IF YOU KNOW THE SIGN
YOU GET THE BOOZE
So Says Kane in Telling Of
Secret countersign Used
in City Saloons

Violations Of the wartime prohibition
law are assuming grave proportions in
this city, and government agents are
hindered in their investigations because
''hard stuff" is sold only to those who
knew a secret countersign with which
they identify each other.
This explanation of the liquor situa =
tion in Philadelphia today was vouch :
safed by Francis Fisher Kane, United
States district attorney here.
About Is per cent of the 1885
saloons in this city are operating he
said. They cannot subsist on sales of
of near beer and we know it. But it is
extremely hard to get evidence of other
sales.
Sales of hard liquors, both in sa
looms and speakeasies, are limited to
known patrons or visitors, who have
knowledge of a countersign, used to Sc
cure the drinks
He explained that his Office also is
hindered because of the number of men
needed to probe the chargs Of food
boarding in this city, but said the liquor
situation will be cleared up in the
near future.
