METHODIST MINISTER
SUSPENDED ONE YEAR

CoRDELE, Ca, Nov. Having
represented the Rev. Francis McCul-
Tough as counsel in his trial at the
session of the South Georgia confer
ence, just adjourned, we think it not
cut of place to make the following
statement:
We gave the charges against him
thorough and exhaustive Investigation
We find some of the facts charged
against him to be true, and it is on the
basis of these facts that the verdict
suspending him for one year was reach
ed. But we are sure that there was
never any conscious or any intention
al wrong done by Mr.. Mccullough.
There were certain business condi-
ton which he could not control and
this, added to some carelessness in
business affairs, resulted in the unfor
tunate trial and suspension. In our
opinion he is thoroughly hones+,

TO WAR AGAINST
THE 'NOONSHINERS"

ATLANTA, Ga, Nov. 30.-Now that
Georgia's new prohibition laws are
going into effect a knockout blow is
being planned for "moonshine," ac-
cording to announcement made by
Revenue Collector Blalock and Rev
enue Agent Can't.
Instructions have just been received
in Atlanta directing federal officers to
cooperate in every possible way with
the state authorities to make reports
on all violations of the law again st
distillation and to permit the United
States deputies to testify in the state
courts.
From this time on violations of the
state law against Illicit distilling will
be tried in the state courts, as we'll as
in the federal courts, where in the
past all such cases have been handled
It is believed that by this method
county pride will be aroused and the
people of each section vii take more
interest in stamping out the SINNERS
than if the government agents were
the only ones on the job.
