ATLANTA'S LID
Will BE MADE
VERY TIGHT NOW
war WAGED ON SALOONS
May Result in Open Fight
Next Year

Atlanta, Nov. THE opening gun
has been fired in the fight against At
lanta locker clubs. The first arrests
have been made, and the police say
the crusade will go much further ut
Ionce.
P. Cheney, cashier of the Metropol
itan club, and ]. L. Parks, bartender,
and M. A. Trout, an alleged non-mem-
Der and recipient of bottle of whisky
from the club, have been arrested.
The charge is selling whiskey.
The clubs defense, it is stated, will
be that the quart of whiskey was sent
out on the order of Parks who is a
member of the club. 1t is contended,
therefore, that the transaction was
technically within the law This the
police deny and say furthermore that
they can produce other cases against
this and other clubs, showing the IN
lawful sale of whiskey to non-mem-
bers.
Entirely independent of this police
move, the preachers of Atlanta are
planning "a mass meeting for Sunday
and the Men and Religion Forward
Movement is preparing a third fight,
all directed against the locker clubs
and the near beer saloons.

New Tariff Makes 1t Cheaper
