Cardinal Gibbons, IN . letter to, the

larly with the recent appeals to coal
miners and producefs to increase
their efforts at production. expresses
the hope that the clergy win do all
In their power to urge mine workers

The very fact that We have con-

every man in the country either to

fact that certain kinds Of workers are

my mind, an indication to them that
their real duty 10 to do that particu-
lar kind of work, because through
the particular kind Of work which
they can perform the country will be
more greatly helped. and the war
more easily won. But Just as It 10 the

to fight bravely and to allow their
patriotism to be the informing
principle Of their courage. SO it 10
necessary that those who work

To Enforce "Dry' Condition.
Extraordinary significance is at
tached to the concerted raids be-
cause Revenue Commissioner Roper
undertook the enterprise largely to
demonstrate that prohibition can
really be made effective. In addition,
the purpose was to dry up the sources
from which great quantities of moon
shine liquor has been furnished
clandestinely to soldiers in southern
training camps.
Evidence of the success Of the
roundup is gathered from scores OF
letters received by the revenue bu-
reau from citizens of southern COM
munities saying drunkenness has
been eliminated the first time in
many years.
Permanent organizations. for the
rafding of Illicit stills now have been
formed throughout the south. Terri

Recommendations for 321 prosecu-
tions have been sent to the Depart
ment of Justice and forwarded to

of the moonshiners caught at their
stills are behind bars in southern
jails awaiting trial.
Spectacular Features.
Because Of the systematic plan pur-
sued and the extensive advance prep
arations. the drive had features more
spectacular than even the usual
Newspapers and a few prominent
citizens in each community from
which the flying squadron operated
were informed of the plans as soon
as the band of agents came to town,
but in all cases they maintained con-
fidence.
Although many newspapers knew
the raids were general rather than
local, they co-operated with the
agents by not publishing this. and
officials today released these papers
to give out what the off1cials declare
are sensational stories of local devel-
opments at the time of the raids.
Deserters Killed.
More than a score of deserters from
the Army were discovered participat-
ing in moonshine manufacture in the
southern mountains. and two of these
were killed in Georgia by armed
raiders. In Tuscaloosa and Jefferson
counties, Ala, the two sheriffs were
shot, and the killing of moonshiners
occurred in Georgia, Tennessee and
Alabama
Members of the raiding squadron
were men picked from the most ex-
perienced revenue agents in the en-
tire country and trained in questions
of evidence admissible to trials. They
wore supervised by Daniel l. Porter.

Over Estimate Crops.

The crop estimates OF cane and
rice recently made by the govern
ment, rs per date of July lst.. we
believe are erroneous. Rice in st.
Martin parish is rated at 80 per
cent average and cane "a per cent,
and st. Martin cane crop showes
the lowest estimate. From our
personal observation and general
reports, we must conclude that the
estimate is much too high as re-
CARDS cane and rice, corn and the
peavine crops are also much dam
aged, and unless We have abun-
dant rains very shortly, there is no
telling what the damage to all
crops will be.

Things are getting to a pass
where many men in business pre-
fer to sell out and become en-
ployees. They argue that it is
much better to be an employee and
get from $40 a week up than to
have business. for with the sa-
larry they have but to give nine or
ten hours day and their worry is
over. whereas with a business they
have trouble in securing material,
difficulty in getting labor, which is
more or less very Independent, and
finally the responsibility to the
government in making reports and
dividing up earnings is no small
proposition, the consequence be-
ing that they are worried both day
and night to make all ends meet -

PeriShable Goods Not To Be

By the request of Postmaster
George s. Easter we publish the
following:
To All Postmasters:
1t has been brought to the at
tention of the Department by post
masters at post Offices to which are
attached military branches that
large numbers of packages, many
OF them insured, containing fruit
and other edibles, are received dai-
ly in such condition as to render
the contents unfit for use. It is
also reported that many packages
containing fruit in deeayed condi-
ton have been insured and be-
cause of the condition of the con-
tents are not delivered to the ad-
dressee by the military authorities.
but for sanitary reasons are de.
stroyed.
The mailing of such edibles is
understood to be contracy to the
wishes of the military authorities.
who have found it necessary in
many cases to withhold delivery in
order to safeguard the health of
the soldiers.
Postmasters are directed to ad-
wise their patrons of these facts
and to refuse to accept for mailing
parcels containing perishable arti.
cles, especially fruit, addressed to
military camps and csntonments,
if there is reason to doubt that con-
tents will not be in perfect condi-
ton upon delivery to the addressee.
1t should be borne in mind that
mail matter for the soldiers in
these camps can not always be de-
livered to the addressee immediate
ly upon arrival there, as itcomes in
large quantities and must be sepa-
rated into many units, and the
time of the soldiers is largely TAX
en- up with their military duties,
furthermore, a large percentage of
the mail is delayed by insufficient
addresses and frequently it must
be forwarded because of changes,
for military reasons, in the loca-
tion of the troops.
