for Joh1, Barleycorn

Special Cores pondence
LOUISVILLE. Jan. 16.-Six months
ago the wake of John Barleycorn filled
the iails of louisville, and firing of
pistols disturbed the slumbers of the
conservative. Such a contrast was the
burial at midnight tonight of the few
scattered remains of the once proud
lord of the glass that the jails were
empty. and the churches were filled
throughout Kentucky. In every hamlet
where q member of the ". c. 7. U.
claimed residence a wake was held, in
every church was watch party, and
prayers of praise for the "dry" forces
that went over the top at 1901 a. m.
Bankers, who in the palmy days of
prosperous distilleries handled nearly
s1o0,00o,o0o in whisky certificates
through the Louisville clearing house,
say the passing of whisky was foreseen
by financial interests, and the loss to
banks will be trivial. Whisky GER

Tests conducted at hospitals and

Liquor Men Too Confident
Except for starting small and easily
handled backfres the liquor people made
no effort to counter the progress of pro-
hbition until the passage Of the Webb
Kenyon law. The only movement within
the trade to meet some of the most DO
tent arguments of the "Drys" was rem
resented by the Mode1 License Leae,ie
an organization that received compara-
lively little support from the saloon
interests, which never for a rsoment be-
lieved that their power in politics could
be entirely overborne.
Ihat this attitude has persisted to the
last is indicated by the fact that the
iiquor interests hoisted prices to almost
prohlbitive attitudes last July, and re-
famed huge stocks in warehouses, These
same stocks, which now constitute a
problem for the government officials.
who must guard them in bonded ware
houses until some means are found for
dlsposing OF them, without violating the
law which forbids export, import and
possession OF liquor anywhere but in
private homes.
Millions of gallons were held, in spite
OF the fact that other millions were
exports, apparently in anticipation of a
time when reaction from absolute pro-
hlbltion would afford an outlet at huge
profits. The hoped-for reaction failed to
materlallze during the period of war
time prohibition, and under the rigid
provisions of the constitutional amend
ment modifiction is all the more difficult,
though the liquor interests are hoping
now that the government, to solve the
problem OF the stored liquor, will agree
to buy it.

peal to N. Y. Ministers for

Nearly 900 pastors of more than
twenty-five denominations from every
one of the fifty-seven counties outside
CT greater New York yesterday sent
an appeal to their city brethren Of
the ministry urging observance of Law
and Order Sunday, which is tomorrow.
The appeal is supported by the Fed

asked every clergyman in America to
participate in the moral suasion move
ment for the upholding of law and
order with reference to making Amer
lea dry under the eighteenth amend

The country pastors declare their
intention of making good OF the en-
forcement OF the new prohibition law,
whether the New York City pastors
do or not. In order to do this, they
squarely support the Allied Citizens of
America, Inc, organized by the sup
porters OF the Anti-Saloon League, and
they serve notice on the Legislature,
the press, the politicians and the pub
about the enactment of prohibition is
pledged to it's enforcement.
''It is not fair that the members Of
little, struggling churches should sup
port this enforcement work, while great
city churches hold aloof and shield
their members of wealth and influence,
who would be worth even more than
their financial contributions, from
realizing and discnarging their respon-
sibility as citizens and as Christians, "
says the appeal to the city pastors.
We do not intend to default in the
performance of our own obligation,
even though New York City churches
do, and we are gratifed to learn that
there is of late some Improvement.
But VIC feel that the time has come for
an earnest, solemn protest against this
injustice, and for frank appeal to our
ministerial colleagues in the great city
to put themselves behind this move
ment, and in case there is opposition
within their official membership, that
this appeal be laid before such officials,
so that responsibility may be clear.

The final step in the work of en-

was taken tonight when Secretary
Glass approved finally the regulations
to be observed by agents of the Fed
eral government.
State Agents Selected
John F. Kramer, general prohibiton
commissioner. announced that he prac-
.ically had completed selection of his
corps Of state commissioners and local
agents and had been notified by them
that they were prepared to start to-
morrow morning on the task Of en-
forcing the amendment as provided in
the Volstead enforcement act.
There was little notice taken by gov
eminent officials of the end of all
licensed sales of liquor except at the
Treasury Department., where much ac-
tivity was shown at the offices of Of
ficials connected with prohibition en-
forcement. Their task. however, was
confined to the linking up of detailed
plans for aiding local authorities in
driving out the illegitimate dealer in
intoxicanrs. Officials said they ex-
pected a multiplicity of legal and
lesser tangles to ensue, but they were
making an effort to avoid as many of
these as possible.
Commissioner Kramer said he had a
staff of nearly 800 men ready to begin
their duties at midnight. About three
hundred of these will work under the
direction of the state prohibition en-
forcement officers, while the others will
serve much as did Internal Revenue
agents before wartime prohibition went
