u. S. BARS ALL
BOOZE VESSELS
Foreign Owned Craft Cannot
Enter American Ports
Unless Dry.
YANKEE SHIPS STOP SALES
Ruling includes Porto Rico, Philip
pines, Hawaiian Islands, Alaska
the the Virgin Islands Shipping
Interests to Fight the Ruling.

Washington, Oct. 8.-Attorney Gen
eral Daugherty, III a sweeping deci-
sion, ruled liquor off of American
ships throughout the world and pro-
hibited the entrance into American
waters of foreign ships carrying Ii
quor, sealed or Open
The decision forces Chairman A. d.
Lasker of the shipping board to dis
continue the sale on all government
ships outside the territorial limits of
the United States, prevents the car
rying of liquor anywhere in the world
by any privately-owned ships flying
the American flag, and bars American
ports to the ships of any nation unless
their liquor stores are disposed of be-
fore they enter the territorial waters
of this country
American territorial waters are con-
strued by the ruling to include those
not only within the three-mile limit
of continental United States. but also
those within the same limit Of Porto
Rico, the Philippines, the Hawaiian
islands, Alaska, and the VirgiRislands.
The Panama canal zone is specifically
exempted by the statute.
The attorney generals decision,
which has been hanging fire for many
months, reverses the ruling Of the for
mer counsel for the United States
shipping board, Elmer Schlesinger of
Chicago, and is predicated upon deci-
sions of the United States Supreme
court in several cases.
There will be ne difficulty encoun-
tered with respect to enforcement OF
the law as it relates to American
ships; but the decision is certain
to preeipitate international complica-
tons with the big maritime nations of
the world
Already, the attorney general under
stands, foreign shipping interests are
prepared to fight in the courts and
will apply for temporary injunc-
ton restraining the enforcement of
the ruling against them until it's valid
ity can be tested in the courts.
This course may operate to prevent
the immediate holding up of the big
transatlantic liners which daily en-
ter American ports from Europe and
South America and the Pacific fleets
from Asiatic waters flying the flags
of foreign nations.
That the ruling eventually will be
upheld in it's application to foreign
ships is generally regarded here as
certain. This will make it necessary
for the big foreign lines to make
some arrangements whereby they can
dispose of liquor stores outside the
territorial waters of this country or
else cease to carry liquor stores at all.
Political leaders see in the ruling
boost for the pending ship subsidy
legislation, inasmuch as it will have
d tendency to bring to- the support OF
the merchant marine bill dry mem
bers of congress who have been threat
ening to vote against it because OF the
governments attitude in permitting
the sale of liquor on American ships,
an attitude which they held to be in
consistent with the prohibition law
and for which they accused the gov
eminent of being "the biggest bootleg
ger in the world

EDITORIAL.
GOOD FOR THE COUNCIL

THE city council is to be congrat-
ulated For taking a more sympa-
thetic attitude this year year toward
the public library than in recent years
and providing in the budget a sum
sufficient to permit it to begin a
comeback. The sum is meager, it
must be admitted, and the library
has been starved so long that it is in
an extremely emaciated condition,
with great needs. The library board,
however, is reasonable and fully con-
scious of the necessity of the city re-
dueing its debts and putting its house
in order, and it recognizes the prog
ress that is being made by the pres
ent administration in this direction
as result of a rigid program of
economy. However, the library is an
institution adequate support of which
should never be subject of debate
or question:; it should be as much
a matter of primary consideration
as our public schools, for it belongs
in the same class.
4he city is under solemn obliga-
lion to provide $4,000 yearly for the
maintenance of the library. That
amount would be small enough, in
deed, but it would be god-send com
pared with what has been the fortune
of the institution, Let us hope that
with the more liberal allowance made
this year, and the exhibition of re-
newed sympathy and interest, the in
stitution may become so Increasingly
useful during the year that more
money may be granted next year and
in couple of years the full obliga-
ton of the city toward it met.

Virginia fremont to her fiance, Har-

GO ON WITH THE STORY.
Bill realized at once that this new
development did not in the least af-
feet his own duty. His job had been
to find Harold and return him to
Virginia. This smirch in Harold s
life was question for the-two to
settle between them.
1t did, however, complicate the
work OF regeneration. Bill had
known squaw men before, and few
Of them had ever regenerated.
Harold shrugged once more. "And
is it anybody's business but my
own?" he asked.

was the answer. It's. my business
and somebody else's, too He turned

harold leaped then, savage as a
wolf, and instantly his rifle swung
IN his arms. Bills form, impressive
before, seemed simply to waken with
llte. Seemingly with one motion he
wrenched the gun from the mans
nand and sent him spinning against
the wall.
Before you start anything more,
near what I've got to offer you" His
voice lowered, and the words came
rather painfully. ITS your one
chance, Lounsbury--to come back.
Virginia fremont has come into the
North, looking for you. She's at nv
camp. She wants to take YOU back
with her."
Lounsbury's breath caught with a
strange, sobbing sound. Virginia

For the instant the black wrath
had left his face, and his thought
swung backward to his. own youth
to the days he had known Virginia

little awed at this manifestation of
her love.

face changed, and Bill couldn't have
