Washington bootleggers have in-
traduced the “smoke screen" auto-
mobile as a counter-weapon against
the Jones-Stalker law and the an-
nounced intention of law enfotcement
officials to make the capital a dry
town.
The result is that Washington eops
ora having their worst days and thst
some of the most bittar debates in ths
history of prohibition are raging in
eongress.
The city reeks with thrills as boot-
loggers disappear these dsys in huge
elouds of suffoesting smoke which,
often contains mustard and red pep-

case, the police fire blindly into the
smoke screen in hopes sf winging

A Dangerous Game
it’s a game full of danger for any
one who happens to be near, as well
as the bootleggers and the eops.

About two weeks ago, after a series

11th precinct ordered his mon fo."rid

Police Kill Youth
A few dsys later, about 3 a. m. two
of his policemen chased a car over
the Anacoctla bridge. The exhaust of
the pursued machine began to belch
smoke. The police fired five shots
and the fifth hit 21-year-old Hermon
Fleming in the hood, hilling him in-
stsntly, as ths blinding smoks spread
in a great blankst almost the length
of the bridge.
