LONG ISLAND LIQUOR
LEAK CAUSES WORRY
Enforcement Chief Says Rum Is
Pouring Into New

By the Associa ted Press.

By the Associated Press.
NEW YORK, November 22.-
Through an opening forced by the
rum runners, liquor Is said to be
flowing in such large quantities that
the situation has just been called to
the attention of the authorities in
Washington by r. Q. Merrick, pro-
hihition enforcement chief for the
State Of New York and northern New
Jersey.
Mr.. Merrick's report contained no
recommendation, but he says he
hopes that the fact set forth would
be sufficient to bring about some
result. The exact place of the leak
has not been determined. There is
a big leak somewhere near Montauk
Point" said Mr.. Merrick today, and
the amount of liquor coming in
through Long Island is increasing so
rapidly that conditions began to
look like they did last Winter.

mer regime.
But the relapse of, the country into
Its former condition was not unex-
pected What has crea.ed concern
is the extravagant claims IuL forward
especially in regard to the restora-
tion of the Sudan to Egypt. No Brit
ish government could yield In this
vital matter. Egypt has historic claim
to the Sudan. Its attempt TO rule that
country Is one OF the most ghastly
stories on record.
The English rule has brought Sc
curity and prosperity to the country
and the Sudanese people would not
tolerate a return to the Egyptians for
whom they have the utmost hatred
and contempt, The Sudan. in the last
generation, has become settled and ex-
traordinarily successful and Mahidism
is practically extinct. Whatever re-
ligious fanaticism remains does not
turn to Egypt for support and the
whole country would resist being
'hsan ded over to the rule which it
loathes.
Claim Inpracticable.
Zaghloul Pasha knows this but the
Nationalist movement, intoxicated by
the withdrawal of the British from
Egypt. has committed him to a claim
in regard TO the Sudan which is
neither just or practicable.
The murder OF the Sirdar brings the
matter to a crisis and the government
may be compelled to take drastic steps
to protect the security Of its admins
tration in the Sudan. Egypt's right TO
misgovern itself has been conceded.
but Egypt's right to misgovern its
neighbor will not be conceded. And if
Egypt cannot control It's assassins
they will be controlled in other ways.
The danger is that the crime in
Cairo will arouse such feeling that
the government will be tempted to

Loss Demands Action.

whatever the basis of calcula ton,
II is evident" continues the commit
tee, that the economic loss due 70
street and highway traffic accidents
has become SO great as to warrant
large expenditures toward their pre-
vention."
In its efforts to secure all available
information as TO traffic accidents
the committee sent out questionnaires
to the State Highway Commission of
each State; to the Motor Vehicle Ad
ministrator of each State, where such
exist; TO the chiefs of police Of 2S7
cities having $4,000 population or
over, to 55 local safety councils, to
all automobile clubs ir cities of 5000
or over, and to all local Chambers OF
Commerce affiliated with the Cham
Der of Commerce OF the United
States.
s Highway officials and motor We
hicle commissioners all replied, and
249 of the 2s7 cities sent a report
from one or another persons or
groups to which the questionnaires
was addressed. These replies showed
a general tendency for the statistics
TO be collected in two divisions, one
for accidents occurring within city
limits, and the other for traffc acci-
dents occurring outside of corporate
limits-records covering the latter
class being extremely fragmentary.
In some Satisfactorily Maryland.
both motor vehicle and State highway
commissions investigate accidents.
Each seeks information Of an entirely
different type.
In the reports dealing with the use
OF accident information collected, the
committee found that in but a small
proportion OF cases are such figures
used for other than periodical stalls
tical reports, and an even smaller
proportion OF these showed studies
by police departments, educational
work in schools and elsewhere which
made use of such information.

economic loss, the committee points
out, the figures were based on $1,000
a life, and on average of S175 for
each personal injury and an added
actual property damage OF $50 in all
accidents involving either personal
injury or property damage. The
committee took no account OF losses
which obviously arise from delays
and congestion, or such minor prop
erty damages as bent tenders, broken
tail lights or similar mishaps. Neither
did 1t consider the loss due to non-
use of commercial vehicles while un-
dergoing repairs necessitated by ac-
cidents.
"As giving some indication of what
the total losses may aggregate" says
the report. ''the following estimates
by two students OF traffic problems
are Of interest. w. P. Emo and Prof
E. G. Payne presented figures at a

in New Haven, April, 1924, that

Frocks for Girls
Attending School
Simple Costumes Favored
for Teas and Parties
on Campus.

There is a genuine and delightful
informality about the clothes Of the
college girl on her own campus that
is apparent nowhere else, Eotes a
fashion writer in the New York Her
ald-TriDune. Which does not mean
that the fair undergraduate is oblivi-
Gus to the changings of the mode. but
rather that her interpretations of the
latest quirks of fashion are more lib
eral than orthodox
The only specialized problem about
the undergraduates dress concerns
her costumes which are to be worn
for intracollege occasions. These are
divided into two categories, the first
and least important of which is the
recitation outfit. This should be SIM
pie, substantial and transformations.
Under the same classification come

The real problem of college dress,
however, has to do with the clothes
which are to be worn at the intra-
mural functions, such as the freshman
reception, the Junior tea and similar
affairs, which belong strictly to the

Scorch May Come Out

A frequent question put to home
economics workers in the United
States Department of Agriculture is
how to take out scorch. Scorch upon
cotton and linen sometimes can be re-
moved, If the fbers are not actually
burned. Wool and silk are disin-
tegrated at a lower temperature than
cotton and linen and cannot be re-
stored to their original condition
after being scorched.
For removing slight scorch stains
from cotton and linen, use one of the
following methods:
Wash with soap and water. This
is sufficient to- remove very slight
stains. Try water and sunlight. Wet
the spot with water Cor soap and wa
teri and expose to the sun for day,
or longer, II necessary. AS it dries
out wet again The scorch disappears
much more slowly if the material Is
not moistened frequently. Very slight
scorch on the surface of materials
which are not especially delicate
sometimes can be rubbed away with
bread crust
