B00TLEGGERS
HIRE MEN TO
SERVE TIME
u. S. District Attorney Plans
to Photograph Them to
Prevent Such. Action
STAYS PERMIT PLAN

Duluth, July 18.-Because the
government suspects that convicted
bootleggers are hiring substitutes
to serve their sentences in county
jails and prisons, the government
plans to photograph bootleggers to
prevent such substitution, Lafayette
French, Jr., United States district
attorney, announced today.
At present there is no practical
way to tell whether the man who
walks into the county Jail to which
John Doe, bootlegger, has been SEN
/ fenced, and who says, 81 am John
Doe. l have come to serve my
Time" really is Doe or a man hired
by Doe to sojOurn as the govern
ment's guest for the period of the
sentence, while Doe spends his time
in the profitable liquor vending pur-
suit to which he has grown accus-
toned, charging the pay of his sub
stitute presumably, to overhead, Mr..
French said.
| Stays Permit Substitutions =.
Many bootleggers. upon convic-
ton, get stay Of few days in
their sentences, presumably to wind
up their affairs, and it is the opin-
ion Of the government that this in
terval of week or so, some times
more, permits the substitution. FIRE.
quently court adjourns for the term
while the bootleggers under sem
tence are enjoying freedom under
bond, he said, and when the men
come to surrender they do not face
the prohibition agents, the govern
ment attorneys, nor the judges who
convicted them, but jailers and
sheriffs unfamiliar with their ply
sognomy.
The opportunity for substitution
of these prisoners is easily appar-
ent, Mr.. French said, and it is the
governments belief that it is going
| on at present and has been for some
time, though he said it is difficult
| to prove.
Photos to Ban Substitutions
The use of photographs was de-
cided upon, and the pictures may be
used in much the same manner upon
commitment papers in the future as
they are upon passports and other
similar papers. This method will
make it certain that the penalties
handed out by federal judges will be
paid by the men for whom they ARE
intended and not by second parties
| In addition to preventing substi-
tuition of prisoners, Mr.. French said
the photographs also could serve in
! identifying some of the men who
arrested for the second or third
times, use fictitious names in order
to avoid more serious Jail sentence
or possible Imprisonment at Leaven-
worth.
"This work should be in charge
+! of prohibition forces" Mr.. French
| said. "and such an arrangement
would have been made some time
ago when the reports of the oper
atoms Of the bootleggers frs
reached us, but for the fact tina
there were no funds available. How
ever, some such an arrangement is
necessary to prevent the liquor law
violators from escaping serving
their time in Jail"
, Mr.. French said the matter Of
substitution by the bootleggers ir
jails has been placed before S. B
! Qvale, state prohibitions director
along with information concerning
alleged laxness of certain jailers.

=
Of Modern
Business
Let us look at three-ring circus and mar
vel Here are literally hundreds of people,
hundreds of animals, and more paraphernaiia
than you find in sma1l-sZed factory-all on
the move.
Here is complete city, set up every day in
a strange place-givlng a parade and two
performances - taken down, packed away,
loaded on train, moved to another city and
set up again.
Any business can learn something about
efficiency from circus.
Take the "24-hour man. as one example,
The "24-hour man" goes one day AHEAD of
the circus. He contracts for all the food for
this army of performers. He arranges to
have local bakery deliver bread; he buys
vegetables and meat he buys tons of hay for
the horses and elephants.
The "24-hour man sees the city officials.
He arranges for license he arr&nges for
water. piped to "the lot;" sometimes he ar
ranges for electricity, he sees that "the lot"
itself is clear and ready for occupancy the
next day.
Then comes the circus. All it has to do is
go to "the lot" set up, give it's parade and it's
two performances.
If it were not for the "24 hour man" the
circus itself would stand fair chance OF vast
ing it's time and spending it's energy running
down and taking care of the details which one
man handled so efficiently the day before.
Does Your Business Need "a Hour Man?
The "24-hour man" of business is printing
Printing takes care of thousand details .,.r
which would otherwise fall upon salesman.
Printing thus helps your statesmen -wfreti1-
er they are in retail store or travelling 'on
the road" It enables your statesmen to per-
form as they are intended to perforrn-by
bringing IN sales =.
Without printing, any salesman must waste
time IN explaining your policy-buildlng con-
fidence - explaining the merits of merchan-
dise-remeving obstacles to buying, from the
purchaser s mind.
With printing, you can do these things for
your salesman
That's just one advantage Of printing Let
us tell you more Of them.
