officials were dolngr their best to

tale, the operators of thin modern

TUG DAY IS T
Moonshine, drink or a thousand
devils. Is the way one federal enforce-
- ment agent describes the fluids being
peddled in Portland, and he bases his
information on some 100 different
types of stills and mashes that he has
personally seized since last February.
This man. possibly the most feared by
iHicit manufacturers of liquor, closely
' gourds his identity, because he be
lieves that the less known he is the
better results he can achieve. He has
handled more than 200 local cases in
the last ten months.
Decayed fruit and vegetables from
Front-street commitsion houses, al
lowed to ferment and then run through
a still made of old oyster cans or a
green verdigris-infected copper worm
is far from conducive to good health,
and increasing numbers of those who
take a chance to get a kick are being
retreated at local hospitals. This man
" sti.tes that nearly all of the violations
. of the federal prohibition law are by
foreigners who know nothing of sani
tation and have their utensils in a
' deplorable condition as they produce
the often death-causing concoctions.
Fermentation Fre Poisons.
Distilling in the old days was an
chemical process and whisky
' was made only from carefully selected
irirredients. Today the law-breaker
uses any old material that comes to
' hand, swill, potato peelings, decayed
fruits, and in the process of fermenta
tioit many chemical changes occur that
rrlmsft dangerous Doisons. As the
liouor is sold as fast as it is made
"" there is no provision for aging as was
the case in the old days, with tne re
suit that the purchaser, not innocent
and therefore shouldering all the
risks, absorbs immense quantities of
lusel oil and other substances mat
notion the stomach. '
Arsenates of lead and zinc are but
two of these substances, yet seemingly
sane men. In the words of this law
enforcement officer, who would never
think of entering a drug store and
sretting poison for their personal use,
will go to all manner of trouble and
pay enormous prices to get poison
from bootleggers.
Just a casual scanning of federal
records will show some of the con
trivances employed to extract the
alcohol from mashes and will serve
to point the danger of drinking any of
th.s liquor.
Tin Cans Make Stills.
When Aimie Estman was arrested
near Drain, Or., he was running
still that he had made from a five-
( gallon galvanized coffee can. Galvan
' iztng is the process of placing a zinc
I coat on a sheetiron base with the aid
cf sulphuric and other acids. Estman's
outfit consisted of this big can, over
the top of which he had a dishpan
, filled with cold water and inside the
b'g can and suspended by wires was
a tin cup. On the bottom of this big
I cold dishpan was a piece of solder,
half lead and half zinc, that gathered)
t - the sweat drops from the steaming
; mash and caused them to fall in the
-. cup. j
Pat Donovan and Jack Curry, ar
retted eight miles south of Newberg.
' had a five-gallon soup can for their
main receptacle that they had bought
from a restaurant, and inside of this
they had a set of nine oyster cans sup
porting a common 15-cent wash basin
filled with cold water, and they oper
ated their plant in the same manner
as did Estman.
1'ollce Scrape Off Polion.
Jack Robinson and Harvey Allen,
two other late operators, picked up
a square galvanized tank and inside
of this they had a coil of pure lead
pipe through which the steam was
sent from the boiling mash. When
, they were caught the arresting offi
cers found a heavy coat of crystals,
possibly arsenate of lead, in the in
' terior of the lead worm, and by rub
bing the fingers on the inside of the
. pipe were able to get large quantities
of this poison, much of which un
doubtedly found its way into the
liquor they sold.
Out in Washington county a rald
- -Ing party caught a young man who
had taken his idea from the movies,
, and who had anice copper outfit. But
; he was not able to have his plant
' in the proper shape as he was always
in the position of working in a hurry
and forced to bury the copper coils
when not in use, with the result that
they were green with rust.
He also had a lead coil that he had
melted from too much heat and re
paired with solders and when the ar
resting officers told him of the dan
ger to others of the fluid that he was
making he seemed glad that he had
been caught, and that his liquor had
' not been responsible for any deaths.
One local man caught operating- on
, swill made no secret of where he got
. nis materials, just telling the arrest-
i ing officers that he used rotten stuffs
' that he got in a garbage route, and
j that he had made many gallons of
well-flavored moonshine from this that
he had disposed of at top prices. Chem-
J ists point out that these men, know-
. ing nothing of distilling as a science-
have to work fast and sell quick so
that they do not care how they turn
their stuff out. making It as fast as
possible, and hiding their outfits. It
is the lure of easy money that at
tracts the men.
In analyzing the class of men who
make a specialty of this work, it is
found that nearly 95 per cent of the
offenses handled locally are from for
eigners, nearly 90 per cent of these
are Austrians. according to this en
forcement officer. Of the remainder
more than one-half are foreigners of
some other nationality and the small
minority American born.
Hit or miss methods In distillation
are breeding a race of lawbreakers
that are a menace to the community,
for their potent product is not only
the cause of much misery on the part
of those who partake, but often
arouses their patrons to undue crim
inal tendencies, according to crim
inologists who have studied the sit

WAVEKLY BABY HOME TO
MADE BENEFICIARY.
BE
With Good Weather and Plenty of
Workers Quota Will Be made,
Mrs. Itunyon Declares.
Noted by Citizens.
TURKEY IS NON-ESSENTIAL
The weather man has been earnestly
petitioned by sundry workers in the
service of Waverly Baby home to pro
vide fair skies for .tomorrow, when
the maintenance fund campaign for lying motives of Tnanksglving do not
ntown tag! deal with turkeys save as symbols,
Gobbler, After All. Only Symbol of
Thanksgiving Spirit of Day
as Evident as Ever.
It is nowhere required In the code
of Thanksgiving -that the celebrant
dine on turkey, tnough traditional
error holds that tnis particular fowl
should grace the feast of plenty.
The Pilgrim fathers, scouting for
game in the oaken thickets of Massa
chusetts some three centuries or so
ago, originated the turkey -theory
when the bell-mouthed muskets
roared heavily and brought down
msf t-fattened gobblers. ,
But despite this well-authenticated
tradition, it is certain that the under
10.000 will close with downtown tag
sales.
'"Give us good weather and plenty of
workers and we will make the quota
by tomorrow night," declares Mrs.
C. E. Runyon, chairman of the cam
paign. "In any event we must have
more of the latter. Volunteers for
tag-day duty are urged to present
themselves today or early tomorrow at
headquarters, the blueroom of the
Portland hotel, where equipment and
orders will be issued."
Thanksgiving brought about a truce
in the advance of the Waverly work
ers, but the flying squadron, led by
Mrs. Ira Powers, will resume opera
tions early this morning, confident in
the ability of its members to raise
one-half the maintenance fund, or
o000. Owing to delay in initiating
active subscription work, the goal is
yet far distatit.
Tomorrow night a final effort in the
downtown district will be made by a
campaign company from the women's
progressive league, captained by Mrs
Louise Palmer Webber. At noon . a
combined band from the police and
fire bureaus will play for the cause.
Cuddly, cozy exhibits for Waverly will
be in the show windows of the Powers
and Jennings stores, where nurses
with their infant charges will greet
pedestrians all day.
CREDIT IS GIVEN PILGRIMS
and that a laden table whatever the
roast speaks for the good old cus
tom of a fine old day. And it was so
that' Portland held revel . on the
Thanksgiving of 1920, caring little
whether the fowl was turkey, goose,
plump pullet or mallard from the
marshes but caring a great deal for
the meticulous observance of the Pil
grim holiday- that has remained a
moral and corrective ' influence in
American life.
Mayflower Brought Benefactors of
Civilization, Says Pastor.
"Civilization will always claim the
Pilgrims as among the world's great
est benefactors," declared Rev. W. T.
McElveen, pastor of the First Congre
gational church, in addressing the
union Thanksgiving service yesterday
morning at the First Methodist Epis
copal church.
Dr. McElveen chose as his subject
"The First Thanksgiving Day and
Ours" and paid high credit to the
Pilgrim forefathers. He said that
they "saved English civilization."
"The idea we try to express by our
annual Thanksgiving day is a very
old idea," he said. "In the Bible we
find mention of a Jewish Thanksgiv
ing day. The ancient Greeks arid the
ancient Romans observed a kind of
Thanksgiving day and our -Anglo-
Saxon ancestors had a great day of
Thanksgiving al.so.
The first Thanksgiving dav our
Pilgrim forefathers observed was not
so much a holy day as a holiday.
Most persons think of the Pilgrims
as not liking to play, but on that dav
they taught their Indian guests games
and played with them. The Pilgrims
went right straight at the task of try
ing to purify corrupt and flippant
English society.
"Some may make fun of the stern
visages of the Pilgrims, but it was
enough to makeany man's face hard
as flint to live 'in that corrupt age.
Some say the Pilgrims were icono
clasts. They were, because others to
their shame had filled the church
with sham and hypocrisy.
"Recall your indebtedness to the
Pilgrims. We are here today, wor
shipping God as we please, because
they crossed the ocean and fought for
freedom 'of speech and of assembly."
Thanksgiving Service Held.
"A day' wages for those starving
In body and soul" was the slogan for
Thanksgiving day in Our Savior's
Norwegian Lutheran church. Grant
and East Tenth streets. The service
was held at 11 A. it., the sermon
preached by Rev. M. A Christensen.
Special envelopes for the Thanksgiv
ing offering had been sent out and
were placed on the altar at the. close
of the service.
Gratitude "Well Grounded.
There is no holiday on the calendar
that Americans approach with quite
the same sentiments of jollity and
veneration as mark the day of prayer
and plenty. It is as though, pausing
for the moment from their various
affairs, all proper folk took cogni
zance of the passing year and for the
first time came to the understanding
that it had dealt kindly with them.
This was the message of Thanks
giving as voiced from the pulpits of
many churches yesterday, when pas
tors reminded their flocks that one
cannot be genuinely thankful with
out appreciation and that to Port
land has been given in large measure
both prosperity and civic happiness.
There were union church services at
the following houses of v.orship: First
Presbyterian church. Third Baptist
church. Rose City Park Presbyterian
church, Mount Tabor Presbyterian
church. First Methodist Episcopal
church, St. Stephen's Pro-Cathedral.
East Side Christian church and
Church of Our Father. Unitarian.

Though "turkey roosted far above
the means of many provident folk,
who would not pay an exorbitant
price, scores of Portland newsboys
dined to repletion on both white and
dark meat at noon, with all the aux
iliary edibles that encomriss & prop
erly served fowl,-when Eric V. Hauser
of the Multnomah hotel gave to the
lusty-lunged youngsters hir custom
ary Thanksgiving hospitality. It was
the open house that one craftsman ex
tends to another, for in the old days
on the streets of Minneapolis their
host was one of the clan.
And this Thanksgiving was distin
guished by an innovation a dinner
de luxe to the hapless inmates of- the
pound, those masterless and mistress
lacking pups, dogs, cats and kitties
who have strayed into the keeping of
the Oregon Humane society. There
was a pet collie who had a home of
its own not long since, but the haz
ards of fate overtook him and he went
to -roam the infinite meadows where
good dogs surely go. His mistress,
grieving, pledged tJ the waifs in the
pound such a Thanksgiving as would
lighten her beart and her checking
account. "Lady Bountiful" they call
the benefactress incognito, for whose
kindliness Mrs. M. F. Swanton served
as proxy.
Little Poverly Koted.
There were laden baskets borne by
quiet, unobtrusive donors to all Port
land homes where Thanksgiving
seemed in peril of non-observance,
and at Piseah home, where certain
very elderly folk recall the gala days'
of other years, "Mother" Lawrence
saw to it that the plates were heaped
with festal food. -Yet there was little
want to seek out this Thanksgiving,
for social workers have found . that
poverty is at a minimum in the city
this season. .
The gridiron game must needs be
played on each Thanksgiving, and
football urged thousands of devotees
to Multnomah field in the afternoon,
where Oregon Agricultural college
strove valiantly with the gladiators
of the Multnomah Amateur Athletic
club, victory resting with the former
by a score of 10 to 7.
Throughout the day public build
ings, including tthe postoffice, were
closed. The downtown streets pre
sented only a thin trickle of traffic,
for, like unto Christmas, the day of

Infant Waif Visits Friends at Sta

Mary Lou, when she had done with
a huge turkey drumstick at the home
of her present foster parents. Chief
of Police and Mrs. Jenkins, was taken
to the police station to say "goo goo"
to her many friends among the blue
coats. Mary Lou was in high spirits.
She crowed and gurgled and tried to
chew up her necktie, or whatever it
was she Wore. The chief noticed her
doing so and started out for a rubber
rattle. During his absence one of the
police offered her a cigar to chew,
but Mrs. Jenkins came to the rescue
with the light of determination in her
eyes. Mary Lou is pinker and hap
pier than ever, and seemed to be en
joying her first Thanksgiving im
mensely. Ed, negro janitor at police head
quarters, mopped up enough booze
yesterday morning to give him a fine
appetite. He cleaned up a mixture of
wild grapejuice, vicious cider, moon
shine whisky and homebrew that
would have' put an ordinary man
under the' table. But Ed used a mop
to mop it up with, - and wrung the
booze into his scrub bucket.
The grapejuice was working hard.
So was the cider. The homebrew was
popping off with a suggestive fizz.
The haunted chamber was flooded
and police headquarters smelled like
a distillery which had just been dyna
mited. Flotsam and jetsam of humanity at
the city and county jails were given
a holiday treat by the 23-piece or
chestra of the Apostolic Faith mis
sion. The music of the ensemble was
echoed from the "bull pen," where
several capulous celebrants were
singing their favorite songs. At the
conclusion of the concert the prison
ers gave the Rev. R. R. Crawford and
his orchestra -a vote of thanks. One
oldtimer. who appeared to have had
many hard knocks, stated that it was
the first time in years that he had
heard church music.

dinner, "there go a whole lot of
