Virginia Prohibition Commits
sioner Smith Reports to
Governor.
Special Dispatc TO The Star.

RICHMOND, Va, January 1 (Spe-
ciaD.-Prohibition Commissioner Har-
ry B. Smith has made his report to
the governor, as required by law.
In this report the commissioner says
that there is reason to fear that the
liquor men are becoming so in
trenched that it will be hard to dis
lodge them, especially where the
moonShinerS are given support and
encouragement by the people of the
community in which they operate.
mir. Smith calls attention to the
SEX men to make raids, to watch
trains, steamers, country roads, raid
stills, attend court and in general to
do what would require force of not
less than twenty-five men. The last
legislature, at the behest of the enc
mics of prohibition, cut the appro-
priation to an insignificant sum, and
the lack of force to enforce the law
is responsible for the bootleg liquor
that is here.
Once again the request of the tramp
for food is heard at the doors of
the homes in the outskirts of the
city and once again is the hobo to
be seen ambling along the streets
and alleys. He is coming in the usual
wagon the bumpers and on the
brake rods. He is not handicapped
by baggage and the time for trains to
reach designated point does not
bother him. He says he is seeking
work. but that is what he is con-
stantIy afraid he will find.
Capt. S. r. Donohoe. federal prohi-
bition enforcement officer for this dis
trict. who was operated on a few days
ago, is in critical condition in a local
hospital.

ARLINGTON COUNTY,

An increase in gas price from $15C
to $1.75 a thousand cubic feet has
been denied the Rosslyn Gaslight
Company by the state corporation
commission.
The commission placed a valuation
of $128.134 on the company's Virginia
property, in contrast to the valua-
tion of $1S4.627 placed on the prop
erty for rate making purposes by
company experts, the chief of whom
was from Philadelphia.
Among the valuation items par.
TALLY turned down by the commits.
sion was old property of the com.
pany. not now in use, which the com.
pany maintained 1t should be allow
ed to hold for emergencies. This
item was valued by the company al
$24.125. Regarding this phase, the
commission said:
while this property is not now
used or disable in furnishing gas tc
the Rosslyn constituency. we think II
not unreasonable to allow the com.
pany to earn a return on half Of its
value as an incentive not to scrar
the outfit"
