Atlanta, Ga, Dec., 27—The Yule-
tide is the season of all seasons in
this—the ‘‘Empire State” and the
rest of the land. It is the season of
cheer and happiness, good will and
forgiveness. Yet, according to Fred
Dismuke, of Atlanta, prohibition en
forcement officer for the state of
Georgia, there are people who still
imagine they cannot have a "good
time” unless they have a few bottles
of booze at this sacred season.
Mr. Dismuke says it should n<
necessary to warn people against
drinking the poisonous and danger-
concoctions now being sold under
name of whiskey, but during tbn
holidays the makers ofc the moon
shine and peddlers of the poison are
doubly busy in their efforts to ex
change their death-dealing wares for
the cash of gullible people who are
known to the bootleggers as “easy
And this is a very appropriate name
for people who are willing to ex
change perfectly good and hard-ear
ned money for a rotten mixture of
unknown liquids in order that they
may become sick and put their lives
in jeopardy, say prohibition enforce
ment officers.
"It may seem useless to warn any
body against drinking the stuff,”

LITTLE GIRL FOUND DEAD
IN NEW YORK HOME AND
POLICE SAY MURDER
New York, Dec.TT—Teresa McCar
thy, an 8-year-old Brooklyn girl,
found dead In the bathroom of her
home with a bullet over her heart
when her mother returned last night
after beiug away most of the day.
The mother had left the key to the
house with the child and when she
found the entrance door locked on the
inside, summoned a policeman to force
■n anfrv No weapon was found In
the bouse.
An ambulance surgeon said the child
had been dead about five hours. He
discovered no signs of injury other
than the bullet wound.
The police believed it a case of
der, for the house door was locked on
the inside and there was no revolver
or empty shell found after a careful
search of the premises. The murderer
could have escaped through a window,
it was pointed out
As the child’s mother told her story,
she had gone away yesterday morning,
leaving the key with Teresa, and tell
ing her to keep the door locked and
not to admit any strangers. When
the mother received no response
knocking upon her return last night
she thought the child had gone I
grandmother’s home, a short distance
away. The mother went there
and after being told that the child had
not been seen, returned to her
home and asked a policeman to break
open the door.
Standing beside the child’s body
Cnrly, her white poodle, a “good watch
dog,” as the mother described him,
and the little girl’s oonstant compan
ion.
Teresa wore only a thin night gown
and high black shoes. Powder marks
shoved clearly on the night gown
above the crimson stain over 1
heart, the police said. The flesh
the little girl’s breast also was 1
colored and burned from the flash of
a cartridge fired at close range.

said Mr. Dismuke today, “but as
port after report comes of men blind
ed, crazed, physically ruined and even
killed by indulging in this so-called
whiskey, people should not only be
warned but ths bootlegging murderer
should be stopped. Persons who de
liberately peddle this death-dealing
stuff should be charged with con
spiracy to murder. It is just as much
i to sell a person poisonous booze
take a gun and shoot him to
death.”
Whatever may be said in favor of
taking a little ‘‘nip" of pure whiskey
in pre-prohibition days, temperancs
advocates here assert, there is abso
lutely nothing to be said in favor of
the poison parading under the guise
of whiskey now; but there is every
thing to be said against it.
“Do not spoil the pleasure of yonr
family and friends by poisoning your
self this Yuletide”, is the advice of
Pohibition Officer Dismuke. “The
risk is fmmeasureably too great”

FRANCE GAINS VICTORY
IN REPARATION MATTERS
Paris, Dec. 87 —France gained an
Important victory in the allied repara
tions commission yesterday when the
commission by a vo.e of 3 to 1 declar
ed Germany In voluntary default lu
her wood deliveries for 1922.
France, Belgium and Italy voted In
favor of the declaration, while Great
Britain cast its ballot against It.
The decision of the commission
communicated to the allied govern
ments for their action. It may have
vital effect upon the reparations prob
lem If France can retain the support
of Italy and Belgium when the repara
tions question is discussed at the Jan.
2 meeting of the premiers.
The lone vote cast against It w
the British, who have been opposed
declaring Germany In default In the
tar that such action might have dlsas-
ous effect upon the already precar-
us state of German finance.
France Is considered to have scored
an Important point by reason of the
that the decision was arrived
majority vote. France had been
alone for a long time in the contention
that Germany could be placed in volun-
default by a simple majority vote.
Italy’s support of France in the ballot-
came as a surprise as an lndlca-
that Premier Mussolini is swing-
over to the French side In the re
parations controversy.
Germany has carried out more than
60 per cent, of its schedule of wood
deliveries this year. When the Ger-
experts were before the commis
sion several weeks ago they announc
ed that Germany had been unable to
deliver more than she had and that
the deliveries for 1923 must be greatly
reduced.
There was much comment last night
rer the fact that Great Britain had
declined to vote In favor of declaring
Germany In default. In view of the ap
preaching meeting of the premiers.
Although the deliveries of wood within
themselves are of less Importance than
other matters connected with the rep
arations, the French point out that
yesterday's decision Is of real value to
France’s position on reparations, slnco
it reverses the order of things and
Places Great Britain in an Isolated po
sition on the issue.
Some French observers affected last
night to see in the vote an Indication
that France, Italy and Belgium may
present a united front before Great
Britain upon the questions reparations
