SMALL STILLS

LIQUOR STOCKS
Prohibition Bureau Finds
BootIeggers Divide Sources
to Prevent Seizures.

81 ScripDS-Horqrd Newspaper 1Hi0pcC
WASHINGTON, July %. - The
day of the giant still for manulac-
ture Of moonshine liquor is passing
it is indicated by statistics at tho
prohibition bureau.
Instead liquor is being manuiac-
turcd in smaller quantities scat
tered over wider territory.
In earlier prohibition days larger
stills and larger concentrations OF
liquor we're seized than in the last
year or two, prohibition officials
said.
Omcials in the bureau attribute
this to scattering of bootleg stocks
and manufactures in order to
make seizures more difficult and to
prevent a bootlegger losing his ell
tire source OF supply in g single raid.
The larger bootleggers are now
found to operate groups of stills and
to cache their bootleg liquor in more
than one concentration point.
The Jones f1ve-and-ten law is not
held responsible because the same
trend was true in the year ending
June 30, 1923, before the Jones law
was adopted. Incomplete figures

HOSPITAL AID ASKED
Aviation Increases Need,
SAYS SChOrtemeIer.

While Indianapolis citizens arc
becoming air-minded they must not
become forgetful of the existing de-
mand for adequate capitalization
facilities, in the opinion of Frederick
E. Schortemeier, indianapolis attOr-
ney and former secretary of state.
SchortemGier is a member of the
citizens committee Of sponsors for
the 100000 drive Of the Indiana
Christian hospital.
1t is the desire of everybody to-
day that indianapolis become an
aviation center and We are ConCen-
trating our efforts toward that end,
Schortemeier asserted.
Such development will undoubt-
edly benefit the city great deal,
but We must remember that CO.
existent with industrial growth
which brings additional population
there is an increasing demand for
disqualification facilities.
Il have watched the growth Of
the Indiana Christian hospital for
more than A quarter OF a century.
I am fully convinced that it is do
ing noble work and deserves tbs
support of everybody
