WILL NOT INTERFERE
WITH PRIVATE LIQUOR
Consumption of Private Stocks on
Board Vessels Not to be Guarded
Says Shipping Board.
Az Associated Press Leased wire

by Associated Press Leased Wire)
Washington, D. C.-Confronted with
a new problem in the ship liquor ques-
ton by reports of the appearance Of
intoxicants in the dining saloons of
certain aforementioned vessels, the
shipping board has decided, for the
present at least, that it is without
authority to interfere with the con-
sumption of private liquor stocks by
passengers aboard such vessels.
Indications today were that the
board would seek a different ruling
on the question, probably from the de-
partment of justice. The question in
volved is whether the police powers
of the ships officers would warrant
their interference with liquor drinking
passengers so long as the liquor was
supplied and served entirely by the
passengers themselves and no members
of the ships crew was involved.
Although some experts in maritime
law indicated an opposite opinion,
spokesman for the board were empha-
tic in their view that such interfer-
ence was not within the authority of
the ship commander.

ARGUE POINTS OF
BUILDING LIMIT BILL
Madison and Milwaukee Hold Debate
Over Building Restriction Bill
Before Conference.
(By Associated Press Leased Wire)

by Associated Press Leased Wlrel
| Madison, Wis.-The merits and de-
merits of the building height limit
bill passed by the last legislature were
argued at public hearing before Gov
ernor Blaine today, attended mostly
by delegations from Milwaukee and
Madison. The governor minated
that he favored the bill.
Proponents of the measure which
would place limit of 1875 feet on
buildings in Milwaukee and 100 feet
on buildings in other cities argued that
such restriction is necessary in the
interest of public health, safety, pre-
venting excessive traffic congestion and
more equitible distribution of prop
erty values.
Madison residents expressed the view
that the appearance of the capitol
would be ruined if it were boxed in
with tall buildings. The supreme
court has held that law applying
only to Madison is unconstitutional, SO
1T becomes necessary to pass a state
wide law to protect the states prop
erty, they said.
The bill was strongly opposed by a
delegation of Milwaukee architects,
who held that the bill SIS ill-advised,
is too broad in its scope and attempts
to solve a problem that should be
regulated by local conditions" They
were Of the opinion that such law
would retard industrial expansion and
commercial deve1onn,ent
As for protecting the capitol, they
held that this was the problem of
the city of Madison to solve without
causing restrictions to be placed on
cities all over the state.

FURNISH PRETTY GIRLS
TO AID RUM RUNNERS
Florida Automobile Owners Have a
System All Their Own to
Defeat Prohibition.

/ ny Associated HfeSS Leased W1re1
Chicago, Ill.-Rum running along
| the Florida coast has developed into
such a FURNISHING industry that some
Florida automobile dealers sell cars
specially built to transport liquor,
furnish a negro chauffeur and guar
antee safe delivery anywhere, the
Chicago Daily News declared today in
the second of series of copyrighted
articles describing rum running along
the Atlantic seaboard
The writer who with a bootlegger
named Terry" investigated rum run
ming along the Florida coast, declared
he had been approached by such an
automobile dealer who believed the
newspaperman bootlegger and de-
scribed transportation methods, par
ticularly the negro driver.
"The secret is this" the article quot
ed the dealer as saying. eff you buy
car from me | will supply a negro
chauffeur who will drive you through
in style for $40 and his expenses.
Most of the northern rum runners who
try to take booze through from Florida
make the mistake of driving the car
themselves. They are hard lot, they
wear caps and sweaters, they don't
shave, some chew tobacco, they talk
with their RS spread all through
their conversation. A southern cop
can spot them as far as he can see
them. If you take one Of my sedans
and one Of my chauffers and simply
loll back all dressed up in the back
seat and let my chauffer do your lying
for you, positively guarantee that
you will get by. To make assurance
doubly sure, take pretty girl along
to loll with you in the back seat. In
fact, for trifing extra charge will
furnish the pretty girl"
On the trip to Florida the writer
declared that prohibition was the pre-
dominant theme of talk among passen-
gers. While passing through Alabama,
where even the sale of near beer is
prohibited the writer, he observed
that eight Of thirteen passengers in
the observation car had pocket TASKS.
A ninth, who was from Alabama, was
trying to beg a drink.

DR.. Thomas Dobbins De-
mands That Wife Return
Diamond Ring to Him.
HE'S INDIAN GIVER'
Trouble Develops between Mar
ried Pair Over Ring Hubby
Says Is His.

CDR. Dobbins got that ring indi-
rectly from an Indian Rajah and
wouldn't part with it permanently for
the world said Attorney L. E. Vau-
dreuil.
"But he gave it to his wife," said
Attorney Games E. Tully: "I'm afraid
that DR.. Dobbins is an Indian giver."
The passage between the attorneys
occurred in the municipal court Tues
day afternoon when they met in an
order to show cause served upon Mrs.
Dobbins by her husband in an effort
to secure the return to himself of a
diamond ring, valued at $500, held
by Mrs. Dobbins, which she says her
husband gave her as a gift and which
he says was simply a loan.
Had It Set for Her.
According to Mrs. Dobbins, her hus-
band was overseas as a surgeon for
the Red Cross for twenty eight months
and upon his return presented her
with the diamond, saying that it was
the only thing that he brought back
that was of any value and that he
wished her to have it.
"He took me down to Chicago to a
jewelry store and had me choose the
setting that | liked" said Mrs. Dob
bins, taking part in the conference Of
attorneys. "Then he left the diamond,
called for it when it had been prop
erly set, and presented it to me. The
diamond had been placed in fiat set
r.
Denies Ring Was Gift.
Vaudreuil insisted that DR.. Dobbins'
side of the matter was that he let his
wife wear the ring and have it lin
her keeping, but had not made a
gift of it.
He says that he was going to keep
the ring for a payment on car, then
later when he got car, suggested that
you keep it for reserve as first pay
ment on a house." said the DR.. Dob
bins attorney to the wife.
my husband handles the truth very
.carelessly,' she responded.
Mrs. Dobbins stated that her hus-
band within the last twenty-four hours
had taken from her dresser a pin which
had been a gift, of his to her, and that
on another occasion she found that
he had thrown her shoes and stocking
into the waste-basket.
Would Put Her in "Hoose-gow."
When the plaintiffs attorney sug-
gested that the matter be settled out
of court, Mrs. Dobbins declared that
she had been willing and had been so
disposed, but that when she had been
threatened with Jail incarceration her
patience broke.
"They threatened last Saturday that
if didn't produce the ring, Id spend
the night in JAIL" she, declared, "and
/ didn't have the ring 1t was in
Chicago, where it still is now"
"You didn't take that threat serious
ly," smiled one of the bystanders.
well, / didn't know. / certainly
didn't want to go into 'Hoose-gow.'
Then called my attorney"
1t was intimated that other action
might follow the ring episode, but
for the present the attorneys talked
among themselves the question of a
settlement of the ring case. Attorney
Tully in behalf of the wife, declared
that she would be satisfied with the
withdrawal of the order to show cause,
the renewed gift of the ring and a
cash settlement upon the estranged
wife, who removed her belongings last
Saturday to Chicago.
