red whisky. Many counterfeit labels

Another warrant then was sworr
out for the arrest of the alleged pro-
prietor of the establishment.
According to the police, this place
has been one of the most lucrative
sources of supply of liquor to retail

months. The liquor was sold for ap-
proximately $12 a quart, retail, 1t is
alleged, and much has found its way
into local bootleg channels

HELICOPTER WILL
 OUTD0 AIRPLANE
Such Is Claim of Prof. Klemin,
 Based on Landing Facility

New York, Dec. t.---Aa the air. plane has been developed to uses far surpassing those for which It's original inventors foresaw Its adapta- lion, so will the helicopter be devel- oped in the near future In ways quite unsuspected at the present time, Prof. Alexander Klemin of New York university asserted in an address prepared for delivery today before the aeronautical division of tho American Society Of Mechanical Engineers.
 Prof. KIemin prophesied that the helicopter will outdo the airplane. although It's future, ss a direct-lift type of aircraft lies not in competi- ton with the airplane, but In the ability to perform functions which the airplane cannot undertake. Through the helicopter, aircraft may be put to new and startling uses, Prof Klemin predicted.
 Enthusiastic supporters of the helicopter go 50 far as to see 1t landing on roofs, bringing rapid communication to the very heart of cities and helping to relieve traffic congestion." Prof. Klemin said.
 The helicopter Is not likely to rqual the airplane in speed or in carrying capacity. owing to the large airscrew diameters required, 1t Is not likely to be so compact or maneuverable. With motor dead, however. its hould be able 10 land in worse and more restricted terrain, and that Is an important point from the safety aspect"
