Criticism Of the Maccabees on the

Then Police Reserves Are
Called Out to Rescue Her
From Booth

NEW YORK, July 22.-Josephine
Koykowiser, of $40 Kosciusko street,
Brooklyn, had a lot to tell when
she entered the telephone booth in
the drug store Of I. III. Kipkis, at
SO Reid avenue, Brooklyn. BY the
time she had said it all, it was
the next morning.

was so absorbing that she did not
notice the lights being put out
and the drug store being locked.
She did not hear the, changing Of an
ambulance called to street acct

shouts of the crowd outside. She
talked right through 1t all.
Talk Finally Ended.
Even the most thrilling talk has
to come to an end sometime, and
when the young woman hung up
the receiver and came back from
the Elysian fields, she found herself
a prisoner in the dark drug store.
She ran and beat on the glass
doors and soon had the crowd from
the ambulance.
Get me out" she shouted.
"How did you get in?" they de-
manded. She could not make her
explanation heard and did not re-
gard the question of how she got
in as the matter before the house
anyway. But policeman after po.
liceman came and each one shouted:

tried to crawl through the transom

from the Brownsville and East New

Several understood men were tested

DRY AGENTS BREAK INTO
BREWERY. Find NOTHING

POTTSVILLE, Pa. July 22.-Six
prohibition agents smashed down
the hugh gateway leading into the
yard of the Minersville Brewery,
believing that the manufacture of
teer was going on upon an inten-
siVe scale behind the walls. No
brewery workers were found at
work, however, but large force of
carpenters were making repairs.
Owners of the brewery are much
;ncensed at the breaking and enter
ing without warrants and say they
will retaliate. A large quantity of
aigh-powered beer is being sold in
the anthracite region and, under
stern orders to find out the source
of the beer, the agents are re-

The searchlight of publicity has
seldom been turned upon this side
of the Vice Presidents life. It is
to him a tragic hobby, for the first
of the Dawes hotels was estab-
lished In Chicago as lasting
memorial to the memory of son
drowned in Lake Geneva, Wis, in
1912.
Operated at Cost
The hotels are operated at cost
for the benefit of the men who are
down and out" Meals and a
clean, warm bed are provided, and
IL a man is penniless, he can earn
his food and rest. The Vice Presi.
dent takes a personal interest in
their management. He frequently
visits the institutions and always
supervises their management. All
losses come from the Dawes pocket
book.

Dawes spoke at exercises com

ton. He renewed his attack on
Senatorial rules, and the speech at
tracted wide public attention. A
little while later he slipped away
from admiring friends to visit his
Boston hotel. There he gained
greater satisfaction from helping
the "down-and-outer" than he had
derived from hearing the plaudits
of a multitude.
His underslung pipe-revolution'

To broaden the scope of the pro.

COuzens May Reopen Quiz.
Prohibition headquarters expects
TO maintain an accurate up-to-date
picture of enforcement conditions
in every locality of the United
States.
The question of whether State.
county and. municipal officials who
fail to support the eighteenth
amendment to the Constitution are
fulfilling their obligation of office,
will be considered by the Federal
ficials upon taking the oath of
office swear allegiance and support
to the constitution Of the United
States.
That the CouZens Senatorial com.
mittee which has made a study of
the Bureau Of Internal Revenue
may reopen its probe of prohibition

partment Of Justice disclosures was
the understanding.
May Use Army and Navy.
In the plan to assist enforcement
by a cooperative agreement among
all Government departments it was
understood that the Treasury con-
templates asking for more assist
ance from the Army and Navy.
Officials pointed out that while
these agencies cannot be, used
directly for enforcement OF the
prohibition law, their cooperation
would be invaluable.
Officials declared that all law en-
forcement agencies Of the Govern
ment, have agreed to assist in the
new prohibition program. w. w.
Husband, assistant secretary of
labor, is chairman Of a commission,
organized by Andrews to draw up
the cooperative plan. A meeting
OF this commission is anticipated

comes effective
