PLAN CAMPAIGN
ON LIQUOR SALES
Police VIII Attempt to Stop
Illegal Traffic in the
District.

That the police contemplate a general
campaign against the alleged Illegal
liquor traffic in houses south OF the
Avenue is evinced by the fact that Off
Gals of the Police Department have
been compiling a list OF all such resorts
having an internal revenue license.
For several days, il Is said. a repre-
sentative OF the department has been
going over the books OF the collector
OF internal revenue, selecting the names
and addresses OF all such houses. It
was learned from an authentic source
today thai this list contains about sew
enty names. The theory on which the
police is working IS that places where
Internal revenue licenses are granted 20
allow the occupants TO keep large guam
titles of liquor on hand do not provide
such liquor for private use
Complaints have been numerous lately
that these places have been retailing
liquor. The prohibition movement in
the District has probably been instru-
mental IN producing these complaints.
and Il IS the Intention OF the depart
ment 20 learn ~ there IS sufficient evil
dence 10 warrar making wholesale ar
rests. u Is understood that II IL Is
found that the houles having Internal
revenue licenses have been retailing
liquor arrests will be made and the
parties prosecuted for violation OF the
excise law.
Under the law II IS necessary TO have
an Internal revenue license 10 keep
liquor on the premises. To retail the
liquor IL Is necessary 20 have a license
from the excise board.
Charges have been made frequently
during the last few years that disreputa-
bic houses were violating the excise law
by selling Hq8Or without a license. Here
