1t was stated around the city hall
that certain lawiess element here
had regarded the recent decision of
the commission to stay within the
law as a victory for their cause and
of the situation by carrying shot
guns in their cars when drumming

inclined to regard the limitations
and threats of these boOtleEgers
and whisky dealers lightly and will
prosecute them to an even greater
extent than heretofore.

that they would be prepared to crack
down on any member of the purity
squad who attempted to stop them
without a warrant said a prominent
citizen. This is the only unfortunate
