the tremendous preparations being made in this
country would absolutely annihilate the German
army when the full force of America was thrown

URGES AN AMENDMENT
Judge Says State Liquor Laws Should
 Conform to Federal Act.

Fort Smith, Jan 13.---1n his charge to the Grand Jury at opening of Jan uary term of United States Court to- day, Judge Frank A. Youmans de- clared that the state and federal reg ulations governing the carrying of liquor from one state to another are conflicting and said that the present legislature should amend the state law so that it would coincide with the federal regulations. He said this will suppress the liquor traffic and at the same time keep many well-meaning people, who have been under the be- lief that the decision of the Supreme Court on the state law permits them to bring liquors into the state for their personal use, from doing so.
 Judge Youmans paid special atten- tion to the espionage act and urged the indictment of all who fail in lOy- atty 0 the country. The criminal docket is short. There are only few cases of note and it is believed that many of them will be continued.
