HOTEL At CANAAN
REVEALS BIG STORE
Enforcement Officers Found Two Hid
ing Places, One of Them Back
of Sliding Wall.

/ Burlington, Oct. 2l.-Enforcemen1
officers brought here yesterday a largt
amount OF liquor seized in the Canaan
house at Canaan and from two auto
biles. This hotel is next door to the
U. s. customs house.
AT the Canaan house the officers are
alleged to have found two places for
retailing liquor. One was equipped
| with paraphernalia Of former times,
even to the mixer and lemons. The
officers also found secret chamber
, in which a large quantity Of liquor
was found.
General and Vermont dry agents
searched the hotel for some time be-
fore they were successful. On an up
per floor in what was thought to be a
bed room was found one OF the bars.
There were bottles partially filed with
whiskey and the other ingredients of
mixed drinks.
The biggest seizure was made in a
room fitted up in the cellar and os-
tensibly used for a store room. On
one side was a wall fitted with q shelf
for storing ketchup and other supplies.
One of the agents discovered that the
wall could slide and on sliding 1t back
he found vault which could have held
so cases. There were about 7b bottles
OF whiskey in it. In other places were
found glasses and empty bottles. En-
trance could be gained. to the cellar by
means Of rear door which slid up
into the wall. As the result of the
seizure the proprietors Of the hotel, A.
4. Stevens and i. NJ. Buck, were ar
rested and given hearing in New
port, where they furnished $1,000 bail
each.
The other seizures were made on
the Barton road south Of Newport.
About 5 o'clock In the morning one
gang Of prohibition officers stopped a
new Buick roadster. w. D. Perkins
Of Turner's Falls, Mass, was in the
car and stored in every conceivable
place were 27 cases of whiskey. The
car bore Vermont license number but
it was found that the car belonged in
Massachusetts. Perkins was tried on
a charge of using false number plates
and was fined $50 for that offense. He
paid the fine. Later he was arraigned
before the United States commission
Ell and furnished bail.
While this gang Of officers was TAX
ing care of the Perkins case, another
crew was called on to watch the road
while they were gone and it wasn't
Iong before Erick johnson of Wal
than, Mass, appeared in an ancient |
Pierce Arrow, 1912 model. The ma
.hine was wheeling along at good
rate OF speed when the government
men stopped it and found in the rear,
three cases. In the car with him was
Herman Rogers Of Wellesley, Mass,
who claimed that he was merely
passenger on his way home TO Massa-
.husetts. Both men were given q
,earing before the United States COM
missioner and were released under
300 bail in each case. The car was
AIKEN to Rutland. The Buick car was

STADIUM FILLING UP.
For Harvard Centre Contest Perhaps
the Last Between the Two.

Cambridge, Mass, Oct 2l,-Centre
college and Harvard battle before 81
600 spectators in the Stadium this aft
ernoon to determine the winner of the
odd game in the three-season inter
sectional series.
Mindful of the 6 to 0 defeat which
the Kentuckians, under Bob" Me-
MILAN, presented Harvard last year,
the Crimson to-day threw the full
strength Of it's first varsity II on the
field. Centre, in turn, offered a team
that included seven veterans of the 1921
fray, piloted by Herbert Covington as
McMillan's successor quarterback. Cap
tain "Red" Roberts. the versatile. was
slated to start the game at fullback
To-day's rubber contest marked
probably the last appearance of the
Colonels in the stadium for several
years. because Of a decision among the
presidents of Harvard, Yale and Prince
ton looking with disfavor on intersec-
tional contests. With this fact in
mind, the demand for tickets had been
unprecedented and indications were
that when the opening whistle blew
there would not be standing room in
the great concrete horseshoe.
II was an ideal day for football. The
sun shine brightly. but there was a
cool crisp breeze out Of the northwest
thata made it good overcost weather.

SAYS 18TH AMENDMENT
MAY LEAD TO REVOLT
Louis II. Coolidge Told Norwich Stu
dents Amendment Is a DAM
gerous Attack on Constitution.

Northfeld, Oct. 2l.---"Such attach
ments to the constitution Of the Unit
ed States as the eighteenth amend
ment will ultimately lead to revolu-
tion or a complete change in the form
Of government in this country" Louis
H. Coolidge Of Milton, Mass, former
assistant secretary of the treasury, de-
clared in an address before the cadet
corps of Norwich university here last
night on "The Constitution and the
Laws"
"The eighteenth amendment is the
most dangerous attack made on the
integrity of the constitution" he said.
mo constitution should have imbed-
ded in it any law affecting the habits
or customs of the people. Such law
breeds contempt among the people for
the entire constitution; consequently
such respect as they may have had for
other laws contained in the document
will be lowered or removed entirely.
THE constitution should be left
simple and elastic. 1t should be adapt
able to growth and changes in the peo-
pie. 1t should not contain hard and
fast rules. 1t should protect the lib
critics of the people against the ty-
ranny Of the majority, which now ex-
lists and is developing in the United
States. This tyranny of the major
ity is far more dangerous than that
Of one man, for one man can be held
for his acts, whereas 1t Is
to attach responsibility to
a large group of men.
Present amendments to the consti-
tuition are adding tremendous i'm
petus toward socialism, by eliminating
and endeayoring to
all activities. Concentra
lion and centralization of power at
parallel the endeavor of
England to place the colonies under a.
-ule Of a Parliament unacquainted
With the conditions in the newly set

ion arises under the present tendency

NO pRE-wAR PRICES.
During Next Decade, Says Harvard Re-
search Committee.

Boston, Oct. 2l,-The Harvard com
mittee on economic research has no
expectation of drop in prices to the
pre- war level during the next ten
years, Professor Charles j. Bullock,
chairman OF the committee, said IN an
address att he Harvard club last night
at the first session of national con-
ference Of subscribers 10 the Harvard
economic service. The Harvard COM
mittee. he added, could not accept the
conclusion that prices must return to
a pre-war normal because prices had
reverted 10 their former level after
previous periods OF currency imitation
In the early and middle 10th century.
"The committee cannot find" he said,
athat the governing conditions exist to-
day which brought about lower price
levels in the past.
"The old situation must first be
considered. Upon all the evidence we
have concluded that monetary stocks OF
gold will continue increase at the rate
of approximately Sl50,000,000 per
annum during the next eight years, and
this means larger annual increment
than the world has ever had except
during the few years prior TO 1918. Re-
fore the war commodity prices were in
ceasing at very substantial rate, with
an annual gold increment of 1892 .000,-
600; and three was general complaint
of the increasing cost of living. In
view of this fact 1t would seem that an
annual increment Of sl50,000 should be
ample TO prevent a decline of gold
prices during the present decade"
II the general trend ofcommodity |
prices should decline during this decade,
he said, this result would be due to the
financial policies pursued by the lead
ing commercial countries and not TO
shortage of the yellow metal.
