WILL ENFORCE THE
PROHIBITION LAWS.

Atlanta, Ca, Nov. 25.-D. ]. CAN'T,
recently appointed by the federal
government to supervise prohibition
enforcement in the southeast, in a
statement to the Prohibition Enforce
ment Campaign Committee, declares
that enforcement means a battle to
the finish with we'll organized band
of the most desperate of criminals
and yeggmen. The statement says:
"The whisky interests are well or
ganized. On account of the enormous
profits in the manufacture and sale
of the whisky it has drawn into this
traffic the most desperate of crimi-
nails and yeggmen and it is no child's
play to bring these men to justice.
at looks like unfortunate circum-
stances move in cycles and six of my
men are now under indictment for
murder because Of having to shoot
men who tried to kill them.
"We have been operating entirely
heretofore under the revenue laws,
and it would not be surprising to me
at all if we continue to operate under
them instead of the new prohibition
law, because the internal revenue laws
provide for q minimum penalty and
the prohibition laws can be whitfield
down to a penalty o. even one cent.
"The force of our territorial. divis-
ion will consist Of a number of Off
GERS who will be available for this
line Of work. They will not be re-
stricted to any special terri
torial arrangement, but they can be
used where their services are most
needed. When these officers are not
employed on one of these cleanups
they will be placed at strategic points
ready for instant action.
with an appropriation of only
$4,000, 900 for this work for the fis-
cal year 1920 YOU can readily see that
it is going to be impossible for the
Federal government to take over all
the responsibility of enforcing the
various laws, and it is going to be
necessary, if you want enforcement of
the law, to secure the functions Of
sheriff, police officers and all other
officers of the law"

THE EFFECT OF LIGHTNING ON
HEAVY RUBBER TREES.

1t is we'll known that rubber trees are
killed by lightning in the tropics lust as
other trees are in northern countries.
DR.. Rutgers has given an account of
other effects Of lightning. In some cases
it appears that trees may hegin to die
back at the tips of the branches, thus
suggesting the disease know by that
a and due to a specific fungus. In
other cases the branches of the trees may
be only withered. In some instances,
strips of bark have been killed. He
further records that trees affected by
lightning are very liable to the attacks
OF borers, these evidently gaining an en-
trance through damaged bark, even
