was one of those good gray dresses you sent such an abundance of, and a long black muff1er and chemise that I got out for a half-blind old Woman With q group of old and helpless folk going from the hospital here to the south. They were the most Ditiful things I ever saw and she in partiCu- lar was in rags. You know the old ones are always the last to leave the bonn barded villages--they hide in the cellars long after the able-bOdied have left, and sometimes have been too panic-stricken to leave even when our Friends unit men arc at the door with a motor truck begging them to come away. So they're usually in pretty bad shape when We get them. and that trip I took to Macon with them was an experience I'll not soon forget. Th1s old woman had got some of her spirit still. though, enough to be fierce against everything that is, and if she'd not been a little subdued by the gift and ready to call us "bOns Gens," I'm we'd have had trouble land ing her.

BIG CLEANUP OF MOONSHINE STILLS
486 Plants Raided and 5O,OOO Gallons of WhiSkey Destroyed

Washington, Aug. 31.-The biggest distillers ever undertaken by the government has just been completd in southern mountain districts by re- venue agents under direction of In eernaI Revenue Commissioner Daniel C. Roper.
 The activities of the agents resulted In the seizure of 48G stills arrest of 200 moonshiners, killing of five out laws and two sheriffs and the wound- ing of number of other governme ent Then and liquor makers. This system atic campaign of raids has been under way eight weeks, mainly in mountains of Tennessee, Alabama, Georgia, Florida, North Carolina and South Carolina--all dry states-but arrests were withheld until today to avoid giving advance information to moon sinners of the activities of a flying squadron of fourteen experienced re- venue agents.
 More than 30.OO0 gallons of pale moonshine whiskcy was seized and poured down the mountain streams. Over $100, 900 worth of illicit copper stills of all sizes, and other parapher- naia, automobile horses, mules and wagons belonging to the distillers was taken by the flying squadron. About 21.000 pounds of sugar found on dis tilIery premises was con1scated and the most of if given to the Red Cross. Recomm endations for 321 prosecu- tions have been sent to the depart ment of justice and forwarded to LInited States attorneys, while most of the moonshiners caught at their stills are behind bars in southern jals awaiting trial
 More than a, score of deserters from the army were discovered participating in mOOnshinc manufacture in the Southern mourta!ns, and two of these were killed in Georgia by armed raid CTS. In Tuscaloosa and Jefferson coIfities Alabama, the two sheriffs we're shot, and the killing of moon sinners occurred in Georgia, Tennes- see and Alabama.
 Extraordinary significance is at GGched to the concerted raids because Revenue Commissioner Roper under took the enterprise largely to demon strate that prohibition really can be . maRe effective.
 ln addition the purpose was to dry up the sources from which great ' quantities of moonshtne liquor has been furnished clandestinely to sol diers in southern training camps.
