Raleigh, Oct. 4.—For the first time
in 27 years, county law enforcement
officers are now actually welcoming
the assistance of Federal revenue
agents. Not only are the county law
enforcement officers in most of the
17 counties which now have liquor
stores and county liquor control work
ing in full cooperation with the Fed
eral “G.Men” in making raids on il
licit distilleries and bootleggers, but
in some cases the county officers are
actually asking the Federal agents to
come into their counties and assist
them, according to officials of the
Alcohol Tax Unit.
It was indicated that no invitations
had been received by the “T-Men”
from officers in so-called “dry” coun
ties to help them enforce the state’s
somewhat moth-eaten and out-of
date “dry” law, the Turlington Act.
All of the requests for cooperation
and assistance have come from the
law enforcement officers in the “wet”
counties where liquor is now being
sold legally in county liquor stores.
Some of the “wet” counties have
even employed special enforcement
officers and investigators who have
been devoting their entire time to
working up evidence against violators
of the county laws against manufac
ture and sale of bootleg liquor, it was
pointed out. Halifax county recently
appointed a special enforcement
agent and gave him the services of
two detectives. This ageni in turn se
cured the cooperation of the Federal
revenue agents and in one day re

Utaly hurled 100,000 soldiers at
Aduwa in northern most Ethiopia to

victory in 1896, was imminent.
The harried Ras Segoum, defending

couldn’t hold out much longer.
The war of Italy in Ethiopia launch

thrusting sharply into Ethiopia on
three fronts. They announced as im

The losses appeared to have been
predominantly Ethiopian. One uncon
