District Attorney Is Plan¬ ning Campaign in County
Mineola.—Ever since the Volstead act went into effect. It has been the general bt>llef among offlciala, ae well as others, that undef- the dry regime. It Is the duty of federal authoritlea to prevent Illicit sales of liquor. District Attorney Charles R. Weeks, howe^-er, h^ Investlg-ated the situation, and as a reault, he will undertake the work of riddlngr tho <:ounty of Illicit traflle In liquor.
Federal authorities have been trying to carry on this work throughout the country with a woefully undermanned ! force. They are greatly hampered by | lack of necessary fticllitlcfl.
About a month ago a visltfitlon was made to Nasaau county by somo federal agents,   and   some   south   sido   places , mado the object of search.  These agents | were   not   working  on   evidence  which ' they had secured, but whloh was fur¬ nished to them.   Arrests wore made, but I no ono seems to know Just whut  liap- | pencd to tho mon taken Into custody.
District Attorney Weelui' Investiga¬ tion has disclosed tho fact that, con¬ trary to the usual Idpa, tho old excise law has not become Inoperative a.s a result of the federal conatltutlonal and legislative enactments, and that it Is possible to proceed under this law, to prevent all practices In the matter of ¦ale of liquor, which were prohibited under It.
Section 30 of the exclso law prohibits the sole pf liquor without a llconae, and as licenses are not now procurable for tbe sale of liquor, this section furnishes a means of reaching bootleggers, and those who carry on the liquor trade un¬ der more pretentious circumstances.
District Attorney Weeks took up the matter with Albany officials against the liquor traffic os a county matter. Ho received assurances that tho section of tho excise law mentioned Is still opera¬ tive, and can he used effectively-

MOTORISTS, JUST DRIVE UP TO CURB AND STOP IF HRE ALARM SOUNDS
Rockvllle Centre.—The Flre Council has decided to enforce the village or¬ dinance regarding stopping and driving to the curb of automobiles and other vehicles, when an alarm of fire Is sounded.
Fire apparatas has the right of way. In many Instances there haa been a disregard of this right. The Council fears a serious accident may result from disregard of this ordinance. Fire¬ men have frequently found It necessary to almost rome to a halt, as vehicles were in their way.
The Council haa also heard reports that firemen of the village, as well as residents, are offender and has deter- mlnetl to make no exceptions In enforc¬ ing tho ordinance.
The Council asks co-operation of res¬ idents In giving flremen opportunity to give satisfactory results.

O'KEEFE DEMURRER HEARING0NN0V.23
Date Set in Advaace of Time Fixed for Triak of Othen Similar¬ ly Indicted
Mineola.—The hearing of the demur¬ rer to the indictment agaln.st Thomas O'Keefe, of Oyster Bay, with four oth- •rs, charged w^h conspiracy to prevent tlie .securing of evidence against and ar¬ reat of gamblers, wUl be held at Mineo¬ la on Novemher 23.
Trial of the other four men Indicted on tho same charge wUI be held on De¬ cember 6.
It Is not now known definitely <who win be the Justice assigned to sit in the Supremo Court at the time of the trial.
Attorneys for the four men have been notified of the time for the trial. At the time of arralgmment some of the attorneys expressed a wish that the trial be-held as soon as possible.
The demurrer In the case of O'Keefe will preclude tho inclusion of his case with that of the othera. Other Indict ed men are Supervisor Gl. Wilbur Doughty, As.'semblyman Thomas A. Mc¬ Whinney, Sheriff Chnrlea Smith and "Curley Joo" Cassidy.
Setting the date for the hearing of tho demurrer In the O'Keefe case two weeks ahead of the trial of the other four men mentioned In the blanket in¬ dictment, makes It possible that the demurrer will be acted upon and dis posed of, so that If tho court should overrule the demurrer, O'Keofe's trial might take place with the others.
It had previously been rumored that steps wore taken to apply to Justice Squlers on behalf of the defendants, to have a rovlow of tho Grand Jury min¬ utes. Although such a plan had actu¬ ally been discussed, it is now known definitely that no motion wlU bo offered for such action.
Freeport.—Frank TInney's horses have a penchant for exploring the town, and have developed traits that make lloudlnl look like a piker. Several times during the summer they broke out and went on a mad gallop until stopped by Freeport's finest.
The latest escapade of the frolicksome equines was when Mrs. Joseph CoakK-, ot Unlondale avenue, Unlondale, called up the Freeport police and notified them that one of TInney's horses was board¬ ing at her house, and that he was a kicker.
The W, K. comedian was notified, and It Is presumed he donned his Will Rog#rs and went after the prodigiil colt, because all Is quiet along the avenue.
At present his horses are at "Fox¬ hurst," a large estate In Baldwin, re¬ cently purchased by  the  comedian.

Healtli OfiBcer Phipps Reports Foa
Patients—Complaint As to
Scliool Sanitation
Hempstead has four cases of dlph- thorla, all among children who attend the Van Cott avenue school, according to the report of Health Offlcer H, M. Phipps to the Board of Health Tueaday evening.
Whether the condition of the toUets, about which there has been considera¬ ble complaint, haa anything to do with the diphtheria, the doctor said ho was unable to state.
Tho matter of the toileta haa been taken up with the Board of Education.
Dr. Phipps said he had Instructed a school teacher to make a thorough ex¬ amination of the pupils daily and re¬ port any suspected cases. Ho was doubtful of the wisdom of closing the school, as it would throw all the chil¬ dren onto the streets, where their ming¬ ling might be more dangerous than if In school under proper superviaion and inspection.
The Board left tho matter of closing the school or any other action neceasary m the hands of the Health Officer with full power, aa weU aa the matter of the InstaJlatlon of more aduquate toilets. The toilet system used In the school is old, mstalled m the days when the vU¬ lage waa not provided with sewers. Thay have never l)een connected with the sowers. Serious complainta have been made concerning them.
At a previous meeting of tha Soard the health offlcer reported tbat he re¬ garded them as unsanitary and the re¬ port was sent to the Board of Educa¬ tion. A reply waa received to the effect that ths matter would he taken up at the next meeting of the school board.

SEWAGE PROBLEM COMNl^ HEMPSTEAD VILLAGE RIGHT NOW
TWO FORMER OWNERS APPROVE AMALGAMATION OF NEWSPAPERS
Mr. James E. Stiles,
Publisher of Nassau Coimty Review,
Rockville Centre, N. Y. My dear Stiles : *
It was with somewhat queroulous anticipation that I awaited the production of the Nassau County Review last week in its new form, amalgamating the former South Side Observer, Nassau Post, Hemp¬ stead Inquirer and Nassau County Review.
Hardly anyone not having an active interest in the joint publi¬ cation, possibly could have any more interest in it than I, because of the fact that for twenty-five years I had been connected with the pub¬ lication of the South Side Observer, and I was really anxious to see what kind of a publication was going to succeed "my own" and the other papers.
And while I would like to have seen the joint publication bear lhe name of the South Side Observer, still for the purposes you out¬ lined in your editorial pronunciamenlo, I think the name you have chosen, Nassau County Review, is quite appropriate. *
There is only one other name that might have answered the pur¬ pose, and that is the Nassau County Observer; it's a newspaper man's duty to "observe" or "review," and I think either name is appropri¬ ate, and perhaps the latter better answers the purpose.
Now that that is off my mind, let me "observe" as a result of a "review" of the new combined publication.
I have carefully gone over every column of reading and adver¬ tising, and I am favorably impressed.
The "news" is newsy, and cannot fail to interest the residents of all portions of the county: it will have a tendency to cause them to feel that they, the readers, are an integral part of a fine large family, rather than of a smaller unit, and the people of each locality will eventually become more interested in each other.
The advertising is well displayed, and the classified and legal advertising departments collated as they are, are well adapted for the purposes intended and desired.
And with Walter S. Funnell as editor-in-chief, what more could be desired? Many Long Islanders will recollect his pithy articles un¬ der the cognomen of "Jerry Wockers" years ago in the Brooklyn Daily Times, and the members of the Fourth Estate on Long Island know him well from his many years as Long Island editor of the Brook¬ lyn Times, so that he does not enter upon his new duty with the Nas¬ sau County Review unknown.
You are to be congratulated upon the new publication, and the choice of your assistants, and as one of the former publishers and owners of the South Side Observer, I wish you every success, as I know my father would, too, were he here.
Very sincerely yours,
ARCHER B. WALLACE. Nov. 15, 1920.
Trustees Feel They Can¬ not Wait for Other Villages
Mr. James E. Stiles, Nassau County Review, Freeport, N. Y. Dear Jim :
Just got home from St. Lawrence County, and had a pleasant hour reading the new Nassau County Review. It certainly is great, and knowing so well the work involved. I want to compliment you on the result.
Sincerely yours.
SMITH F. PEARSALL Freeport. N. Y., Nov. 15. 1920.
Hempstead—Cyril IC. Mar.shall, who was vlllalle enBlneer of Hempstead when the sewer system was installed. rep')rt('d to the Village Board Tui-sday night ut the roquest ot Prosldent Nich ois, concerning the needs ot the pump ing stations and sewer beds. As Mr. .Marshall was in charge of the installa tion of the .system, naturally he Is fa¬ miliar with the situation.
He found that the centrifugal pumps in the sewer jtumping stations have be¬ como considerably worn after nine years of constant use. He rerommend- od that new pumjis be in.stalled at a cost of alKJUt $5,000.
He furtliur recoinniendod that a large pipe be installi'd from tho tank In the pumping station nt the sewer to one of the former government sewer beds, to take care of surplus storm water that enters the sewer system through manholes di'rlng times of fiood; also that connections be made between the Illd Ijeds of tho village and the new beds  obtained from  tho government.
This cost would amount to about $5,ono.
M% Marshall said that while the pumps might do the work for some time lo come, the village was taking a aerious rL-jk, aa It would be in a bad predicament ahould the pumi>s glvo out. When the i)lant was first installed, pro¬ vision was made for additional pumps, but they were not Installed.
Growth of th<> village necessitates constant use of nil tho pumps. He also pointed out that the Inefllclency of the pumps costs the village more than should l)e paid for elo<'tric current. The charge is now about |400 a month. He thought new pumps would cut thia down at least $100.
Mr Marshall said he had discussed with George L. Ilubljell, of the Gar¬ den City Company, the possibility that Garden City would contract with Hemp¬ stead for sewer di8pos.-il and had found no Immediate pro8pe<'t of such an ar¬ rangement. He recommended, there¬ fore, that the villago dispose of the ma¬ chinery in the government-owned plant, while it Is In good condition and will bring a good price, and then purcha.se new and up-to-<'ato machinery, should the time come when It Is needed. It Is believed that the amount received from the salo of machinery will more than pay the ccJst of the new pumps.
The Board authorized Mr. Marshall to appraise the machinery, together with the electric generator which has Ijcen idle at the water works for many years, and report at the next meeting.
Trustee Chamberlin urged that If pos¬ sible the Improvements be deferred for a time In order to take' advantage of the probable reduction in prices. It was decided to await the report of the en¬ gineer at the next meeting and the mat¬ ter was laid over.
The proposition to have the Village of Hempstetfid dispose of the sewage of Oarden City ,ha8 l>apn discussed for months. It was Ijelleved that this could be done to mutual advantage of the two communities, but the Board feels that Hempstead cannot afford to allow ex- r)enslve machinery to Ue idle and de¬ teriorate Indefinitely while other vUlag- ee are making up their minds what they want to do.
Mr. Marshall's reiJort stated that Mr. Hubbell had advised that Hempstead dispose of the machinery, rather Indi¬ cating that the prospe'-ts for an agree¬ ment within the near future are slight.
Must   Buy   Some   Land
The flrst i>o|rtloii of this Sunds I'olnf- Long Beach boulevard to be improved is the section between Henrlngtown and Flower HIII, i> short dlnt.Tnce north of .Mineola. To bring thia al)OUt it will,be nrco.isiiry to struightcn the route of tho present Searingtown roud. In order to do that some small tracts of adjacent land must be socuied.
I'luii.s to acquire this needed land had previously been prepared and maps of till' areas ni.-vdo, but when opposition to giving Koileral aid dovelopwl the work was tabled. This work will now be taken up no that the whole project can  procoi-d.

Hempstead—As a further slop In the efforts of thn residents of tho neigh¬ borhood of upper Washington street to prevent the ostaljilshmont of apartment houses on Washington stroot by the Salvation Army, Attorney H.
