FEDERAL RAIDS ON
CLUBS in SAVANNAH

SAVANNAH, Ga, April What
is believed to be the beginning of fed
eral Intervention in the illicit liquor
traffic in Savannah and vicinity has
commenced with the raiding by spe-
cial government officers of the Coun-
try Club, formerly the German Club,
and found a quantity of prohibited
beverages. Just what was found and
how much was uncertain. 1t is I'M
derstood to be chiefly beer.
Departmental representatives de-
cline to make any comments on the
raids.
1t is indicated that the dragnet of
the federal authorities is very large
and its mesh very small. 1t promises
to catch more than the big fish
1t is believed that this raid is the
result of Mayor Pierpont's appeal to
Washington and the recent visit to
Savannah of District Attorney Donal
son.
The mayor, it is reported, is greatly
pleased with the turn of affairs
w. H. Eskedor, president of the
Country Club, declines to make any
statement but, its said, is making an
investigation of the seizure.
