U.S.PLANSDR|VE
ON VICE PERIL
TOMA|MED
Officials to Take Drastic
Measures Against Drug Men,
ace at Vet Hospitals.
BY HARRY WARD,
International News Service.

A nationwide campaign in which
the combined activities OF all Fed
eral secret agencies will be utilized
in driving bootleggers, dope peddlers
and other evil characters from the
vicinity of hospitals where world
war veterans are being treated Is
about to be inaugurated, it was
learned today.
Vice conditions around some of
these hospitals, it was said in Off
cial quarters, have become so ram
pant that drastic action to stamp
out such conditions must be taken
by the Government.
!, For several weeks Director Hines,
of the Veterans Bureau, has been
reviewing reports on. conditions
near many of the hospitals and in
two instances he has made per-
sonal study of the situation. He
has come to the conclusion that
prohibition enforcement officers, the
anti-narcotic squad and Department
of Justice agents can handle the
matter better than any special d.
vision of the bureau. In some
places it is alleged the laxity of
certain State officials has been OF
such a nature as to warrant a suS-
picion they are actually Indifferent.
The reports upon which Director
Hines has based his decision to ask
other Government agencies to clean
up conditions around the hospitals
have been from officers in charge
of hospitals, patients and relatives
of the disabled veterans. 1t has
been proven that in some of the
hospitals whiskey and dope" are
not only obtainable but will be de-
Iivered on telephone orders.
In places where the sale of liquor
is found arrests will be made and
the United States attorney will he
called upon to prosecute such vio-
lations to the limit.
Reports of an alarming nature
have reached the Veterans Bureau
relative to narcotic addiction and It
has been decided to conduct a drive
against dope at the same time pro-
hibition agents are campaigning
against bootleggers. Nearly a year
ago the Disabled American Veterans
organization urged that in the pro-
posed Federal law the penalty for
selling narcotics to disabled ex-
than in the case of other patrons
of dope sellers.
Men suffering from certain all
ments are considered particularly
easy prey for the dope" sellers
and for this reason the anti-narcotic
section will concentrate some Of it's
hest men on the campaign about to
open.

MAN Wakes To
F|ND|NTRUDER
At BEDSIDE
Fires Five Shots at Early
Morning Burglar, but
None Take Effect.

In the dim light of his room early
Sunday morning, Robert Mother
well, of AZ Kenyon street north
west, awakened to find a colored
man crouching at the foot of his
bed. The intrduer worked his way
slowly to the door of Mofherwell's
room and out into the hallway.
In a flash Motherwell leaped
from his bed, seized a pistol that
he kept at hand, and started after
him. The negro's startled cry when
he saw that he had been discovered,
awoke Motherwell's mother and Sis
ter. Other occupants of the apart
ment house also heard the cry.
It was the second time in few
months that the apartment had been
burglarized and Motherwel1 deter
mined that he would turn his rris-
oner over to the police. He ordered
the negro to put up his hands, but
instead of obeying the command
he ran for a window in the dining
room by which he had gained an
entrance.
Five shots followed him as fast as
Motherwell could fire.
AS he stood poised in the window
fifteen feet from the ground, the
negro's silhouette IVade an excellent
target and the bullets from Mother
wells gun spattered around his
figure. The negro leaped to the
ground and disappeared.
Occupants of the apartment. house
were aroused by the firing. They
gathered in excited little groups and
explored the outside Of the apart
ment house. Motherwell thought he
had hit the intruder but there were
no blood stains or marks to indicate
that his aim had been true.
Police received hurry calls from
two residents Of the apartment.
They brought searchIights and a
thorough hunt of the negihborhood
was made without result. Mother
well was able to give a fairly good
description of the burglar.
Mothersill said that nothing was
missing from his apartment.
