Much Interest in Cases.

Much interest is being shown in the
decision of the Police Court in the
cases of two persons arrested on
charges of bringing liquor into the
District after 5 o'clock p. m.
Assistant Corporation Counsel Ring
gold Hart had arranged to present
one Of the cases to JUDGE Mullowny
yesterday and was disappointed at
being unable to do SO because counsel
for the defendant was not on hand
and the case was continued. Counsel
did file a motion to quash the charge,
however, contending that the de.
fendant, who 10 said to have brought
q large quantity OF liquor from Balti-
more and arrived after o'clock. COM
mitted no offense.
It is the contention OF the police
that the law was violated, and they
are anxious to learn how the court Is
going to construe the law, and until
the question Is definitely determined
they are not disposed to make whole
sale arrests. The defendants in the
pending cases, 1t Is stated. claimed
they brought the liquor into the Dis
trict for personal use and not for de-
livery to other persons. ana the Sec
ton relating to hours for delivery.

to common carriers.
Prohibition agents In Virginia have
been unusually active during the past

made and much liquor taken from
alleged offenders. 1t is said there are
no interesting legal questions to be

FOR 'SAFETYF|RST'
c. H. Thompson Asks Com
merCe Chamber to Aid in
Reducing Street PeriIs.

Expressing apprehension at the in.
creasing number Of street accidents in
Washington. Safety Engineer c. H.
Thompson of the ordnance bureau Of
the War Department yesterday sent
a request to the Chamber Of Com
merce to launch another safety first
campaign in the District.
After stating that he has viewed
congested traffic conditions here with
uneasiness since his arrival in Janu-
ary. Engineer Thompson wrote:
''This is no doubt due to the crowd
ed condition Of the city. but am Of
the opinion that a well organized
public safety campaign would result
in a substantial reduction Of these
accidents.
Economic Loss Not Realized.
'The economic loss from accidents
does not seem to be realized by the
public. and IL Washington were to set
the example to other cities in such
q campaign the resultant saving in
man-power overseas.
Rochester, N. Y, Is at present con-
Quoting such campaign under the

become almost an annual drive in
Rochester. and is carried out with the
cooperation of the police and fre

other clubs, schools. churches, manu-
facturers, merchants. Boy Scouts and
all other organizations.

cause, with SO many strangers from

Wheat Restrictions Off.

Washington.-The food Adminstra-
zion announced that sthe war restrc-
tons on wheat and tin had been en-
tirely removed, and that the sugar ra-
ton had been increased from three to
four pounds a person month in the
beet sugar producing states and in
the cane sugar producing territory of
Louisiana, effective December 1. This
action was taken because of the avail
ability of sufficient sugar in that ter
ritory, and because the lack of cargo
space for overseas shipment, together
with the insufficient storage facilities
in this country.

cooperate in the conservation of nat.

shortage. The rapid growth of indus
try, as a result of war activities, is re.
sponsible for the increased demand
which is much greater than the sup,
ply. This is having a serious effect
upon domestic consumers, and there
is danger that there will not be enough
