Moonshining in Kentucky is far diff
ferent from the swashbuckling. ro-
mantle. feud-like pictures seen in
the movies or described in popular
fiction.
That is what John ". Menzies
says about it. And Menzies ought TO
know as much about moonshining
as anybody else He is clerk of the
federal court of the eastern district
Of Kentucky and listens to scores of
such cases in any session Of the six
courts IN his district
Seldom do the "revenOors" and
the mOuntaineers engage in 81 ectac-
ular rife battles-so popular a gen
Grafton ago, Menzies said. When a
United States marshal wants
"moonshiner" TO appear in court to
answer a charge he frequently goes
to the phone and says something
like this.
Hello, Bill. The judge wants 10
see you at 3 o'clock tomorrow.
And Bill usually shows up.
There is plenty of mOonshinins
going on now in the hills Of eastern
Kentucky. according 70 government
reports. Wartime prohibition got it
started anew, and now constitution

The managers declare that the
present total OF IS per cent Of their

assured in advance that the thing
produced would have an unusually

ford 20 risk.
As consequence they announce
their intention hereafter Of catering
merely to the dancing craze until
some other means has been found OF
paying off the war debt.
The movies are taxed on q some
