LOCKS MAY BE USED AGAINST
 BOOTLECCERS

WASHINGTON, April 1S.-Use of the "padlock' weapon, to stamp out bootlegging and illicit distilling, is to be resorted to upon large scale over the United States.
 Prohibition Commissioner Haynes said that the "padlock" provision of the Volstead law, authorizing the seiz- ure and closing of places occupied by violators of the liquor laws may prove in the end to be greatest single method of drying up the country.
 Mr. Haynes, impressed with the sal utary effect in number of places fol- lowing the closing of hotels and other places where very serious violations were shown, now believes that the handicaps to prohibition enforcement must be overcome by the rigid appli- cation of this provision.
 The great degree of wetness prevail ing over the country, in spite of all that the federal authorities have done, has brought Commissioner Haynes to the conclusion that still more vigor- ous tactics must be employed.
 RELUCTANT TO USE IT
 Prohibition officials up to this time have been reluctant to employ the "padlock" provision to stop liquor making and selling. Even now, they declared, they would like to find some other equally effective way.
 The records of the prohibition en- forcement organizations in the differ ent states show very conclusively that small fines and light sentences generally imposed amount merely to a license to illicit liquor makers and vendors to do business.
 There are now pending in federal courts about 10000 liquor law cases.
 Officials cited that fact today to emphasize the importance of their plant to use the "padlock." It was de- cared that in the cases pending there are thousands of second and third of lenders. Ability to pay the fees of bondsmen and attorneys renders them practically immune from penitentiary service.
 According to the program agreed upon, officials will ask for the closing of buildings occupied by those known to be engaged in the making and sell ing Of intoxicating liquors as a busi- ness. Officials said they can stop great deal of the illicit bootlegging now going on by that means, especial " in the larger cities.

TUSKEGEE, Ala, April 1S.-Noted educators from all over the United States and thousands of colored peo- pie gathered here to participate in the unveiling of a $25,000 bronze statue of Booker T. Washington, great bene- factor of the colored race on the cam pus of Tuskegee University, which he founded

 Among the speakers of the day was Hon. Josephus Daniels, former secre- tary of the navy, and\Dr. Wallace Buttrick, president of the General Ed ucation Board of the Rockefeller Foundation.
 William G. Wilcox, president of the Board of Trustees of the University, conducted a special car bringing many notable personages from New York for the occasion. Julius Rosenwald, Chicago millionaire, conducted a party from Chicago.
 Tuskegee University was founded by Booker T. Washington in 1881. The only building at that time was an old chicken house.
 Today there are 190 buildings on the 3,000-acre campus, and the school has 1,842 colored students and 216 teachers.
 The statue is being placed in the center of triangle formed by three buildings, the Girls Trades Building, the Boys Trades Building and the chapel

LOS ANGELES, April IS. - Dlo- genes may now put up his lantern.
 The honest man has been found.
 And he plays poker, too.
 It may not be generally known, but there is a provision of the internal revenue law which provides that all winnings at poker, other card games, or gambling of any kind, shall be re- ported as income. Losses, however, may not be deducted.
 Arthur o. Kriete, former prohibition inspector, and now revenue, bond and income tax expert with offices in the International Bank Building, reported that among his income tax clients was man who declared him. self winner of $200 in poker games. He said he wished to include this in his statement of his income.

SOCIAL LIFE OF WHITE HOUSE
 IS TREBLED

WASHINGTON, April IS. - One of the busiest departments of the White House staff during the past two months has been that of the So- cial Department, Under the direction of Miss Laura Harlan, secretary to Mrs. Harding.
 When the Hardings entered the White House they decided to go through the entire formal social pro- gramme, which had been suspended during the Wilson Administration on account of the war and other req sons. The social calendar at the White House calls for four large for nal receptions, in addition to the public reception on New Years Day, Fand four formal dinners, in addition to the more informal "at homes" of Mrs. Harding and the dinners by the Cabinet officers.
 There, is a great demand for invi- tations to these formal receptions, and Mrs. Harding has been forced to announce about ten days in ad- vance of each one that the invita- tion lists have been closed. While there is a special invitation list for each reception it has always been customary to enlarge this list, and as news of the practice becomes known the requests become more nu- merOuS

Mr.. Coolidge.

Vice President Coolidge is returning
from his visit to the Pacific coast. and
will soon be In harness here again.
Maybe he will have something OF in
terest and value to tell the President
about conditions, political and other,
in that section Of the Union.
He did not go with any such object
in view, but to fill engagements. and
take his first look at the far west.
But while on his travels he has met
many persons Of note, participated in
many functions of Importance, and en-
joyed many opportunities for COM
merce with politicians, professional
men and business men. In this way
he must have gotten a line on things
in territory likely to play an infiuen-
tial part in this years stirring cam
paign.
In politics, it is hardly necessary to
say, Mr.. Coolidge knows his way
around He learned his trade in q
state where politics is played up to
the hilt and almost continuously. Un.
til recently, a governor was elected in
Massachusetts every year. One cam.
paign tread upon another's heels, SO
fast they followed.
So, when Mr.. Coolidge foregathers
with the cabinet. he should be able to
tell all and sundry about what the peo
pie of the great west are talking about
and express an opinion about what
they are likely to do when they &c
to the polls in November. He will find
