soldiers and sailors. But saloon
keepers, fearful Of arrest because of
the warning issued last week by United

cautious.

Headquarters that a traffic policeman,
whose number she had taken, had re-
fused to arrest a man who had been
observed selling whiskey in TASKS to
eight sailors. The bluejackets were
intoxicated at the time. she said.
This incident occurred, according to
the woman, at o'clock Yesterday
afternoon in Twenty Street. A
number of women in the uniform of
the Motor Corps of America were near
by at the time. They urged the traffic
policeman, who was at the nearest
crossing, to arrest the whiskey seller.
but he protested that he had no
evidence. The Motor Corps women as
sured him they would sign a complaint
and also testify against the man. and
the policeman reluctantly agreed to
make the arrest. By that time, how
