BY GEORGE HOLMES

The Federal Government Is pro-
ceeding gingerly-and with con-
siderable embarrassment-in the
matter of dealing with grape juice
products that skirt the edge Of
the Volstead law.
The Governments dilemma Is
that the Government itself has
fostered, supported and encour-
aged the production Of grapes far
beyond the country's capacity to
consume them unless the excess
production can find an outlet In
wine-making. And wine-making
may or may not be against the
law. The Department Of Justice
SHES away from the question with
remarkable agility.
Policy Retained
For the time being. Attorney

PAIR
BREAKS JAIL

ROCKVILLE, Md, Nov. 81.
Digging a hole through the jail
wall and scaling the outer walls,
two negro prisoners made their
escape from the Rockville jail
early today.
Posses have been securing the
country, but SO far have not
picked up their trail.
The fugitives are Windsor But
Ter, serving a term of four years,
and William Jones. serving ID
months. Both men were con-
victed of houSebreaking and en-.
tered the Jail two months ago.
Dig Hole in Wall
Last night the men ripped the
iron rods from their cots and used
them as crowbarS.
They managed to dig hole In
the side of the jail large enough
to wriggle through. Jumping to
the ground, they ran across the
Jail yard, scaled the wall and
made their escape.
A truSty heard them going over
the wall and called the night
guard who discovered the break
and gave the alarm.
On Second Floor
According to j. E. Mosley,
jailer, the two men made their
getaway about $3.50 o'clock this
morning. Their cell was on the
second floor.
Eight Escape in Three Years
The number of men escaping
the last three years has now
reached the total of eight. Only
one has been returned. The jail
was built in 1852 and it will soon
be replaced by a stronger jail

completed,

Although strangers to Mr..

His seats, however, will not
