When the raiding party
broke down the door of the
building at 4844 Cordell avenue
about $50 pm, they found the
two suspects tending three sep

There were % 18O-gallon wood
en- vats, "a of them full of

Mr.. Kiefer said the opera
ton was stopped before the
suspects had a chance to
sell any of the moonshine.
Thirty-eight gallons of it were
found in a car, apparently
ready for delivery, he said. The
first batch of whisky apparent
ly was turned out last Sunday,
he added.
Mr.. Kiefer said he is sure the
still was only a part of a much
larger moonShine operation.

it might be the work of novices

This was an auto refrigera-
ton company, he said, and the
man who runs it came close to
spelling the raiders plans in
advertently.
Earlier this week, with agents
and police stationed in strategic
spots around the suspected
building, the man from the
refrigeration company tried to
get into it, Mr.. Kiefer said. He
ratified the knob, but the door
was locked and no one opened it.

going to have to pull the raid

Smell Too Strong
The operators had made a
determined effort to minimize
the smell of the fermenting
mash by keeping the quarters
and equipment spotlessly clean,
Mr.. Kiefer said, but it didn't
work.
THE area smelled so bad
that a neophyte investigator
could tell what was going OH
a block away" he said.
The building, which could be
described as a small manufac-
turing plant, had been rented
to the American Overhead Door
Co., apparently a front for
the moonShine operator, Mr..
Kiefer said.
He said he was acquainted
with one of the suspects.
Joseph Dowell. He personally
arrested him in October, 1858,
driving a carful of illegal
whisky from a still in the
La Plata area of Southern
Maryland, Mr.. Kiefer said.
Dowell recently was released
after serving a Jail term grow
