DALLAS, Feb. 23. — Alcoholic
poisoning, which has resulted in the
death of four persons in Dallas
during the last few months, has
also instilled such a fear of death in
the minds of moonshine imbibers
that illicit liquor traffic has been
reduced 50 per cent, according to
Charles Becke, prohibition enforce-
ment officer.
“People are getting deathly afraid
of moonshine whisky since they
have read in the newspapers of the
four deaths resulting from its use.'*
said Mr Becke, "and seizures of
"corn" are becoming few and far
between. Raids are being made
frequently, but as a rule they net
nothing."

Danger of a shortage in the Aus-
tin water supply with the coming
of the warm months was pointed
out to members of the city council
Thpraday morning by Commission-
er Walter L. Eyres, who empha-
sized the necessity of some new
supply being found to augment that
available at present.
Austin is now using practically
the capacity of the present sources
of supply, said Commissioner Eyres,
and is running on a margin so nar-
row as to be wiped out with the
advent of the first dry weather.
Flooding of the sand beaches, re-
sorted to last summer, will in all
probability have to be again em-
ployed this year, said the water and
light commissioner, but at a much
earlier date than was necessary last
year.

“If the Spicewood test well does
not turn out successful, something
has got to be done pretty quick,"
he told members of the commission.

FOREIGN WAR VETERANS
PLAN BASEBALL DIAMOND
Approval by the city council of
plans of the Edwin G. Hutchings
post. Veterans of Foreign Wars, to
erect a baseball park and grand-
stand in the 1700 block on Fast
First St, was asked Thursday
morning by Joe Dary and Max
Schramm, member* of the post.
The veterans said that they had
appeared before the council to as-
certain as to whether or not there
was spy objection on the part of
the city council to the establish-
ment of the park within the city
limits.
The council said in reply that as
far as the individual member* of
the body were concerned, there was
no objection to the stablishment of
the park, but advised the secur-
ing of permission from residents in
the vicinity. It was explained by
th* representatives of the veterans
that Sunday and week-day games
will be played in competition with
similar activities at Lake Austin
park, the home diamond of the
American Legion.

Need Art Minister.
"As a nation we need a national
minister of art to make sure that
we save for posterity examples of
the best work of our American art-
5 ists. We need a national museum,
patterned perhaps on the French
system, under which the provincial
museums collect the work of living
artists, exchange them with each
I other from time to time, and finally
send the best to the Luxembourg
museum. At th* death of the art-
ist whose works in the Luxem-
bourg whfch are deemed worthy are
placed in the Louvre for all time.

| schools better instruction in art:
| or at least, we need instruction of
some kind in the appreciation of
art. We need a course in the fine
arts in our university, for it would
| have no competitor nearer than

"As a city we need an art mu-

imagine a museum having its be- '
ginning* in a well lighted room of
the library. From this, the begin-
nings of a collection, it is do far
cry to a separate building I can
imagine that in a town of this six*

who would give $100, and a thou-
