Government property was obtained
from Federal Court here.
Meredith and his deputies were
given the order to bring the booze
here, and, without making en- inven-
tory of how much was in stock,
shipped the stuff in trucks.
1t was brought to the Federal
building through the mail truck en-
trance and mailing room. The first
loads were trucked into the basement
storeroom'
The remainder was placed in the
second-fioOr room. 1t was estimated
that about 200 cases were taken to
the upstairs room.
Keys to Meredith
Keys to the room were then
turned over to Meredith and it has
been in his charge since.
1t has been pointed out by pro-
hibition officials that some of the
liquor might have been stolen, or
lost, while in transit. Since there
was no original check this can not
be determined
The liquor is said to be the best
ir the country and is valued at $40
a quart, which would place the value
of $50 cases at $4,000.

BUSINESS IS SOLID

Time was when Wall Street panic precipitated
financial terror over the whole nation But those
days seem to have gone forever The first five
months of 1926 testify that the heart of the Nation
has decd to the pulse. instead of the pulse
running heart.
Wall Street has been mighty nervous since the
first of the year. A few gentlemen had put their
heads together and foreseen business depression
for 1926. Wall street got busy and proceeded to
carry out this prediction. But the country couldn't
be bothered.
The country couldn't be bothered because cur
rency and credit have been given fexibiity Twenty
five years ago slump would have meant ruin for
thousands But the added credit facilities ex-
tended by the reserve bank stand like angels ready
