1T DOES NOT
EFFECT WORK
OF MARSHALS

Deputy u. s. Marshal James Dillon
says that the late decision of the U. S.
court Of appeals is not affecting his
work or retardlng the apprehension OF
law violators in liquor cases. The inn
preston had gone abroad that liquor
prosecutions and arrests would cease
for the time being but statement
from U. S. Marshal Enloe disproves it.
United States Marshal B. A. Enloe,
Jr., Thursday denied story published
in Thursdays Tulsa World TO the ef-
feet that he had ordered his deputies
in the state to make no more arrests
for violation Of the federal liquor law.
"Violators of the liquor laws will be
arrested, as usual" said Mr.. Enloe,
where we find the law is violated.
The World apparently misconstrued
my orders to Deputy John Moran.
wrote Moran a letter and advised him
not to make any more raids in Tulsa
until we learn just what the decision
was as handed down by the United
States court of appeals in the Ed Ham
bliss case. However, Mr.. Moran has
been advised to make arrests when
ever he finds persons bringing liquor
into Tulsa.

in force on the Bob White" family.
Monday, however, will see a general
engagement all along the line.

In Luxembourg Reigns Peace;

the crown prince smashed his way in
to France, coming from destruction
and desolation, peace was in the very
air as the border of Luxemburg was
crossed Sleek cattle browsed in the
pastures, farmers were plowing or
gathering crops, birds twittered in the
streets.
Looking back over the line across
the French fields not a man, horse
or COW was in sight. Empty waste
and desolation was all that met the
eye. Along the roads of Luxembourg
men passed-not in uniform, but in the
attire of peaceful callings, the slouchy
garb Of the farmer and workingman.
In the French villages only old wo-
men and aged men and children were
seen. Seldom we're boys over II years
of age in evidence, but rollicking along
this Luxemburg road was a crowd of
sturdy, happy school boys between the
age of u and II, apparently on days

Then it was | thought Of the French
boy soldier, with a shattered hand |

the English boy buglers, shivering in
the chill fog in the prison camp at Do
berlitz near Berlin.

remark OF Commander Walter w.

the capital Of the Duchy was entered

the people of Luxembourg appear to be
very well satisfied.
The city of Luxembourg has popula-
