The BOotiegger and How to

LOUISVILLE. Ky. June 10
What 20 do with the "bootleECcr"
and how TO prevent him from nulIi-
flying the prohibition laws. has be-
come almost a. great a problem in
the South as the prohibition question
which makes ~bootlcEging profitable
and possible. Whether the bootleg

companies under the protection Of
interstate laws. by an Individual
salesman with 4 bottle in his hip
pocket. or through the aid OF locker
clubs" the fact remains that boot
Logging is going far toward nullify-
Ing the state prohibition laws OF the
country.
In different sections different ways
OF avoiding the -umptuary laws have
boon evolved. In Kentucky there IL
n regular pony express service for
the thirsty. Motor boats are used
along lhe Mississippi. Telephones
and railroad trains are utilized in
Alabama. Oklahoma bootlegGcrs take
orders in advance and deliver the
booze al some appointed place.
Household stills" are In common
use In Mississippi. and every man is
his own distillcr. Blind pigs" are
popular in Kansas. Automobile trails

The North Sea fight showed the
effect OF the arrival OF Great Britain's
OBSERVATION-DISCLOSURES. No one OF these
ships was seriously damaged. The
Warspite, though torn with heavy
shells from the salvos of the Ger
man fleet. was able to remain in ac-
ton and keep its guns going until
the German fleet left the field and
the superdreadnouGht Marlborough
was hit by a torpedo.
Reports also Indicated that the big
German first line fighters were able
to withstand all the ire dire>tcd
against them. The extent OF damage
to them is not known. but was not
serious enough apparently to cripple

As Admiral Dewey points out. de
strOyers played a very important
role In the lighting by day as well as
by night. Great Britain, recognizing
the value Of d~cstroyers. had sold out
most OF its old twenty-seven-kRot
type long before the war and replaced
them by new. powerful seagoing
units.
