The vaunted activities of the Citi-
gems Service Association for Law and
Order have not served to lessen the
labors of those Police Court judges
whose duty it is to face the daily
lineup of DRINKS, check at the
clerk of courts office today dis
closed.
The prime objective Of the Service
Association, according to Harry N.
Douthitt, field secretary, and other
officials, is to cut off the liquor sup
ply in the District at its source.
Realization Of this purpose, they
point out, would greatly decrease
the amount of drunkenness in Wash
ington.
The records in the clerks office
show that during the first six months
OF 1926 Police Court judges heard
1882 cases of persons charged with
intoxication. During the correspond
ing period in 1927 the Service Asso-
citation was organized. The records
show that during this period the
number of intoxication cases brought
into Police Court totaled 6,67s, or
as more cases than during the period
before the organization Of the Ser
vice Association.
Police Court judges are not en-
thusiastic over the associations
work.
Judge George HI. Macdonald said
he had no criticism to make Of the
association, but he doubts IL it will
be able to accomplish much
Gus A. Schuldt, presiding judge,
refused to make any statement, de-
claring he did not believe public
official should enter into a contro-
versy with public organization. He
added, however, that he had not mo-
ticed any decrease in the number of
drunk cases.

Ensign Charles Loughran Duke,
OF 1901 Nineteenth st. N. W., as
he is known in the United States
coast guard service, Is the newest
name to be added to the Hall of
Fame.
And here's the story:
Early yesterday-before dawn
Ensign Duke with a crew of two,
left the coast guard station at
Stapieton, Staten Island, to search
for rum ship, reported to be in
that vicinity.
His Command Is Ignored
His craft, motor launch, soon
sighted the section ship Greypoint.
The vessel carried no lights.
Duke brought his craft along
side the rum ship and cried out
"Heave to and cast anchor" with
as much aplomb as he once showed
when he told a hard-boiled compos-
ing room foreman where to head in.
His command was ignored. He sent
a shot across the bow Of the ship.
In choppy waters. he brought his
speedy little cutter alongside the
ship and then resorted to plain
Yankee bluff and sheer courage.
Grasping the rail of the ship,
Duke, brandishing his automatic
pistol, leaped aboard. When a
husky sailor sought to stop him
he sent him spraying on the deck.
