HELENA, May 28.-High waters

will protect the trout as much as the
closed season, which closes tomOr-
row, in the opinion of G.. A. 'Jak-

rains in the mountains during the
past few days have melted the snow
to such an extent that practically all
of the streams are swollen and totally
unfit for fishing.
Angling in the lakes and some OF
the streams, however, is in good con-
dition, according to Mr.. Jakways. He
cautions fishermen to be certain they
do not fish in some Of the streams
that are still closed to fishing.

Writing to ]. II. Larimore, director

mechanical engineer asks for help in
securing work in this country. He
and his wife will arrive early in Sep
TENDER.
He writes that the engineering trade
in England is very bad and many good
men are out of position. This man
has had experience in employing over
three thousand men and has been not
only responsible for the manufacture
but also for designing and producing
cars at profit. He has been receiv-
ing salary of between $4,000 and
$1,000 a year. He declares that be-
cause of the present condition of trade
in Great Britain it is impossible for a
man of his experience to get position
and he is coming to prohibition in the
United States.

EHRleH1 PUTS IT UP TO Dept
Dry Commissioner Urges Strict En-.
forcement of National Dry Laws

Police Commissioner Enright Of New
York City called upon the department
July Il to enforce strictly the Volstead
Get and the Eighteenth Amendment
Honestly and fearlessly without fear or
favor" He pointed out to the depart
ment that the repeal of the Mullan-Gage
set did not lessen the responsibility of
the police to enforce United States laws.
He declared that "the national prohibit
tion act is still in full force and effect
as a federal statute and is the law of the
land" He quoted at length from Gov
ernor Smiths statement at the time he
signed the repeal of the state prohibition
enforcement act.
The commissioners order was posted
in police headquarters and in every pre-
cincti station. At the same time the
commissioner criticised the United States
authorities for not stopping the flow of
contraband liquor over the Canadian
border and into the port of New York.
He declared that if the federal authori-
ties would do this the police department
of New York would be relieved from any
responsibility in respect to this unlawful
practice and they could give their entire
attention to more serious violations of
the law.

LIQUOR SMUGGLING FLEET
NUISANCE AT ASBURY PARK

A special correspondent to the New
York Herald writing under an Asbury
Park, N. J., dateline of July IS, says
that the bootlegging ships out in rum
row have beer. causing annoyance at
Asbury Park and neighboring beaches
because they throw overheard tons of
straw and reeds which are washed
ashore when the wind blows from the
northeast. AT great expense tie AS
bury authorities have managed to keep
the beach fairly clean, but other
beaches, have had difficulty in digging
themselves out of barnfulls of wet
grass and reeds. The straw and reeds
are used to pack the bottles Of booze,
protecting the glass from the rolling
motion of the ship. 7sa-ss
If this report be true it goes to show
that rum runners arc making them
selves a nuisance to the United States

Encouraged by Vote for Liquor
Control, Liquor Men Sought
Further Liberty
ADVERSE MAJORITY BIG
Drys, Asleep in Liquor Control
Fight, Come Back in Last
Scrap in Fine Form 9as

Following the recent vote in the prov
inee of Manitoba, Canada, on the pro-
posal for government control of liquor
sales, which carried by large majority,
the province last week took a vote on
a proposition permitting the sale of
light wines and beer with meals in
hotels This bill was sponsored by the
hotel men. The voters defeated it by a
big majority.
In connection with this incident it is
interesting to recall the experience of
British Columbia. The province adopted
prohibition in 1918. The friends of the
law promptly went to sleep on the job.
The bootleggers and the old liquor crowd
got busy Immediately and night and day
labored to discredit the law. In this
they were successful, with the result
that the province voted to adopt the
system which has lately been adopted
in Manitoba.
As result of the government control
policy, British Columbia has become the
rendezvous for the bootleggers of the
great northwest. Vancouver newspapers
report that of all the liquor shipped into
British Columbia, more goes into the
breweries is shortly to be launched by
government stores. Drinking clubs have
multiplied rapidly. The situation has
become so bad that recently the Van
couver hotels made an appeal to the gov.
eminent to submit the question for a
new plebiscite with the thought that the
province if given a chance will 60 back
to prohibition.

DECREASED POLICE ARRESTS RESULT FROM
new Y0Rk'S REPEAL OF ENFORCEMENT LAW
Now One-Seventh of Number Gage Law
Was in Effect; Cases Reported Usually Lack Evidence
Sufficient Convict

The abrupt falling off in police ar
rests for bootlegging since the repeal of
the MullanGage law was revealed by R.
Q. Merrick, federal enforcement chief of
New York City, in report.
The police have been turning over about
80 cases week to the federal authorities
for the last six weeks, whereas when the
state prohibition law was in effect they
averaged about 80 a day. In other
words, the police are about one-seventh
as active now in the pursuit of boot
leggers as they were before Governor
Smith signed the repeater.
These figures prove conclusively that
the purpose for which the repeater was
passed is being accomplished.
1t proves conclusively that it was
passed wholly in the interests of the
criminal bootleggers.
Not only are the cases turned over to
the federal authorities by the police
greatly reduced in number, but those
that are turned over are for the most
part defective to the extent that but few
are being held for trial by the United

Vets Fear Bill is Opening Wedge
Leading to Prohibition
in England

Lady Astor scored a decided victory
last week when her bill restraining the
sale of Intoxicating liquors to persons
under Is years of age passed its final
reading in the House of Commons by
vote of 257 to 10. The bill now goes
to the House of Lords.
The final debate in Commons was a
lively one. The vets were quick TO
see the moral effect of the passage of
the bill and frankly admitted that they
feared it was an opening wedge to pro-
hibition in England
One of the vets asked Lady Astor if
she favored prohibition and she re-
piled: prohibition has nothing to do
with me. 1t is for the people of the
country to decide. l have been called
an alien attempting to impose my will
on free people. I may be an alien
but I am not an alien to the needs and

New York Tribune that in nearly half
OF the cases submitted by the city de-
tectives they testify not to having
bought liquor themselves but to having
seen Others make purchases. From ex-
perience the United States attorneys Of
flee has learned that the chance of con-
viction on such evidence usually is too
slim to warrant prosecution AS a re-
suit, the only visible sign of police CO.
operation in enforcing the Volstead act
is that some 70 alleged bootleggers have
been held for the federal grand jury OH
the testimony of local detectives, and
even in these cases large part of the
burden has. fallen on the enforcement
agents who have been sent out to make
the actual arrest after the plain clothes
men have filled out their afidavits.

state enforcement officers to enforce the
laws as rigidly as when the Mullen Gage

AMERICAN ECONOMIC EXPERT STUDIES
CONDITIONS IN WHISKY. SOAKED EUROPE
Predicts That If America Holds Prohibition She Will
Outdistance All the Other Nations in the World in
Economic Competitions

Mr.. Charles J. Brand, a well.known
government expert, has recently returned
from Europe where he was studying eco
nomic conditions. Mr.. Brand says that
he has not been total abstainer. There.
fore he can not be considered prejudiced
in favor of the prohibition policy. He
predicts, however, that if America holds
to prohibition she will out-distance other
nations in the economic contests OF the
coming years.
He estimates that England, France
and Italy have a combined annual drink
bill running between four billion and
five billion dollars a year. His obser.
vatio,.5 all over Europe convince him
that alcohol is one of the most threaten.
ing dangers of the old world. In the
face of the present agitation in America
for the return of wines and beers, the
declaration of Mr.. Brand is peculiarly
striking, especially the following para
graph.
One constantly hears the state
ment, particularly in America, that
light wines and beers are not in.
toxicating. In fact, used to be.
lieve it myself to large extent.
One need not visit more than two
Partisan cafes to have the opposite
fully proven, and that even SO the
craving for stronger spirits is not
