ance of the prohibition enforcement bureau, an organization enormously supposed to carry out the Volstead law Attorney General Daugherty, who testified before a Congressional committee against the civil service law, ought to be hand in glove with the bureau in which, by the Volstead act itself, all the field places were excepted from the civil service act. And we have in their joint efforts the perfect fruitage of the spells system. There IS no need to tell any intelii- gent man what kind of service it is. l. could go. on ad minimum into the nauseous details. Indeed, men have been discharged from the prohibition service because they in sisted on the enforcement of the law.
 We all know the enormous quan- titles of liquor which these men have aided in smuggling into this country fro mthe Bahamas, from Canada and elsewhere. We know the illicit stills which yet flourish in every part of our country; the intemperance which IS rampant everywhere, wines and cocktails openly furnished in public restaurants in our great cities
 The Enforcement Bureau has been defined as An educational in stitution for the instruction of boot leggers at government expense If it were only that! If the student would only wait until he graduated before embarking in this most lucra- tive profession! But they practice it while they learn, and in doing this they show the way to others, tempt them to bribery and to the violation of the law until the bureau becomes an institution for the education not merely of bootleggers but of our whole people, in law-breaking, intem- perance and corruption, leading to the general encouragement of every kind of vice and crime The present crime wave has much of its source in this unworthy course followed by the advocates of prohibition.
 Most culpable has been the Anti Saloon League, the organization be- hind the Volstead act which made these places in the prohibition en- forcement service the mere plunder of congressman and other politicians MT. Volstead himself favored making these places political spells and I re- joice that such a man has been de- feated. Commissioner Haynes him self, with the best intentions of en- forcing the law, has hid his head in the sand like an ostrich, and insisted that the criminals who are admins tering the law were generally satis- factory"

 The Anti-Saloon League and Con gressman Volstead were accused of permitting, without a protest, the Enforcement Bureau to become and remain the spells of degenerate po- litical plunderers" and in this, they have themselves been guilty of an inn moral and wicked course.

Ray an Unwilling Thief
 in "Alias Julius Caesar

If you want to know how they ex- tract their sense of humor at the country clubs drop into the Rialto Theatre next week. Charles Rays latest picture Alias Julius Caesar" distributed by First National Pic lures, will be the feature and accord ing to all advance accounts 1t is the funniest comedy Ray has been seen in for months
 All the action and fun center around the wiles of group of plot ters to separate the star from his girl by making 1t impossible for him to take her to the country club dance
 In the race for favor he pits him self against the police, makes the acquaintance of smooth second story society thieves and narrowly escapes being arrested as one of the brother hood. The plot is marked by its brightness of detail and gems of humor that are inserted as Charles Ray is taken by this thief for an associate and is obliged to live up to this assumption temporarily in order to regain his good standing with the girl.
