of the law
Experience of governmental agencies
in the past in dealing with law viola
tors through such committees as Mr..
Roper asks the clergy to name has not
been altogether satisfactory. In the
first place the character of men who
show willingness to engage In this
sort of business is generally such that
trouble ensues. They are usually in
clined to go too far in their pursuit OF
evil doors and in that respect they
make it more difficult for the legally
appointed officers Of the law to do
their duty.
Mr.. Roper personally is not of the
narrow type of public official, as most
people here who know him will agree.
He has taken broad view OF the
whole prohibition question, although
insisting at all times that the obliga-
ton rested upon him to enforce the ex-
listing laws and that he meant to do 1t
as far as his resources would allow.
It is assumed here that the appeal to
the clergy for reinforcements in the
fight against liquor violations really
was prompted by the more nervous dry
campaigners, such as the Anti-saloon
League and various church temperance
boards. Although no one would admit
it this afternoon, it seems probable
that this circular was sent out at the
suggestion of these organizations in
the hope that a great army of church
committeeman would be formed who
would seek out and report to the ofic-
ers every offense or supposed offense
against the prohibition enforcement
laws.
No information could be gained today
regarding the number of pastors who
have complied with the request of the
Commissioner of Internal Revenue or
how many had refused to join in the
movement. In fact, the officials here
seemed to have very little knowledge
of the communication. a..

/ his daughter, and an Right-month-
old baby.
The baby is alleged to have been
the child Of Charles Marshall, the
accused man and his desire to prevent
the Miller girl from testifying against
him in a criminal assault case is given
by the authorities as the motive.
Marshall was under bond on a
charge of assaulting the Miller girl
about 10 months ago. Following the
assault Miss Miller's baby was born
Marshall was to have gone to trial
next month and Miss Miller would
have been the states chief witness
against him. Authorities allege that
he deliberately set out to murder the
whole family in order to prevent the
prosecution of the assault case.
Pearl Miller aged Is, was the only
member of the family to escape. She
saw the tragedy and her story result
ed in Marshall's arrest. About z
O'Clock Friday night, she says, several
dogs in the yard started barking,
Leonard Miller opened the door to
investigate. His father picked up a
shotgun and followed. They circled
the house, but found nothing SUSPECT
Gus.
The father and son had just reen-
tered the front hall when two shots
rang out in quick succession. Both
men fell dead on the floor Of the hall.
A second later a dynamite explo-
sion rocked the house, tearing away
large part of the kitchen.
Pearl Miller, terrified, ran to the
attic. Her sister, Fannie Green Mill
er, ran into the hall, clasping the
baby to her. A third shot was fired
and the sister fell dead near the
bodies of her father and brother.
The baby crawled from her arms and
began creeping around the floor in
the midst of the bodies.
Then Marshall entered, according
| to Pearl Miller and saw the baby
crawling on the floor. He dubbed it
to death with the butt end Of his
rifle, she alleged. Pearl Miller was
looking down from the attic and
watched him, too terrified to make a
sound.
She says that the murderer care
fully examined the bodies and went
to the kitchen, returning a few min
utes later with a coal oil can. Pour
| ing the oil over the furniture and
house, he applied match.
The house had been almost COM
pletely consumed by fire when res
cue party arrived, but they succeeded
in removing all the bodies except that
of the baby.
Sheriff Lewis hurried to Marshall's
home, a mile away, and he was To-
Gated in the woods back of his house.
He was taken to Aberdeen, Miss, for
safe keeping: He denied any knowl-
edge of the crime.

J. +. Essary, Washington correspon-
dent to Baltimore Sun, Of January %,
writes in regard to Roper's letter:
The Bureau of Internal Reve-
nue., evidently feeling itself powerless
to make prohibition effective on the
sweeping scale that the drastic element
would like, has invented the formation
Of unofficial vigilance committees in
every community, whose function it
will be to reinforce the efforts of the
Government agents.
The appointment Of these commit
tees, it is learned, has been placed in
the hands of the Catholic and Protest
ant clergy instead of in the hands OF
commercial organizations or. other
civic bodies which might be concerned
in law and order and good citizenship.
Because the internal revenue branch
OF the Government has turned to a
single class of men for this volunteer
service there promises to be resent
ment against what seems to be sys-
tematic shopping on the part Of up
lifting committeeman.
Incidentally, it became known today
that many of the clergy have refused
fatty to act upon the suggestion OF the
Government, taking the position that
law enforcement is the business of the
police and the courts; that the church
es ought not to be dragged into prohi-
b3tton shopping or private detecting,
and that it is presumptious on the part
of any official of the Government to
attempt to enlist churchmen in such
a campaign as has been undertaken by
the Bureau Of Internal Revenue.
The invitation of this bureau to the
clergy is contained in a circular letter
bearing the date OF January 5 and
signed, in print, by Daniel G. Roper,
Commissioner OF Internal Revenue.
This circular went out in the mails
to the heads of congregations, presum-
ably all over the country. It was not
given out publicly, it seems but was
mailed direct to the ministers of the
gospel to whom the appeal was ad-
dressed.
The Sun correspondent called upon
the officials of the Internal Revenue
Bureau today for copy of this circu-
Lar to compare it with copy received
from another source, but nobody in the
prohibition end of the bureau seemed
able to find the document. Instead a
circular dated January / and signed
by Mr.. Roper was produced. The
burden of this public statement was a
general appeal to the American people
to observe the Prohibition law and to
participate In Law and Order Sunday"
scheduled for celebration on January
-
The officials approached today SEEM
ed unable to lay their hands upon the
second communication addressed to
the clergy five days later, asking past
ors OF all churches to preach obedience
to the laws against the manufacture
and sale Of intoxicating beverages and
calling upon them to appoint select
committees from their congregations
whose duty it would be to aid the Gov
