fUSE Of SUGAR
7 FOR BOOTLEG
Dry Forces Preparing to
Move Against Diversion of
{ Corn Sugar to Liquor Traffic

The Federal government is pre-
pairing to move against the diver,
sion Of corn sugar as a basic
source of supply for the bootleg
industry.
The campaign is to be under
taken in connection with the
broadened scope of prohibition
enforcement made possible by the
increased appropriations for the
coming fiscal year, which includes
an addition of 500 to the present
force of Federal agents.
Plants Invade East
The marked trend in bootleg
eeng today is the swing away
from industrial alcohol for liquor
manufacture, and the correspond
ing demand for corn sugar, from
which alcohol may be manutac-
tured without great difficulty,
provided the manufacturer is will
ing to make a considerable IN
vestment.
These new plants are rapily in
creasing in the West and have
invaded the East. None has made
its appearance in the Washington
territory, however.
Industrial alcohol is fading out
of the bootleg picture chiefly be-
cause of the success of the de-
maturing campaign conducted by
the Prohibition Bureau. This is
true not only of "alcotate," now
being used in all anti-freeze COM
pounds, but also of the oil dena-
turants used for industrial alcohol
generally.
Three Per Cent Diverted
Such real progress has been
made in stopping the leaks" in
industrial alcohol that the Prohi-
bition Bureau estimates that not
more than 3 per cent Of the
total manufactured is now llle-
gally diverted.
The corn products industry and
its subsidiaries probably will pc
brought under surveillance in an
effort to ascertain the real ex-
tent of corn sugar diversion and
the local points of its supply to
the bootleg trade. It's production
has been stimulated in the past
three months by new regulations
issued by Secretary of Agriculture
Hyde which liberalizes its use in
the manufacture of certain canned
and proceSSed foods.

CORRECTION

In reporting the trial of Matthew
Honeycutt in last weeks issue of The
Waterman, it was stated that Honey
cult, who was indicted and convicted
of incest, had had illicit relations
with more than one Of his daughters.
This, it develops, was incorrect and
The Watchman regrets the error and
is glad to make this correction.
Honeycutt was convicted in Superior
court last week on a~eharge of being
the father of four children by one of
his daughters and sentenced to serve
not less han 7 or more than 10 years
in the state prison. There was no
evidence that he had ever had immoral
relations with anyone except the n
daughter, who was the mother of the
four children.

Deadlock Over Officers

The four members of the Colored

still remain in deadlock over the
choice of a fifth member. The board
consists of five members of which
James Rostan and Harry Beard are
follower members. In the recent cleo
ton Harry Duval, Wade Carter and
Theodore Parker were elected men,
bers. Subsequent to election Theo-
dore Parker died in San Francisco.
The constitution of the association
requires the board to name his sue
cessor and this they have been un-
able to do because of equal division
Of the board and neither side willing
to yield. Two members of the
board voted for B. Porterfield whom
the other two refuse to endorse. The
board requested the Pacific Steam
ship officials to settle the matter
which they refused to do. telling
them to settle their own affairs.
