ARREST $4,000
UNDER DRY ACT
Great Number Taken Into Custody
During First Six Months Of
Prohibition Law.
(By United Press }

Washington, July 19.-More than
$4,000 arrests were made during
the first six months of constitu-
tional prohibition just closed. Pro-
hibition Commissioner Cramer's an
nual report, soon to be issued, is
expected to estimate.
Data on which Cramer is to base
the report is being secured from
enforcement agents from all parts
of the country.
A large percentage Of arrests
were made by local police cooper
ating with Cramer but not directly
responsible to him. The number
of these arrests can only be esti-
mated, since reports are received
only from federal agents by
Cramer.
A total Of $4,000 arrests would
indicate that on an average Of one
in every 1000 persons in the United
States was charged with violation
of the prohibition law.
This average, however, gives but
an inadequate idea, federal officials
said, of the actual number of vio-
lations of the law, since presum-
ably q large number of violators
were detected.
