OF these 2.36S were in Manhattan, where
only fifty cases have been tried by

DRY FORCES TOO SMALL

| United States attorneys who have been
prosecuting violators Of the dry edicts
agree with the declaration Of Frank l..
Boyd, until recently Federal enforcement
agent here, that trying to make New
York arid with the present force of
agents is hopeless task" Several
thousand arrests have been made since
last January. probably hundred corvic-
lions obtained and scores have pleaded
guilty knowing they would be let off
with a light fine. but liquor continues to
be as plentiful, If not more So the agents
say and the body polite has come to
view the Eighteenth Amendment as more
or less of a joke.
Two warehouses located in Manhattan
and Brooklyn literally are bullying with
the vast amount of liquor Government
agents have confiscated since the edict
went into effect Several raids made by
the authorities have netted as high as
1,500 to 1000 cases of whislSey and from
q dozen TO twenty barrels Of distilled
spirits. All Of this booze, upon which
flat valuation of 100000 is placed,
slowly is going through the process of
evaporation in the warehouses No
means for its dispo sal have yet been dis
covered
The appropriation made by Congress
for enforcement of the Volstead act per-
mits the employing of only $500 agents
throughout the country. How many Of
these are located in New York city is q
deep secret. but the directors of enforce
ment frankly state that the force is not
adequate. Mr.. Boyd went so far as to
say, just before he retired. that the entire
Federal force probably would be suff-
Gent 10 clamp down tight the liquor lid
here There are or an average of 500
complaints of violations of the liquor law
made to the authorities each day and II
is stated that the facilities are so limited
only about ten per cent. of them ever are
investigated.
Surface Only Scratched.
Federal Enforcement Agent Merrett
of Brooklyn declares 1t is possible to
do little more than scratch the surface
with the available force. All of Brook
lyn. Staten Island and Long Island
comes under his Jurisdiction.
The places We are going after" he
said. ARE those that are openly yio-
lating the law. They are the type of
places that would be raided and closed
even if there were no Eighteenth
Amendment. 1t is easy for us to OBJ
tain evidence against them. We cam
not afford to chase complaints that
probably will keep our men tied up for
several days getting evidence upon
which to make an arrest. Our force
is too small for that.
THE public does not give us the
proper assistance in rounding up vio-
lators. They look upon us as being
more or less of joke. Until the public
changes its attitude toward prohibition
enforcement and the number of agents
is vastly increased no great Roadway
can be made against violations In this
city There has to be cooperation all
around IL the law is to be enforced"

authorities in Manhattan and Brook

(By Clarence ]. Toliver)

The so-called high cost of living
will not descend The cost of living
will go higher. Then will come the
| famine. After the famine the nations
of the earth Will return TO their first
work. The world war Is partly the
cause of high prices; the cost of liv-
Ing would have been high If there had
been no war. During these times and
the period through which we are pass
ing the war is the scapegoat for all
the miSfortunes of man. During II
score of years before the worlds war
men have come from the farms, drift
ed into the cities and work in the in
dustries. The automobile industry has
taken millions Of men; the shipbulld-
ing and other Industries have also
taken heavy toll from the soil, leav-
ing few to till the land. Tens of thou
sands came from the fields to gain
higher wage In the cities, only to learn
the higher the wage the higher the
cost of living. These toilers in our
cities must be supported by the prod
ucts of the soil. Shortage of farm
labor and the neglect to cultivate mil
lions of acres has caused food short
age and high prices. Nor is this all.
In few years will come famine. The
TO the first work. The governments
of nations cannot force the people to
this first work.
The church of the civilized nations
will come to the rescue of the world,
and after years of famine the earth
will flourish. The Bible is Gods gift
to man for his government. The ma
tions will have spiritual awakening,
fair percentage of Gods church will
return to the first work and there Will
he food for all. Genesis /, %: And
God said. Behold, ] have given you
every herb bearing seed which Is upon
the face of all the earth, and every
tree in which is the fruit of tree
yielding seed; to you 1t shall be for
meat" This first work is the care
of the seed, the planting and the mar
veSting. All are left undone and the
workers are allowing the earth to go
untitled. Now should come the com
mand from the church, Revelation ii,
,: Remember therefore from whence
thou art fallen and repent and do the
first works. or else | will come unto
thee quickly and | will remove the
candlestick out of his place, except
thou repent.
