With the promised cooperation OF
the military authorities, the liquor
license inspectors and police are look
ing forward to an extensive campaign
against the illicit sale Of liquor to
soldiers which has been going on regu-
larly for some time in spite of the
severe penalty for it. Heretofore the
police say they have not been able to
obtain the cooperation Of the military
authorities completely enough to en-,
able them to convict many blind pig

spector, this morning, with the army
cooperation we will be able to get
many who we're able to get away from
us before"
That the illicit sale Of liquor has
been going on extensively among SOL
diers especially, is indicated by the
number Of arrests of soldiers made of
late. Not only have T. soldiers been
getting booze in civilian clothes. but
they have been obtaining it in their
uniforms.
Although there are ways in which
they can evade the law providing that
no liquor can be sold to soldiers in
uniform, mucn Of the liquor obtained
by them is received from unlicensed
sellers.
