Distillery at Lawrenceburg, Ind., to liquor connoisseurs for beverage purposes instead of to hospitals or druggists for medicinal uses. Ward hopes to bring the case to trial this fall before witnesses become scattered so far they can not be brought to testify. It will not be the booze king’s first visit to Indianapolis. He is known to have come here often in the days when his gang of liquor purveyors were smuggling highgrade Squibbs liquor to those who had the price to buy. He also was a defendant and witness here in several cases following collapse of his bootleg ring. | The suit was filed July 3, 1921, with W. P. Squibb & Cos., Lawrenceville, and the American Surety Company of New York as defendants. The Government charges that nearly 90,000 gallons of whisky was withdrawn from the distillery warehouse by Remus between Apri : , 1919, and April, 1922. Tax was paid at the non-beverage rate of $2.20 a gallon, according to the suit, when the liquor was intended for beverage purposi, the tax for which was $6.40. The Government is attempt

ing to collect the balance, more than $250,000. The Government seeks to recover on six bonds issued by the American Security Compamy to guarantee that all liquor manufactured within the periods the bonds covered would be handled in compliance with the law. The defendant contends the bonas were given pursuant to the Act of Aug. 27, 1894, providing a tax of only sl.lO, whereas $2.20 actually was paid, under the' Prohibition Ar.t of 1919. . , , Ward said the suit might be tried on only one paragraph, relating to a $50,000 bond given for a permit issued June 29, 1921. action ox: which clearly is not outlawed by thelimitations statute. Permits, alleged to have been stolen from the prohibition administrator’s office in New York City, were used in withdrawing the whisky. Each certificate authorized withdrawal of 1,500 cases for non-bev-erage purposes. Some of the whisky was shipped to New York, while a large part of it was shipped in armored motor trucks, guarded by gunmen, to Remus’ “Death Valley’,’ farm in Ohio, from which it was distributed. Much of it came into Indiana.

CHILD STARS LOSELOSTER Fail to Hold Film Fans as They Grow Older. Bu Times Special HOLLYWOOD, June 22.—What has happened to the child screen stars who, a few years ago, were flooded with fan mail and high salaries? Do their early years of experience aid them on the road to adult stardom? Most of the baby stars have not fulfilled predictions of great adult success, a recent survey conducted by Photoplay Magazine reveals. A few are earning good salaries; many are leading the hand-to-mouth existence of the movie extra. Not one has become a blazing star in the film firmament. Peaches Jackson, who received film credit when she was 5, is a free lance flapper at 16. She earns $25 a day for playing “bits” here and there. In 1918 Ben Alexander

was a freckle-faced kid with an important part in “Hearts of the World. He is still working in films; but has had no outstanding success. Frankie Darro has been one of the luckier of the authentic baby stars. At 4 he played with Alice Terry and Lewis Stone in “Confessions of a Queen.” Now he is playing Western parts with F. B. O. At 3, Mary Jane Irving had an important role in “The Temple of Dusk.” At 14, she is playing a dramatic part in “The Godless Girl” at $35 a week. PROTEST LONG SKIRTS German Girls Declare Seven Inches Below Knees Too Long. BERLIN, June 22.—When Herr George Schaetzel, German minister of communications, issued a decree that women and girls in employ of the civil service should wear skirts extending not less than seven and three-quarter inches below the knee, he caused a lot of trouble. About 37,000 employes of the Association of the German Postal and Telegraph Company gathered to demand his resignation and start a countermeasure against the regulation.
