JUNE 12, 1923 CO AT IT HONESTLY In this way Mayor Dylan of New York tells Federal Prohibition Hi rector Canfield to go about law en forcement and *"° st°!> l fiaor at the port °f entry. The Associated" I*, ess reports t*ic Mayor a s'*y nt£: *‘Enforcenjcrt of tV*» v Istea act is your job in th-s lotwMy., ssuA the mayor’s letter. “.*> pd you should go at it honestly. Co not t y to shift tile burden on the shoul oo- of any body else. Do not rip open the feath er-bed and let the feathers be strewn to the seven winds and then expect the peace officers to fro an.! gather in the feathers. Keep the feather bed intact. Stop the liquor from coming in at the port of entry so that the peace officers of any lo cality will not have to go for the little violator. Get the hooch and rum runner The people of this country are sick and tired of being humbugged. They have been horn Swaggled’ more On the enforcement of this law than any other law that ever was placed on the federal stat ute books." Mayor Hylan launched a bitter attack on Wm. H. Anderson, state superintendent of the Anti-Saloon League declaring that if he ‘‘ana a few others of his kind who, of course, need the salary which they derive from contributions paid in by well intentioned people” who would give their aid to the federal author ities In stopping liquor at its source, the people would get an honest en forcement of the Volstead net. “But of course,” said the lettci “we realize that if liquor was stop ped at the port of entry and we had an honest enforcement there would be no more contributions coming in to the -suffers of these private or ganizatins and' 'Anderson and a fev. others of his kind would not be con tinued longer on the pay roll. Conse quently it may be advantageous to al'ow liquor to seen in along the At lantic coast and the Canadian bor der ” Mayor Dylan said his letter wa in reply to one he had received yes terday from Director Canfield which was evidently for oubHc consump tion in an endeavor to -shift-the bur den of the cngorcemetit of the fed eral law from your shoulders, where it rightly belongs, to the sh ,ulderr of others.” Director Canfield yesterday wrote the mayor thanking him for his as surances of co-operation from local police and pointing out that failure to enforce the prohibiion law would stimulate and promote other crimes. “It is not only a mtter of helping the government,” wrote Mr. Canfield “but of helping yourself. Law de fiance is highly contageous, and the weakening point of law enforcement at one point weakens the entire structure.” Mayor Hylan’s letter today con eluded with an appeal for “common sense” enforcement and declared un less liquor was prevented from coining into the country there could be no honest enforcement of the Volstead act. ————o WANTED—THE OLDEST CITIZEN Miss Mary Ann Abel, who is at present writing the early history of Rockingham county wants to get in touch with the oldest Rocking ham county citizen.

F. Mebaae JUDGE HARRIS, SISTER HOSTESS RECEIVES GUESTS One of the most interesting ana loveliest events of the season was a reception given Jjy Mrs. B. Frank Mebane at her lovely old historic home, Saturday afternoon, in honor of Madame Jonnesco of Koumania, sister-in-law of the Prime Minister to Belgium and Holland and sister in-law of the Prime Minister of Koumania, Take Jonnesco. Madame Jonnesco is a representative of Queen Marie of Roumania, also, a distinguished and talented author who in collaboration with Queen Marie wrote a wonderful book on Byzantine Art. Several hundred of Mrs. Mebane's North Carolina friends were present ■ nil ha! Ihe opportunity of meet ing the distinguished visitor an hearing her give her charming lec lure on Byzantine Art Madame Jon nosco was very charming and gra - •«««' in her manner nod made -f •rofound and lu ting impression up a all. She was very winsome in her Vatii nal costume which is very e aril artistic. Min n:ought greetings t° Ameri "n flora Her Majesty, Queen Marie ■if Koumania. This me sage was so hara. tcristie of Queen Marie's love and devotion to America and her people, that I can not refrain from quoting her message. “ A Greeting to my far-off friends of Great America. Although far, I am with them this evening. May they find in this book about Roumania, all sacred thoughts and pity for those who suffer which binds my heart to the great, warm and un derstanding Heart of America ” (Signed) Marie, Queen of Rouman in. Madame Jonnesco's tribute to America wrs a beautiful one, coming straight from her heart which is filled with love for Ameri ca Modi 3 Jonnesco said, “When I wa* a little girl,, I noticed the sun sank lower and lower and soon Twilight Gray had in her sober livery all things clad. I asked of my uncle, “Where is the sun going?” He replied, ‘To America, my little one; when night comes with us, with them rises the sun, and do you know my child, it is always light in the country of this people? For they are great workers and light is in their hearts.” Then came 1914—I am at Paris; war is declared; the wounded are dying, the Red Cross is inadequate; then, one day, help comes: The Americans have arriv ed—the American Red Cross— thousands of men and women with bewildering speed bring us all we need; they give us everything— their time, their money, their lives, and above all. they give us their hearts. July 14th—day of t^o great victory; eve of the great day; the French anil English soldiers were passing; then a superb solid mass of soldiers of bronze, marching like one man —the Americans. Then there passed before me, all the strength of the New World, lit up by the setting sun which the little girl of long ago had seen.” What tribute could have been more beau tiful and impressive? Madame Jonnesco’s lecture upon Byzantine Art was very Interesting and instructive. She spoke in Eng lish, which rhe had learned in three months. “Byzantine Art is not an art that was created all at once, at a given momeht in the past. It is the re sult of a mixture of influences from Greece, Palestine, Egypt, Asia Mi nor All these influences were uni fied by the Greek genius of Con stantinople. That is the origin of the treasures of .our monastaries. In 1916, I took more than two hund red photographs for the Roumanian number of “L’Art et lea Artistes.” I conceived the idea of a unique book entitled ‘Roumania’ which should make known to the world a small part of these treasures. Encouraged by the King and Queen of Rou mania and by the Queen, who has given me the most beautiful articles she has ever written, with the aid of Parisian artists, I planned this book, which, today, is to be found in many museums: the Louve, the British, the one at Rome, as well as in the great er part of the well-known libraries of Europe. We have had a special edition published solely for Ameri ca, and we shall be happy, If you will even turn over its pages,” said Madame Jonnesco. in addition t° her lecture upon art she told of the seven hundred thousand orphans in her country and how the govern ment was trying to care for them. All the lower floor of. Mrs. Meb ane’s spacious home was ^thrown open for the eosafort ahd entertain ica Brings Cor ie From Queen were the pictures of the Royalty of Rouraania and of Queen Marie, in particular, that were on display. A number of books of Roumania and many historic scenes, and sou venirs of Roumania were found on tables which her guests had the pri vilege and pleasure of enjoying. In the music room delicious punch was served from a cut glass bowl, by Miss Louise Balsey and Mrs. Harris Nelson of Reidsville. Later in the afternoon, the guests were invited into the dining room whch was beau tifully decorated for the occasion, and there delicious block ice cream and cake were served by Mesdames S. H. Marshall, E. V. Hobbs, S. L. Martin, and J. B. Ray, The guests Were received at the door by Judge Kerr Harris of Danville, sister of Mrs. Mebahe, The privilege of meeting and hearing Madame Jonncsco, and of enjoying Mrs. Mebanc’s hospitality, made the occasion one of lasting memories. — ■ o s If it should leave there is nothing that would take its place with the American people.
