F|REMEN TO HAVE
HOME CONF F0RTS
Separate Rooms Projected
for Truck House to BE
Built in Spring.

All the comforts of home will be
provided for the firemen in a new
truck house to be erecter this Spring
northeast, plans for which have just
been completed by Municipal Archi
tect Albert L. Harris.
Instead of tho customary big dor
mitory with its row of white beds
and pairs of rubber boots standing
ready, like sentinels, the new truck
house will have separate rooms for
the men.
At tho suggestion of Chief watson,
the architect has given the second
floor of the new house a balcony
effect. with a series Of small rooms
opening out on circular hallway.
There will be a number of brass
poles on which the man may speed
themselves down 10 the apparatus
noor at the stroke OF the gong.
On the ground floor another iR
novation will be the inclusion of
dining room and small kitChenette
for those men who wish to prepare
a meal at the truck house.
Congress already has appropriated
S62. 900 for the new truck house,
which probably will be completed
soon after July l.
The fire department also will con-
struct this year the first bungalow
engine house in the Conduit road
section. plans for which were made
public several weeks ago.

WHEELER CONDEMNS
DRINKING OFFICIALS
Says Those Who Violate Law Are
in Indefensible Posi-
ton.

Condemnation of the public officials
who violate the prohibition laws was
the subject of an address Sunday
morning by Wayne B. Wheeler at
Calvary Baptist Church.
He declared. in part: The example
of drinking liquor legally possessed
is bad, but that is a matter for the
individual. A public officer or private
citizen violates the law by making,
purchasing or transporting beverage
intoxicants and is in an indefensible
position. Every public official who
takes an oath of office to support the
Constitution encourages other law
violators when he purchases liquor
of bootlegger or makes 1t IN viola
ton Of the Constitution. A Judge who
gets his liquor illegally and then
sentences bootleggers for violating
the same law encourages anarchy in
stead of law and order. There is an
increasing public demand that Fed
eral and State officers obey the laws,
which, by their oath, they are sworn
to enforce The overwhelming me-
iority of the people in this Nation
favor national prohibition. They will
insist on loyalty to that Constitution
and obedience to the laws on the part
of public officials"
Erroneous press reports indicate
that the Stalker OIL 10 Increase penal
ties under the national prohibition
act carried a mandatory Jail sentence
for first offense possession of liquor.
This is incorrect. The proposed bill
provides only for a money fine of from
500 to $500 for first offense of trans
portation or posse ssion; $500 to $1,000
or imprisonment for second offense,
and for a third offense, a money fine
and imprisonme ent. The penalty for
transportation for commercial pur-
poses to stop rum-runners should be
at least a money fine or imprison-
ment for the first offense. The pro-
posed penalties are less drastic than
those found in many Of the State
laws"

FLOATING MINE SEEN
OFF CAROLINA COAST
Crew of Ponce Believe Object to Be
Live and Menace to
Navigation.
By the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
NORFOLK, January 20.-The Amer
lean steamer Ponce Sunday sighted
what was believed to have been a
live mine in latitude 1927 north and
longitude 71:45 west, point just off
the North Carolina coast. The mine
f1oated almost alongside the Ponce
and threw a scare into her officers
and crew.
wireless received here from the
steamer stated that the mine appear
ed to be covered with marine growth
and was considered an extremely dan
gerous menace TO navigation.
Naval officers here said they had no
record of an American naval mine be-
ing adrift anywhere in the vicinity of
the position the Ponce reported. They
were inclined to believe that it might
be a bouy which had been mistaken
for a mine by the captain of the
Ponce.
1t was thought possible, however,
that the mine may be one of many
planted on this side OF the Atlantic
by German submarines during the
war. American mine sweepers re-
moved number of these death deal
ing objects. but it is possible that one
got away and may have been drifting
about in the ocean since.
