NEW YORK GOVERNOR
SAYS POLICE FORCE
CAN DRY UP N. Y. c.
Can Enforce Law Without
Adding to Numbers or
Neglecting Other Work

Governor Miller of New York
believes that the New York
City police force man enforce
Prohibition without relaxing its
vigilance with respect to other
violations and without aug
menting its personnel by so
much as single bluecoat.
To illustrate his contention,
the Governor recalls that i'll the
days before Prohibition any
police commissioner could
clamp the lid on Sunday sell
ing by merely passing the word
along to the bluecoats who
pound the pavements. The
Governor explained:
1t is not my duty 10 en-
force the laws i'll New
York City, but it is my
duty to interfere with the
head OF the police depart
ment ii he does not do his
duty.
Governor Miller's assumption
that no saloon can prosper
enough TO maintain itself on
sales OF soft drinks would seem
to forecast the end OF the cor
ner groggery and neighborhood
cafe.

The Supreme Court of Virginia has
decided that the Volstead enforce

Prohibition law, and that therefore
the state courts have the authority to
enforce the state law.

Officials are Pleased

In commenting on the new ruling,
Frank d. Richardson, regional Pro-
hibition director of the central dis
trict, said "The order limiting drug
gists to five case Withdrawals OF
whisky practically stops bootlegging
from warehouses. State Director
Ralph Stone said: ut is the biggest
thing that has happened i'll long
time. 1t means that we have only
the moonshiners to deal with now.
The most of our troubles are over"
Anti-Saloon League Victories
The new order relative to permits
is distinct victory for the Anti
Saloon League. Wayne B. Wheeler,
general counsel for the League
pointed out many months ago that
the permit system under which liquor
in wholesale quantities found its way
to bootleggers was unwarranted by
the Nolstead Act. Mr.. Wheeler's
protests against the Interpretation of
the law making wholesale violations
possible finally resulted in the rulings
which checked this particular form of
law-breaking.
Another League victory was won
when orders were issued denying per-
mits to purchase alcohol to manufac-

 MOleswOrth snid tonight that he has three pitchers ready to go to- morrow, but that he will not pick the one until tomorrow afternoon. The three arc Newton, Frenick and WhitebiII.
 The boss of the BarOns would have liked to have pInyed today, but he was in pretty good hUmOr after the big victory of yesterday, especially because the game showed uD young Phil Morrison in such good light. Phil had to pass up credit for winning the game under the rules, but it was his victory in the mind of his man ager. The yOungster was started for the first time this spring and did not allow run for eight in- nings, which was mighty gratffv- ing to MOlesworth. who made the prediction today that Phil will turn out to be as great n pitcher as his older brother, Johnny.

afternoon it looked like Messrs. Jaffe, Newman, Leighton and Vance were fast making progress as eligibles for membership in the w. O. w.
 Taking the Woodward links by and large, however, they are sporty. Rick Woodward, boss of the Birming- ham Baseball club. does most of his golfing at Woodward. Of course, there are times when Rick journeys out to Roebuck, or the Country club, but most of his golfing is done right out there on the Woodward course.
 The Birmingham district now has four golf courses two 1S-holers and two 9-holers. Roebuck and the country club furnish the long-distance links, while the Woodward club and the Hillcre5t Country club furnish the short~distance affairs. In each of the latter clubs, however the officials are going right ahead making ar- engagements for 10-hole courses. At Woodward the ploughing is going on right now for the turf of the other nine holes. surveying and laying out already having been done by Charlie Hall, golf pro at the Birmingham Country club.
 There's but one thing lacking now a municipal golf course. This almost became a reality once when The Age Herald got in and pushed and pulled and coaxed for a course at Green Springs. Just as soon as the ma chinery was in motion for completing a golf course for the people of Bir- mingham, along came the war, and with the conflict raging in Europe many golf clubs over the country talked of turning the courses into truck farms for the raising of food for our soldiers. Since the conflict was stopped in Europe the matter has not been taken up again. but me- thinks it would be great idea for sion of Birmingham to put plank in his platform calling for the build ing of 9 municipal golf course at Green Springs. A good live wire with a platform calling for more and bet ter parks and playgrounds free base ball diamonds and tennis grounds for the young bioods and a city-open golf links would certainly make hit with the voters, and at the same time he would be doing humanity good turn by encouraging and helping it to play. Few of the Magic City citizens who have reached maturity and are guiding themselves on business ca reer play enough. They realize the mistake too late and when the real ization comes it's tour or rest camps and sanatoriums and the like, seeking to regain the pep and the energy that will never return.

Through the courtesy of Andy Jaffe, who is a member of the Woodward club, I motored out there Tuesday afternoon. and with the redoubtable Andy, the topping MT. Newman and the slicing MT. Leighton we played a foursome for the drinks. MT. Leigh ton and I duly paid for the yolstead cocktails, but even in defeat, MT. Leighton intimated that Newman and Jaffee were better subtracters than adders What he meant by that know not but people will have their theories every now and then.
 The beautiful little clubhouse stands atop hill, nesting in the pines. It is really gem of archi- lecture, and one of the prettiest and most convenient clubhouses in the en- tire state of Alabama Teeing off for the first hole and coming in for the ninth, one finishes right behind the clubhouse. Driving off from the first tee one is trapped by a pine grove at the foot of the hill, and on the approach to the first hole. The idea is to clear the tree tops with loft shot, or hook to the right and play the approach with a machie niblic, It is not a long hole, but a treacherous one.
 Coming in on the ninth reminds one of the battle of Bunker Hill. A good drive from the tee carries one on a bluff fairway. The green sits atop a knoll. If one overplays the green he is lost. If he underplays it, his ball more than likely will play a boom erang and start bounding back to- wards him. If the latter happens, the best shot to play is to try for the ball on the wing as one yields baseball bat and drive it back to- wards the green. This ninth hole is one of the most difficult in golfdom, and there are few members of the Woodward club who play the ninth with the record of not breaking that part of the Ten Commandments which starts off Thou shalt not take the name"
 As the course now stands, the put ting greens are made up exclusively of sand, This makes them excep- tjonally fast, and the golf devotee who is used to playing on turf putting greens will everyday his shots if he is not ultra-careful. Of course, the sand green idea is only temporary. however, and in the course of due time the greens will sport a pretty short dress of green turf, On some of the fairways woods line the course, and several times during Tuesday
