STUBBS WIRE PEOPLES THANKS
TO PRESIDENT.
Government to Change Policy In the
Handling of vioIators of the
Federal Revenue Laws in
Prohibition States.

Topeka.-Governor Stubbs made
public a copy of letter which he re
ceived from Attorney General Wick
ersham, showing that President Taft
had changed the governmental policy
of handling violators Of federal reve
nue. laws in prohibition states. The
copy was forwarded to Governor
Stubs and the original to District
Attorney H. ]. Bone. 1t reads:
H. j. Bone, United States attorn-
ney, Topeka, Kas. Sir: Ny attention
has been called to the attitude of the
department with respect to prosecu-
lions of offenses against the internal
revenue laws. Much complaint has
been made by reason of the fact that
in states the policy of whose laws for
bid the traffic in liquors, the United
States government is clearly aiding
and abetting in the violations of
these laws by compromising proceed
ings for the enforcement of the In
ternal revenue laws, by the mere pay
ment of money penalties. This seems
Stubs has brought the matter to the
attention of the president, who feels
as above indicated with respect to the
matter. You are, therefore, instruct
ed in the future in prosecution for VIC
lations of the internal revenue laws,
as a general policy, to refuse to com
promise all liability by the payment
of money penalties and to endeavor
to secure conviction and imprison-
ment for some reasonable time, in
punishment of this class of offenses.
Respectfully,
GEO. w. WICKERSHAM,
Attorney General.
District Attorney Bone said he had
received the letter. Governor Stubs
wired the president as follows:
To the President: Your letter re-
ceived and on behalf of hundreds of
thousands of law respecting Kansans
I thank you for the position you have
taken in the matter of the enforce
ment of the internal revenue laws.
The letter of the attorney general to
District Attorney Bone, written by
your discretion, covers my conten-
lions completely.

HENRY FORD MAKES SHARP
REPLY TO PRES. CLIFTON
Perfectly Evident Tmat Motive OF a.
L. A. MS Campaign OF Education
is Selfish One. He Says.

The campaign OF education recently
instituted by the Association or
Licensed Automobile Manufacturers in
behalf of the Selden Patent. has
brought d singing reply from Henry
Ford head OF the Ford Motor Co, as
one of the foremost OF the so-calleG
"unrecogniZed" manufacturers.
1T should be. and no doubt Is, evi.
dent TO the public that the real motive
of this war OF the A. l.. 4. VI. against
'unrecoeniZed automobiles is a selfish
one" he says. and Is neither TO pro
tect innocent investors from putting
their money into new enterprises nor
to protect buyers from buying cars fo-
which they will not be able 10 secure
parts, but II is for the purpose OF main
tanning their present extravagant
prices.

encouraging the formation OF new
companies and inducing innocent peo-
pie 10 place their money in these said
new companies on the alluring repre-
sentation OF profits made by the old
companies. He is equally correct
when he says there are a lot OF these
companies doomed 10 failure, but
there are. too. lot OF the ~ varle
ties doomed TO failure. In fact, in
looking oyer the list OF the 70 varie
ties. think ! can safely predict that
there will be more failures among
these makers during the next five
years than there will be among the
so-called unrecognized automobile man
Gfacturers
There isn't manufacturer among

has the facilities such as the Ford
Motor Co. possesses for supplying
parts for its cars.
The Licensed Association does not
grant to BUYERS of licensed cars any
protection that is not granted to buy

need fear an infringement suit. The
