That was opened and that, like the
other, yielded only Alderney milk.
"Now," said Brooks, 'let me see the

The can was opened, however, and
it was found to contain high proof

Davis was arrested, tried and convict

defrauding the government defeated.
Brooks was highly complimented by
Commissioner Rollins, and shortly aft

where he won new laurels In ferreting
out and convicting those who were
cheating Uncle Sam of his legal dues.
