SALEM. n. ]. July 31-"A certain
class of people who have located at
Pennsgtove and Upper PENIS Neck
township since the boom at the pow
der plants evidently have not taken
my statements seriously that all those
who come before me for violation of
the liquor laws will be severely dealt
with. said Judge Waddington in the
Salem County Courts. and l am call
ed upon to impose upon the defend
ants who are now before me some
thing that will remind them and be
a warning to others that such viola

county"
Judge Waddington addressed his re-
marks TO John o Burns, Edward
Lashley and Joseph L. Peacock found
guilty Of selling intoxicating liquors
in Pennsgrove without a license and
all were sentenced to four months
in the county jail and fined $500.
A strong plea for mercy was made
for Peacock on the ground that he
was above the average intelligence
and bore an excellent name and ac-
Quired money Peacock wearing a
button Of one of the greatest secret
organizations in the country clearly
showed his embarrassment but the
Judge said: Being a man Of more
than average intelligence, he should
have known better and worked for
the better moral uplift of the COM
munity than to stoop so low as to
violate tho law in this respect. and
he could see no reason why an excep-
tion should be made in his case.

LONDON, Jan. IS (by maiD 1.-The

'ish diplomacy, it is charged, should
have won the support of both Turkey

this, British Diplomacy is i'll for bit
