THREE-MILE ZONE MENACE SEEN IN PLEASURE SHIP ‘lncidental Drunk’ Adds to Summer Worries of Congressional Dry Leaders. ADVERTISEMENTS ALLURING Wayne B. Wheeler Wants Limit Fixed at Twenty-Five Miles Instead of Three. By C. C. LYON, I'nited Press Staff Correspondent.

The "incidental drunk” itself is bad enough, but it becomes, according to dry leaders, a "shame, a disgrace, a downright horror” when placed in its latest setting, viz: "An atmosphere of festivity, enchanting orchestrations, the most beautiful of Europe's women, selected for their artistic ability as exponents of classic and fancy dancing and operatic singing, and a feast prepared by the best chefs from abroad.” The Anti-Saloon League has informed Congress that all this—and more—is being promised in advertisements by a concern in New York that is preparing to open a “recreation ship” just outside the three-mile limit.

The "Incidental drunk” part follows "naturally,” according to the advance notices. Wheeler has prepared an elaborate legal brief to convince Congress it has the right to fix any number of

Arrested on Tiger Charge Sam Clayton and John McClintock, living in Fleming Gardens, an addition west of the city, were arrested on blind tiger charges early, today.
