"HELL's HlGHRoAD"
 IS REAL ENTERTAINMENT

''Helrs Highroad," the DeMille su- pervised production which is showing at the Liberty tonight and Monday, is unique in that while it is story with a moral, at no time does the moral stand out nor does the audience feel that it is being taught lesson.
 The locale of the picture sweeps from the lowly and crowded cheap apartment districts of Chicago and New York to the sheer luxury of life among the Long Island millionaire haunts, with suddenness that is breath-taking and yet with a sureness that makes this almost improbable

LEAGUE BOARD MEETS
Resolutions Adopted at the Semi
Annual Meeting of the Board of
Trustees of the Anti-Saloon
League of Illinois
RESOLVED:

hat the Board OF trustees OF the Anti
Saloon League Of Illinois hereby extend
their hearty congratulations to the drys
of the entire State for their frmness of
purpose exhibited in the recent senatorial
election, and the stability with which they
held their ground and refused to be di-
verted from their great task Of sustaining
the prohibition policy against the severest
attack made in the State of Illinois.
RESOLVED:
That we call attention to the far-reach-
ing benefits growing out of the results of
this election and that it gives notice that
the drys are thoroughly in command of
the general situation in the State of llli-
nois, that they arc able to discriminate be-
tween a referendum that is futile and an
election which is worth while.
The huge vote of 97l000 in support of
the two candidates AT large running on
dry ticket, shows conclusiyely that the
voters of Illinois are not hostile to proh
bition. This election gives no encourage
ment to the vets to weaken the Vol
stead Act. pass resolutions in favor of re-
peal OF the Amendment or appoint vets
to the job Of enforcing the prohibition law.
RESOLVED.
In view of the renewal of the nation
wide attack on the Volstead Act and upon
the entire prohibition policy, we earn
est1y urge all members of the Legislature
who are loyal to the dry cause, to be on
Al y Of Of
fort of the vets to make use OF Federal
or State Legislation to repeal or weaken
the dry laws, and we urge thk promotion
of carefully considered measures which
have for their purpose the strengthening
of the enforcement of the National and
State prohibition laws, and that we offer
aggressive antagonism to all efforts from
whatever source which have in view the
notification of the Constitution of the
United States.
RESOLVED:
That we recommend the enactment of
measures to provide funds for the use
of county attorneys and sherifFs in secur-
ing evidence of the violation of the prohi-
bition law.
RESOLVED:
That we express our hearty apprecia-
ton of the work being done by the Fed
eral Enforcement Bureau of Illinois un-
der the direction of Mr.. Yellowley, and
commend the efforts of many district at
torneys to enforce with vigor the Anti
Liquor laws of County, State and Nation.
RESOLVED:
That we hereby assert, on the basis of
ample testimony available to all thought
full citizens, that the sentiment in support
of the National Prohibition policy is stea-
dily strengthening in our State, that there
is a gradual drift of sentiment from the
wet to the dry side, that enforcement of
prohibition laws, National and State. is

AN EPOCH-MAKING DECISION
Judge Cliff Holds Resort Keepers
Guilty of Conspiracy for Permit
ting Guests to Bring Liquor to
Be Drunk on Premises


the enforcement of the prohibition law
has been created by those who carry
their own liquor to places of entertain
ment a nd there make use of it in social
intercourse with their friends.
Up to date, proprietors of such resorts
have established an alibi successfully by
claiming that they neither kept the liquor
on hand nor sold it through their patrons
and that they could not be held respon-
sble if patrons brought their own liquor
and consumed it on the premises.
Judge Adam Cliffe, of the United States
District Court for the Northern District
of Illinois, Eastern Division, has just rem
dered very important decision on this
subject, following the lead of a Wisconsin
judge in ruling upon the same problem.
The learned justices hold that the pro-
prietors of resorts who Systematically
permit their patrons to bring in liquor
and furnish these patrons with glasses,
water, ice and whatever other accessories
are necessary in mixing cocktails and
other forms Of alcoholic drinks, were to
be regarded as aiding and abetting in the
violation of the law By this decision
several notorious night life resorts are to
