false teeth are used with proper care

In consideration OF the proper
use of substitute teeth, DR.. p. L.

suggestions.

Prohibition in the Courts
New York Tines


During the month of January, 90
per cent of the prohibition cases in
the Federal courts terminated in con-
victions. Director Woodcock calls
this IAN unprecedented figure" and
offers his congratulations to every
one in the bureau
Before concluding that we are
about to witness strict enforcement
Of law which has been laxly admin
istered since the date of its enact
ment, it is useful to analyze Mr..
Woodcock'S figures. He reports that
the Government obtained 6052 con-
victions "by verdictS of guilty and
pleas of guilty" He also reports
that there were 311 jury trials during
the month and that 80 of these re-
suited in acquittals. 1t follows, there
fore, that of the Governments 6,O52
convictions only 222 were obtained by
"verdicts guilty" the remaining $3.50
by "pleas of guilty" In other words,
nineteen out of every twenty convic-
tons were obtained by the familiar
process of bargain days" method
enabling violators of the law to plead
guilty in return for the imposition of
light fines, amounting in many cases
to less than the prohibition IL
cense fee. OF this system of bargain
day enforcement, President Hoover
said two years ago that it distinctly
underlnines respect for law"
Yet no other system of enforcement
has ever been available to the Gov
eminent, since the courts would be
thrown into even greater confusion If
an effort were made to bring every
violator of the Volstead law to trial.
During the last fiscal year SO per
cent of the criminal cases handled by
the Department of Justice were un-
der single statute, the national pro-
hibition act. There are not enough
courts and judges in the country to
handle this mass of cases by any
other method than by bargain days"
The situation was accurately de-
scribed by Mr.. Buckner during his
term as United States Attorney in
this district. Enough arrests were
being made in New York City every
month, he pointed out, to occupy for
an entire year the attention of such
Federal judges as were available for
prohibition cases, assuming that the
Government asked in each case for a
Jail sentence, which meant jury
trial. At the end Of a years ef-
fort, therefore, on the basis of
Jury trial for each defendant, the
Federal courts would find themselves
with eleven years work to handle BY
the end of two years effort they
would be twenty-five years behind
schedule. In ten years they would
lose century.

making returns. Chief among the
reasons for the delay was the pos
sibility that congress might enact q
law changing the rates or the ex-
emptions applicable to 1881 incomes.
Commenting on how the taxpayers
can save themselves money by MAX
Ing accurate reports the bureau says:
when returns are first received
in the office of the collector of
internal revenue they must be
verified for the purpose Of de-
termining their mathematical
accuracy. Why not perform this
task for the government? Tax
payers have no douot reviewed
their income returns and are sat-
isfied they are correct in every
particular AS an extra precau-
ton they should go over them
again and see if the computa-
tons will stand the test of Scru-
tiny in the government office.
When mistakes of this nature are
made, refunds must be allowed If
the error is in favor Of the tax
payer If the mistake means adj
ditional tax for the government
considerable work must be per-
formed by the collector to assess
the tax and bill the taxpayer for
the additional amount. If the
government can be relieved OF
this additional labor, and what is
more important, of the additional
expense, why not do it, because in
the final analysis an expense
saved for the government is
equivalent to its value in addi-
tional tax. In helping the gov
eminent during these times we
are helping ourselves and we owe
it to our country and to our fell
low citizens to lessen the govern
ment's burden wherever possible"
This is unusual, to say the least
and somewhat refreshing.

happened to that beloved, familiar
room? Since morning 1t had

Everything about 1t had been
changed. The worn carpet was
gone. The floor had been polished
and was covered now with summer
scatter rugs. The familiar contour
of the furniture was lost beneath
smart slip covers in gray and
orange. Curtains of the same gray
and orange material fluttered al
the windows. New pewter ash

On March /, 1918, American troops
in the Toul sector of the western
front repulsed a heavy German raid.
Heavy losses were inflicted on the
raiding party.
This action was one of the heav-

The British armed mercantile
cruiser Calgarian was sunk by a sub

of her crew.
A treaty was signed between Fin
