EMPLOYEES TAKE I CAPTURED BOOZE Washington, Oct. 2.?Charges that "certain representatives of the de- t partment of justice" converted to I their own use liquor seized here in ii the enforcement of prohibition laws t were made in a special report filed u today by the District of Columbia ii grand jury. The report asserted that the liquor it was removed from the warehouse c used by the department for storage s purposes and was used by the of- c ficials involved for their private con- p sumption, for distribution to personal c friends and as gifts to favored in- E stitutions. There was no charge that tl any of the liquor was disposed of for \ financial gain. * e Illegal withdrawals covered in the w report were declared to have occurred between July 20.and September 11, s 1920. The jury did not name the in- p dividuals who were involved, but de- tl clarecH that their eonduet can not "be a too severely condemned." K At the department of justice of- u ficials indicated that no action was in prospect since the offense complained e of were "by former attaches of a c former administration of the depart- tl ment." William J. Burns, chief of n the department's bureau of investiga- q tion, confirmed theat large stocks of c, liquor held in the custody of tta de- tj partment had "disappeared" betwee.i ^ the dates mentioned in the grand jury ? report. i, The first intimation of such a situation, Mr. Burns said, came to him ,< when counsel for a defendant in a R liquor case which had lapsed under j, the statute of limitations, filed claim ?, for return of the several cases of whiskey. |( Mr. Burns said he ordered that the ^ property be returned at once and g( then learned that it was no longer in a the warehouse. An inquiry was in- ? stituted and the result voluntarily submitted to the grand jury, accord- jj ing to M*. Bums. " p Officials of the department esti- t| mate that "several hundred cases of {assorted liquois were removed illegal- a ly from the department's evidence 0 cache. The value was placed at up ^ wards of $100,000 by D. T. Wrigh'.. p counsel for Frank Bwnch, <me -of the ^ interested owners. Mr. Wright recently filed suit against Frank Burke.

The suit R is now pending in a local court, according to Mr. Wright. ^ A record of the withdrawals show- n ing the alleged signature of the do- t partment of justice officials who ?. vouched for the removal in each case c was obtained by a private detective, , according to Mr. Wright, as was also t a detailed report ctn the places and j persons to whom delivery was made r after the liquor was taken from the ^ local warehouse.

Washington, Oct. 2.?While it has een the boast of the Anti-Saloon so ^eague that John Barleycorn ia dead, pc t is a significant fact that in flva of f*> he most important states of the ro nion he will be more or less an issue ce n the elections slated for November, th In each instance, furthermore, it i the Democratic party which advo- nc ate8 relaxation from Volstead re- m trictions. In New York, the Demoratic convention adopted a "damp lank." In New Jersey, the Demo- ur ratic senatorial candidate, Governor Edwards, is "wet." In Massachusetts m he party stands for amending the ^olstead act. In Missouri, Senator c0 Reed, Democrat, declares in favor of w< fine and beer. The Republican party, in each intance, with possibly one exception. lays politics. It apparently knows he power of an organized, well finnced binority to overcove an unor *K anized majority which has no treas- en ryIn New York, all Democratic and Republican candidates are "wet." ex lov. Miller is no more convinced of he wisdom of Volsteadism than forler Governor Smith. And Senator ' '-alder is no more "dry" than his ompetitor, Mr. Copeland. The only ifference is that the Democratic can- , idates are declaring themselves, . . to bile the Renublicans are maintain ig a cautious quiet. In New Jersey, Governor Edwards > openly toiling the people that Volteadism has made the nation one of iwbre'akers. Senator Frelinghuy- ^ en. en the contrary, after admitting 1 . hat his cellar is stocked with excel on >nt wines and liquors, preaches the lory of prohibition. In Massachu- ca etts the Democrats demand wine ^ nd beer. Senator Lodge, always wj v. et," is talcing no position. as In Missouri, Senator Reed declares f)a iiat he voted against constitutional j rohibition because he believed that ot, he issue was one for settlement by he states; apd he advocates an ar mendment of the Volstead act. His j pponent, R. R. Brewster, declares imself, "powder dry" and challenges leed to debate the prohibition quesIon as issue of the day. There is an unique situation in )hio. The Democratic senatorial <anlidate, Atlee Pomerene, was too able ^ i man to have been demagogic or falatical on the liquor question when t was a real issue. And today he is ^ oo able to contend that as prohibi- , ion is the law of the land, the law j hould not be observed. ^ In view of these facts, he is listed ^ iy the Anti-Saloon league politicians is 'satisfactory." At the same time ^ hese politicians are grouping them ^ elves behind S. I). Fess, Republican ^ andidate, who has always been a irofessional "dry." Democrats, furhermore, are held by the Anti-Saloon eague as responsible for the sub w nission to voters of a referendum on SJ he liquor question. ' flJ The Anti-Saloon league which naintains its expensive headquarters t.j n Washington, is very alert to the w lituation, and the assistance it renlers will tend to handicap Democrats, f, rhe league is as well financed as ever, t is apparent. P The situation is very much like the ituation in 1920. Both Governor e: }ox and Senator Harding were "wet." Jut the Anti-Saloon elague threw its a nfluence to Harding. William Jenlings Bryan "knified" the Democrat- 3 c ticket the day it was nominated, alhough he knew that the oposition p, ;icket was just as "wet." And wih the consent and approval S >f President Harding, the govem>f the United Stetes ;h irs th~ liquor v >usiness, and above the heads of its >artenders, flaps the flag of the Unit- p id States. There is no bootlegging more con- p :emptuouB of the spirit of the conititution, than this administration p .vhich for purely flnanclal reasons, tells liquor on its passenger vessels, b Funeral of Dr. Thomas h This Afternoon ( The funeral of Dr. A.

I * LUES WILL REJECT PROPOSALS Constantinople, Oct. 2 (By the Aseiated Press).?The Kemalist pro).suls, which will be laid formally here the Mudania conference tomorw, are "discussable, but not acptable.' This was the decision of e extraordinary council, which met the. British embassy this afte*-K>n. It included the allied high comissionera, ambassadors, generals and Imirals. M. Franklin Bouillon, the French ivoy, through whose etforts with emal Pasha the conference was ade possible, expressed his confi nt belief to the Associated Press rrespondent that an agreement mild be reached tomorrow at Mu,nia. "Kemal will make a greater effort r peace than he has made for war," ! said. Two of the most important ques>ns to be discussed at the conferee will be demarcation of a ne\v utral zone on the Asiatic shores of e Dardanelles and at Ismid, and the acuation ot inrace. The allies hold that Kemal's ueands as outlined by M. Franklinlillon are of such a nature that the ngora assembly would thereafter n?* u position to reject the allied nolo, emal Pasha insists on settlement ot I military uestions before replying the allied proposals. He and ?oui the ministers at Smyrna accepted e allied note in principle but the titude of the Angora assembly is t known. It was decided this evening that e armistice conference must take ace ashore at Mudania. instead of one of the allied ships. This dedon was reached principally bouse the allies were unable to agree en on such a minor question as to hich should hove the honor of acting host of the conference. Each, apirently, feared that the holding of i conference aboard one of the her's ships, would give that nation distinct advantage in the session id in the report of that session hich would reach the outside worid.
