NOW BOOTLEGGERS
MUST PAY AND PAY
viii Exact Fines for Not
Meeting Old U. S. Tax
on Liquor Sale.

A campaign to collect internal
revenue penalties against convicted
bootleggers in Indiana was begun
today by George L. Winkler, deputy
dry administrator, with H. P. Love-
land, Washington prohibition de-
partment attorney.
This means that the bootleggers
who thought they had settled with
the law by serving time or paying
fines probably will enrich the Gov
ernment several hundred thousands
of dollars because. they have not
paid the ancient Federal tax on re-
tail sale of liquor. This tax, which
brought in millions in saloon days,
still is in effect and when it can
be proven that anyone has sold
liquor, even though the law says it
cahnot be done legally, he is subject
to the stiff penalties for failure to
pay the tax
The collectors will go after boot
leggerS convicted in both State and
Federal Courts. A preliminary check
shows about 100000 in possible
penalties,
The prohibition collectors have
another club with which to wallop
the bootlegger. The Volstead act
provides for penalties in civil suits
as well as the fines and Jail sem
tences. Thus a bootlegger may be
forced to undergo this total pun
iShment:
Fine and sentence in State or
Federal Court.
One thousand dollar penalty for
failure to pay liquor sales tax, plus
double the tax of $6.40 a gallon.
One thousand dollar penalty un-
der Volstead act for selling liquor
in State which has a State prohi-
bition law.
Five hundred dollar penalty un-
der Volstead act for violating the
Federal prohibition act.
Either the 500 year license fee
for retailing liquor plus 25 per cent
penalty for failing to have paid
such fees.
! Besides all these there are num-
Der of minor penalties the Governor
can collect, Loveland said.

T1Uin Babies
Die i'm Blast
Near rMedOru

BIZ United Press
MEDORA, Ind. March 27.-Two
babies were burned to death and
their father and mother probably
will die as a result of a coal oil eX-
plosion in a farm home near here
shortly before noon today.
Howard Gilbert. 35. and his wife,
doctors said, had little chance to
recover. The babies-twins-
asleep in their crib when the eX-
plosion occurred.
AS Gilbert lighted a match to
apply it to the oil placed in a stove
to start a fire, deafening eXplo-
sion occurred.
Immediately the house was in
flames. Mrs. Gilbert ran to her
husbands aid, and attempted to
fight the fire.
Both husband and wife finally
succeeded in reaching the room
where the twins we're, but the fire
had gained such proportions that
the house was a virtual furnace.
Gilbert, seeing the babies could
not be reached, carried his wife from
the house. Both mother and father
were burned so badly that flesh fell
from them when neighbors lifted
them on to beds.
One of the babies bodies was re-
covered, but the other was charred

tomobile going east on Twenty
First st. in our path.
We were travelling about forty
miles an hour, siren shrieking and
the red light glowing on the front
of the car.
The driver going east drove to the
middle Of the street and John Gish,
our chauffeur, swung to the right
out of the car track, thinking to
swerYe around the other car.
But instead of halting, as we eX-
Ipected it would, thus giving us a
chance to maneuver around it. the
other car was turned north block
ing our path entirely.
Cish had no choice but to take
the curb at the northeast corner.
The crash must have broken the
wheels, leaving us without brakes.
1t seemed like we slid for some
distance and then crashed.
Everything seemed to go black.
The first thing I knew someone
was pulling the top of the touring
car from my head, where it had
fallen.
I looked to the right and there I
saw Griff Niblack, laying inert, with
his head against stone wall
My hip and leg panied me greatly.

Clarence Has Right to
His Crow, Council
Rules; No Operation.

DENVER, Colo, March 81
IL Clarence, a rooster, awakened
the neighborhood as usual today,
thanks to the action of the Den
yer city council, which decided
Monday night that Clarence would
not be the object of a surgical
operation to remove his crow.
Two weeks ago Mrs. Mary Mil
Ter complained to the council
that Clarence, property of w. E.
Horne, made her early morning
sleep "hideous." The council sug-
gested that a physician remove
Clarence's crow.
Horne protested.
A hearing was held Monday
night. All the principals, except
Clarence, were there.
The neighborS reiterated their
charges against Clarence's crow.
Horne just as staunchiy reiterated
his belief in Clarence's innocence.
He intimated that the neighbors
woke Clarence by making too
much early morning noise them
selves
After lengthy arguments the
council ruled. arbitrarily and
unanimously, that Clarence should
not be operated upon, and sug-
gested the neighbors should ex-
ercise forbearance.
