DAMASCUS, June 21 Desola
tion .reigns in Damascus. '
The holy city ot the near East,
keeper of the tradition of AruBs
nnd Moslems, is in a slate of selge
from without, while rebellion is
seething within. A triple row of
barbed wire, block houses and dug
outs bristling with machine guns
and flunked by artillery encircling
the heart of the city, have kept the
dissident Druses from storming the
Moslem capital of Syria. For six
months, however, the dissidents
have been holding the once luxur
iant gardens virtually surrounding
the city.
Barricades and barbed wire en
tanglements are at every important
street corner and command every
square in the very center of the
city to within a hundred yards of
the general staff headquarters of
the French army. These defensive
measures have maintained a rela
tive calm among the inhabitants
within the walls of the ancient
capital, but have not completely
stamped out rebellious elements.
The dissident forces holding the
garden have been estimated at be-
tweeu 1220 and 2,000. They have
no artillery save two smull nutl-
taak guns.
Sultan Attrache, commander-in-chief
of the Druse army, within the
past few days, sent a message to
the American people through the
Associated Press in which he de
nied the violation ot the rights of
Christians in Syria and stated that
his people merely were fighting the
French in order to establish their
own rights in their native land. '

Norman Kills, a resident of the

with Ellis for the purchase of his

In the evening a deputy from
the sheriff's office, disguised in
dirty, worn overalls and coat,
went with the special oficer to
Ellis' place.
They found Ellis at work in the
yard, and without a question, the
officers say, Ellis went down the
road and dug up a copper wash
boiler and dome and a jug of
moonshine. With these he re
turned to the car. and dumped
them into the machine.
"We can't use this still with

166,684 In fuvor of tBltlng away the.
properties.. This was slightly more ,
than half the number of the eligi

burg was n bluer opponent of tho
measure to confiscate the royal
properties and recently, in a per-.
sonal letter, i declared that Ihe
adoption 'of It would bo contrary.
to all right and justice. .
Tho defeat of tho confiscation
proposal was a blow to the political
prestige of tho socialists who
strongly favored it and it 's colli
sidei-el as likely to vitally influ
ence that party's parliamentary at

future coalition government -because
