in the litany of
business units.
The National chamber’s officials
expect that organizations such as
these will gather in the auditorium
on the first floor of the new “work
shop of American business.” Thus,
they think, will Washington take
leadership at the focus point for
commercial discussion.
Men are more convincing liars than
women, declares a Danish professor,
who attributes this to the fact that
men have had more practice.
