Russian Mothers, Mad
dened By Famine, Cut
Throats of Their Babes
Riga.—The first official report of
cannibalism in the famine district of
Russia has been made to the all-Rus
aian soviet congress bv Delegate Q»si
enko. of Samara, according to a dis
patch to tboofficial Rotso news ageneyv
dated Moscow.
Ovsieuko told-'the congress: “It is
dangerous to bury the famine victims
is the* presence of the people, and
guards-must be kept over them until
the? are in a state that mattes- eating
Impossible.” *
Ovsienko said that Dr. Fridtjof Nan
sen. hiurh commissioner of the inter
national committee of Russian relief,
even though a hardened explorer, re
turned te Moscow sickened by the
soene9 he witnessed iD the stricken
districts. The speaker said that chil
dren are being taken to the fteppes
and left there to die; that mothers,
maddened by their experiences, cut
the throats of their babes.
At the beginning of January, con
tinued Orsienko, the soviets, with all
their outside-aid,--will be able to feed
only-half of -ftho- starving children aDd
oflly - one-twentieth ol the adults. The
rest-of the people would have to die
while awaiting help.
An old-timer, writing from New
York, says the '“wild and woolly West”
:s not in it with the East for lawless
ness, The operations of the lawless
el e men t,have been reduceckt© a scienee
and conditions-appear to be growing
worse-daily*. Be says, if one is so for
tunate as to- escape^ the thugs of" the
streets, it is a safe bet some auto ban
dit will get you into his car- and dump
you into a ditch with your head
head smashed and your pockets rifled.
The West, he says, is fully one hun
dred years behind New York in eriaa
*oal activities.—Nenana News.

Sale of Beer Ingredi
ents, Says Judge, Vio
lation of Volstead Act
Detroit.—Disappearance Thursday of
bottle caps, patent stoppers, seating;
i tools and other articles used in the
manufacture of home brew from the
loounters of certain downtown stores,
•rbere they formerly were sold in large
quantities, marks the first definite re
sult of Federal Prohibition Commis
sioner James EL Davis’ announcement
that he will proceed to- put dealers in
home brew supplies out of business.
Davis’ ADoouDcemeol follows a ruling
of Judge Tuttle in a Grand Rapids case
that the sale of anv article entering
into tbe manufacture of beer contain
iBg more than one- half of one per cent
alcohol is a violation of the Volstead
act, providing the sale was miide with
the knowledge that the articles were to
be so used. Davis construes this deci
sion to apply to all sales of malt, hops,
yeast and other beer ingredients, as
well as to caps, stoppers and bottles.
In bis ruling Judge Tuttle saidi
“Even a single sale of sugar by a
grocer would be a violation if the
grocer had reason to believe it was to
be used in the manufacture of bever
ages containing more than the legal
limit of alcohol.'*
Despite the action of the downtown
stores, the various neighborhood em
poriums for the sale of malt and hops
were doing, a rushing business Friday
night. All of them were conspicuously
placarded*with signs announcing that
they would refuse to sell to persons who
wished to< make intoxicating liquors.
“Michigan now will be a bootlegger’s
paradise. Judge Tuttle’s recent sen
tence of a man in Grand' Rapids for
selling home brew ingredients, followed
by the statement of James B. Davis
that he is going to shut off the supply
of this material, is merely another
ehapterof this prohibition joke. Boot
legging and moonshining now will be
more popular and profitable than
ever,” Robert D. Wardell, secretary of
the Michigan division of the Associa
tion Against the Prohibition Amend
ment, said in connection w-ith Davis’
announcement
