MODERN RIP VAN WINKLE
HAS RUDE AWAKENING

Prohibition enforcement officers
have dug up an old man down in
West Virginia who should be ex-
hibited by vets as living example OF
their claim that Prohibition was put
across when nobody knew it. This
remarkable specimen is venerable
resident OF the Smoke Hill District
in that state. He was recently
arrested on charge of making moon
shine. When taken into custody he
declared to the officers: II have
been making whisky for nigh on
forty years and this is the first time
! knew there was any law agin it,"
And ne was truly surprised that he
was a violator of law.
AS the leader of the state troop re-
marked, it looks as if there was the
beginning OF all educational campaign
in the Smoke Hill district.

LIQUOR LADEN TUG COMES
TO GRIEF AT BROOKLYN

Federal prohibition agents on June
3 seized the ocean-going tug Ripple
in the harbor off Brooklyn. arrested
II members of its crew and fred 80
pistol shots at nearly score of
launches that had gathered to take
off the cargo of liquor. AS the agents
had no craft the launches escaped.
The tug is said to have waited three
days for an opportunity to slip into
the harbor which it did under pro-
lection of fog. The launches soon
appeared acting as convoy. There
was a leak in the plans somewhere,
however, and seven agents disguised
as longshoremen searched the water
front, finally locating the tug near the
Erie basin. The agents said that they
saw cases of liquor wrapped in burlap
transferred from the tug to lighter.
At signal the agents who mean
while had been re-enforccd by a de-
tail OF police, rushed for the tug. The
lookout shouted a warning and the
fleet OF motorboats seurried in all
directions while the agents emptied
their pistols at them.
The agents had a hand-to-hand
struggle before the crew was arrested.

FROM FAULTY PREMISES
COME FAULTY CONCLUSIONS
Battler Holds Prob. Cause Hard
Times-Hence Urges Fight
On Prohibition
WEARS OLD BEER BADGE
President Owens Takes and De-
tends Purely Selfish View
in Business

The stockholders of the Owens Bot
Ting Company of Toledo, Ohio, re-
Gently held meeting at which Mr..
Owens, the head of this big bottle
making corporation, offered resolu-
ton favoring the modification of the
Prohibition laws so as to permit the
manufacture and sale OF wine and
beer. Mr.. Owens credited decrease
in the monthly payroll to Prohibition
taking no account of the fact that
he was reporting for a period of gen
eral business depression. Like other
beer and wine advocates Mr.. Owens
pronounced against the return of the
saloon. The dominating reason for
Mr.. Owens desire to see the brewery
reopened however, is revealed in this
statement by him:
at is our business to look at
the matter selhshly. The most
commendable thing in an officer
of the glass container industry
with large number of stock
holders, is his very selfish interest
in the company's behalf"
Here is his argument in a nutshell.
The dollar mark is on it. He does not
want wine and beer brought back
fundamentally for the good of the
people but for the dividends it will
bring the stockholders of his industry.
In this he is on par with the brewers
themselves. They want the Prohibi-
ton law annulled because of the prof
its that will accrue to them from the
manufacture and sale of their pro-
duct The fact is, all of the demand
for the restoration of beer and wine
originates with the fellows who desire
to make money at the expense of the
public good.

petitioner AYERS that Inches has d.
rected his policemen that they may
spend money to buy liquor for use

reimbursed. He also insists that this
is jeopardizing private stocks that
thoughtful citizens secured before the

BISHOP BURLEsON FOR ENFORCEMENT
North Dakotan in Diocesan Address
Points out Clearly Duty of Church.
man.

Bishop Hugh L. Burleson in his an
nual address at the opening of the
Conference of the Episcopal Church
in Mitchell, S. Oak, May 10 made a
strong appeal for the observance of
the Prohibition law The Bishop
said:
II must reiterate in some measure
that which l have said in former ad-
dresses concerning the duty of those
who call themselves disciples of
Christ to observe and uphold the law
of the state. am continually dis
tressed by the spirit of lawlessness
which appears in unexpected places.
The attitude OF many of our educated
and professedly Christian people to-
wards the 18th Amendment is, | fear,
indicative of distortion of mind and
a wilfulness OF act which is from every
point of view reprehensible.
eff we are striving to be no more
than loyal citizens of the Republic, we
must decree for ourselves and demand
from others a careful regard for the
observance of law, and particularly
are we bound to uphold the Constitu-
ton OF our country.
81 am not now concerned to debate
the wise dom or unwisdom of the en-
actment OF the 18th Amendment,
though I will say in passing I am en-
tirely convinced that its general re-
suits are salutary.
"A fippant and careless attitude to-
ward the law is not venial thing,
but a national misfortune, which may
easily develop into national catas-
trophe,"
