That City Turn Over Its
Supply to Hospitals.

What 20 do with the large amount
OF whisky being held by the police
is suggested in a petition Just re-
ceived by the city authoritieg The
petition. which is accompanied by a
Letter from City Judge Frank Gilmer
points out the great dimculty being
experienced by the hospitals in OBJ
tanning whisky for medical purposes,
and asks that the liquor being held
by the police be turned over TO these
institutions.
City officials declare that they
would be glad TO dispose of the
whisky in this manner. but that the
law provides that liquor taken from
persons violating the law must be
destroyed.
However, several thousand dollars
worth of whisky and other liquor
cOnfiscated by the police has been
held at police headquarters for
many months, and the signers OF the
petition believe that if the matter
was placed properly before the fed
eral authorities, its transfer from
the city hall 20 the hospitals Of the
city would be permitted.

Uncle Sam to Keep
Eye On Election

Uncle Sam will keep an eye on the
election in South Bend Tuesday. and
any violations of the corrupt prac-
tice act will land the violators in the
tolls of the federal government.
Federal operatives have been in
the city for several days TO see that
no attempt is made 10 influence the
result of the election by the illegal
use OF money. Recently congress
enacted a law placing the election
Of congressman under the same fed
eral supervision as the election Of
United States senators, and any vio-
lations OF the corrupt practice act
in connection with the election of d
congressman in the thirteenth dis
trict Tuesday will be dealt with by
the federal government itself.
The govArnment does not propose
10 have the election Of congressman
tempered with by the illegal use OF
money by either political party and
for that reason Uncle Sam several
days ago sent government men TO
South Bend 70 see that the election
here Tuesday, insofar as the choice
of a congressman is concerned, is
conducted honestly.

heaviest creeping barrages 1 have

the barrage on the far side of the

With the aid of duck boards.
planks, trees. etc, we bridged the
swamp and built three bridges over
small river. The deafening and
terrible roar OF the barrage COM
bined with the heavy blanket of
smoke that our artillery gave US

Zero hour arrived. Our infan ~
