Ciffside Bar-keepers
Violating Sunday Law
Say Investigators

The Anti-Saloon League Of America
had one of its Investigators in the
borough last Sunday and he with
several Grantwood citizens Journey
ed through the town to see how the
law was being obeyed, relative to the
Sunday closing of saloons. What
the delegation saw and made notes
Of will be presented to the borough
Council at its meeting on Monday
evening.
One member Of the party in speak
ing of the matter said that the con-
ditions found were disgraceful for
every saloon, with very few excep-
tons, was doing business and open
ly violating the law. He said that
the front doors were bolted in many
places, the shades were pulled down
hiding the bar, and that liquor was
out the side doors at a rapid rate.
The party claims to have seen two
drunkards staggering from a resta-
urant adjoining a saloon on Palisade
avenue and that it was evident that
the restaurant was being used as a
saloon, while the store next door gave
the appearance of being owned by a
law abiding citizen.
The party journeyed to Anderson
avenue and Gorge road and observed
saloon near there in full operation
with a policeman not more than two
hundred feet away. One of the party
requested the policeman enforce the
law by ordering the proprietor to
lower his shades exposing the bar
public view. This the policeman re-
fused to do stating at the time that
he was not acquainted with the law
and further that he had received
no orders to close the saloons. He was
was told that citizen had the right
to order a policeman to enforce the
law when there was plain evidence
of it being violated. The policeman
replied that he would take orders
only from his chief.
The delegation made stenographic
notes of all the violations it observed
and this evidence will be turned over
to the prosecutor, if the Council re-
fuses to take the proper action at its
meeting.

The president indicated to newspa-

some changes TO meet progressive Re-
publican demands. although these
shifts, he held, would be for the pur-
pose OF making the plan more dem

AS to the Norris proposal to make
certain that no belligerent ships
would be purchased. the president
said, the senator wanted policy de-
fined and not a right surrendered.
The executive also declared that
the question OF turning the ship lines
over to private capital would be up to

said he did not believe TO be perma-

A committee to confer with the

The state of Michigan is proving a

years old. II brought back her recall
citrant lover from Chicago, arranged
her marriage, and then, with Judge
James Phelan personally representing
the state, gave her wedding present

to Chicago. He was captured and
brought back, facing Judge Phelan
Tuesday morning He pleaded guilty
to the young woman's accusation. and
said that he was sorry and would
gladly take her as his wife. The
young woman said she was willing TO
forgive him, and marry him.
Assistant Prosecutor Philip Robin
son consented to withdraw the infor-
nation against wilamowski, and some
one remarked that II had cost SIS to
bring the prisoner from Chicago.

You'll keep that SIS as a present from

Then he sent officers with villa

had to leave Detroit.
There Is no question in my mind
but that they had diphtheria, and
treated all those In the house with
anti-toxin, as most physicians do. and
as the Board or Health wishes us to
do" the physician testified.
Guerbach, with his lunch basket
under his arm. appeared as his own
attorney.

told me then. I am to blame for that.
I did what the other doctor told me
to- When he attended my girl, Alice,
he said: That's one Of the crossest
children / ever saw. I'll give her
something to sweeten her up That
night, the girl died."
DIR. Rogers, after hearing this testi-
mony, demanded that he be given an
opportunity to explain. He denied
he had said, IL am to blame" and
testified that the remarks about the
disposition of the child was part OF
harmless conversation with the
mother Ms. Guerbach agreed with
him that the girl was Gross" he said.
Guerbach cross-examined the physt
clan.
"Why did II appear in the death
records that my girls died OF heart

paper say II was diphtheriaT
Because II was a weakness Of the
heart that caused DEATH" answered
Or. Rogers.
The physician then turned to Jus.
