Few Men in Huge Army
Commit Serious 0ffenSeS

Out of about 100000 men who
Joined the colors only about 5000
were convicted of serious offenses in
the American army, according to the
statement of Colonel John Z. Hunt,
commandant at the preliminary dis
ciplinary barracks at Governors
Island, where men sentenced to, life
or longtime sentences by martial
courts, will be given the opportunity
to reduce their sentences to a mini
mum of months.
The plan which has gone into eff
feet under the army regulations in
wolves a far-reaching scheme by
which the soldier prisoner may re-
deem himself and return to civil life
better equipped than ever before for
the battle of life. At present there
ere between 600 and 700 men in the
barracks.
In commenting on the small num-
Der of men sentenced in the big new
army, Colonel Hunt said that the
draft law brought into the army 5000
men with recognized criminal rec
ords in civil life, and that of the
5000 convicted of serious offense un-
der the military law, fully half were
from among the 5000 of criminal
record in civil life, all, of whose
names are known.

REVENUE AGENTS
ENFORCEDRYLAW
AFTER JULY FIRST
Three Thousand Men and
800 Inspectors Assigned to
the Task of Making New
Law Effective

Three thousand internal revenue
agents working in specially arrang-
ed zones throughout the United
States will enforce prohibition after
July 1, according to plans announced
by the revenue bureau. Nearly 500
inspectors will be trained for the
work, to be added to the force of
2,2S3 revenue agents already avail
able for police regulations and the
machinery for enforcement will be
in working order before the date
when absolute prohibition becomes
effective.
This force of Special agents will
be distributed among the districts
where law violation is threatened to
the largest extent, and special at
tention will be paid to cities where
sistent efforts to make whisky IL
legally.
Although manufacture of liquor
for personal use will be equally il
legal with the production for sale,
revenue agents are expected to de-
mercial traffic. and leave the en-
forcement of the law against per-
sonal manufacture to local police.
One aspect of liquor law violations
has grown out of the hundreds OF
recipes for home manufacture OF
liquors, now being circulated in al
parts of the country: Booklets and
printed pamphlets of these. recipes
have reached revenue officials from
scores of cities. 1t was explained
today that to make liquor according
violations of law, although it was
admitted it would be difficult to
prevent the manufacture in most
cases.
Great care is to be observed by
revenue officials to prevent unneces-
sary interference with production
and distribution of alcohol for indus
trial and commercial purposes, I'M
der the prohibition act. Regulations
governing production Of this non
beverage alcohol will be issued soon.
BY a careful system of admins
trative regulations, the bureau plans
to make it difficult for the use of
flavoring extracts. perfumes, toilet
preparations and other articles con-
tanning olcohol, for beverage pur-
poses. Medicines containing alcohol
already must have a composition to
