SOUNDg-A WARNING

Agents.

Bl’uDGEPORT. June 18.——"There
will be no effective enforcement of
th prohibition law until the enforce-
ment service is taken out of politics.
There has got to be a violent separa-
tion of prohibition from 'patronage."
declared Homer 8. Cummings. states
attorney for Fairfield County at‘a
monster union meeting in the High
School auditorium last night.

"The law cannot remain a matter
of caprlco. All arguments of first of-
fences have disappeared .slld as there
are still persistent violations of
th law it is time to impose jail sen-
ltnccs on trafficers in liquor.

The discordant proceedurs of
courts in various districts was con-
demned by Mr. Cummings. The «x.
tremo variations in the manner of
dealing with of ders were pointed
out; instances bi cited where nine-
ty per cent. of appeals hers Lustain-
d in certain courts and a. like por-
centags cancelled in slmiar cases in
different districts Drug traffic, auto-
mobile thieving and bootiegging were
alike described by Mr. Cummings

 

 

conspiracies and thriving tndustrifi

The meeting was arranged by.tlle
Bridgeport Pastors Association and
Council of Churches for the purpose
of creating and fostering an interest
in "law and order."

The attitude and procedure of the
Bridgeport City court under former
Judge William B. Boardman and Dev
puty Judge Arthur Comley and now
under Judges Ralph T. Beers and
William J. Buckley were praised by
Cummings who recommended that the
people co-operate in make Bridgeport
and Fairfleld County an example of
perfection.

Continuing Mr. Cummings said:

"The cases of violence. you will ob-
serve. are’not limited to the disasters
which overtake the public officials.
The bootleggers war amongst them-
selves.

"Let me call your attention to the
Dcrigibus case. This was a matter of

“'ASHINGTON. June 18. —— Tho
armys new "two-and-half-planer" air

giant. known as the Darling Bomber.
the biggest. thing yet in flying machin-

es. will soon be tested at “Wilbur
\Vrlght Field. Ohio. the war depart-
ment having today announced the
tentative selection of Lieutenants
Leight Wade and Harold, R. Harris as
pilots for the test flight.

“If the performance in flight is sat-
isfactory." the department‘s announce-
ment said. "the air service engineering
divisions, gt»,payton will achiever “tut;
credit of putting in the air the largest
succesful airplane in the world.”

service by Vi’nlter H. Bat-ling.

——¢——‘

The Bar-ling bomber illustrates in
startling fashion‘ how war-making
machines have developed. Back in
1588 the Spanish Armada was con-
sidered a super~flghting machine. It
consisted of about 1:0 ships with a
total tonnage for all of only 59,120
tons.

The new bomber ins a wing spread
of 120 feet. the fuselage is 65 feet long
and 1.0 feet in diameter.

It'will mount m mgchine guns.
capable of being fired from any angle
of the circle and in built to carry a
single 'bornb “handgun pounds.

It is driven by six fill-horsepower
'Liberty motors and it is being put
through a. series of ground tests pre-
liminary to the maiden flight. .

The bomber weighs 40.000 pounds
and two army tractors w needed to
haul it fro'm the hangar in which it
was assembled to the field where it
will be flown.

The new terror of the air is so
large that it was necesmry to apply
the wings out in the open;

It is the general understanding
about W'ilbur “fright Field that upon
the aucccsfui flightof :tho. Darling
will hinge the construction of other
planes along the same. but larger gen-
eral lines. - . .

Escape Arranged Is Belief _ on flaunts of Daugherty
Being Searched in New York City-Qmfion
of Criminality Is Raised.

STAMFORD, Conn, June 18 (Special to the Sentinel).—A sys-
tcmaticscamhisbcingmadolnconnecticut, New Yorkandlassu
chusetts today for Draper H. Daugherty, son of the Attorney Gen-
eral of tin United States who‘ escaped yesterday from Stamford Ball
sanitariumwherehehsdbeenfomallyoommittedforapsriodof
two years by a court order. Every effort was being made, however,
to keep the escape as quiet as possible.

 

 

Stamford police, according to Ber-
gennt Nevins. on deck duty at police
headquax tors, is taking no part in the
search for the missing patient. There
had, been no complaint made to the
police of Daugherty's escape. the ser-
geant said. The number of the closed
car in which he fled was not known
to thd police authorities. nor were
they in any way lnterestud. it was'
said.

At Stamford Hall. Dr. Hennmey.
who is in charge in the absence of
Superintendent Robertson. said over
the telephone: "No1 private detectives
have been at the hospital nor have
any members of the Daugherty (am.
My communicated with us up to noon
today. We have not heard a word
here. All that I know is that to .-

Daugherty made-his escape. 'l'ns ps-
lice brought the car to the 'sanltarim
garage. where it‘ is awaiting a claim-'-
ant. It bore the New York automo'o
bile license number 908.682. Effort!
were being made inNsw York this
afternoon to trace ownership of'th'o
car. Whether this will lead anywhere
is doubtful. Abandoning o! the a?
was doubtless considered in plans for
the escape.

1c is thought by officials of of.
sanatarlum that another machine met.
the escaping patient at a point pre-
viously agreed upon. that he was
transferred to the other car and that
the party then fled over the New York
state line where Daugherty is bclbved
by some to be in hiding.

Whether court authorities we
take any action to probe the onus
appeared .to be uncertain today. \Ua’.
