U. S. COMMISSIONER HAYNES RE-
PORTS STEADY IMPROVEMENT In
ENFORCEMENT CONDITIONS
Jail Sentences and Injunctions Eff
fective Weapons in Fight Against
Liquor Law Breakers


every day, and this Improvement in curb
ing the outlawed liquor traffic is due to
better cooperation between federal and To-
cal authorities imposition of Jail sentences
instead of fines for violators, more general
and steps taken toward stopping leaks of
liquor from bonded warehouses to the
illicit market, according to resume OF
prohibition enforcement by the federal
government during the present admins
tration at Washington, received today by
Major Percy Owen, Federal Prohibition
Director for this state.
The report covers the period from June
Il, 1921, to September II, 1924. 1t shows
that the mail sources for obtaining genu
inc liquor in this country have been
largely cut off. This has caused bootleg
gers to turn to smuggling, but with the
Coast Guard rapidly getting this situation
in control the prospect for obtaining liq-
uor from overseas is growing DINNER
daily.
r. A. Haynes, Federal Prohibition
Commissioner, said that the more general
realization that over 90 per cent so-called
bootleg liquor being sold is poisonous,
was also contributing factor in bringing
about victory of law and order over the
outlawed liquor traficers.
Jail sentences" said Mr.. Haynes, "are
proving the real deterrent to law break
ing. The violator may pay fine and
continue business i'll different locality
under different name, until again appre-
hended. But when he is put i'll Jail his
activities are at an end his income stops,
and he has an opportunity to reflect upon
the Importance of UNFOLDING the Consti-
tuition" Commissioner Haynes continued:
Cooperation between federal and state
authorities is improving. All forces for
upholding law and order should cooper
ate. More than $4,000 arrests have been
made by the federal authorities during the
last three years. During the same period
violators have been sentenced in federal
courts to serve an aggregate of nearly
1000 years.
more than 100000 stills and parts of
stills and about 100000 gallons of dis
titled spirits, malt liquors, wine, ETC.. have
been seized during the last three years.
total of ,077 automobiles and 444 boats
and launches have been captured.
During this period, more than $4,000
criminal cases have been taken to federal
courts. OF this number, over 10000 have
been terminated, resulting in more than
$4,000 convictions.
Thousands of other cases have been
turned into local courts, of which there is
no complete record Fines of nearly
$18,000000 have been imposed, over $12,-
100000 of which has actually been col
lected and turned into the United States
Treasury. Last year alone, the fines, for
FIXTURES, ETC., imposed totaled over $7,000,-
600, of which more than $5000,000 has al :
ready been collected. In addition, about
100000 was paid by brewers during the
year in compromise of civil liabilities. Tax
penalty figures are not yet compiled, but
