Enforcing Dry Law

The state police were vigorouS
IN prosecuting prohibition law
violators. In all 1,169 violators
OF various classes in the dry law were
arrested and sol stills were destroyed
In many cases the distillers managed
10 hide their stills. but the troopers
spilled th9i; products in raids. A
total Of 1896 quarts OF whisky, 107,-
371 gallons Of mash, 388 gallons Of
raisip jack, 2S5 gallons Of wine and
foreign substances, and 246 gallons Of
home brew we're destroyed. At Sc a
quart the liquor seized was worth
s104,376. Arrests were made in A
cases for murder, while .113 arrests
were for crimes against morals.
The efficiency of the state police in
maintaining a respect for law and or
der while two OF the greatest national
strikes in history conferred in this
state, is emphasized Colonel Ar.
nold's report draws attention to the
record OF his men who averted law
lessness during the titanic struggles,
and yet never ared a shot. The
troopers maintained a firm neutrality
throughout, he said, taking neither
side in the labor controversy, and
acting only as peace officers.
