NICARAGUA WOMEN
 FIGHT WITH MEN
Brave Shot and Shell on Field
 Of Battle

Managua, Nicaragua Feb. 12 tP}- Nicaraguan women are aiding the men in the present fighting between the conservative and liberal factions in Nicaragua. They proved their mettle in the recent battle for pos session of the important town of Chinandeea when q whole battalion of them, under the leadership of 20- year-old Natalie Garcia. helped the conservatives to achieve victory after several days of fierce fighting.
 Although the duties of the bat talion for the most part consisted of cleaning guns and passing food and ammunition to the conservative sol diers in the trenches, the women were constantly in the midst of heavy fire, and 16 of them were wounded. Senorita Garcia is In grave con dition, having been shot through the chest.
 The conservatives are not looking for another attack on Chinandega. Nevertheless they are not leaving the town entirely unprotected. Even though a substantial army Is being organized to protect Matagalpa, northeastward from Managua, against an expected liheral attack. General Moncado. the liberal com mander. is reported to have two ar mics of about 2,000 men converGing on Matagalpa. The conservatives hope to have 1000 soldiers to meet the attack. The town Of Muy Muy.
 l miles from Matagalpa, Is said to be in the hands of the liberals. who captured it from a small conserva- tive detachment.
 Chinandega. as viewed by the As sOciated Press correspondent after the battle had ended, showed the ef- fleets of the severe fighting, with bodies heaped in the streets, bullet marks on nearly all the houses, and
 l2 blocks of the business section a mass of smoking ruins. According 10 estimates, exact figures being i'm possible, the conservatives lost 250 | men and the liberals 175.

 Every possible legal means Is being used to cut off the bootlegger's s sources of supply. Progress has been made, but of course there is room for great improvement. It Is entirely up to congress now whether we go ahead, stand still or back track"
 Andrews said he Is not consider ing resigning at present. He is still optimistic about passage of pending dry legislation, which would pen the way for him to swing his prohi- bition machine into high gear.

Now Wants More Powers
 From Congress With Which to Combat the MOonshine Booze Traffic

Copyright 1927. by United Press. Washington. Feb. 12 (UP)-The vast prohibition machine under As sistant Secretary of the Treasury An drews has succeeded in stopping the supply of good liquor" in the United States, Andrews maintained today ir an exclusive interview with the United Press. There is considerable moonshine liquor traffic in the coun- try, Andrews admitted. To combat this he needs further powers from congress, he said. Chances Of getting "pre-N Nolstead" liquor are now one in 2OO0, he said.
 Tt is utterly absurd to pass on whether law can be enforced until enforcement agents are given an op- portunity to enforce it." he said. 'So far there has been a lack of congress sional support for needed prohibit tion legislation and there is still need of local cooperation on enforce ment,''
 NIoonshiners Next.
 Moonshiners, he said, are now the one big source of liquor supply.
 "The federal organization is direct ed only at the source of supply, and the moonshine industry cannot be broken until the people themselves
 force local law reinforcement agen. cies to go after these criminals" h. added
 Congress must pass the prohibi' ton reorganization bill and medic inal spirits legislation. and must re lease funds for undercover work il prohibition enforcement work Is tt go ahead, Andrews said.
 The prohibition unit reorganiza tion measure would divorce the or. ganization from the internal revenue 1 bureau and therefore remove dua responsibility" he explained. "Thi' would simplify administration of tho 1 law in every way.
 "The public should be interested in the medicinal liquor bill. It vii assure a pure brand of liquor fo' medicinal needs, and it will save th' government millions of dollars an nually in enforcement work.
 Without secret service agents prohibition can never succeed ! Therefore I am hopeful that con gress will release the s500,00O tunt | for undercover operations.
  | Some of the liquor rings in tho country have big secret service or . ganizations of their own. Fire mus be fought with fire. When run trusts have monthly payrolls 0 moro than s1,o0O,00o, it is time tC realize that brains are behind thu organizations and they can not b' | attacked in the open.
 Secret Service Work.
 Secret service work is the hack ! bone of prohibition enforcement and work of carrying out the provi sions of the Eolstead act will suffe after July l, unless money is mad available for it."
 Andrews said persons who drinl liquor in this era and think it i good are playing a joke on them | selves. There is now only on I chance In two thousand to obtain : drink of genuine pre-Volstead stuff he declared.
 He asserted rum running from th' seas has virtually been ended by tn coast guard, industrial alcohol leak have been reduced 10 minimum new regulations have ended the flov of sacramental wines into bootiej channels and the border patrol have established a successful block ada along tho Mexican boundary. !
