Mixed FOrds and
Made Police Busy

No less law abiding person than
Attorney Ross T. Hiekcox caused the
police of El Centre and other val
ley cities considerable work yester-
day as they hunted for a Ford coupe
which WAS reported by J. c. Sloan
of the Bank of ltay as having been
stolen from Sixth street, opposite
the bank Yesterday morning.
Sloan told the police that he park
ed his ear while he went to the bank
for a short time and upon coming
out of the bank he was considerably
annoyed to find his car missing.
Search of the neighborhood failed to
reveal any trace of the ear and
Sloan notified the police. who sent
word to other police departments in
the valley.
Last night the car was returned
to Sloan in good condition by Attor-
nev Hickcox. who had used il for
the day. Ross also has Ford coupe
which was parked next to the one
owned by Sloan. The LAWYER was
doing a little Sunday work and when
he came down To the street he hop
ped into Sloan 5 car instead of his
own and drove the car for the re
mainder Of the day without noticing
any difference.
When the mistake was eventually
discovered Sloan ; car was returned

! is breaking down completely. To
remedy these alleged conditions
Bruce suggested that the United
States adopt the Canadian system
of local option and government dis
tribution.
The government has tried honest
/ lv for six years to enforce the law,
he contended.
Never in the history of free in
stitutions has any government more
pertinaciously sought to carry out Il
policy obnoxious to powerful sen
timent than has the federal govern
ment in its relation to the Nolstead
act.
Says Deceit Fostered
But il has fostered deceit. per
fidv, espionage and tyranny.
= It has lowered the prestige of
the federal government. II has even
led more than one sober American
citizen who gave his blood or treas.
ure freely to our national cause dur
ing the World War to ask whether
our forefathers did not shed their
blood in the cause of American lib
ertv at Bunker Hill and Camden in
vain.
Bruce argued for the Canadian svs
TEN. He said the total sales of the
Canadian liquor commission during
the four wears of its operation have
exceeded $4,000 900, of which
some $25.s0O,00 has been paid to
the Canadian government in taxes.
The net revenue collected by the
Quebec commission from different
sources, including permits. sales and
licenses. had been around $l9,s 500
600, of which $l7,500,0O0 went to
the Quebec government.
'The ever mounting record of ar
rests for drunkenness in all of our
American cities since the enactment
of the Nolstead act indicates only
too significantly that the humber
and less fortunate members of so
ciety have their Illicit purveyors of
drink. too,' said Bruce.
'The recent utterances Of Jewish
rabbis, Protestant bishops and min
isters and Catholic prelates like
Cardinals O'Connell and Hayes, dem
onstrate the existence of growing
feeling, even among the American
clergy, that absolute prohibition is
not the ally. but the enemy of hui

mately this number did technically
commit a fraud and the situations
thus created for merchants, cred

was a serious and expensive one.
Many people believe that 1t is per
fectly safe to draw check a day
or two before payday knowing that
they will cover the amount into
the bank.
They are honest, but they are
business slackers. They cause un-
told trouble and expense to the
bank. Many depositors believe that
their bank should honor their over
drafts regardless of deposits. These

Is obviously impossible for any
bank to carry out such policy on
a large scale. The status of the
account at the moment the check
is presented for payment must, and
should. guide rational banking
practice.
There are many reasons why the
overhead expenses of banking have
been mounting tremendously in re-
cent years. One of them in Wash
ington, at least, is the handling of
some $4,000 carelessiy drawn over
drafts a year at very conserva-
lively estimated cost to the banks
Of $12,500. This is matter which
can be very easily rectified through
cooperation and care on the part
OF bank depositors who desire, as
most of them do. to keep their bank
ing affairs well within the spirit
and the letter OF the law.
President Savage, OF the Central
Savings Bank. says he believes his
institution has broken the record
among savings banks in the mat
ter of growth. He states that his
bank will have approximately 5000
accounts by February /, exclusive

making the savings deposits $780,
