LIQUOR
NETS MILLIONS
EACH DAY

Sixteen hundred stills, ranging
from crude affairs fashioned
from tea kettles and bits of
copper tubing, to gigantic plants
capable of producing 1000 gal
Ions of alcohol a day, were cap.
tured by the Federal prohibition
forces in January, Commissioner
James M. Doran announced
today.
Raids in February probably
produced nearly the same re-
suits. Reports have not been
compiled. The dry army was
active against moonshiners dur
ing the first half of March and
many seizures were made, al
though the bootleggers continued
merrily about their business.
Indicating the rapid expansion
of sugar alcohol production was
the capture of 730 plants of that
character chiefly in Chicago,
Detroit, Philadelphia, Pittsburgh,
Cleveland and parts Of New Eng
land. Doran described these
plants as costing from $4,000 to
$4,000 and producing from 1000
to 1000 gallons of alcohol every
day. Some of them can use two
car loads of sugar for a "a run.
On the other hand only go
plants employed in the removal
of denaturantS from industrial
alcohol were seized in January.
While there naturally is some
diversion of industrial alcohol, the
big business of bootlegging is in
the illicit manufacture of corn
sugar alcohol" Doran said. Plants
occupy entire buildings and the
mash containers will hold more
than a carload of sugar at a
time"
Doran made no estimate of the
amount of alcohol produced in
the big distilleries captured, but
other experts estimated it might
exceed 100000 gallons daily. That
volume, converted into bootleg
liquor, would mean about 1,500,-
900 gallons. or an income of mil
lions of dollars day for the
bootleggers on the stills captured
alone, The guess has been made
that Federal and State author
tiles seize no more than one out
of every 10 stills.
Capture of ordinary moonslline
stills, mostly in the Southern
mountains, numbered SGT.

|NARCHAND
BY JAMES L. KILGALLEN

BUFFALO, N. Y, March 81
u.N.S0.-"I had an affair with
Lila Emerson. I'll admit that
But love her? .No-there never
was any real love between u.s."
Henri Marchand, internation-
ally famous artist and sculptor,
b sat In cell number two in the
Erie county Jail here today and
mace these statements to this
correspondent in an exclusive in
Cerview. He was speaking of his
paramour, Miss Emerson, the In
olan woman on trial for the
murder of his wife, Mrs. Clothilde
Marchand, who was hammered
10 death in her home less than
tnree weeks ago.
Achieved Fame
Marchand is So, gray-haired
!. ana MISUNDERSTANDING. He
was born on August %, 1877, the
son OF a noted French inventor
ana a countess. He achieved
!ame IN Paris as a sculptor, hav-
ing won numerous medals, in
Guiding the Grand Prix.
Lila was his model. She posed
Tor MIN on reservation 80 miles
from Buffalo. She is 36 years
OLD. The artists wife, who was
n SO brutally beaten to death, was
%, and, like her husband, an
artist Of high caliber.
1T was my wife, not Lila,
whom I loved" said Marchand.
For 80 years my wife and
lived together. I have been in.
terested to some extent in other
women, will admit, but always
went back to my little wife.
She was not only my wife-she
was my pal.
Il cannot conceive how any
one could entertain the suspicion
\ that could be in any way con-
nected with the death of my wife.
D Why, she was so dear to me; it
is unbelievable that I would want
the slightest harm to befall her.
She was so sweet. She was a
little thing. She weighed only
80 pounds.
Il am a greatly wronged man.
Certainly I had nothing what
ever to do with my wife's DEATH"
Asked if it were not fact that
he was the author of several
!. MY Dear Lila" letters, Marchand
frankly admitted he was and
quickly made this explanation:
Lila COnsumptive
Lila was a consumptive, one
of her lungs were gone. She
knew she never would get we'll.
She used to say she did not care
whether she lived or died. I
urged her to go to the doctor,
and told her if she could not af-
ford to pay him 7 would. When
I wrote those letters was merely
trying to cheer her up"
do you love Lila?" Marchand
was asked by the writer.
His lips curled.
Love her?" he replied. Bah!
There never was any real love
between us. My wife was my only
love. Maybe that was one reason
Ffcr the crime. don't know, but
maybe Lila realized that the only
woman in the world I could ever
love was my wife. After a man
lives with a woman for 80 years
it is even more than love. There
comes a perfect understanding"
II shall always miss my wife
She was my best critic. Always
when I finished piece of work
whether it was for the museum

field, Ill, she would criticize it
= and she was quite capable of do
ing so. To me her criticism was

fist BARES FATAL AFFAIR WITH INDIAN WOMAN
NJ MODIFICATION D
Of DRY Law
IS STUDIED

With the House Judiciary Com.
mittee's wet and dry hearings
temporarily shunted to one side,
the Christopherson judiciary sub
committee today again attacked
the problems presented in the
Wickersham Law Enforcement
Commissions proposals to revise
Federal court procedure.
Representative Christopherson
(R) of South Dakota, chairman,
announced that the subcommittee
may take action on bills tighten
ing up the prohibition paddock"
laws. permitting service by pub
lication on property owners who
evade service.
State Aid Studied
The proposal of the commits
sion to permit State officers to
prosecute prohibition cases in
Federal courts also was to be
considered. The investigating
committee already has referred
other bills, including the Jury
less trial" measure, to the full
committee.
Opposition which has thus far
delayed the bills was somewhat
abated when Representative Gale
H. Stalker CRJ of New York, CO.
author of the Jones IS and 10"
law enacted last year as the last
word in prohibition legislation,
announced that he would not op-
pose its amendment.
Amend Jones Law
The WickerSham program con-
templates amendment of the
JoneS-Stalker law to define petty
violations of the prohibition law,
for which the maximum penalty
would be $500 fine or six months
imprisonment. Under the law as
it stands any liquor law violator,
except for possession, can be sent
/ to prison for five years and fined
| $4,000.
| Stalker said however, he would
accept amendment only if Con
gress enacts the court commits
sioner or "juryless trial" plan of
/ the commission. under which jury
trials could be waived.
AS forerunner to giving juris-
diction to United States commits
Sioners to try minor offenses,
favor the proposed amendment" +"
said Stalker.
Relieve Congestion
'I believe that when proposed
legislation is completed and United
States commissioners are author
! lied to handle minor cases that
congestion in the Federal courts
will be relieved. and the judges
can devote more time to cases of
major violation"
Stalker criticized the Judiciary
Committee for devoting so much
time to the prohibition hearings.
He declared it should be working
on the Wickersham program.
Dry forces, it was indicated,
may close their case in opposi-
ton to repeal of the eighteenth
amendment in hearings next
Wednesday and Thursday. Repre-
sentative Graham (RD of Penn
sylvania, chairman, however, said
the drys would be permitted to
go on until they are ready to
quit.
Ask more time
The drys, he said, had had
equal time with the vets when
the hearings were adjourned last
night. They have asked for more
time.
Following their presentation
the vets will be allowed time for
rebuttal, but their testimony will
be confined strictly to refuting
arguments of dry witnesses.
