By the Associated Press. - ATLANTA, Ga., September 12.—Back in the recesses of the North Georgia mountains there is at least one man who does not know of the country’s prohibition laws and the penalties for their violation. ’ United States Marshal Louis W.

Could you give me any information about it? If so, please write me, I might be inter- ested in it.” The marshal did not make public the man’s'name and address, but said that he would write him a letter and explain the matter.
