EFFECT OF PROHIBITION
But Few Cases Of IntOxicntion in City
Court Last Half of Year

The influence of national prohibition on
the police court business in Burlington
was very marked last year. Out of the
10 ntoXicaton cases 96 We're tried dur
Ing the six months in which the nation
was wet and only IA We're tried after
July l. Even that comparison is hardly
| fair, for of the number who We're tried
on and after July l several We're hang
overs from the strenuous days Immediate
ly preceding the closing of the saloons.
OF the six months ending June 80 only
two We're wet in Burlington, the arrests
being mainly those made of persons who
accumulated their jays in Winooski.
| So far as other offences We're concerned
criminal class finds plenty to do in dry
| or wet times. The breach of the peace
cases were about the same, with 80 dur
Ing the first six months and 81 during
the latter half of the year.
A large amount of crime was committed
by minors during the year, There were
several cases of burglary, all the work
! of boys. The total number of these cases
was q, the largest in years. There was
also a considerable amount of adultery
and statutory assault. These were partly
the result of the cleanup in the city in
the attempt to stop the spread of venereal
diseases. There We're IA cases of adultery
and four of statutory assault, all in the
last six months Seven cases of prostitu-
ton were brought in the last six months
as compared will. two in the first half
| of the year.
| Automobile cases appeared during the
last half of the year and took up part
of the time after the liquor cases stopped
The number of these handled during the
year was % and nearly all were the re-
suit of the enforcement of the automobile
laws during the latter part of the year
Other cases which took considerable
time were those of children, nearly 4(
cases being cared for. There We're also /;
cases of grand larceny and seven fol-
prostitution. Other cases were assault
with intent to kill, violation of the milk
ordinances, night walking, non-support
ldesertion of children, selling liquor house
lof ill-fame, etc, which made the tota
number of cases the smallest number in
many years.

moth and 5,3S5 miles with the brown-tail
moth Twenty eight towns in New Hamp-
shire G in Vermont, s in Massachusetts,

found to be free from gypsy moth infesta-
ton and were eliminated from the quar-
antine area. There is now under quar-
antine on account of the gypsy moth 30
TAT square miles in New England.
Isolated colonies of the gypsy moth
