U. S. DRY AGENTS TOLD
TO AVOID DISPLAY IN
DESTROYING LIQUORS

All federal prohibition agents
have been ordered to avoid un-
necessary display in the destruc-
tion of seized liquors. Commissioner

structions, he added, were issued
with a view to preventing needless
Irritation through public destruc-
tion of alcoholic beverages.
OMcials at the prohibition bureau
said 1t had never been the policy
Of the prohibition bureau to de-
stroy seized liquors which had
commercial value except upon
order OF a court.
Seized liquors, 1t was explained.
are held pending the outcome of
court proceedings and upon the
courts order are either disposed
of at public sale to buyers hold
ing permits, disposed of to labo-

to hospitals for medical purposes.
Moonshine liquor, however. Of
ficials stated, is not regarded by
the prohibition bureau as having
any comnieriial value, SO that when
an Illicit still is raided all the
captured liquor is destroyed on
the spot excepting a quantity which
is reserved as evidence against the

.RANSDE[[ URGES
SHIP SUBSIDY AID
Appeals to Members of Con.
gress From South to
Support Measure.

Members Of Congress from the
southern states were urged by Sem
ator RansdeIl. democrat. Louisiana, in
an address yesterday in the Senate.
to support for the benefit of the
south's ports pending legislation to
provide government aid for the mer-
chant marine.
Enactment of such legislation. the
Louisiana senator declared. would
free southern ports from the "vassa-
lage" in which, he asserted, they were
held by foreign shipping companies.
III the government does not extend
direct aid to shipping. and thereby
materially encourage men to enter
into the shipping business with a rea-
sonable prospect for earning a fair
return on their investment" said
Senator Ransdell. lit will be impos-
sible for the Shipping Board to dis
pose of the greater portion OF its very
large fleet of slow. moderate sized
vessels. Given reasonable assistance.
vessels of this class can operate from
a number of the smaller ports OF
America with a fair prospect of sue
cess, thereby establishing business
out of these ports to the great bene-
fit Of the country generally, increas-
ing the number Of its ocean ports and
preventing congestion.
Il would particularly invite the at
tentiCn of senators from southern
states to the fact that the compen-
sation or aid to the slower. smaller
cargo ships is of especial value to
the south, with its exports Of cotton.
lumber. tobacco and other bulky COM
modities. Without aid to these slower
cargo ships 1t is not probable that
many of our existing services in Ship
ping Board steamers can be contin-
ued out of southern ports. or that
these ports will maintain foothold
for the gradual development of the
faster and larger passenger ships. to
a share of which they are rightfullN
entitled.
Compensation for mail steamers.
amply justified by democratic prece-
dents, would not suffice for present
southern interests. There must be
also compensation for the cargo
'tramps' especially adapted to our
new and growing lines. if those lines
are to be saved to the ports of the
south Atlantic and the Gulf of Mex
ico.'
