 LOS ANGELES. Oct 25.-A great barrier will soon be spread around southern California by public and rail road officials to check the influx of hoboes, box-car itinerants. wanderers with radical inclinations and crimi- nals
 The unusual steps to be taken by the officials will be formulated at an early conference to be called by Chief of Police Charles A. Jones, of Los Angeles.
 Representatives of the district at torney's office. railroad special agents 0olicc and public officials of cities and towns throughout Southern California aUd agents of the government will be requested by Chief Jones to gather and outline plan to halt a flow of idlers reported en route to this sec ton.
 According to Jones. the migration of hoboes and other undesirables has started unusually early, and from re ports received by the police execu- tive and unprecedented situation will confront peace officers this fall.
 "To check the migration at once and spread word that Southern Cali fornia is a poor place for undcsirables to stop for the winter" said Jones. q shall urge that rock-piles be instituted in every Southern California town and city and seek the cooperation of every official to make this section the turning back point for wanderers"

M0OMShIMERS HAVE
COUNTERFEIT SEALS
RAID IN MUSHROOM COUNTY Dis.
CLOSES UNUSUAL EQUIPMENT.

That illicit makers of whisky are
now using counterfeit government
seals 10 deceive thor customers was
proved when members of the State
Police raided the home Of II. w. Berg
on the Cedar Springs road in Muske.
gon county and seized triple still,
240 quarts OF liquor and a quality
OF counterfeit seals and labels. Mus.
kegon county officials took part in the
raid and Mrs. Berg was arrested and
arraigned before Justice Turner.
A large quantity OF materials for
making liquor and also bottles and
corks were found. There were chemi.
Gals for coloring the whisky and an
apparatus for testing its strength.
Labels found in the house stated that
the liquor was bottled in bond"
Evidently the moonshiners expected
TO market their product as the genuine
product of widely-known distilleries.
This bears out the contention of Food
ad Drug Commissioner Fred Wood
worth that people who buy whisky in
these times have no assurance that
they are not being cheated as TO
quality.

IN STATES FORMERLY WET.

While it was abe case for the first
year after Michigan adopted prohibi.
ton that the bootleggers were mainly
busy in attempts to bring whisky into
this state, the tide OF smuggling liz
now reversed. Liquor is smuggled
across the border from Canada and
then taken into the states from which
il was formerly run into Michigan.
The State Police post at South
lockwood maintains n strict watch
for this sort OF traffic over the Dixie
Highway to Toledo and q number of
automobile cargoes have been seized.
Travel over this highway is under
surveillance and il has become an I'm.
popular route for criminals. Recently
when word was sent out OF a bond
office robbery in Detroit, she State
placed chain across this highway
and stopped all cars, for purposes of
questioning. Even squad OF Detroit
detectives who had been sent out
were stopped and made to prove their
