PLANNING TO IDENTIFY
BODY FOUND IN SWAMP
Florida Officials to Make Arrest,
Charging Skeleton Is That of
Murder Victim.
By the Associated Press.

By the Associated Press
ORLANDO, Fla, January City
and county authorities were early to-
day making final preparations for
Identifying the skeleton found in the
swamps near here a fortnight ago.
The police announced last night that
following the Identification, they ex-
pected to make an arrest on a charge
of murder.
Chief Of Police Edward vestal and
Sheriff Kare, in advancing the mur-
der theory, said thorough examina-
tion of the bones and remnants of
clothing found on the skeleton, which
they believed had lain in the swamps
for more than a year, had led to the
discovery that the man was murdered.
Up until last night the authorities
had asserted their belief that the
skeleton was that of an Army aviator,
and arrangements were bcinE randa
to search the vicinity for the remains
of a plane as soon as surface water
in the woods had disappeared. The
police say they first believed a search
was necessary because of a report
made by residents here three years
ago to the commandant at Carlstrom
Field, Arcadia, Fla, that an airplane
in flames had been seen over the
western part of this county.
The authorities refused to discuss
their foul play theory pending ar
rests.

.SPROUL ASSA|LS
DRY LAW LAXITY
Tells Legislators Advocates
Stern Penalties for Officers
Who Fail to Enforce 1t.
By the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press
HARRISBURG, Pa, January q
Gov. Sproul told the members of
the Pennsylvania Legislature today
that 1T is patent fact that the pro-
hibition enforcement laws, federal
and state, are not working we'll in
Pennsylvania"
The governor. who goes out of
office in two weeks and delivered his
| final message to the legislature in
person, said that some people are in
clined to blame this condition upon
the states own enforcement law, and
yet the fact remains that in other
states, which have the kind of laws
which these critics demand, the re-
suits are no better"
Cites Conditions Elsewhere.
I'm New York and New Jersey,
where the type OF laws which are
desired here have been enacted"
| Gov. Sproul said. "the disregard for
prohibition is certainly fully as much
In evidence as 1t is in Pennsylvania.
| Even In states which have had prohi-
bition for years, there has been much
| more Illicit trade in intoxicating
| liquors than before the passage of
| federal enforcement Here in Pennsyl-
vania our law has worked very well
| where local prosecuting officers are
| in sympathy with it. In all sections,
however, convictions have been most
| difficult to secure. and public senti-
ment seems strangely inert and in
| different"
This situation, he said, is most dis
! couraging and dangerous" and is
| particularly menacing in a free
land"
"BOotleSging Astounding"
"Bootlegging has become a business
of astounding proportions" the gov
ernor declared. and undoubtedly
much of the banditry and other crimes
which now are harassing the country
! have their genesis in the school of
| outlawry fostered by the illegal trade
of intoxicants. We are rearing a fine
brood of criminals which 1t will re-
quire stern measures to suppress"
| Education and patience may bring
a cure, he declared. The only way out
that is now in sight, he added. "is a
careful and conscientious enforcement
of the law by the authorities, under
severe penalties for disregard of duty
upon the part of officials and an
awakened public appreciation of the
peril by our people which will make
:lawbreRking disreputable. Until the
sentiment of the people earnestly sup
ports the dry laws, their enforcement
will be extremely difficult and their
general effect more harmful than
beneficial"

Charlie P. Peterson, cashier of the
First National Bank. returned last
Friday from Eagle. this state, where
he spent two weeks hunting deer He
was rewarded to the extent of the law

pretty hard and uncomfortable work

on horseback and then wade through
snow knee deep. The altitude at
Eagle is much higher than here and
winter had already set in, making it
hard for person to keep warm.
