NEW YORK STATE
Is Placing a Dry Enforcement Law
On Her Statute Books

Following the action of the Lcgis-
lature of New Jersey in passing the
stringent law for the enforcement of
Prohibition. The lower House of the
New York General Assembly one day
last week passed dry enforcement
code by vote OF 81 to g. The code
is backed by Governor Miller and the
AntiSaloon League.
The debate on the measure brought
out some old time arguments and
claims from the vets. One member
showed his prejudice by declaring,

Assistant Acknowledgement George
{. Dixon ranks among the very high
est in the nation for efficient official
support OF the Eighteenth Amend
ment. As first assistant to c. W.
Middlekauff who has been given
charge of Prohibition enforcement by
Attorney General Brundage, Mr..
Dixon has rendered extraordinary
service in the fight against liquor
law volators. 1t is conceded from
New York to San Francisco that
Judge Kencsaw Mountain Lands has
used the injunction process against
lawless saloons more effectively than
any other judge in America. Most
of the injunction suits which resulted
in the issuance of closing orders by
Judge Lands were brought by At
torney General Brundage. These
cases were prepared and presented by
Mr.. Middlekaulf and Mr.. Dixon. The
success with which violators have
been prosecuted in Judge Lands
court is in a very large measure
due to the expert handling of the
cases i'll court and the painstaking
preparation OF the evidence and the
arguments i'll each case. While the
greater part of the work in the court
room has been very effectively con-
Quoted by Mr.. Middlekauff, to Mr..
Dixon has fallen large share OF the
burden OF and responsibility for get
ting cases ready for trial. Few people
realize the great mass of detail in
volved in preparing liquor case.
Considering the great number OF
suits filed by the attorney general
against violators in Chicago. as well
as in other sections of the state, Mr..
Dixon's success i'll being ready day
after day with cases strong enough to
carry convictions is really remark
able achievement. Long hours of in
cessant toll made success possible.
Night after night often into the morn
ing hours records had TO be arranged,
evidence checked up, legal authori-
ties compiled and arranged, witnesses
notified and other necessary prepare
tions made for trial. Largely TO Mr..
Dixon's conscientious and industrious
service in this respect is due the fact
that the ablest lawyers the liquor
men could hire have been yanquished

w. c. T. u.

If this were the silly season,
when excessive heat warps the
so-called intellectual processes
of the average human, we could
understand scare heads and
sensational stories based on the
fact that the w. c. 7. u. is
concerned for the religious
training of 10000 caddies, who
trail our tired business men
over the golf links on Sunday,
or for the rest and recreation
OF 100000 laborers who are al
legged to work seven days a
week.
But in March weather the de-
velopment of superexcitement
over such matters needs other
explanation. Even the fact that
the w. c. T. u. seeks to dis
courage the use of tobacco by
juveniles appears to us to be
no reason for alarm. Is, there

part of an effort to provoke a

should this servant be so anxious to

because he saw something in it which
had escaped all those generations OF

expected some personal advantage.

CANADIANS WORRIED
BY HEAVY INVASION
OF AMERICAN PLANTS
fFrom the Living AgeD

" AclAi NAig III ' AAAt7 ~ht7~-f
The industrial invasion of Canada
from the side of the border is caus-
ing some disquiet in English financial
circles. The Aoronto correspondent
of the Manchester Guardian has es.
timated that more than seven hun
bred branches of American industries
have been established during the past
ten years, and that several hundred
other American factories are seeking
Canadian locations at the present nc
ment.
While this represents but small
fraction in the totality of Canadian in
dustries. the reason usually given for
this migration TO Canada is signifi-
cant Most of the factories are using
their Canadian locations as a means
of more profitably filling their orders
to Great Britain. Such orders, when
received by the parent company in the
United States, are transmitted to the
Canadian branch. Because of the
present exchange rates. and the low
cost of ocean transportation, it is
said that certain forms of export bus
mess can be very pTofitably handled
in this way
There is also a feeling in some in
dustrial circles that before long a
preferential arrangement with the
British empire May be established
and that this will give Canadian
branch factories a marked advantag2
over factories in the United States,
so far as the British market is coz
cerned. IF this should develop, the
American branch factories would be

the low, heavy-lintelled door, in the

the beams and stone-work are really
