ALCOHOL use
IN DRY FIGHT
US. Authorities Decide Upon
Drastic Step in Washing
ton Meeting
PERMITS ARE REVOKED
(By the Associated Pre..1


Washington, Jan. 17.-Drastic cur
tailment of dealings in denatured
and industrial alcohol has been de-
cided upon by federal prohibition
authorities in their next step to COM
bat the illicit liquor traffic.
Orders have been issued for the
revocation of scores of dealers per
mits, among these being one issued
to one of the largest alcohol pro-
ducing plants in the country.
Decision to withdraw the license
OF this plant and to refuse to re-
issue dozens for which rpplicati ons
were pending was reached at a con-
ference of prohibition officials at
tended by Acting COMMISSIONS r
Jones, Acting Director Yellowley of
New York and heads of the principle
bureaus which have headquarters
here.
1t is understood that reports sub
mitted by Mr.. Yellowley into the
sources of Christmas beverages had
much to do with the order.
Mr.. Yellowley is known to have
secured evidence which convinced
him that the great bully of this sup
ply was of domestic manufacture
with illegally diverted alcohol used
as a base. Much of the alcohol was
declared by the prohibition agents
to have been re-rectified from stocks
supposedly denatured in accordance
with government regulations.
Alcohol used in the bootleg trad.
is believed by prohibition officials to
come largely from stocks denatured
by the addition of quinine sufficient
to make the solution nauseatinp as
drink. 1t has been found that by
the use of a simple and easily pro-
cured re-agent the quinine can be
precipitated and the clarified alcohol
then syphoned off for any use the
owner desires.
Another denaturing formula be-
lieved to have been found by boot
heggers is that which produced indus
trial alcohol. Careful distillation in
the process of which the fempera.
ture is held at given degree is said
to enable the operator to draw off
drinking alcohol from the medicated
residue.

So PER Cent,
INCREASE
TO CONTINUE

Copy of letter has been received
by the Bismarck Water Supply Com
pany from their attorneys, relative
to the effect the last decision of the
state railroad commission has upon
the injunction granted by the United
States federal court at st. Paul
awarding temporary thirty-five
percent increase in water rates The
opinion of the attorney follows:
"The rates now in effect under the
injunction should continue to be
charged. The valuation made by the
commission is not final for thirty
days and might be changed on a
hearing on objections. In any event,
we do not believe that the injunc-
ton has become imperative. and un-
der any construction it will not be-
come imperative for thirty days
after the date of the order of the
commission"
This statement is made by the
water utility to clear up a misun-
derstanding in regard to the rates to
be charged until the matter is fin
ally Irrigated in the courts.>

Chasing Swans
No Bar to Making

swans in Central Park, New York,
may lead to an arrest for violating
city ordinance, but does not in

not be allowed to prevent the nat
uraliZation of an alien.
When one of the applicants for
citizenship was asked yesterday by
Chief Examiner o. T. Moore of the
naturalization bureau if he had
eyer been arrested, he. answered in
the affirmative. Further inquiry
disclosed that about twenty years
ago the applicant had been taken
into custody for chasing the swans
in the ponds of Central Park. A
litter of mirth spread through the
courtroom when Justice Bailey
declared the arrest should not be
taken into consideration and per-
mitted the applicant to become an
