Economy Liquor
Law Enforcement
Now Called For

Washington, Sept. 27-The ma
tIon-wide cry for economy In gov
ernment administration justifies
a regrouping Of liquor law person
mel and a transfer of purely en-
foreement functions from the
treasury to the department Of JUS
tice, il was asserted recently by
Assistant Attorney General Goff.
Dry law enforcement IS piling
up needless expense for the gov
ernment under present methods,
Colonel Goff said.
sThe work OF handling Volstead
law violations must be put on a
systematic basis.
"The jobs now done by dry law
agents often have to be done all
over again after cases reach the
'department Of justice. This repre-
epts wasted effort and loss TO the
taxpayers. "
Best efficiency in dry law en-
forcement will not come until ac-
tfvIties which are along strictly
enforcement and detection lines
are co-ordinated with the depart
ment Of justice. is Goff's opinion
The government could make nc
better economy move at this time
nor one that would bring a great
en- degree Of efficiency he declared

The county school board has con-
sented to the consolidation for the
remainder of this term of the Cater
and Heidtville schools. Perhaps the
consolidation will be permanent. The
idea is extending that in community
schools lies the solution of rural edu-
cation. By this plan one big school
can serve territory where there are
now two to half dozen small ones.
The automobile will make this pos
sible, the school district bringing to
school the children of families that do
not own cars. This will give schools
of hundred or more scholars with
two or three well-trained teachers in
stead of five or six of lesser attain
ment. 1t may possibly also result in
lighter taxation.

That little scrap between British

latter were killed and a number more
wounded and captured, should be an
object lesson to the adherents of the

ference between -constabulary and
: black and tan" police and regular
troops, and the disorders in Ireland
if continued will inevitably cause the
British government to use its soldiers
with crushing force.

cost the government $4,000, and now
it is planned that Congress appro-
pirate 100000 for a similar occasion

SO is enough for the government to
spend on the Inauguration, and for
once we agree with him. If the peo-
pie of Washington want an inaugural
ball, why don't they take up a collec-
ton, sell tickets or do something be-
