IT TAKES NAVY

B0OTLEGGERS
STATE POLICE HAVE FAST BOAT
IN BOUNDARY WATERS TO
CATCH SMUGCLERS.

For temporary patrol work, until
the federal government shall institute
patrol of fast motor launches in the
boundary waters of the st. Clair and
Detroit Rivers, Lake st. Clair and
adjoining waters, the Michigan De.
partment of Public Safety has put into
commission a speed-boat which is said
to be faster than any of the craft used
by the whisky-smugglers and which
has already put fear into the hearts
of the rum-runners.
For the sum of $4,000 the state pur.
chased launch capable of making 35
miles an hour. That this was a good
price is evidenced by the fact that an
offer of $4,000 has been made for the
boat as soon as the Department OF
Public Safety finds that it can turn
this preventive work over to federal
officials.
Ever since war time prohibition
ended in Canada, the smuggling of
whisky and other Intoxicating bever.
ages across the narrow boundary
for gangs Of runners. With more than
a hundred miles of border in Michigan
which is within a short run of the
Canadian shores, it has been impos-
sible to intercept any large number Of
the cargoes at the place of unloading.
Therefore the plan to use swift boat
on the river was adopted.
Detroit Has Boat.
The city of Detroit has maintained
a patrol boat for some time but this
craft has a speed Of only is miles per
hour and the fast boats of the snug
glers could run away from her. There
fore the state police purchased much
faster vessel, one which could over
haul any smuggling launch on the
rivers.
District Inspector Charles p. Cam.
pau, stationed at Detroit, is in charge
of Michigan's prohibition navy. With
him as crew are Lieut.. VIM. Boet.
thcer, Inspector B. c. Post and Sergt.
l.. NJ. Chidester They are armed
with rifles and tear-gas bombs.
In purchasing the vessel it was de.
cided TO use it from Port Huron to be.
low Detroit, and especially in the mar.
row channels of the st. Clair Flats
and in the lower part Of the Detroit
River. The very fact that the SNUG.
glers cannot tell at what time, night
or day.. they will find themselves con.
fronted by this fast craft is deterrent
to their venturing Oh their operations.
The state anti-whisky-s smuggling
vessel is purely a speed-boat and Is
not adapted to pleasIre-cruising.

NO CASH BAIL
FOR SPEEDERS

Col. r. c. Vandercook, commission.
er OF the Michigan Department of
Public Safety, has announced that
the members of the state police who
are patrolling the principal highways
to check violations Of the highway
laws Will not take cash bail from any
citizens of Michigan who may he
guilty of violations of the motor
vehicles law
In all such cases the offenders will
be required to identify themselves,
the numbers of their drivers and au-
tomobile licenses will be taken and
they will be notified where to report
FOR trial. In case they do not appear
for trial, warrants will be taken out
for them, of course
The aim OF the state police, Col.
Vandercook states. is not to bring a
great number of complaints or to col
lect large sums of money in fines and
costs but to prevail upon the persons
who use the highways to drive safely
and with proper care for the rights OF
others. Such campaign of yeduca.
tion must necessarily be backed up
by prosecution of those who are reck-
less or obstinate.
Automobile accidents on the main
highways have been increasing. State
police rendered assistance after 80
such accidents in May.

BODY TO FIGHT CHILD LABOR
Permanent Organization Formed With
Samuel Gompers in Position of
Directing Officer.

A permanent organization to work
for absolute abolition of child labor
in the United States" was formed M
Washington by representatives of a
number of national associations called
into conference on the subject by Sam
uel Gompers, president of the Ameri-
lean Federation of Labor.
The meeting was arranged by Mr..
Gompers following the recent decision
of the United States Supreme court
holding that special excise taxes on
the product of minor labor were ins
valid.
Spokesman for the new organiZa-
tiOn, after a conference at the Amer.
lean Federation of Labor headQuar-
ters, appeared before the house Judi
ciary committee TO urge legislation
prohibiting or regulating employment
or children in mines, factories and
similar arduous occupations.
Representative Chandler, Republic
an, New York, said it was the opin-
ion of himself and other members of
the committee that the Supreme
courts ruling has made it impossible
to accomplish anything by legislative
regulation unless and until consti-
tutional amendment had been adopted
The organization formed to insti-
tute a campaign for such an amend
ment will be known as "the perma-
nent conference for the abolition of
child labor" Mr. GOmners accented
the post of permanent chairman.

Dissenting Opinion Asserting That
Scale Arranged For Will Not Pro-
vide Proper Living Wage Filed
by Minority Members.

Reimbursement of the wages of ap
prOXimately 100000 maintenance OF
way employees of the railways Of the
country, effective July l, in accordance
with alleged decreases in the cost OF
living and wages in similar outside
employment, since the decision of the
board last July, was provided FOR in
a decision by the United States Rail
road Labor board.
The decision is expected to reduce
present pay rolls of the railroadS
about $4S,000,000 per year, and to re-
duce the pay Of the majority of the
maintenance of way men five cents
per hour, but important classes of the
employees were given a small cut. I'm
der the majority head were included
track laborers and other classes, usU-
ally designated as common laborers."
The decision was signed by the three
railroad members of the board and the
three members representing the public
group. A dissenting opinion was filed
by the group members representing
the labor group.
The dissenting opinion cOntended
that the wage scale provided in the
decision was insufficient to sustain life
On the basis Of American standards.
The boards decision followed the
hearings held on the request of the
railroads for wage reductions and the
counter request Of several classes of
employees for increases in pay.
These hearings began in Chicago
March 6 and ended April %.
All except three or four of the large
railway systems of the country We're
affected by the hearing, which includ
ed all classes of employees except
those in train, yard and engine serv-
Ice who were then conducting negotia-
tions with the railroads which had
not terminated when the hearings be-
gan.
In announcing a separate decision
for maintenance of way employees in
advance of its decision to the other
classes, the board complied with q
request made by the United Brother
hood of Maintenance of Way EN-
ployees that its case be given prece-
dence and decided as speedily as pos
sible. The classes not embraced in
the hearings number from 80 to 35 per
cent Of the total of railway employees.

COMPUTING THE KISS.

Those who think the French romantic are
due for a shock from Prof Edouard Malespine. He
is conducting a scientific analysis of the kiss. That
sometimes delightful indoor sport wasn't relished
bit by American doughboys when they suffered
generals to osculate their cheeks in exchange
for trifle of metal and bit of ribbon BOT the
women-American, French, English Irish Esqui-
mau--the women like it.
No photographs published with the dis
patches concerning Professor Malespne it is hard
to say whether he has many subjects in his labora
tory But certainly he has compiled some important
looking statistics.
One of the things the professor wants TO deter
mine is the horse power of the average kiss Yes
he puts it just that way--the horse power. Most
folk though science has gone far enough in insisting
on the hygienic kiss. But horse power! As well
measure the current in the electric shock the first
kiss gives. compute the miles that every moon.
