LETTER BY ENRIGHT
STIRS UP POLICE
Says Many Are Negligent or
C0rruptly Interested in
Rum Traffic.

Police Comm issioner Enright said yes
in particular when he warned all police
inspectors and captains that he had rea-
son to believe members OF the depart
ment ot high and low degree are ''in
cahoots" with bootIeggers and are help
ing to rob and poison the drinking
public" .
"There is no specific charge against
anyone" the Commissioner said during
Conference at the waldorf Hotel. II
am not wholly satisfied with conditions
in the department. That's ALL We hear
a lot OF rumors."
He was informed that the warning
which was sent out last Friday In the
form OF letter to Chief Inspector
Lahey. has caused certain police Off
cials to worry about their jobs.
1T does no harm to stir them up occa-
sionally." Mr.. Enright said. "A man
works better sometimes IL he worries
little"
There isn't any question but that
Commissioner Enright means business"
said Ralph A. Day, Federal Prohibition
Director for New York State "His
letter was very strong and very coura-
geous."
The letter was written after confer
ences between the police and the Fed
eral enforcement authorities held last
week.
Commissioners Enright is cooperating
with us in every way" Mr.. Day con-
tinued. I'VE are going to enforce the
law and make New York dry. With the
police working in absolute harmony with
US 1t will be possible in the future to
institute injunction proceedings against
many more places and individuals than
has been the case in the past"
Precinct commanders We're wondering
exactly what the Commissioner meant
when he said hereafter they will be held
to account when special police liquor
squads or Federal agents raid places in
their precincts over their heads.
The Commissioners letter follows:
''The number of places suspected of
selling liquor in this city has been on
the increase during the past few months.
In many former liquor saloons It Is
being sold more or less openly. and 1t
is evident that the district commanders
are not performing their duty.
Hereafter when arrests are made by
the Federal authorities or by special
squads of this department. the COM
manding officer of the district and the
commanding officer OF the precinct will
be held to strict accountability, and they
will be required to show cause why
charges should not be preferred against
them for neglect of duty and any other
culpability of which they may be rea-
sonabiy charged.
Failure on the part of any of the
responsible officers OF this department
to diligently and efficiently enforce the
State Prohibition Law and to prevent
the illicit trade. traffic in or transporta
tion of liquor in violation of law will
result in drastic disciplinary measures.
1.-THE drinking public are being robbed
and poisoned by reason of this Illicit
trade There are considerable grounds
for believing that members of this de-
partment Of high and low degree are
palpably negligent or corruptly inter-
ested in this vicious and unlawful busi-
neNe.

SAYS LIQUOR RINGS
BACK PHARMACY PUPILS
College Supervisor Tells of
Ruse That Failed.

Persistent efforts to gain for certain
students" entrance to the Brooklyn Col
lege OF Pharmacy has aroused members
of the board of trustees to the suspicion
that liquor or drug interests are at work
Thomas J. France of 42 Hart street,
chairman Of the college committee on
supervision. stated yesterday that the
college stopped matriculating students
last March. Since that time.. he said
money has been offered to get students
in. In one instance student who had
natriculated was offered 800 to allow
another to take his place.
The plan. according to Mr.. France. is
to finance a student until he becomes a
licensed State pharmacist. then he is
established in business and used as a
cloak for the Illicit liquor or drugs
traffic.

Edward Hess Confesses
Many Crimes.
KEPT POLICE ON JUMP

The police trapped and captured the
they had to bang the senses out of him
with revolver butt first. so vigorously
did he fight against hard luck and a
mistake in Judgment. This eighteen
year-old-boy. Edward Hess, now held
in bail of 5000 for burglary, has been
robbing candy stores for many weeks,
emptying their cash registers with pain
full regularity and all to the complete
bafflement of the police.
Early yesterday morning two detec-
tives. repassing John Andresen's con-
fectionery at s02 Columbus avenue,
noticed that an electric light which
had been burning over Andresen's safe
when they first looked in was dark.
They slipped into a doorway and lis
tened hard, perceivinS presently that
the candy store was making noises that
no candy store should produce after
hours. SO they got to the rear~of the
store through neighboring yard. saw
that the cellar door had been broken
open, located short ladder leading
to a trap door in the candy store floor
and then ascended swiftly, revolvers
ready for business.
In the shodaws of the counte: some
body was working at something. and
Detectives CHASER and Morrison shouted
to that somebody to reach for the CELL
ing Instead the dim figure plunged
at them, striking savagely, and for
five minutes there was reel fight
I'm which Glasser's clothes were torn
to rags and both his face and Morri-
sons considerably altered for the time
being. In the end, though the butt
of Glasser's revolver landed hard on
the fighting burglars head and they
carried him down the short ladder. out
of the cellar onto the sidewalk and
called the wagon.
1t was the Candy Kid'-Hess. He
admitted his identity and said tnat he
had robbed at least twenty candy stores
in the last few weeks. Candy stores
were especially easy. he said. after sur
geons at the Knickerbocker Hospital
had brought him to consciousness and
patched up his broken head SO that he
was fit to go to court.

And in part the indictment is valid AS
individual and group insanity. But as an
analysis and a condemnation of modern
American society en- ntdsse Mr.. Hecht's
snariing criticism is quite inadequate. 1t
does not cover the case, and the trouble
is that he pretends, and asks us to believe
that it is all comprehending. Thus, with
much incidental. episode truth scattered
through it the book as an entirety is es-
sentially false.
Like many other brilliant young writer's
of the day Mr.. Hecht seems to see things
in but two dimensions, whereas the ex-
istence of a third should be always borne
in mind. And they are sometimes passion
ate in their denial of the possibility of a
fourth dimension. though it is precisely
that awareness of a something beyond the
three familiar dimensions that makes the
true poet. 1t results that the perspective
of the book is vitally defective. There is
obviously, an abundance of prostitution
and doubtless will continue to be- but il
by no means follows that each and every
woman has the soul of a prostitute: there
is not true that every man is possessed
of sexual devil all the time or that his
restraints and inhibitions are wholly due
to cowardice and the fear of being found
out. So, too. the crowd, the mob, humanity
in bulk. is often brutally stupid vicious
and greatly afraid but not all of it's group
ideals are base or 'idiotic"

Big Still Destroyed
On Island in Pond

ALBANY, Ca, Nov. 16.-On an
island in the center of ChiIder's pond,
in Baker county. federal prohibition
enforcement officers recently found.
after Wading half mile in water
above their hips, one of the largest
moOnshine stills captured in this
part of the state in many months. 1t
is said this still had been a source
of supply for the thirsty in Balm
bridge and Camilla, and had been
turning out a big supply Of liquor.
There was evidence Of this fact in
the 1000 gallons of mash found at
the still, as we'll as 25 gallons of
liquor which had dripped from the
worm.
While the officers We're wading to
the still from one side, the operators
of the still were escaping in boats
from the other side. The still was
$50 large that it was impossible to
take it's parts to shore in any of the
bateaus which the operators left be-
hind in their flight, and so it was
reduced to junk and left on the
scene.
The raid was made by J. J. Gordy,
federal prohibition off Ger; G. E. Hib-
bard, United States deputy marshal,
and Captain Garnett w. Sage, for
mer prohibition off GER, who was act
ing as a special officer.

Criticism of Legion
Due to False Rumor,
Commander Declares

INDTANAPOLIS, Ind, Nov. 10
Alvin NJ. Owsley, national command
er of the American Legion. today ex-
pressed the belief that unfounded ru.
mors led to the charges that mob
rule" prevailed at the legion conven-
ton in New Orleans, made by DR..
Edmund eros, European commander
of the legion, in a statement at Paris.
Owsley would not comment on
the assertion of DR.. Gros, that the
legion is dying and that many are
using it for political ends"
1T noticed in the quotation pre-
scented there is no statement that MIR.
eros saw the things mentioned"
OwsIey said. I'm my experience
and it was the experience of all the
army, the gathering of any large
body of men always produced ru-
mors.
81 suppose such rumors have come
out of the New ORLEANS convention.
""The mayor invited the legion to
choose New Orleans as it's permanent
convention city. The convention in
New Orleans was a business meeting
and much constructive work was
done"

Curran and Denny
Nominations to 10
To the Senate Again
Atlanta Journal News Bureau,
40S Evans Building.
nv THEnHDRE 'EksLER


WASHINGTON, Nov. 16,-As soon
as the senate convenes, President
Harding is expected to send in the
nominations of Jack F. Curran as
postmaster at Savannah and George
v. Denney as collector Of the port
Of Savannah.
These nominations were rejected
by the senate last session because Of
the personal opposition of Senator
Thomas E. Watson, now dead. Sena-
tor Watson told the senate the APP
pointees were personally ObnOX-
ious" to him, and under the prac-
tees of the senate when senator
makes such a statement nomlna-
ton is rejected.
Mr.. Denney has been serving as
acting collector at Savannah for sew
eral weeks, and it is understood that
his appointment will be made regu-
lar as soon as the senate conVenes.
Senators Harris and George may
vote against the two men, but it IS
reported that they will not make
personal fights against them and
confirmation by the senate is eN-
pected.
The Republican state organization
of Georgia desires to have both Mr..
Curran and Mr.. Denney reappoint-
ed, and the president doubtless will
accede to it's recommendations.
J. Louis Phillips, state Republican
chairman for Georgia, reached
Washington today and will remain
here for two or three days. Mr.. Phil
Inns wOuld not he quoted REGARDING
Georgia patronage matters, but it is
thought that while here he will pre-
sent recommendations of the Geor-
gia Republican committee in several
pending patronage matters.

WORLD DRYNESS BY
1910 IS PREDICTED
BY v. {. T. j. HEAD

PHILADELPHIA, Nov. 16.-"The
world will be virtually dry by 1884,
and bone-dry by 1940," Miss Anna A.
Gordon, newly elected president OF
the Worlds Women's Christian Tenn
perance union, predicted today.
1--WE are rapidly steering towards
world temperance and within eight
wears the w. C. T. y. will annihilate
liquor traffic from the face of the
earth.
"Two-thirds of the nations OF the
world are now seriously considering
prohibition and several will vote for
dry legislation before 1924"
In outlining the program for dry
ing up the world, Miss Gordon said
the schedule would be as follows:
Uruguay, 1924; Argentina, 1924;
Chile. 1927; Austria, 1925; Denmark,
1925; Germany, 1929; Great Britain,
1928; France, 1888; Japan, 1886; Bra
zil, 1929; Africa, 1926; Mexico, 1882;
Italy, 1888; Spain, 1889; China, 1889;
Cuba, 1910.
First, prohibition will come in
these countries by enactment of laws
prohibiting strong spirit drinks, then
the fight is won for rigid temperance
laws which will follow" Miss Gordon
said.

CHICAGO, Nov. 17.-There was a little
more mixed feeling today in regard to
wheat, but the preponderance was still in
favor of the Lull side. Strong interests ap-
peared ready to give the market support
on all of the soft spots, but there was
pressure the market on every rally,
and the selling of December was conspicu-
Gus. The strength in Liverpool market to-
day in face of the easier close yesterday
was reassuring to local bulls, and they were
not disposed to market their wheat. Also
the manner i'll which the market absorbed
the offerings on the bulges delighted friends
of the market. Western markets told of
the big milling demand for wheat. In the
local market. premiums We're UNCHANGED.
Advices from Winnipeg told of exporters try
ing to cancel vessel room because of the
lack of demand, but cash premiums there
were firm. Weather in the west and south
