ILLICIT DISTILLERS
GROWING DEFIANT
Carroll and Henderson G. I'M
ties Have Serious Problem
Before Them

Carroll and Henderson counties
seem more annoyed with illicit
whisky making and selling than
any Of the adjacent counties.
The moonshiners' are not only
numerous, but they are growing
more Or less defiant and threaten
ing in their attitude toward the
law-enforcement officer and toward
the public generally.
Only last week. near Wilders-
vile, Deputy Sheriff Luther Min
cey's barn was burned, supposedly
By incendiary, because Of Mr..
Mincey's activity in hunting down
unlawful whisky makers. One
good citizen Of WildersyilIe stated
that he had been asked to talk to
Mr.. Mincey about bis activities
along this line.
In Carroll county there are COM
munities where good citizens know
Of this illicit business, but they
are actually afraid to talk. They
would gladly see the business
driven out of their neighborhoods,
but to take an active part in
eradicating the curse they realize
that they would bring down upon
them the wrath Of these offenders
and their friends and endanger
4heir lives or the destruction of
their property.
The county has certainly come
to pretty pass when good citizens,
in order TO protect their homes and
property from destruction, must
keep their mouths closed against
the crime and wickedness about
them.
