POLICE ACT TO CLOSE 20,000 GOTHAM JOINTS Task of Closing Vast Number of Speakeasies Is Set for Cops. BY MAX BUCKINGHAM United Press Staff Correspondent NEW YORK. Dec. 22.—New York’s police set out today on a task which the federal government has failed to accomplish, the closing of the city’s 20,000 speakeasies. Police have received their orders from Grover Whalen, new police commissioner, to raid places where liquor is sold as the first step in ferreting out criminals. Speakeasies, Whalen told his captains, are “breeding places of crime” and must be closed if the new police administration is to clean up the city. “Gum Shoe” Squad Disbanded Each captain will be held personally responsible for his district, Whale said, and will have to work against the speakeasies without the assistance of the “gum shoe” squad. The “gum shoe” squad, or the personal investigation bureau as it is officially known, was disbanded Thursday by Whalen’s orders. Inspector Lewis J. Valentine was reduced to the rank of captain and assigned to an obscure precinct in Long Island City. Whalen emphasized he would not countenance “wire-tapping” methods, and for that reason he said he saw no use in continuing the “gum-shoe” squad. There are forty men in the confidential squad, all of whom will be assigned to new posts. Wants Slayer’s Arrest It was revealed that Whalen considers the arrest of the slayer of Arnold Rothstein as of supreme importance. “I hardly have had time to geimy chair warm yet,” Whalen said, “but I can say the Rothstein case will be the first task of the detective division. You may be sure that we are at work on the case.” ‘STAND ON YOUR OWN,* DAWES TELLS PAGES Farewell Party Given by Retiring Vice-President. Bu United Preen WASHINGTON. Dec. 22.—Vicepresident Dawes’ advice to boys is to break away from the crowds and fight for their convictions. At his farewell party for the senate pag..?

WOMAN SUES TO WEARPANTS French Auto Racer Insists on Right to Swear. Bn United Press PARIS, Dec. 2!.—Madame Violette Morris, champion French woman automobile driver, has sued the Federation of Women’s Sports to uphold her right to wear pants and swear. Madame Morris seeks 100,000 francs damages because she was refused a license by the federation on the grounds: First, that she continues to wear pantaloons or breeches despite the objections of federation officials. Secondly, that she personally seeks the favor of sports writers. Thirdly, that her language and habits are shocking and objectionable to the federation’s membership. Madame Morris said today that she is the granddaughter of a French army general, and admitted that her language contains many picturesque phrases learned in army barracks. She objects, however, to quitting pantaloons. “Look around you and see the women with their knees crossed,” she said. “Ask yourself, which is more immodest, their scanty dresses or my pantaloons?” Births GlrlK Lawrence and Colletta Welborn. 1018 High.

OSTRACISM FOR HOME COCKTAIL DRINKERSURGED Anti-Saloon League Victory Convention Is Held in Chicago. I • and I .• ** CHICAGO, Dec. 22.—Social ostracism of all who serve cocktails or in other ways scoff at the Volstead act was urged at the Illinois Anti-Sa-loon League "victory” convention here. Discussion of the policies to be pursued in 1929 formed a major part of the business of the convention, which was called to celebrate the election of Herbert Hoover and the “overwhelming vote by which, this country supported the prohibition cause.” "Public sentiment brought about prohibition and public sentiment will enforce the law,” Dr. Howard Hyde Russell, founder of the league, told the delegates. “The job which we have started will be finished by the next generation.” Dr. Arthur Dean Bevan, dean of Rush Medical college, charged the medical profession with grafting $40,000,000 a year through liquor prescriptions. “Alcohol has little medicinal value,” he said. “At the Presbyterian hospital, where we take care of 12,000 patients a year, we have not prescribed a single bottle of alcoholic liquor since prohibition. “And yet 90 per cent of the physicians regularly prescribe their full allotment of 100 pints every three months. These men are a disgrace to the medical profession.” Resolutions adopted urged that public officials follow PresidentElect Hoover in "their attitude toward prohibition, that liquor law violations be more severely punished, that the dry lorces secure the election of dry legislators and that the press support the government in the observance and enforcement of the law. The Mauretania crossed the Atlantic from Cherbourg to New York in five days, three hours and seventeen minutes, thus establishing a new w’orld’s record.
