HAYNES W|LL make DRY
SHAKE-UP WIDESPREAD
Prohibition Head Will Dust
Officers Who Are Neglect

By ,. Frederick Essnry.
Especial to The Times Dispatch.


WASHINGTON. Oct. l6.--A Federal
prohibition cleanup and shake-up.
such as the country has not expert
enccd since the eighteenth amend
ment was ratified and the Volstcad
act was passed. Is under way.
Beginning in the two great wet
States OF the East. New York and
Pennsylvania. which are counted
among the Commonwealths where
prohibition was received with great
est reluctance and where it has been
enforced with Indifferent success, the
cleanup. under the direct generalship
of Prohibition Commissioner Roy a.
Haynes, will extend into many other
states, 1t was learned authoritativcly
today.
Demand Inv Enforcement.
Westward the campaign will make
ment organizations. II is declared in
official circles. which prove weak, or
worse. will be reorganized. Local Of
fcials will be cashiered if they do not
produce results. and replaced by
trusted lieutenants of sioner
Haynes. On the other hand, where
local officers actually try to combat
violators of the law, they will lie
given the full cooperation of the
Federal forces. working with them
rather than supplanting them. But
where local enforcement organiza-
tons seem wilfully ineffective, there
Will be new faces in the State organi-
cations. it Is asserted.
The newest campaign to enforce
prohibition is unique. in that the the
ory behind it is to stop the source of
supply rather than pursue the supply
after 1t is found at large. More than
half OF the nations legitimately

here today, is stored i'm Kentucky
warehouses, and whisky In great
quantities. it seems. has been maxi

from Kentucky and into New York.
The first move now under way. il is
said. is 10 put the lid down tighter
than IL has ever been upon the Ken
lucky warehouses.
Chnsc More or LeHx Futile.
Prohibitionists have contcnded from
tho start that SO long as the sup
plies leaked from their sources. the
chase of individual bootleggers with
the staff of field agents the govern
ment is able TO command. is more or
less futile. And enforcement om-
cials are now convinced of the same
thing.
The new drive against Volstead act
violations was started in New York,
where the enforcement OF the law had
broken down. There was something

WARE WASTE AND
WEAR WELL!
Human Bodies Are Poisoned by Their
Dun Waste. Most Illnesses
Are oreuentoble.

The human body has to cheated and
fine foods burned inside the body pro-
duce much waste. Allthiswaste should
be removed from the body regularly,
thoroughly, daily, by the eliminative
organs, which are the bowels, kid
reys, skim and to some extent the
lungs. These should act in harmony
IF the bowels, are inactive extra
effort is required of the others,
which easily become deranged. Many
medicines will force bowel action
temporarily but the after effects are
harmful. Many remedies are adver-
tiscd, some of which have proven
year after year to be reliable, effici-
ent, and without harmful action or
effect. Take Beecham's Pills for eX-
ample. For over 70 years Beech
ans has been household word all
over the world. 70 years Of use
by all sorts of folks, men, women
and even children, have proven first,
that Beecham's Pills do what is
claimed for them; second, that they
are harmless, do not produce bad
effects. Some medicine forces Nature
to unnatural action. Other medicines
like those contained in Beecham's
Pills assist Nature, act mildly, per-
suade and hence produce no harmful
effects. 1t is common to find fam
lilies in which Beecham's have been
used by several generations, their
use handed down from father to son
and from mother to daughter.
That's the best possible recon-
mendation for any remedy. Every
druggist sells BeechaIn's, Is glad to
do so because he knows that their
reputation has been won by merit.
