COPS BOOST BOOZE
RISK S8 PER CENT
BootIeggers Are Forced to Ad-
vance Price From S65 to
$50 a Case.

The Bootieggers Union, New York
Local No. 0o7s, Party W.. announced
yesterday through it's business agent
that it had been compelled by force Of
circumstances to raise the price of whis-
key from S65 to $50 a case. The S25 in
portation and distribution entailed by
the passage of the New York State en-
forcement law and the transformation
of the New York police force into 10000
prohibition agents.
If the actuaries consulted by the Boot
leggers Union are reliable. the chances
of a mans getting caught while attempt
Ing to peddle liquor by the case have
advanced 3S per cent. since Gov. Miller
decided that the only way in which the
people could find out whether or not
they liked the Volstead act was its en-
forcement
Here and there In this great city there
exist holes in the wall where one may
go. and. by making mystic signs and
agreeing to dash away after imbibing,
purchase rye whislSey by the drink. The
proprietors of these cloisters received the
first fla sh OF the decision TO add S25 to
the price Of each case. Almost uni
formly they explained to their customers
out of the sides OF their mouths and with
head bent low in pretence of polishing
brass that the boost had not been passed
long TO the consumer directly, but that
he must expect TO do his share by ac-
cepting reduction In the size of each
drink. For nearly two years now the
bartender instead OF the patron, has
been doing the pouring, and the slugs
have been getting smaller and smaller
SO that one OF them hardly moistens the
whistle
Before wartime prohibition the best Of
whiskey could be had wholesale at $12 q
case of one dozen bottles. In those days
\ there really were a dozen full bottles II
a case. Now the bootlegger has habit
OF extracting few and replacing then
with empty bottles. or with broken glass
and as he does not guarantee the CON
tents OF the cases to the retailer the
latter suffers again.
Until quite recently the retailer has
| figured on getting sixteen drinks out OF
/ a quart bottle. BY shaving each drink
| to make up for the new advance de-
| creed by the Bootleggers Union he vii
squeeze at least twenty OF them out o.
| a bottle. and like as not he'll do better
4 than that.

CITY PLEA TO HALT
PHONE BOOST DENIED
Upstate p. 5. C. Right to
Grant Temporary Rate Adj
vance Is Upheld.
FAIRNESS NOT AT ISSUE
Justice Lehman's Ruling
Holds Pending Final
Determination.

In decision yesterday Supreme
Court Justice Irving Lehman denied the
applca ton of the city for permanent
injunction preventing the New York
Telephone Company from enforcing IN
creased rates amounting TO 2S per cent
that went in effect April l. His decision
upholds the right Of the upstate PUBIC
Service Commission TO consent 10 tenn
porary advance in the rates pending
final determination, without holding
public hearings on the matter, as As
sistant Corporation Counsel Fertig con-
tended should have been held. He
points out that the city does not allege
that the old rate save reasonable re-
turn to the company but merely seeks
TO block the new rates on the question
of the Public Service Commissions au-
thority.
II need not even now decide that the
commission has the power to grant sucn
an increase without final hearing he
said. II merely decide that the commits
sion has the power to consent to ralse
in rates without determining what rates
are rea sonable. when it appears that con-
ditions prevailing when the commission
made it's original rate order have ma
terially changed.
"An order fixing maximum charges,
like a statute of the Legislature fixing
maximum rates is an attempt to predict
for future years the charges that VIII
yield a fair return. The prediction must
square with the facts or be cast aside as
worthless. All we can say at the outset
is that the power to regulate exists. The
validity of its exercise depends upon the
nicely of judgment between forecast ana
events. 1t would be unjust and. as in
some cases. even beyond the power OF
the Legislature. to require the corpora
ton furnishing telephone service to abide
during these months by an order made
out at an earlier period, If the results

sons who feel uncomfortable after
Sleeping may generally trace their
unpleasant feelings to other causes
than to too much sleep, which may
have been heavy because of an UNI
healthy condition of the blood, want
of ventilation or INSTRUCTED circula-
ton from improper clothing or posi-
ton.
No one should become so fatigued
by work of muscle or brain that a
good nights rest will not follow and
afford complete recuperation.
1t is important to have several
hours sleep before midnight and bet
ter to sleep during the shades of
night than when the u bids all
to be astir, yet it is better to take
a nap during the day than not to
sleep enough. Indeed. a little nap
before the noon meal will rest the
nerves and promote digestion.
DO not sleep just after eating, as
it retards digestion. Stimulants OF
any kind should not be resorted to
in the hope of gaining strength. An
increase of vigor can only be had
from the nutritive particles in the
blood, which were obtained from the
food previously eaten and has been
oxygenized by contact with good all
in the lungs and by the rest which
eleeD affords.
