Stoninston, July 12-"It is not go- ing to be a hard job to stop the sale of good liquor for the authorities know pretty well where it is and how to combat traffic in it but moonshine and home brew, products of dark cellars, will be with us as long as prohibition" declared Prosecuting At torney Benjaf1lin H. Hewitt in pre- senting a case to the StoninSton Town court today.
 MT. Hewitt said he had received no law since prohibition went into effect on July 1, 1919, untily after July 1, 1922, when a complaint was entered against an old Mystic man who will be tried on Saturday.
 'tIn three years no arrest for viola ton of liquor laws were made by To- cal authorities said MT. Hewitt, mot more than a half dozen by the Fed agents and not one citizen in StOn- ington's 10000 inhabitants took suffi- cient interest to make a complaint to the prosecuting attorney.
 we have only a small paid police force, all good men, but they are the ones the boot1eggerS steer clear of. There are no funds to hire outside sleuths and if there were it would be pretty hard to get any good men for such work.
 .I am ready to prosecute any man who is violating this or any other criminal law but can't get the evil dence myself.

ASK ALLIES FOR WAIVER OF PAYMENT
Germany Asks for De- lay in Order to Meet Payment for Cargoes of Wheat Now on the High Seas from. the U. s.

Paris, July 12-(By the A. P.)- The German representatives today submitted to the separations comm1s- sion a. formal note requesting a mora torium on separations payments for the remainder of the present year. The note stated that the 22.000.0o0 gold marks due on Saturday were available if the commission insisted upon this payment. but recomme end ed that it also be waived
 The German request did not specify an extension of the moratorium throughout the next two years as had been forecast in some quarters, but urged the commission to consider Germanys conditions and make pulp lie as soon as possible a complete plan for her relief.
 Special Meeting. Today
 The commission will hold a special meeting probably this afternoon to which will not be published until the commission has had time to consider it. The commission in the meantime has instructed the allied committee on guarantees to hasten it's report.
 The reason for the request for de- Iay on the July payment is that Ger many is buying wheat to last until the October harvest. Wheat from the United States for this purpose is now on the sea, it is explained, ard if the July. payments were made there would not be enough foreign money in the treasury to meet the wheat bill, it is claimed.
 The two German representatives said to the correspondent today that although the Rathenau assassination was a large factor in precip1tating the present crisis it had reacted heavily against the monarchists.
 Not Afraid They Say
 We are not afraid of being assas- sinated, and the republic is in no dan ger" they affirmed in substance. "The trouble in Germany is a sort of de- moralizatiOn and desperation among classes once well to do."

suppression inferred.
 Despite the statements of the med lca1 Investigators who are connected with the case that they are not in any way trying to suppress the true story behind the suicide. a strong suspicion exists that they are en- deavoring to do so. According to a report sent by Medical Examiner W. H. Donaldson of Fairfield to Coroner John J. Phelan the cause of the death is given as accidental drown ing.
 pr. Donaldson was interviewed at his home yesterday by a Times man and after telling his story, he recom. mended that the reporters interview pr. James A. Christian.
 One of the first questions that was asked Dr. Donaldson was, why, when he was first called in to investigate the case. did he pronounce his find- ing as that of suicide, and three hours later, after he had discovered the identity of the woman, change it to accidental drowning. This. ne stated he did because he was satisfied in his mind that the woman was drown ed by accident.
 Odor of Alcohol.
 He was then asked if the greenish fluid that she discharged from her mouth did not have a strong smell of alcohol To this question he answered that he was told by pr. J. A Christian who was the first med ical man to arrive on the scene, that she had emitted a greenish mixture which did have about it the odor of alcohol.
 Do you think that the woman took poison?" was the next question.
 To this he answered, She may have taken poison.''
 'sWe11, why, in case as you say, she may have taken poison, did you not perform autopsy On the body to determine the exact cause of death ?'
 In answer to this question he turned to the reporter and said, What if an was performed, and poison found in the. stomach, what good would it do''
 Do you not think that it is your duty as a public servant to perform an autopsy when the case warrants one?" he was asked. ''Yes, but what good would it do?''
 Seeing that it would sbe useless to pursue this line of questioning further, the reporter went to the home of Dr. James A. Christian, who was the first doctor to arrive on the scene after the body of the woman had been taken from the water
