More than 100 drunk-, on persons have been arrested on the streets within the last few days. fifteen citizens have been corralled in a rum ‘ring roundup and scores of arrests have been made in a fash- ionable hotel roof garden dancing places. The rum wave has spread such alarm that police and detectives . have been made United States depu- tics so that they can begin—accord- , ing to announcement today—"A big drive to dry up \Vashington." . Tuxedoed agents with stiff starch- cd shirts and diamond studs haunt the exclusive dancing restaurants nightly and “arrest young boys and girls with hip flasks filled with gin." Scores have been taken, out most of them were released because of faulty arrest, or they forfeited col- lateral without going to trial. Six private apartment homes have been raided recently and men and: Women charged with possession and . sale of liquor. f Only a few bootlcggers themselves have been taken and the drive is drinkers, rather than purveyors. The fifteen citizens were taken in connection with an alleged conspir- acy to bring imported liquors from Florida and are under bond await- ing trial on indictments returned at Tampa. ; One hundred “drunks" were in1 police court last Monday morning. the haul of Saturday night and Sun- day.

The drive will start within a month or six weeks. and will continue until the rum runner's flag is swept from the sea. . One of the features of the drive will be picketing. it is said. Each liquor boat will be trailed by two speedy seventy-five foot Chasers.
