BERLIN, Jan. 134--In many ways

right of German employees and of the
safeguards thrown around them.
A soldier, wounded in the war, was
invaded home and discharged. Pre-
sently he received a position as a

CAMPAIGN TO STOP
LIQUOR TO INDIANS
GOVERNMENT MAKING FIGHT TO
BREAK UP ILLICIT
TRAFFIC
my Associated Pre.s.)

WASHINGTON, Jan. 13.-A drama
tic story of the governments fight to
stop the sale of liquor to Indians is
outlined by Cato Sells, Commissioner
Of Indian Affairsl So well have the
efforts of the Indian Service succeed
ed, he said, that the traffic virtually
has been broken up.
Not only has the government cut
the sale OF liquor to Indians on re-
servations and elsewhere, but in one
instance it has made NTH of a
state dry through enforcement of a
sixtyyear-old Indian treaty. Older
treaties are being studied now to de-
termine If saloons in other territory
partly populated by Indians can be
closed
Minnesota is the state in which a
vast area was freed of saloons by
treaty enforcement. The agreement
revived by the government is known
as the Chippewa treaty of 1856. For
many years its provisions regarding
the sale of whisky had been forgot
ten until one day last summer it was
discovered in the Indian Bureau here
that the convention was a perpetual
bar to the sale of intoxicants in
northwest Minnesota.
Indian officials determined to en-
force the treaty and began, too, the
study of similar agreements in other
states. On October goth last an
order went forth that saloons in sew
eral of the larger towns in the terri
tory must close within ten days
Liquor dealers refused to close and
took the fight into the courts, where
it has just been decided that the
treaty provisions still are in force.
Indian officials say the Indian him
self first realized that alcohol was a
menace to the race and that in the
Minnesota treaty as well as in most
of the other Indian treaties the Indian
and not the white man stipulated
that intoxicants should not be sold in
Indian territory.
In other parts of the country Off
cials charged with endorsements of
laws against the sale of whisky to
Indians worked through court action.
Several officers were killed.
An educational campaign against
the use of alcohol, Indian officials de-
clare, did much for the enforcement
of laws. A pledge-signing campaign
also was an aid. Education of the
Indian against drink was undertaken
through the schools, where students
were interested in essay writing con-
| tests.
While investigating treaty arrange
ments Indian officials discovered a

The hotel proprietor summarily
dismissed the porter. The discharg-
ed employee, how ever. sled under the
law which specifies that notice must
be given except in certain well-de-
fined cases. The court upheld the
porter's claim and awarded him back
pay of 1877 marks, on the following
grounds:
The porter's surrender to the in
fuence of liquor probably was due
in part to his earlier wounds. His
act in lying down on the guests bed
was caused by his intoxication. There
fore it was attributable to the wounds
and excusable. One case of drunk
enness was not sufficient to warrant
summary dismissal, unless the en-
ploye in advance had been speciffi-
cally warned not to visit saloons
which was not the case with the
soldier-porter In addition he had
not been hired on probation and
therefore was entitled to full notice
before being dismissed.

VIENNA, JAM 49, - Rumania has
sold to the Central Powers $4,000 car
loads of cereals, mostly wheat, Indian
corn and navy beans The sale, UNI
has been made at a reasonable market
price, and no special inducements
were offered, nor will 1t be necessary
this time to engage in the wholesale
bribing of Rumanian government and
railroad officials to get the purchases
out Of the country
Rumania was obliged to sell to
the Central Powers because she can
not sell to anybody else. The closing
of the Dardanelles has locked the gate
to other markets, and Russia, the only
other entente power with whom Ru-
mania now has physical contract, is
not in the market for Rumanian GER
calls. So long as Serbia was still a
fact and a neighbor. Rumania was
able to ship some of her foodstuffs to
Saloniki, from where they could be
reached by entente and neutral con
sumers Now this route is closed
With the conquest of Serbia the
Central Powers have gained great
economic advantage. Rumania must
sell to them, If she does not want to
have her crops rot on her hands, and
what is considered just as important
here. must sell on terms more favor
