HUNS PLACE WOMAN
BEFORE FIRING SQUAD

ZURICH, July '29--Miss Milado
Jamseheck, a teacher of languages, has
been sentenced to death by the Vienna
military tribune on a charge of espion-
age.
Miss Jamscheck sailed from New
York on the same steamer with Count
BcrnstOrT. She was charged with max
ing the trip for Czeebs In the United
States to ascertain from Won Bern
storff how far Austria was under Ger

what was the attitude Of the Czech
deputies and Bohemians regarding the
indeuendence of the Czech countries.
Miss Jamsheeek, 1t is said, denied
criminal intent and asserted that she
only desired to bring good news to her
eOuutrymen from the United States.

I TO do so than to turn the defendants
over to the federal authorities.
But in spite of the apparent Opt.
mistic views of the. district attorney
and marshal rs TO the future enforce
ment of the prohibition law. II is evi
dent thai they are basins most Of their
hopes on the belief that Il will be so
difficult to smuggle liquor into the
Islands that there will not be many
violations.
What liquor il manufactured locally,
they expect the internal revenue force
to discover and confscate and the Gus
toms force to keep more from arriving
here, except under the permission grant,
ed by the liquor boards to licensed i'm
pOrters.
But there is still large stock Of
liquor widely distributed in the Islands
Many Are Prepared
From all parts of the Territory
stories have been filtering into prohibi
ton headquarters about the way vari.
Gus prominent citizens. and others, have
been preparing for the "dry spell"
which hits the Islands tomorrow night,
and some of them are limited at as
being exceedingly interesting.
W. H. Hutton, local liquor license in.
spe"tor, has been keeping tabs upon
generous shipments OF liquors from
Hilo during the past month. It is
stated that when midnight strikes to.
nOrrOw there will be more booze in
Honolulu than ever before, and n great
deal of it came from Hilo, where the
the price Of whiskey during the last
few hours is reported to have jumped
almost out of sight-and so has the
whiskey.
Word has also come from HiIo that
R. T. Guard, secretary of the liquor
commission for the Island of Hawaii.
says that already scores of "swipe"
joints, where this vile connection is
made, are in operation and that it
would take q, small army of men to
prevent the manufacture Of this special
band of alleged booze. On that Island
the police have been doing good work,
but after tomorrow, when the federal
officers take charge of the enforcement
Of the Hawaii prohibition law. the
Hilo police will be authorized to act
only when called upon by, federal
officer, and there are no deputy mar
shals in HilO.
Smiddy In Charge
On Oahu, rs well as in the rest Of
the Territory, United States Marshal
Smiddy will be in complete charge of
the prohibition campaign for stamping
out all illicit stills, where "swipes"
or okOlehao is made. As Marshal Smid
dy has only two deputies to assist him
in this wide campaign, the "swipes"
are expecting to do'a rushing business
for some time TO come, or until more
deputy marshals are sworn in.
Meanwhile the executive order of
the President last April, making Homo
lulu and Oahu bone dry, will be super
coded by the Hawaii Prohibition Act
which affects equally the entire Terri
tory. What that order did for Homo
lulu, as shown by the police records,
the congressional act will be Of similar
benefit to the Territory as whole,
dependent upon how sincerely the law
il enforced.

LONG DROUGHT NEARL Y.
HERE: HAWAII PROHIBITION.
ACT EFFECTIVE TOMORROW

With n last shipment of booze in
from Hilo tomorrow morning, Honolulu
and the entire Territory win become
dry at midnight, after which IL will
be violation Of the federal law to
buy, sell or give away booze of any
kind.
Coming of the drought -, enforce
ment which falls to the federal an
thorities under the Hawaii Prohibition
Act, present n problem for the staff
Of United States Marshal j. J. Smiddy,
which consists nov Of only two depu-
ties, with no fund for employment Of
secret service operatives.
Heretofore there have been approx
mately $50 policemen in Hawaii whose
duty IL was to see that the liquor laws
were enforced, and now there are only
three federal policemen whose oath
requires them to investigate and ar
rest violators of liquor law much
more difficult TO enforce.
Theoretically, it is known, District
Attorney +. G. Huber and Marshal
Smiddy are depending on the continued
assistance Of the territorial police, but
others think that there is grave dan
ger many of them win wink" at
violations Of federal statute, the en-
forcement of which they are not par
ticularly interested in, and in many
eases possibly not in sympathy with.
Internal Revenue To Aid
Some other aid may also be expect
Ell from another branch of the federal
government, internal revenue agents
who will have to increase their vigi-
lance in apprehending manufacturers
of swipes and other moonshine makers

Incidentally, through the empowering
of the liquor boards on the various Isl
ands with authority for the granting
Of licenses for the distribution and i'm.
portation Of liquor and wines for saera-
mental, mechanical and medicinal pur.
poses, some aid may be expected by
the federal authorities from these
boards aud their inspectors.
As congress in passing the prohibi-

, doesn't mean that all the farm labo; 5o' secured will be experienced in az 'icultural activiety.
 Other Countries Have Succeeded
 Canada's food crop production has been continued despite just such short. ages of skilled farm labor as we now face. It has been done by redirecting the man and boy power of the coun- try, by applying to agriculture classes of labor that normally would not have sought that field. We can do the same thing. And we must-otherwise well find Germany running our farms for us. The farmer musn't lose sight ot what it will mean to him personally if he fails to produce food crops, no matter how annoying it may be to have to use some odds and ends ot farm help.
 And, just as it is a part of the farm CTS patriotic obligation to bear with and overcome the inconveniences O. the situation, so it is the patriotic ob- ligation of every man of farm expert ence to so arrange his present affairs that he can go to work where he vii! be most needed this spring and sum hue cr;1 f0 h ie rNy il an hour of need, the benefit of his skill as a farm worker And to the man or boy without farm training there is an equally clear call for duty to volunteer for farm work in his community, to go to farm training camp if there is one in his section, and if not to arrange with some farm CT to give him a few weeks training, thus fitting him for really effective farm work later in the season.
 The shortage of experienced farm help is caused only in small part by the enlistment or calling to the col ors of men from the farms Large num- bers of farm workers were attracted to manufacturing centers last year by the high wages paid at munitions plants, in the building of cantonments, etc. For more than three years there has been a practical suspension of i'm migration.
 A farm help specialist has been ap- pointed in each state by the United States department of agriculture Tn turn, he has named or will name coun- ty and community representatives who, cooperating with the regular county demonstration agent, the state agricultural colleges, and other or ganizations, will learn from every far mer his probable labor requirements this year The United States depart ment of labor Is extending it's machin- cry and expects to have in every state an organization which will locate pos sible supplies of farm labor. In each state and community farmers, who need help, and men who can supply such help or who themselves will go to work on a farm, should cOmmuni- cate with the state farm help special ist or county or community agent.

SEEKING SUFFICIENT FARM LABOR
(Official Letter from Department of Agriculture)

What will be do about labor?"
 That has been one of the foremost questions in the farmers mind this winter. The labor problem has been md is one of the most important az 'icultural problems of the war, and yet it is not so difficult as it appears The United States department of agri ;ulture, the United States department )f labor, state agricultural colleges md other agencies are cooperating n efforts to relieve the situation Some of the methods are:
 By careful surveys throughout the United States this winter to learn def nitely the farm labor needs anticipat- d in each section for the spring, sum ner and harvest.
 To assemble information showing Ill possible supplies of farm labor in every part of the country.
 In every section, to direct all avail lble farm labor to the nearest place where it is needed, and, with changes If seasons and crops, to continue it to other sections as it is needed.
 To train high school boys and others old enough for effective farm work out not old enough for the army, in some of the practical fundamentals oi arming, to the end that after a few weeks of training in camp early this spring they will be available for farm york in their county or community, lnder the leadership and supervision of competent Y. M. c. A, Boy Scouts, or other directors
 To use as farm help volunteer work CTS from towns and cities, who will go 70 farms in their county or commu- nity as crop necessities may require. Preferably, of course, these volun- teers should be persons who were reared on farms, or who have done farm work.
 In short, to attack the farm labor problem with a first line force of al the experienced farm labor that sys- .ematic search and patriotic appeals can develop; to back this up with Q second line of high school boys and others who have received intensive training camp courses in farm fund mentals and of men not engaged i work directly essential to the war a who can be transferred from present pursuits to emergency farm work; and finally to throw in the last line of reserves, to be applied only in em- ergencies, workers who have no farm experience.
 It would be much better if it were not necessary to use any untrained la Dor on the farms. It would be an ideal condition if every farm could be com pletely manned with experienced help this year. However, like many ideas. that will not be obtainable. The ma tion possesses enough potential farm labor to supply the farms, if all the possible supplies are efficiently direct ed to agricultural pursuits and divert ed from less essential workout this

been provided for men or purchased for every soldier in France and are available for every soldier who can be gotten to France in the year 1918 4. A substantial army is already in France, where both men and officers have been additionally and specially trained and are ready for active ser vice.
 ,. Independent lines of communica- ton and supply and vast storage and other facilities are in progress of con struction in France.
 6. Great programs for the men in additional equipment and for the pro duction' of new instruments of war have been formulated
 On the 31st day of December, 1917, the regular army consisted of 1O,25O officers and 475,O00 enlisted men; the national guard of 16,O31 officers and 400,900 enlisted men; the national ar my of 48O,0O0 men and the reserve of S4,575 officers and 72,75O enlisted men. In other words, in nine months the increase has been from 9524 off cers to 11O,S56 officers; from O2,51O to 1,42S,650 men.
 Up to January there has been pur- chased for the army:
 Blankets, 19,000,0OO
 Overcoating, 20,OO0,OOO yards.
 Shifting flannel, 3O,0OO,0OO yards.
 Cotton goods, 250,000000 yards.
 Winter drawers, 25,OO0,0OO pair
 Winter undershirts, 21,000,000
 Woolen gloves, 11,OO0,0O0 pair.
