opportune to give his federal friend
the slip, went to the station, intend
ing TO return to Muskogee, but the
federal officer was at the station
waiting for his friend" There was
another wait of a day and then the
Tulsa attorney decided 20 try again.
This time he got away unnoticed hy
the federal officer. He. arrived in
Muskogee and then made his way to
Tulsa.
Here is one way bootleggers arc
going to beat the law; federal Off
GERS have no right to interfere with
Interstate shipments. II n bootleggcr
starts across the state line with a
suitcase or two of booze and is
stopped by an officer. he can pay his
Tar thru to Texas or 10 some other
point outside the state Of Oklahoma to
state whore prohibition does not
prevail and he cannot be molested
If he starts across the state line into
oklahoma, and is travelling on tho NJ.
h. & Y. and is halted by a federal
officer, his one best bet will bc to
travel into Denison or some other
point in Texas. If he is entering from
the state Of Texas his only recourse is
to travel thru to Joplin or some other
point in Missouri. in event he is
stopped by n federal officer.
VIII Need Army of SIcuths.
Much of the whisky being brought
TO Oklahoma at present is made in
small shipments. usually in suit
cases. Uncle Sam is going to encoun-
ter all kinds OF trouble II a half
dozen bootleggers start across the
state line, each carrying n couple of
suitcases of whisky, most of the num-
Der are sure to get thru. else the fed
eral government will have to main
tain a small army Of officers on the
state line to search every passenger
train for mysterious grips While the
federal sleuths are busy searching
trains, a vast number Of shipments
can he made into the state by auto
mobile.
Probably Uncle Sam will succeed
in wiping out the whisky business i'm
eastern oklahoma; but if he does. he
Is going to have one Of the biggest
Jobs of the kind he has ever under

INTERSTATE LAW THE KEY

Special to The World
BARTLESNlLLE, Okla, March 10.
When Uncl0 Sam started cam
paign to wipe out the whisky ring in
eastern oklahoma ard make the east
side bone dry" no did not expect the
job was going to be as difficult and
extensive n job as has been discov-
cred since the far-reaching campaign
started. Even tho Kansas has a
bone dry" law and Arkansas is in
the prohibition column. eastern Ok
lahoma is far from an arid section
and a vast amount of intoxicating
liquors are still being sold. Scores Of
cars of contraband liquors find their
way into Oklahoma each day over the
new booze trail" which passes up
Kansas and comes in in the northeast
section of the state from Missouri
This in face Of the fact that small
army Of federal sleuths are camped
"along the border between Oilaho-
ma and Missouri.
1t is not only going to be a difficult

Job to suppress the liquor business In
eastern oklahoma, but before the fed
eral government checks the traffic,
chasing bootleEGers and stock haul
ers' who bring whisky and beer
across the state line from Missouri,
the campaign will resolve itself into
a Marathon race. Even then federal
officers are likely to encounter a
snag, for bootlcEEers have hit upon y
plan that will not only keep federal
officers active, but they are sure 10
be kept busy chasing back and forth
between three states. The System"
was revealed lately when a prominent
Tulsa attorney beat federal officer
at his own game"
Called the Officers Bluff.
Recently the Tulsa attorney was at
Joplin, the distributing point for all
shipments of intoxicating liquors for
the thirsty in eastern Oklahoma. Jop-
jim wholesalers have a special type OF
dress suitcase used when "A small
shipment of whisky il to be made
across the state line. This special
make grip is known only to federal
officers and the higher ups" i'm the
bootleg business. The Tulsa lawyer
purchased - quarts of whisky tor
his own use, but that fact made no.
difference to federal officers. lie
boarded a Katy train and, when the
state line was reached, no federal Of
ficer was on hand to search the grip.
The Tulsa lawyer was Muskogee
bound. At Ninita a federal officer
boarded the train.
What is that you have in that
grip" demanded the federal sleuth.
THAT is none of your damn bust
