QUANT|COCOCA|NE
/. AND LIQUOR FOUND
Red Cross Bag Hanging in
Bathhouse Contains Hid

POSSIBLY FROM BRAZIL
Probe at Barracks Following Party
Fatal to Two, Soon to Be
Reported.
POSSIBLY FROM BRAZIL

Discovery of a quantity of cocaine
and corn whisky in the marine bar
racks at Quantico during an investi-
cation into the deaths Sunday of two
enlisted men was reported yesterday
to Maj. Gen. John A. Lejeune, in COM
mand Of the Marine Corps, by Brig.
Gen. Smedley Butler, cou1mandant at
Quantico, who came to Washington
to confer personally with Marine
Corps officials concerning conditions
at the post.
Several capsules containing the CO.
caine were found hidden in a Red
at the post. Ownership of the bag is
not known. Effects of the marines.
bed clothing, portions Of the walls
and floors of the buildings and every
conceivable place which might serve
as a Kidding place for narcotics or
liquor were examined.
The thirty-six-hour probe resulted
from the deaths of Sergt. F. ]. Malloy
and Private James S. Harnett, both of
whom, it is believed. attended
marines Saturday night. Autop-
sizes performed on the bodies disclosed
that death resulted from wood alcohol
poisoning. considerable quantity of
corn liquor is said to have been con-
Sumed.
Five to Face COurt-Martial.
Five marines who are now under
treatment in the hospital at Quantico
for liquor poisoning, will face courts
martial when they recuperate. Gen.
Butler declared. The trials may lead
to the naming of persons responsible
for bringing the liquor and drug into
the federal reservation. Federal
agents already are conducting thor
ough investigation in Quantico and
vicinity with view to running down
band of bootleggers thought TO
have been doing a fiourishing busi-
ness with service men.
The capsules of cocaine were con-
tanned in a bottle. which bore label
printed in Portuguese. which officials
believe the narcotic was brought to
Quantico by a detachment Of marines
which returned last week from Rio
Janeiro. Brazil. where it had attended
the world exposition. This clue
is being examined with the eXpecta-
ton of placing blame.
Every man at the post has under
gone a physical examination since
Sundays tragedy. No additional
cases Of liquor poisoning were dis
covered:
Gen Butler will make a report in
writing to Gen. Lejeune.

BARE MINE VIOLATIONS
OF CHILD LABOR LAWS
Department Of Labor Investigators
Report Children Working and
Conditions Insanitary.

Studies made in typical mining
areas, both bituminous and anthra-
cite, show wholesale violation of the
child labor laws, maintenance of
squalid and insanitary conditions and
illiteracy of working children, the
children's bureau of the Department
of Labor announced last night in
radio message.
Many coal camps are literally in the
wild, the bureau said. Sometimes
the mountainsides and narrow val
leys do not offer much space for build
ings and the houses are crowded close
together, but with as little sanitation
as IL the nearest neighbor was mile
away.
Drainage empties into the valley
stream, and from this stream comes
drinking water. and. sometimes, ty-
phoid fever. The schools in the camps
are often of rural type-one room, one
teacher, offering only five or six ele-
mentary grades"
The report adds that in one anthra-
cite mining town out of every 1000
babies born 1877 died during the first
year of life. Half the boys, thirteen
to sixteen years of age. had left
school and gone to work in the min
ing industry, the report added. Even
the fourteen-year-a minimum of
the state Of Pennsylvania was being
violated and hundreds of boys were
being employed in the coal-mining in
dustry before they reached that age.

ton, in accord with time-honored ira
dition, 1t will be due to a realization
on his part that any other course

But his admirers are sure that he
would not shirk conflict once he
was aroused to understand that the

More than one member Of the
cabinet who senses the unpopularity
of the administration favors going
down battling in 1924 with flags
hyinEs rather than surrender of the
ship without a struggle. That kind

Eyes ON johnson.
Administration leaders are watch
ing the maneuvers of Hiram Johnson
with an eagle eye. The California
senator's hope of becoming the heir
to a Harding debacle--either volun-
tary or forced-is notorious. Organi-

feel the necessity of nursing her back
to health. perhaps over a period OF
years, may impel him to think his
duty. after March 4, 1925, is to her,
instead Of to a party that has not
surfeited him with devotion. An an
nouncsment along these lines may
become a piece of political history
some sunny day. ..,~ -: :
