BIG MOVEMENT OF LIQUOR

Not since prohibition became fact
mas there been such movement Of
liquors rs the ono that will be ordered
by prohibition authorities within q
few days. The primary object, Mr.. Day
explained, is to get the liquors into
tho hands Of persons who can be hello
legally responsible for any leaks that
develop. Basically, however, the plah
is one in-whiclr the authorities hone to
discover just how much water is in
New York's whisky stock. That it Is
we'll flooded Mr.. Day and other ell
forcement officers feel satisfied and
their belief led to the WASHINGTON con
ference. Those present aside from Mr..
Day were Roy A. Haines, Prohibition
commissioner, and Frank Bowers, Col
lector of Customs for the Southern Dis
trict Of New York.
There are 10000 barrels Of liquor,
valued at $1,000 barrel, or a total Of
$d5,0O0,000, and $4,000 cases Of bottled

ILLITERATE NOT IGNORANT
They Simply Need to Learn That They
May Teach, Says Winship-


Chicago, Feb. 24.-It is an outrage
for any one to think of the illiterates
OF the county as ignorant, DIR. A. E.
Winship of Boston. told delegates from
fourteen states attending the Hitter
acy conference of middle-west and
northern states meeting here today.
Every illiterate from the mountains
of Kentucky and Tennessee and the
Carolinas was infinitely better skilled
to sho9t and dodge shots in the world
war than United States senators and
university presidents" he said.
Every one of them was worth more
to the army than all their critics when
it came to handling firearms or fac
ing firearms.
THE keynote was struck when it
was said that they could not write
their families and, if they could, their
families could not read what they
wrote. In the mountain on the east
of Kentucky and Tennessee apd on the
west of the Carolinas there have been
as good native brains as in Wall street,
Harvard, Yale and Princeton.
The mountains have been full Of
phia and Chicago, New York. and
San Francisco have been as illiterate
to the brain messages of mountain
GERS as they are to the Sunday school
syndicate lessons of VIM. Jennings
Bryan. The outside world needs to
have these native illiterate adults learn
so that they can teach the outside
world some of their wisdom"

stated today. The ensemble chorus

will be the emergency relief for the
needy poor or the city. Father
Grant wishes to state that st. Peters

personal letter heads OF the Rev. DR..
Grant which he had when stationed
at the Pro-Cathedral before his en-
trance into the army were used by
his stenographers in sending out let

got TO cross out the word Cathedral

OF misunderstanding. No church Is
