OF SOUTH NUMEROUS;
 50 ARE OFFICERS

CHARLESTOWN, W. Va.-The manufacture and sale of moonshine whisky in the mountains of South ern West Virginia is claiming the close attention of w. S. Hallanan, prohibition commissioner, who with large force of deputies continues to raid and arrest almost weekly.
 There have been times in the last few weeks when the officers have met determined resistance, and already two men-Preston Mullens, an alleged moonshiner, and John D. Kennedy, deputy sheriff-have lost their lives in the campaign. ] This fight, the most serious Tn recent wears, occurred in the Pan ther Creek section of McDoweli county. on the Virginia border. Panther Creek, the prohibition au- thorities say, is one of the most active moonshining districts in the
 state. There, according to MT. Hal
 lanan. have been gathered some ot
 the most famous manufacturers Of
 moonshine from Buchanan county, Virginia. They know all that is to be known about the industry, and , some of them are famed for the quality of their ''corn liquor Osu- aliv their stills are extremely dlffi- cult to locate, but gradually the pro Intuition officers are hunting ther out and destroying them.
 There is another kind of moon
 sinner in that section who IS glvini I the officers much trouble. He make !. his moonshine as quickly as possl Q ble. markets it with the least delay
 and then moves his still to som
 other place.
 n The country is mountainous an o rough, with many fertile valley; y These valleys, the commissioner ha g discovered, were last year used 'i a large extent for the growing
 sugar cane, the high price of suga
 having driven some of the oldtlm moonshiners to producing what the
 needed for domestic and moonshin :- purposes.

Federal Employees President
Expects Heavy Pruning in
Pay Revision Survey.

The National Federation of Fed
eral Employees this morning favored
an investigation Of the personnel of
the Government service in this city
10 definitely determine TO what ex-
tent the forces can be cut because
of the intention OF the next Con-
gress to considerably prune down
the number of Federal workers to a
peace-time basis.
PREDICT $4,000 CUT.
There has been much speculation
recently as to the number OF employees
who can be dropped from the rolls.
President Luther c. Steward. OF tho
Federal Employees Union this morn
ing admitted that there was a super
fuous Government personnel. and he
believed that q reduction OF from
10000 to $4,000 could be made. Others
estimate that a 1900 cut can and will
be made by Congress.
such estimates were today based on
civil service figures which show that
the Governments pre-war personnel
totaled about $1,000 employees In this
| city. During the war this number
armistice was signed this latter num-
Der has been reduced to approx
mately $4,000.
President Steward Is OF the opinion
that because OF this Government
growth, at least from 10000 to $4,000
| employees will be needed In WASH
| lngton as q permanent force. Such
number would be double the per-
| sonnet OF prewar times. Experts
generally agree that $4,000 or 5000
| employees Will be q sufficient number
to carry on the Federal work in
Washington.
10000 SUFFICIENT FORCE.
II the rehabilitation bill passes
Congress and the personnel Is rear
ranged according to it's recommends
| lions. II Is conceded that working
force Of less than 10000 will be suf-
ficient. Although opinions OF Gov
eminent officials differ on the sub
ject, Ii Is regarded as a conclusive
fact that when the next Congress
gets underway. 1t will reduce the
population OF this city by no less
than $4,000 through a pruning pro-
cess Of the Government personnel.
Since this action will be taken by
Congress and the various estimates
made as to the necessary size of the
Government forces. President Steward
believes that the number to be clint
rated can easily be arrived at by a
systematic Investigation of each de-
partment and, in view of differing
opinions, he favors a canvass to ar
rive at exact figures.
