people Of the United States when
their lives are placed in danger by

''Some people seem surprised that

''The cries of the bereft children OF
the faithful prohibition officers rise

''It is nothing less than murderous
to expect prohibition officers to await
the fire of bootleggers with guns in
their hands.
"Bootleggers are the worst kind OF

They are dangerous in the extreme.
When a bootlegger draws a gun he
