Five States Give Most Trouble.
In addition to showing the activities
of tie Federal officials the table also
illustrates the extent Of the Illicit
traffic. Regarding the situation as
generally viewed by officials In Wash
lngton, the correspondent says:
New York. California, Ohio. North
Carolina and Georgia, in the order
named. are generally regarded by offi-
cials as the States In which 1t Is most
difficult to enforce prohibition. These
would qualify as the wettest sections
were a map to be made showing the
comparative dryness Of the different
sections of the country. Prohibition
officials admit this privately. but pub
licly they are unwilling to make COM
PARSONS.
Delaware. it would appear, Is the
dryest State. Just one gallon Of H.
legal whisky was seized IN that State
last year. No stills were taken and
but fifty-two gallons. Of beer. Della
ware, 1t would seem, has nearly ap-
preached that State Of absolute dry
ness intended by the Eighteenth
Amendment and the volstead law. At
least Delaware appears to enjoy this
distinction in so far as the officials
are aware.
1.-The exact standing Of the State
In relation to each other Is a matter
of much speculation. Between some
tie dividing line is so faint that 1t is
almost impossible to determine where
it lies"
1t is interesting to note in connec-
ton with the seizure Of stills-and the
vets have not overlooked the oppor-
tunity OF noting it-that approx
mately SO per cent. Of the total OF
seizures were In Southern States that
had been supposedly dry before ma
tional prohibition. The record as to
seizures in these States follow:
The New York herald., 1922-01-11

There were SLIP criminal cases Of
all character pending in the Federal
courts on June 80. 1921. according to
figures received from the Department
of Justice. or this number 10.365 were
prohibition cases and 6,558 were inter-
nal revenue cases.
There were 9.72S civil cases pend
ing in the Federal courts on the same

made to arrests by Federal officials
only. the estimated total for the year
being $4,000. or possibly 100000 for
the two years of prohibition. State
and local officials, of course. made
many more. One suggested basis of
computation proposed the multiplica-
ton of the number of arrests by Fed
eral officials by five. on the theory
that State and local officials made four
arrests to every one made by the Fed
eral officers. This basis is arbitrary
and seems unjustifiable. in view of the
varying conditions. 1t would bring
the total of arrests to 100000. There
may be justice in saying the total
number OF arrests for violation OF the
prohibition law has been 100000.
The activities of the Federal officials
for the fiscal year ending June 80,
1920, is well shown in the following
table taken from the official report:

10 per cent Of the tonnage wes in

since. January, 1922. has this ratio
been above 40 per cent, the Shipping

Here's a New Way TO
Kill Those Pesky
Mosquitoes
By Cosmopolitan News Service.

NEW YORK, Aug. 21.-ln
the land of citronella--New
Jersey-inhabitants are today
practicing a new way of killing
mosquitoes.
When a mosquito sinks the
teeth of its foot claws into its
victim, it always selects an open
pore.
The way to slay the mos
quito, experts of Hoboken and
Paterson say. is to wait until
the insect lights and bores into
the skin, and then to stop
breathing. The pore will close
up and the mosquito is thus
caught in a trap, and can be
killed at leisure.
1t is pointed out the scheme
works just as well as holding
ones breath when crossing q
muddy road so as not to sink
in the mire.
