Federal Authorities Intervene When stat o and Ijocal Full.*' Washington, Nov. 25.-Enforce ment of constitutional prohibition will be placed squarely up to State and municipal authorities, and the Federal government machinery wljjj not intervene until obvious Inefficient cy on tho part of local ofllcials inaRes* such action necessary, tho board of tempor?neo of tho Methodist church was told to-day here by John F. Kramer, Federal prohibition, com missioner. lt was Mr. Kramer's first pro nouncement of policy since he as sumed oillce a week ago. Mr. Kramer said the people of the country could be divided ?u two classes. ?> "Heretofore the line of demarca tion has been between those who favored tho prohibition of the liquor trafile and those who opposed it," ho said. "From now on the line ot demarcation will be botween those who are la favor obeying the law, whether their personal views aro in harmony with the law or not, and those who will be ready and anxious to violate the law." Describing the machinery being set up for the enforcement of prohibition luws, Mr. Kramer said: "Tho first step will be with the various State inspectors. They will keep themselves Informed as to con ditions in their States and will re port to tho State Federal director, who will investigate and report to the district Federal agent, who will use his forces to investigate and ar rest if evidence warrants. One of the chief duties of tho State Federal director will be to enlist the aid of all State officers. Ho will also en deavor to secure the backing and support, of all civic, moral and re ligious bodies." Affirming bis belief that the great mass of the American people were at heart law-abiding, tho prohibition chief declared that ".this fact will tell mightily in the matter of getting results from the law." He declared that local authorities should be "jealous of their rights of enforce ment and zealous in the performance of their duty." "The highest success will be at tained only if tho great mass of law abiding people make their influence and power felt," Mr. Kramer said. "Obedience to law should be taught from every school room, preached from every pulpit, urged lrom every platform." 112 Millner-s' used last year* to KILL COLDS HILL'S CASCAB/?QWNINI SRWn* 1 Standard cold remedy for 20 year? -In tablet form-tafe, ?ure, no opiates-breaks up a cold in 24 hours-rellevea grip in 3 days.

Columbia, Nov. 25.-That South Carolina has no petroleum In its rock beds, and that prospectors who are Investing their money digging oil well's in tho State are throwing money to the winds, is the opinion of Stephen Taber, State Geologist and head of the department of geology at tho University of South Carolina. Prospecting for oil has been car ried on in several parts of the State in the past few months, and these cases have shown that there is no oil. The State ecologist says South Carolina's rock strata are not tho oil producing kind, especially the rock beds in the Piedmont section. "Oil has never been found in com mercial quantities in old crystalline rocks, such as tho gneisses and schists which occur throughout the Piedmont section of the State, and from what geologists" have learned concerning the origin and accumu lation of oil in rocks it is hopeless to search for oil in these forma tions," Prof. Taber says.
