determined at a conference Of leaders Of
the two wings scheduled for 10 o'clock

Pipe Connects
Barrel OF Mule
With Basement
Concealed Blind
Tiger UReQFthed in
Raid.

What is described blythe police as the
most carefully concealed "blind tiger"
ever found in indianapolis was unearthed
today following the discovery of two
young boys in an intoxicated condition
at Forty Third and Meridian streets last
night.
As the result Of the raid made by Lieu
tenant Jones and squad. George Wihkler,
Federal prohibition agent, and the par
ents of the boys today, Kostee Githoff,
proprietor of a poolroom at SO South
Illinois street, was arrested on a charge
Of operating a blind tiger"
After a diligent search the officers
found a barrel Of white mule buried
in the yard back Of the poolroom. 1t was
found under the floor of shed.
A copper pipe ran from the barrel to
the basement and under the stairway
ended in a faucet By the simple process
Of turning the faucet Githon was able
to readily supply the demands Of his
thirsty customers.
The boys who are Is and Is years old,
told the police that they had been di-
rected from a dance which they attended
to the poolroom where they obtained
liquor.
How the barrel was filed worried the
police for sometime, but finally Lieuten-
ant Jones kicked the door sill Of the
shed and found it was loose. Raising it
he discovered a hole in a lower sill. 1t
was found that the barrel was filled by
placing a funnel in the hole Of the lower
sill which carried the liquor to the
hidden barrel.

Human KuItures' HoUer
Over Hospitals, Living
Oft Stricken Warriors

WASHINGTON. Jan. 21.-Lives OF
Americas crippled war veterans are con-
stantly endangered by sn army. Of human
vultures" lowering over hospital areas. It
was learned officially today.
This situation has become so grave
that Government officials and members OF
Congress now are planning means Of ex-
terminating this new menace to disabled
war heroes. 1t was brought about. OFF,
cials said, by boOtleggers, drug purveyors
and other undesirables who focked TO
hospital areas to ply their trades on pay
days just outside the Government reserva-
lions.
The Government at present Is helpless
to prevent the debauchery of its stricken
warriors. Authorities in many instances
have fought these pay snatchers." The
principal complaint OF the officials was
against prohibition authorities
who failed to close avenues Of poison
Gus liquors now flooding practically every
hospital area In the country.
The age-old army menace Of camp fol-
lowers" It was stated, has been changed
to "hospital followers" Congress will
soon be asked TO. withhold part Of the
compensation given each hospitalized
soldier to prevent his exploitation by the
pay sn0tchers.
"Fhe most demoralizing situation IN
the countrys history has been brought
about by the extravagant expenditure
of government money by disabled vet
GRAMS" said Congressman Madden, iii
nOis In discussing the situation THE
government must control compensation
paid to soldiers so long as they are hos
pitalized, if 1t will end the menace.
There is a greater governmental obll-
CATION than caring for its wounded sol
diers.' he added, land that is to pre-
vent this care destroying them"
Mai Il. G. Bliss of the veterans bureau,
confirmed Congressman Madden's state
ment.

agents in hospital areas cannot be con-
trolled by the Government" the Major
