There are differences of opinion as to
the proper method of controlling the
liquor business The believers in license
and the prohibitionists agree. however,
that effective work for the salvation of
individual drinkers is practical and
highly desirable.
Three years ago a group of men who
realized that the greatest benefits 90

business-like practice, after thorough in
vestisation. established the now famous
Neal institute. in Portland where the
method of treatment projected by DR..

Treasury Agents Hold
Jewels of Mrs. Dunlap

NEW YORK, Nov. 1s.--An exam
ination of the box of Jewels seized
from the baggage of Mr.. and Mrs.
William Allen Dunlap upon their ar
rival here aboard the White Star
liner yesterday occupied the atten-
ton of the customs appraisers at the
public stores for some time today.
The seizure, which also includes
a number of fine foreign made gowns,
is valued at several thousand dollars.
1t will rest with the treasury de-
partment at Washington to depide
whether or not the goods are dtitia-
BILE. Today's inquiry aimed only at
fixing the amount of duty to be levied
in the event of decision against
Mrs. Dunlap.
Mrs. Dunlap claims London as her
home and she offers In proof of her
contention the fact that she has lived
in the English metropolis for the last
year. Mr. Dunlap is the son of the
late Robert Dunlap, the weil-known
hat manufacturer, and this fact led
the customs men to fix the residence
of the couple as America. 1t devel-
oped from today's inquiry that they
gave up their home at 100 West
Eightieth street, Manhattan, nearly
three years ago.
