number Of drug addicts has increased
because Of the difficulty in getting
liquor. The success Of bootleggers,
too, appears to have taught the drug
peddlers new tricks and these traf-
fickers have increased their daring.
Many of the prisoners serving time or
awaiting trial for burglaries, highway
robberies and assaults are known to
have been associated with the boot
Logging industry
1t should be pointed out that there
is no desire to emphasize what should
be obvious-that inevitably the law
less element in any community would
be responsible for violations of the
prohibition law.
"In 1921" continues the Troy cor
respondent, "there were $3.50 arrests
in Troy. This is an unusually large
number compared with sother years,
but the increase is in part due to
conditions resulting from the strike of
traction employees. At the same time
It should be noted that the numerous
arrests made during that strike are
not reflected in the unprecedented
number of prisoners now in JAIL"
The correspondent makes special
point of the fact that the number of
arrests for public intoxication have
decreased markedly, and he finds that
only forty-four arrests were made by
the Federal prohibition officers for vio-
lations of the prohibition law, the ma
jority Of those arrested being saloon
keepers charged with selling intoxi-
cants. He quotes Police Justice
James J. Byron as follows:
$50 far as actual crime was con-
cerned the Saturday night drunkard
used to be quite harmless. But both
the stuff they are selling now and the
financial attractions Of procuring and
disposing Of it seem to multiply the
criminal type"
Minor Offenses Fall on.
The Albany correspondent, quotes
Judge John J. Brady, Police Magis-
trate, thus:
"As to minor offenses, which were
frequently associated with overindul-
gence in intoxicants. think there has

logging. the situation in the State is
much worse north of the Mohawk
Valley than south Of it. and the sale of
liquor much more common in the
cities than in the towns and villages,
generally speaking.
Bootlegging in the northern part of
the State appears to be a well organ
lied industry of great proportions.
The reports would indicate that very
considerable portion of the liquor
brought in from Canada is intended
for use in New York city, though a
very fair amount finds its way to
other cities. The activity of the boot
leggers Is clearly demonstrated by the
enforcement activity.
90 Automobile Seized Mt Malone.
A fair idea of the situation in the
far northern section of the State is
given in a dispatch from the corre-
spondent at Malone:
Seizures of sixty-nine liquor laden
autopobiles, the arrest of 112 alleged
booHeggers and the confiscation of
more than 10000 quarts of good and
had liquor. estimated as worth about
$780, 900, contributed to make the year
1921 the biggest and most active year
known by local enforcement officers in
the Canadian border country"
After thus summarizing the situa-
ton fox the last twelve months in only
one of the northern districts, the cor
respondent continues:
''In running down the booze snug

dollars Automobiles worth $4,000
were seized. but the greatest return to
the Government was from fines levied
on violators OF the law in the Federal
courts. The total for the first six
months was $4,000. and the total for
the last six months, the tabulation not
having been completed, will be beyond
that"
The question of insanity in New
York State and the possible bearing Of
prohibition upon 1t was taken up at
some length in the third article of this
series, published on Tuesday morning.
1t was shown that in the hast fiscal
year there was an increase in alcoholic
insanity in the State. Regarding the
effect of prohibition on the public
health the following was received from
the Albany correspondent:
THE officials of the State Health
Department will not commit them
selves as to whether prohibition has
had any appreciable effect on the
health of the people. A table on NOR
tality rates from various causes made
by the Health Department shows that
deaths from two of the diseases gen.
orally supposed to have been directly
attributable to the consumption of all
cohol. in a high percentage of cases,
have increased in this State since the
beginning of national prohibition.
These two diseases are Heart dis
ease and arteriosclerosis. For the five
Year period from 1913 to 1917, in
elusive. before prohibition, the death
rate q 100000 from heart disease was
210. In 1920. the first year Of prohi-
bition, the rate was 215., For the same
five year period before prohibition the
death rate a 100000 from arterio-
sclerosis was 44.9. For 1920 it was
'46.2.
"Cirrhosis of the liver and Bright's
disease, two .other ailments sup
posedly due, in a considerable number
of cases, to drinking, showed a con-
siderable decrease in 1920 as compared
with the figures for the five year
period, but only a slight decrease when
compared with 1919.
can analysis of the department
table shows, in fact, that of the five
diseases commonly connected In anti
prohibition days with the consumption
of liquor, the death rate has stood
still as regards one, has increased as
regards two, and has decreased with
regard to the remaining two"
(This is the seventh of the The New
York Herald's series Of articles on two
years Of prohibition. The next article,
to be printed tomorrow, will deal with
prohibition In New York City)

glers parts were played by customs
officials. the United States Marshal.
the Sheriff of Franklin county and
members of Troop B of the State Con-
stabulary. which established head
quarters in Malone last June. Bat
ties with the bootleggers were numer-
Gus. but the amount of gun play was
surprisingly small considering the
rough element engaged in bootlegging
and the determined attempts to run
in st. Lawrence county and on two
occasions State troopers were shot.
but not seriously wounded.
"The officers were out in Franklin
and surrounding counties nearly 100
nights and seizures were almost night
ly occurrences. There was an abund-
ance of Scotch gin included in the
liquor seized and a quantity of Cana
dian ale and beer"
The correspondent explains that
nearly all OF the bootleggers used au-
tomobiles, which were seized by the
officers and afterward disposed of. He
closes by saying:
1.-The record for 1920 was far out
distanced by the record for 1921, as far
as Malone is concerned"
Albany Saloons Prosper.
In Albany conditions again indicate
the activity and the organizing ability
of the bootleggers. The correspondent
wires:
"Albanians lave suffered very little
for the want of beverages of varying
alcoholic content since the passage of
the prohibition law. While number
Of the Albany saloons did 60 out of
business those that remain are MAX
ing more money than ever on the
sale of Illicit whisky and gin. Nor
does the available supply seem to be
diminishing.

general price. a drink. for so-called

as low as five cents a glass. This
beer is drawn from the spigot exactly
as was real beer in the days before
prohibition.
while the Canadian border rum
runners supply much Of the whisky
which is consumed here, there is now
available a quantity of moonshine
whisky apparently made in this State.
It has been ascertained, too, that the
homes of many Albanians are being
regularly supplied by bootleggers."
$50 Raids in Syracuse.
Activity Of enforcement officers at
Syracuse is shown in the following:
During the last year the Federal
prohibition enforcement agents have
made approximately $50 raids in this
district. Each raid resulted in the ar
rest. of one or more alleged violators
of the Volstead act, with one excep-
ton. The Syracuse district embraces
nineteen upstate counties and in
cludes the cities of Utica, Syracuse
Binghamton, Watertown and Oswego,
as we'll as other smaller cities. The
larger places contributed the largest
number of arrests to the total made by
the Federal officers.

months for public intoxication, accord

lice. There were thirty arrests for

HAYS'S $16O,OOOJ0B
DECISION DUE TO-DAY
Formal Resignation as POST
ter-General Expected
After Conference.
Special Dispatch to THE New York HERALD.
New York Herald Bureau,

Special Dispatch to THE New YORK HERALD.
New York Herald Bureau.
Washington. ID. c.. Jan. I3.
Formal announcement that VIII III
Hays will resign as Postmaster-Genera
to become the head of the motion pic
ture industry at salary of sl5O,OOO a
year is expected to be made tomorrow
following a conference of Mr.. Hays
and representatives OF the picture in
terests. The probability is that Mr..
Hays will continue in the Cabinet until
March 4.
President Harding's consent to Mr.
Hays's move is understood to have
been given reluctantly. At the same
time the President felt that he should
not stand in the way of Mr.. Hays talk
ing position which paid such high
salary-twelve times as much as he re-
ceives as a member of the Cabinet. s
Informally announcing the resignation
of Mr.. Hays when the proper time
comes Mr.. Harding is expected to mako
a public statement commencing the
work the chief of the postal service
has been doing. 1t Is known that Mr..
Harding regards Mr.. Hays as the best
Postmaster-General the country has
,flad In. many years.
Mr. Hayss administration has been
remarkably free from criticism, all
though the Post Office Department for
some time had been storm center. 1t
is not difficult to recall the many as
saults that were aimed at the admin
istration Of Albert S. Burleson a few
years ago.
During the time he has been the chief
of the Post Office Department Mr..
Hays has put into effect great many
reforms and has made reductions in
the cost OF operation without loss OF
efficiency.
There still Is sueculation but nothing
definite as to who may be Mr.. Hays's
successor I'm the Cabinet. Among the
names most mentioned are those of,
John II. Adams, the chairman of the
Republican National Committee; Hubert
ID. Work Of Colorado. who is First AS
sistant Postmaster-General and Sena-
tor Harry S. New of Indiana.
The New York herald., 1922-01-14

In addition. The records also show
27S violations of the State dry act
(Mullan-Gage law)." rr t
The Syracuse correspondent also
notes the fact that there has been a
persistent war; among the bootleg
gers "as to rights Of peddling."
Bandits Prey on BootleEgers.
While they furnish merely side
light on the situation in this State and
may have no Importance in determin-
ing conditions after two years of pro-
hibition innumerable stories from the
northern part Of the State indicate a
keen and almost open rivalry between
bootlegging groups. There also are
many stories, nearly all OF them with
a humorous side, of bandits preying on
tootleggers. 1t would seem not to be
an uncommon occurrence for a boot
logger to be held up and lose his stock
IN trade. Stories similar to these have
come from other States adjacent to
the Canadian border.
Some facts on the increase of crime
in the localities OF which they are
writing are cited by the Syracuse cor
respondent and also by the Troy cor
respondent. The Syracuse writer
says:
Police records show that 4,480 ar
rests were made during the year. The
number OF automobiles stolen was 295;
the number recovered 210. There have
been six murders and more than 100
attacks by thugs, in addition to scores
Of attacks on women"
Along a similar line the Troy cor
respondent says:
"The Rensselaer, county jail in this
city has more prisoners in it to-day
than it has had at any previous time.
According to police officials, nine
tenths of the prisoners have been con-
victed of, or are awaiting trial for,
crimes associated in one way or an
other with the traffic in liquor and
drugs. Whether or not the increased
Jail population can be attributed di-
rectly to prohibition, it is a fact that
the era Of dry law has seen an in
crease in crime in this city.

The intending purchaser has either to

The stuff sold is either bootlegged
