“PAGES “~ BOOZE DEMANDS UNITED EFFORTS Governors Appealed to by United | States Revenue Commissioner Roper MOONSHINE TRAFFIC GAINS Federal Official Asks That State Agents Co-operate With the Government Men. Washington, Jan. 25.—An appeal to governors and members of congress} to support a nation wide campaign against illicit liquor distillers was pre-; pared Thursday by Internal Revenue Commissioner Roper, whose reports} show “moonshine” traffic increasing rapidly. The campaign will be di- rected against southern dry states, where the location of most of the mil-; itary camps has added a special rea- son for the cleanup movement. Commissioner Roper will ask gov- ernors to furnish state agents to co- operate with government inspectors in putting illegal stills out of busi- ness. The appeal probably will be issued in a few days. In line with the movement to im- prove liquor and vice conditions about military camps, new restricted zone regulations have been prepared by the war department and the department of justice, and will be announced soon. They have been drawn in an effort to make it more difficult for persons who buy liquor and give it .o soldiers to escape penalties of tne law. More severe penalties also may be imposed on soldiers who drink li- quor.. The department of justice today reported that United States attorneys have prosecuted more than six hun- dred of such cases in the past six b) months for violating the barred zone regulations about army camps. Most of the offenders were accused of sell- ing liquor, and in many cases the li- quor was found to be of the moon- i shine variety. Reports of such cases were sent to government revenue agents, who used them as tips on run- ning down the places of manufacture. BLISS DELEGATED | STANDING AGENT AT WAR COUNCIL American Chief of Staff Arrives in Paris to Take Station on i Supreme Council. i amie | | UP TO MINUTE INFORMATION United States Informed Fully in} All Particulars as to the War Washington, Jan. 25.—General Tas- ker. H. Bliss, chief of staff, who ar- , rived in Paris Thursday will represent | the United States army on the su- pre war council. Secretary Faker in so announcing Thursday disclosed that the general is accompanied by high officers of every branch of the ser- vice to advise him about any ques- tions that may arise. General Bliss attended the first meeting of the council and decision to send him back to Europe as a per- manent representative in that body was made because it was recognized that General Pershing’s duties in or- ganizing and commanding the ever in- creasing American expeditionary forces were too great to permit him to undertake the presentation on Am- erican views on military operations and to sit with the council in framing plans of strategy that cover all fronts and all armies. Bliss in Paris No word of the departure of Gen- eral Bliss had been published until the news of his safe arrival came to- day. ‘From General Bliss the war council will obtain an up-to-the-minute report on what the United States will be able to contribute to the operations on the western front this spring and summer. His report in this regard has een forecast to some extent by President Wilsons statement to con- gressional visitors that there would ‘be in Europe in June twice the num- ber of American troops which it had been originally planned to send by that time. General Bliss also can inform his conferees exactly the situation in! which the United States finds itself now as to delivery of supplies of all sorts to the allies and this informa- tion probably will have great weight in the shap{ng of war plans. Vigorous Offensive While Secretary Baker’s statement merely said that General Bliss had ar- rived in France to represent the army on the council, there have been int mations that renewed recommenda- tions for vigorous offensive operations on the widest possible scale were in- cluded in the instructions the general received before sailing. “Probably the primary consideration before the council when it reconven- eg ‘will be the widely advertised pro- posed German offensive on the west- ern front. _ A mass of information has reached the allied powers from many quar- ters indicating an impending drive against the British or French lines, or both, which will be carefully re- viewed. Ways and means to meet such a concentration of German and ‘Austrian forces as is indicated un- doubtedly have been considered. === ‘The German Concentration The possibility suggested by Col. i pe CONTRABAND IN don Post today, that the German con- centration may be ‘to support negot!- ations” rather than for an assault is! in line with views held by some Am- erican officers here They feel that had Germany really intended to make ja great drive they would not have | given advance notice of it and are in- clined to the opinion that the Ger- man high command is endeavoring to set up the bogy of a great attack as {a preliminary to another P The pos y here j that the alli pate the Ger- man attack with a great drive as the } British once did in Flanders.
