LAW ENFORCEMENT
Is DISCUSSED AT
CONVENTION HERE
Many Local Citizens and Wis
itors Pledge Support to
Aid Prosecution.

To secure more strict enforce
ment of law. and especially prohibi-
ton. was the object Of the Law En-.
forcement convention which met IN
au ali-day session Thursday at the
First Christian church.
Citizens Of South Bend. as well as
delegates from Laporte, Plymouth,
Elkhart. Knox and other northern
Indiana cities were In attendance.
This convention like many others
in session over the state, is the out
growth OF a State Law Enforce
ment convention held at Indianap-
oils, February g. At that conven-
ton the crystal.zed sentiment was
to the effect that unless the law
abiding citizens OF the united nation
took active steps 10 assist state and
federal officers in the enforcement
of laws including the laws resulting
from the 18th amendment, there
was grave danger Of the Volstead
act being repealed at the next con-
gresa.
