The way OF the violator grows
more difficult. Contrary TO popular
belief there is every indication that the
day OF the get-rich-quick bootlegger is
almost thing of the past. We need
now. not only concerted efforts OF
those charged with enforcement of the
law but of those whose duty it is to
obey the law.
Great armies OF bootleggers, rivers
OF hootch and overwhelming lawless-
ness have been pictured to terrify
timid, uniformed or unthinking peo-
pie. With increasingly successful en-
forcement speaking Tor itself and with
such new voices as the citizenship con-
ference and such organizations as the
Anti Saloon League and kindred socie-
ties, the churches and affiliated bodies
all cooperating, the appeal to all good
citizens to look facts in the face and
come to the support OF the Constitu-

COOK COUNTY DRY DRIVE
HITS CHICAGO HEIGHTS

Chicago Heights, located twenty
six miles south of Chicago, has long
been one of the most lawless spots III
Cook county. Saloons fourished there
with apparently little interference from
local officials. Bad conditions were
made worse when Mayor Devcr drove
liquor law breakers out OF Chicago.
Chicago Heights then became one OF
the chief strongholds of the outlawed
booze traffic in the northern part OF
Illinois. On January IA conditions
began to change. AS a part Of the
campaign to clean up Cook county,
initiated by the Anti Saloon League,
number OF weeks ago agents from
the Office of Federal Prohibition Di-
rector Percy Owen raided eighteen
saloons in Chicago Heights. In every
one sufficient evidence was found for
successful prosecution of the law
breakers. This raid was one OF the
most successful that has been made
for many months in the Chicago dis
trict. But the agents were not con-
tented with the results achieved dur
ing the first raid. On the following
Saturday twenty more officials from
the prohibition headquarters went
back to Chicago Heights to raid six
more places suspected OF violating the
law. This made total OF two dozen
lawless saloons proceeded against by
the federal government. Still further
raids'are promised until this nanufac-
turing suburb to the south OF Chicago
is made to respect the law and the
Constitution.
In other parts OF the county there
have been scattered raids during the
past two weeks. On January 20 Shcr-
I if Peter NJ. Hoffman with a squad OF
twenty men visited Niles Center. Five
roadhouses were found to be selling
moonshinc, Their liquor stocks were
contiscated. their proprietors arrested
and locks put on the front doors
