Riondo Fumisoni of the propaganda of the faith called the attention of the world sharply to the problem of the Zionist domination of Palestine under the British mandate.

MOPPIVGUP PHASE OF MODNSHIE WAR Campaigns Against lllicit Stills in Southern Mountains Near Eomplete Success. Special Dispatch to The Star. BRISTOL, Tenn.. July 4—The war against the moonshiners of the moun- Y tain country extending from the Cumberlands of Kentucky to the Smokies of North Carolina, today en- tered the third, or mopping-up, phase. with the advantage entirely on the side af the prohibition enforcement officers. It is a quiet but very serious little war. Little is heard of it out- de of the immediate localities in progr But if it omplete victory for the as mow seems probable “white ‘mule’” industry of this se tion will have been hit a serious, if not fatal, blow.- And although quiet, 80 far as outward demonstrations are copcerned, there has been a deadly ferocity about the fighting that could be found only among men of the fearless character of those on both sides. The mountaineer has uséd his guns, pistols and knives freely to maintain what he considers his absolute right | the product of his corn | to dispose o flelds as he thinks best, while the trained officers of the law, sheriffs nd deputies, have backed up the im- ported prohibition officials in a man- ner that has brought from the latter words of highest praise Alrplanes as Pllots. There has been a great difference from the nid-time method of moon- shine hunting.. The long-barrelled squirrel rifles have been abandoned. In their place high-powered repeating rifles—in many cases some originally designed to arm the American soi- diers in France—have been used. Au- tomatic s are substituted for " and even ma- the chine guns, have been pressed i the attacker: The airplanes have been used to spy out stills, the pilots ving an observer equipped with powered ficldglasses, and the machine guns have been used by the raiders to spray the heavily wooded slopes from which the owners of Btills have tried to pick off their rst stage found the moon- shiners openly plying their trade and shipping thousands of gallons of their product almost without hindrance to northern distributing sections, using high-powered automobiles for that purpose. The second came two months azo. when a selected force of enforcement officials called upen the various mountain sheriffs to assist them in wiping out industry. Since then there have been fre The officers and 3 ame cisive and mighty Every factor and fichter available engaged in the fray. The hills became a bloody battle ground. The jails began to be crowded with prisoners, many of them caught red-handed at their un- derground stiils. The average block- ader has many of the qualities and instincts of the bulldog. and it re- quired a crushing defeat to convince him that he could not keep operating. Enforcement Sentiment Grows. Today the officers are mopping up. They are bringing in the demolished stills to the various county seats, be- cause to leave them behind would mean their repair as soon as the and like mountains were vacated. If the moun- | talneers had any organization they might even now win out. as there are many spots in the mountains that are inaccessible except to those com- pletely familiar with the blind trails hat lead to them. But they are not, and the sentiment of the communities now is mostly with the enforcement officials. A few of the more prudent moon- shiners have auit, hidden their stills, and are ready to live on the money salted away when the game was good, The great majoritv, however, had spent practically their all to equip themselves with modern stills and the like. These are the men now being put out of business. It is not hard nowadays to buy machinery to make whisky at a figure less than half the original cost. But there is no mar- ket. The raiders have seen to that. Meanwhile, the mountaineers are waliting. If the mopping up is com- plete, the making of whisky here is at an end If the enforcement offi- clals stop before the work is fully completed and abandon. the fleld, the placid stream of white lightning will resume its trickling down the gullies from the mountains and soom will wash away every sign of the early victory won by the law enforcement officials, because laxity now by the imported officlals will have a de- pressing effect on the local officials Who have assisted them in the work.

By the Associated Press, _QUINCY, 1iL, July 4. —Seventeen former track laborers of the twenty- nine accused of murder in connection with the slaying of Sheriff Edward Lashbrook of Schuyler county, were | santenced to serve the statutory term i for manslaughter—one year to lite—| in court here yesterday. They were found guilty Saturday night. | Ten men were granted new trials and two freed of the Lashbrook mur- der charge. Murder charges stand against all of them, however, in con- n ion with the slaying of two dep- uty sheriffs. ‘The killings occurred at Fredericks, 1IL, on April 28, when the sheriff and his men approached the car shanties of the laborers in nn effort to pro-{ tect them from attacks of another group of men who had been threat- ening them. TACNA CORFERENGE HIGES ON LY Optimism Prevails - Despite | _Reports From Peru—Dele- gates Observe Fourth. By the Associated Press. The Chilean and Peruvian repre- sentatives in the Tacna-Arica conler-‘ ence here joined with the American the deciding not people today in observance of Fourth of July holida to resume their discussions until to- morrow even should the anxiously awaited Peruvian reply to the Ameri- can compromise proposal reach Wash- ington. That the final verdict of the Lima government regarding’ the American plan would be recefved during the | day was not considered unlikely, how- |ever. and it was indicated that a joint meeting of the two delegations might be arranged for tomorrow, when the €hilean plenipotentiaries, who already have accepted, return from a visit to the seashore. Reply Still fn Doubt. It still was uncertain today whether the Peruvian answer would be an ac- ceptance or a rejection, but official opinion_appeared to incline to opti- mism, in_spite of clear indications that the first reception of the Ameri- can proposal in Lima had not been favorable. In both the Chilean and Peruvian groups it was predicted that after a thorough canvass of all the considerations involved the govern- ment would decide to return an af- firmative reply. . By some it was suggested that such a decision might be made with the reservation that in case no plebiscite | was held in Tacna-Arica, the direct negotioaions which Chile and Peru would undertake under the American formula should be conducted in Washington, in another conference similar to the present one. Gives U. S. Chance. That method of procedure, it was said, might give the United States opportunity to exercise its moral i fluence in the direction of a fair settlement. In any case the Peruvian reply is expected generally to bring the Washington negotiations quickly to an end, one way or the other. Should a rejection be decided on, a final deadlock generally is forecast by those in touch with the temper of the two delegations, while an ac- ceptance would be followed, it is! i €aid, by a prompt signature of a final agreement.
