Three men, caught in the act of
operating the press, were arrested.
Secret service men assigned to pur

operations of the hand from a
room a block away.
The raid was made by seven
agents who rushed the apartment
with drawn revolvers. They took
I'ericle Mannerini, alleged head of
the ring; Joseph de Negros, alHO
known a-s Joseph Ross, alleged
financier of the band and chief
distributor of Its wares; and Mat

as an expert engraver and litho
grapher. . Money Still Wet
L)lHiiy sheets of counterfeit notes
were still wet from the presses.
Each sheet contained $540 in
bogus notes of all three denomina
tions. The agents also-found spe

money.
The press, Allan G. Straight,
chief of the secret service said,
weighs 3.500 pounds and occupied
the entire side of a wall. It was
one of the largest ever seized and
experts will be called to dismantle
it.
The three prisoners were locked

Literary Digest Answers
Charge Wet States Given
Extra Quota of Ballots
The charge that The Literary
Digest favored the wet states with
an jjxtra supply of ballots In Its
twenty-million-ballot poll on no
hibitlon. and that the dry states
were correspondingly cheated, is
answered vigorously and in detail
by that magazine.
"Hespectuble statistical author
ities have been quoted," the editor
remarks, "and Imposing rows of
figures have been cited, to support
the accusation that The Digest did
not furnish the dry states with
ballot quotas nearly adequate to
their population, judged by the
quantities we mailed to the wet
states, and by the total of our
ballots.
"Now let us examine the figures
and compare them with our own,
which aro complete and final.
"We find in the first place the
figures of our critics are based
wholly on population statistics.
This makes them misleading. The
apportionment of Digest poll bal
lots among the states Is governed
by popular vote statistics in this
case those of the presidential elec
tion of 1H28.
"The difference is quite impor
tant. ' for the popular voting
strength of some of the dry states
is much smaller in proportion to
population than that of the princi
pal wet states." .
Here The Literary Digest calls
in Its statistical experts, and they
present a table furnishing a direct
answer to the charge that the wet
states were favored. A study of
it, says the editor, will show that
it was really the dry states which
accidentally got a slight excess of
those coveted ballots. The table
has eight columns of figures, but
the meat of the cocoanut Is In the
third, fourth, fifth and sixth. To
quote:
"In the third appears the 1928
popular vote by states, and In the
fourth come the percentages of
state popular votes to the country's
popular vote. The fifth shows
how The Digest's grand total of
20.227,370 ballots were apportion
ed among the states, while the per
centages of these state ballots to
the total are shown In the sixth
column."
Turning then to the two percen
tage columns, the fourth and sixth,
we begin to get results thus:
"Take the third state Alabama.
In the fourth column wo find that
the percentage of Its popular vote
to the total popular vote of the
nation Is O.C. while the sixth col
umn reveals that Alabama received
1.04 per cent, of The Digest's bal
lots. "Looks as if we had befriended
Alabama.
1 "It's an amusing game to run
down those fourth and sixth col
jumns keeping one eye on each if
I you can. and see how well or ill
The Digest treated each state.
Some, like Arizonu. Connecticut.
Illinois, and Maine, come out pret
ty evenly between the ballots they
were entitled to and those we sent
them. Minnesota's credit and
debit are remarltably close. So are
Ohio's. And Oklahoma's actually
tally to the dot.
"Hut Kansas, with only 1.93 per
cent, of tho national popular vote,
received 2.31 per cent, of the
Digest ballots, wherewith to score
the banner dry percentage of the
poll.
"Again we plead guilty to be
friending the camel. But let's get
down to Texas.
"Texas is held up by prohibi
tionist statisticians as a pathetic
victim of Tho Digest's injustice.
They point out that the Lone Star
state, with a population almost
half that of New York, received
less than a fourth of Now York's
quota of ballots.
"Hut wc turn to the illuminating
fourth and sixth columns of fig
ures in our table and find that
Texus In 1928 contributed only
1.92 per cent, of the nation's pop
ular vote. Hence Its quota of 3.87
per cent, of Digest's ballots was
more than generous. Really, it
was awfully careless of us to send
Texas so many!
"Of course the explanation of
why there is such a wide discrep
ancy between tho population of
Texas 5,487.000 and its popular
vote 708,909 is that enormous
blocks of its Inhabitants do not
vote. These are chiefly Mexican
peons and Negro luborers. They
do not receive Digest ballots, which
are aimed at a voting, reading,
purchasing public."
How about the populous antl
prohlbltion states, such as New
York The critics say they were
unduly favored. The reply Is that
New York In 1928 registered 12.11
per cent, of the country's vote,
whereas The Digest gave it only
10.10 per cent, of the total number
of ballots sent out. So the boot
was on the other foot, and the
"discrimination" was all against
New York and In favor of Texas.
The figures thus refuted were
contained in u Washington dis
patch relating that Floyd Neff,
mathematician, of Philadelphia,
had been quoted by the Mothodist
Board of Temperance, Prohibition
and Public Morals as saying that
"4 7.91 per cent, of the votes of Tho
Digest's poll were from New York,
Pennsylvania, Illinois. New Jersey
and Connecticut, having 28.66 per
cent, of the nation's population."

Powered by an engine that develops 65 horsepower, producing a speed of 72 miles an hour in high
nd 48 miles an hour in second, the new Willys Six is announced by the Willys-Overland Company.
Besides its low price and unusually hieh performance rating, this new model is characterized by distinctive
lines of beauty. The upper picture shows the De Luxe Sedan with a view of the Standard Sedan below.
The emblem is that used on the radiator. Interiors of the new Willys Six arc conspicuous for their
roominess, which, combined with the double acting hydraulic shock eliminators are material factors in
riding comfort. In addition to the two sedan models the line also includes two and four passenger coupes,
two and four passenger roadsters, five passenger coach and touring car.
