What’s the
Answer to a National Question:
Prohibition Force Accomplishing?
\VASIITNGTON. June 12.—-I“t‘om
all directions officials here are heur-
lng the complaint: “This section is
overrun with bootleggcra and wnl~
lowing in liquor. What is the prohibi-
tiott enforcement. force doing?"
And what is Uncle Sam's probi-
bltion enforcement staff doing?
A study of prohibition department
reports gives these figures for last
year (flrurcs to. this year are not
amilablc):
More titan $200 ships and boats
were captured while engaged in the
illegal transport of liquor and more
than 5.000 automobiles. chr 10,000
illicit distilleries were uncovered.
The seizures of distilled liquors
amounted to more than 1,500,000
gallons, and of malt to more than
5,000,000 gallons. \‘i’ltich indicates
that the dry staff, with its limited
force and ambiguous duties. is ruth-
er busy.
The available figures are not com-
prehensive. So far as any statistics
can. they show just what has been
done by the federal authorities
charged with the. enforcement of‘the
national prohibition act. which took
effect Jan. 16, 1920. But they do not
show how far that enforcement work
has been effective in stopping the
manufacture and sale of liquor. be-
cause they are not comparative fig-
ures. They record only unsuccessful
violation of the law. The successful
violation eludes them. Of the extent
of that no one has ally exact. or
even approximate. knowledge.
547.000.000 Property Seized.
Three groups of federal oillcers
are engaged directly in the work of
prohibition enforcement. They are
the coast guard, the prohibition unit,
and, to a minor extent, the customs
service.
Figures covering the widest. field
are obtainable from the prohibition
unit, which has kept check on all
its seizures since the V0 stead law
became effective. At the close of the
last fiscal year. June 30. 1924. the
total appraised value of all proper-
ty which had been seized in the four
years and a half was 337.032.334.82,
and the estimated total to date is
put .at approximately $47,000,000.
Since Jan. 17. 1020, the prohibition
unit has seized 4.564.257 gallons of
distilled liquors and 20,971,512 gal-
lons of malt notables.
That prohibition enforcement on
land has tightened up during the,
last three years may be indicated
by the constantly increasing volume
of distilled liquor seizures. which
were respectively 457,365 gallons in
1923 .and nearly four times that
amount, or 1.672.744 gallons. in
1025. On the, other hand. it may be
possible that the amount of liquor
in circulation has increased and the
proportion of it seized remained
more or less constant.
The prohibition unit reports‘ its

months). 1,027,433; 1021. 4.963.003;
1922. 4.187.625; 10:3. 4.803.373;
1924, 5,370 528. This ycpr molt liq-
uors are being seized in about the
same quantities as last.
The yearly total of
seized by the prohibition tznit. in-
creased from 209 in 1920 to 5,214 in
1924. The number of arrests has iti-
so monnttrtl steadily. The figures are:

NEW YORK WOMEN DISCUSS
STATEMENT THAT MARRIAGE
BONDS SHOULD BE ABOLlSli
ED
Some Do Not Understand Utterance By Dr.
Margaret Daniels
at Conference of Na-
tional Woman’s Party Because She Never
Wed—Is Psycho-AnalystwAsk: Do Men
And Women Want to Be Free? -
By EDNA DIARSHALD
Special Correspondent of
The Evening Sentinel.
(Copyright. 1925.)
NEW YORK, June 12.—-—Dr. Mar-
garet ‘Daniels' theories on the futil-
ity of marriage, with which she
startled the mid-Western Conference
of the National Women's Party at
Detroit Tuesday. are based entirely
on outside observation, her friends
here declared today. She herself
has never tested the bonds of matri-
away.
They admit that in her practice as
a psycho-analyst she doubtless has
run across many couples who never
should have married. But even her
stanchcst supporters are wondering
if she didn’t. go too far when site
was quoted as saying:
“Marriage and home should be
abolished: hinting should be free
and children reared by the State.”
“It is true." one of her greatest
admirers said Tuesday. "that if mar-
riage were obllished, there would be
no unhappy marriages. and. if men
and women had no responsibilities
to loved ones or a. home. they would
be free to do their work with all
thélr energy. And. maybe that
would be fine for the work of the
world. But how many men and we-
men are there who want to be free
of love bonds. who don't. want any
ties that. speak of home. and rest
and affection to hold them? Dr. Dan-
leis sees clearly enough. That might
work out in theory. But people just
aren't made that way."
A slight. dark haired woman.
some thirty-five years old. is Dr.
Daniels. She is very intense. will go
to almost any end to help a cause in
which she believes. and her chief
tenet for years has been the.equal-
lty of women with men and the need
for their independence.
Only recently she was an instruct-
or ln the University of Chicago. from
which she took her degree as Doc- -
for lot Philosophy. Since she came
to New York she has acquired a
large clientele as a. psycho-analyst.
A few months back she espoused the
cause of the Women's Party. which
molntalns just one plant—equality
—and has since thrown her heart
and soul into the work.
On June 17 she will call for Eur.
ope to study for the summer under
Dr. Sigmund Freud. professor of Ne-
crology at Vienna. University.
And there may lie the secret.
one women said:
“It may be too much Freud. She
may be taking Freud and his ludi-
vlduallstic doctrines' too seriously.

put into effect it would make a ghost.-
ly world.”
And still there have been others
who have said as Dr. Daniels is said
to have done itt Detroit:
“Community life is
the borne life today. Fathers and
mothers. daughters and sons, all
have their own interests, their clubs
and societies. The movies and auto.
mobiles are taking people ottt of the
home. So why not face the facts?
The old fashioned home bus almost
vanished. Community homes and
community kitchens would 'sztvo a
woman labor. enable her to live her
own life and free her from bondage.
The State would care for the chil-
dren. A society in which men and
women would mate freely and in
which women would be economical-
ly independent would be healthy."
The question is, is it true?"
