Bootleggers Buy
Direct From Big
Distilleries Now
Tn The Sir walter Hotel.
IN the Sir Walter Hotel.

RALEIGH, Dec. 14-North Carolina
nootleggers nov buy about ninety per
cent of their illicit LIQUOR direct from
distillers in Ohio and Kentucky, in
the opinion of Guitar Moore, chair
Control board.
This is a change in tactics which
has occurred within the last few
months. Up to then most of the liquor
sold in so-called dry counties of North
Carolina was either stilled locally or
was shipped in by jobbars and whole
sale houses in Maryland.
The present technique calls for
shipment by the truckload direct from
7istillery to i.ootlcg ioint-usually
Hing station or might spot along
.;7a 9 prominent highway
The LIQUOR is wav-billed to some
noint in South Carolina, making it a
practical impossibility for enforce
nent officers to interfere with it's
transportation, their only hope being
to catch the truck in the act of I'M
loading or to locate large cases of the
liquor after it has been unloaded and
is awaiting sale.
In dfy counties the DOOtleSSer must
still face fierce competition from
dealers in fortified wines, the accent
being On fortification instead of wine
Even in ABC counties, however, the
hootlegger doesn't always get his
wares from the county stores. They
have discovered that by buying large
lots at the distilleries they can get
their wares cheaper. So in these coun-
ties there is a three-way bid for the
trade-the legal stores, the bootlegger
and the wine" seller being all inter
ested in the chap who likes his drink.

GIN FIRE LOSSES
FOR STATE HEAVY
State College Specialist De-
clares $4,000, 900 Can
Be Gut

College Station, Raleigh, July 90
Fire losses in cotton gins, amounting
to more than $2,0OO,OOO annually, can
be greatly reduced, says ]. G. Fer
guson, cotton gin specialist of the
State College Extension Service.
When humidity is low and cotton
is dry and dirty, high voltage charges
of static electricity are common in
unloading and distributing systems
in cleaners and lint flues, and on
shafts and belts An effective way to
remove these charges and reduce the
fire hazard, he said, is to ground all
equipment that may accumulate a
static charge.
Such a grounding system is de-
scribed by the Bureau of Chemistry
and Soils in U. S. Department of
Agriculture Circular 76.
Fire-packed bales are another fire
hazard that can be greatly reduced,
according to Ferguson, if the ginner.
Immediately after fire in the gin,
plaintly and conspicuously marks the
first bale that is tied out following
the fire. This Identification will warn
other handlers that precautions
should be taken to prevent its being
