RAPS CITIZENS FOR FAILURE TO BACK DRY LAW Anti-Saloon League Head Describes State as Being ‘Lax.’ Indiana law enforcement officials can enforce the prohibition amendment . . . The people of Indiana have been a “little lax’’ in telling officials they want the dry act enforced . . . That's the way the Hoosier liquor situation appears to L. E. York, superintendent of the Indiana AntiSaloon League. His statement was in answer to the assertion of Major Maurice Campbell, former prohibition director, that the dry law is being enforced only in six states. Indk na was not one of the states in the small group of the forty-eight that Campbell named. Up to Citizens York also declared it was the responsibility of the residents of Indiana to let Ivy officers “know what the people want." “The people should applaud prohibition officers for acts which meet their approval as well as berate them for doing things they don’t like,” he said. That Campbell’s statement is the propaganda of wet organizations and official statistics are being shunned, was charged by Ethan A. Miles, attorney for the league. “The greatest mistake being made j today by the anti-prohibitionists is that they are making their statements and arguments so silly that sensible people know they are false," he said. “Indiana, of course, should be included in the list of states en- : forcing the dry law. “Some Indiana cities are not cooperating fully, but, taking the state as a whole, there is general enforcement and respect for the prohibition law." “Trving” to Enforce Law Prosecutor Herbert E. Wilson said that Indiana is “trying to enforce the dry law.” “Campbell’s statement seems to be one-sided but, however, there is a lot of truth in it.” Wilson said. “There is practically no enforcement in Kew York state and in other neiglv-bring eastern states. It seems that Indiana is about as ‘tight’ as any in the Union when it comes to enforcing the liquor and gambling laws.” The police department is doing its “utmost" to enforce the prohibition law in Indianapolis, according to Police Chief Mike Morrissey. Morrissey said two squads are assigned to dry law duty all the time and that these officers work directly with the federal administration of prohibition. Ready to I)o Duty “Every police officer and squad is j prepared to do his or their duty to stop violation of the law," Morrissey said. One of Major Campbell’s statements in his publication, “Repeal,” is that in the six states where the law is being enforced there is “real co-operation” with federal agents. “We co-operate with the federal department to the limit,” Morrissey said. “Our two special squads prove that. We are prepared to give the government all the aid and men needed any time.” State Cops Co-operate Police Chief Grover Garrott said ! that his men are not empowered with authority to make liquor raids. However, if liquor is discovered while state policemen are investigating or making arrests in connection with any crime over whch they have jurisdiction, they have the power to hold the suspects for charges. Charles O. Britt, deputy prohibition administrator, is out of the city and could not be reached for his version on the charges of Campbell. The six states which Campbell said actually enforced the dry law are New Hampshire, Ohio, West Virginia, Virginia, South Carolina and Oregon. TALK WITH DEALERS ON BUYING TRUCKS Stale Officials Negotiate for Purchase of 100. Talks with truckmen continued at state highway department headquarters today in preparation for the purchase of a fleet of from 100 to 110 light and heavy trucks Wednesday. The state highway commissioners are scheduled to meet Wednesday and pass on recommendations made them by department officials.

GUY BATES POST IS STILL GREAT ACTOR Original Star of The Masquerader’ Brings Marvelous Artistry to the Arthur Casey Company Here. YEARS have not dimmed the marvelously dramatic performance that Guy Bates Post gives to the dual role in “The Masquerader.” I first saw this show over twenty years ago and the play and ‘the work of Post was just wonderful and compelling when I saw the Arthur Casey production at English's on the opening night.

Post is so much of the theater himself and “The Masquerader” is such rousing good theater that it is

a joy to see these both together again. The star told me that he had not played John Chilcote, the drug fiend and: member of parliament and his double, John Loder, for the last two years, but his char acterization is just as solid, spirited and reflecting the terrible human misery of the drug

victim as it was when I first saw the star at the Murat so many years ago. Here is great acting as well as great theater. Post has never offended good taste by over doing the drug scenes. His work in the death scene is still one of the acting wonders of the stage. In his mad outburst in the second act before Chilcote goes to the garden party, he rises to such dramatic suffering that one marvels at the marvelous sincerity of Guy Bates Post. And he gives John Loder individual characteristics and is able to inject some comedy In the somber surroundings. Here is an actor of the old school, but his acting is even brighter before a modern audience. Post does not allow the play to show its age. “The Masquerader” with its cast and the its revolvir- stages seems very, Very modern. And credit goes to Arthur Casey because he has spent plenty in production and cast this week. Lillian Kemble-Cooper, who often has played Eve Chilcote opposite Mr. Post, is playing the same role this week with pleasing charm and understanding. Her gowns are beautiful. Brock, faithful servant of Chilcote, is played splendidly by Dick Elliott. Here is a splendid allround characterization. Prances Dale makes Robins, the English I slavey, a compelling and forlorn little creature. I will give you the entire cast as follows: John Chilcote Guy Bates Post John Loder Guv Bates Post Brock Dick Elliott l Herbert Fraide Carl Brickert i Bobbv Blessington Donald Woods Mr. Lakelv Walter Davis Lord Bramfell Freddie S'nerman Greening Freddie Sherman Doctor Edward Fitzgerald Allston Milton Bvron Cant.

the arms of a nice young soldier (played by Kent Douglas) and the lad is won over by her charm. He does not suspicion that she is just a woman of the streets because he is able to reconstruct into her mental being a love of beauty and nature, of a home and the like. Myra can’t understand his offer of money from one friend to another new-found friend. This brings to Myra a terrible mental and spiritual conflict. She can’t understand a male bird of this type. And so the battle goes on. The boy takes the girl to the home of his parents and there Myra realizes after talking to his mother (splendidly acted by Enid Bennett) that she can not marry this fine lad because they are of different worlds. In a fine scene, Myra (Mae Clarke), tells the boy’s mother that she is just a woman of the streets and that although he does not even

THE PENALTY OF GRAY HAIR Gray hair —age —slipping. All these unpleasant ideas seem to go together. Yet, it is not at all necessary. Gray Hair often comes to a young head and people who have it are neither old nor incapable. But how often you hear people say, “Why, she has gray hairl” and—she Is on the shelf. This penalty need no longer handicap the woman who uses Canute Water. This is a clear, spring-like water, of wonderful properties which actually restore hair to its original girlhood color. No complicated “color plan” ; no danger of getting brunette shade when your hair is blonde. Not only the one kind but the one bottle is enough. It really is surprising what successful, youthifying results it gives. Apply Canute Water yourself, in the privacy of your own home. Many women in town are doing the same thing; they simply do not mention it. You need not mention it either. Just buy a bottle from any good druggist—and get rid of the “age penalty” in gray hair. Canute Water is so safe, so scientific and sure that your dealer knows it will satisfy you; if not, he will refund your money. Sold and recommended by Hook’s Dependable Drug Stores or your own druggist. The Canute Cos., Milwaukee, Wis.—Advertisement.

suspect her true character she could not marry him. The mother understands and tells the girl that “she is too fine to bring such misery into the life of a good boy.” Myra escapes to London, puts on her walking togs, but just can’t pick up the courage to attract men. The boy follows her and learns from the landlady the true character of the girl. He pleads with her again on Waterloo bridge to marry him. He is ready to go back to the front and as an air raid becomes menacing to the lad, she promises to marry him when he returns. Then the climax, an aerial bomb strikes the bridge and kills the girl. Not a pleasant story. Both Myra and the boy are rather overdrawn characters. The boy seems to be too dumb to be true.

FLYING SLEUTHS TRAIL PIGEON IN RANSOM PROBE Bird Carrying Demand of Kidnapers Followed by Airmen to Barn. By United Press NEW YORK, Sept. I.—One of the strangest clews on record—that offered by a homing pigeon in flight —has led two aerial policemen on a trail that may solve a kidnaping. Several days ago Edgar F. Hazleton, former district attorney of Queens, reported his son, Edgar F. Hazleton Jr., missing, and revealed he had received demands for ransome, ranging from $2,500 to $25,000. Hazleton was instructed to tie the money to the feet of a homing pigeon and release the pigeon. The pigeon was delivered to him by the alleged kidnapers. Monday Allen Van Hagen and Arthur Kafka, air patrolmen, followed in a police department plane while a homing pigeon, one of those referred to in the ransom letters, led them to a roost in the rear of a house in Flushing, occupied by Charles KoffPT’TIJIpV Roost With 25 Others Zooming low over the area, Van Hagen and Kafka attracted the attention of Patrolman John Shea and endeavored to signal him to go to Kofernack’s house. Shea could not understand them. The flying sleuths then drew a map and wrote instructions on a piece of paper, attached it to a small handbag, and dropped it to Inspector John Gallagher. Accompanied by a squad, Gallagher visited the Kofernack residence and found the bird in the pigeon roost along with about twenty-five others. Leases Building of Owner Kofernack said he did not know any of the birds and that they belonged to a man who rented the roost for $lO a month. He was unable to give the man’s name, but said the stranger came to the ho”- 7 every night in a small green sedan. He described the man and police posted a guard at the house. The pigeon was one of two found as Hazleton had been directed in a bird shop. It was revealed the officers made a previous attempt to follow another bird found in the shop but were unsuccessful.

SIR HALL CAINE; AUTHOR, DEAD Famed Novelist and Dramatist Loses Last Battle. By United Press RAMSAY, Isle of Man. Sept. I. The Isle of Man mourned today the passing of its most famous son, Sir Hall Caine, novelist and dramatist, who died at Greba castle, his home, Monday night. Sir Hall lived at the castle with his family as a small boy. Scenes from many of his writings were taken from the picturesque surroundings in which he grew to manhood. Lung congestion caused the novelist’s death after several days of a vain battle for recovery. Sir Hall died before finishing his “Life of Christ,” considered an outstanding literary effort when he was forced to abandon work on it a year ago. Sir Hall’s wife and two sons were at his bedside when he died at 10:55 Ip. m. He was born at Runcon, ; Cheshire, but was taken to the Isle of Man as a boy. 61,000 Disabled Are Jobless WASHINGTON, Sept.
