This he said, would virtually take the heart out of the law Mr. Danalier stated that the trou- ble with the law is with its adminis- tration and that undoubtedly some revisions are advisable. But he was of the opinion that the extent of the revisions could be determined only by jolnt meetings and an ultimate compromise between employers and representatives of the unions. Mr Danaher said that several informal th meetings had already been held of | representatives of employers and em- ployes, but that'no joint agreement has yet been made. He admitied that the administration of the law at present places undue burdens on a number of manufacturers, and als: makes it Increasingly difficult for partially disabled men to get work He thought the law should be modifled to eliminate this condition.

HOONSHINE VALLEY SCENE OF RATDING 25 Federal Agents Make Clean- Up in Rhode Island Proyidence, R. I. Dec. 21 (P— Descending upon “Moonshine Val- ley,”” Central Ialls, this morning, a force of 25 eral prohibition agents from three states, under command of Chief Raiding Officer Harry W. Kendall and Prohibition Administrator Henry D. Goodenough staged the biggest raid in the liquor annals of Rhode Island. In six places visited, they seized 16 large stills, between 1,000 and 2,000 gale lons of moonshine liquor, about 2 000 gallons of mash and a la quantity of other articles used moonshiners. Five men and one woman wgre arrested. Four of the men and the woman are charged with illegal manufacture and possession of liquor. The other man, a Brockton Mass., resident, whose automobile in the yard of one of the places raided, was found to’ contain a large quantity of alleged moonshine liquor, in cans, is charged with il- legal possession and transportation. Although the Central Falls police department had been notified of the impending raids, the prohibition of« ficials said, not a patrolman or oth« er police officer in uniform was in the vicinity when the raids took place. Large numbers of residents of “Moonshine Valley” gathered about the streets and at times ap- peared threatening. They wera warned, however, that the federal agents were prepared to use their guns in suppressing any disturbance and contented themselves with watching the progress of the raids, e by May we suggest for your approval thought and selection on the part of the gi years the name of Porter & Dyson has al associated with individuality.
