SIX ARRESTED IN RAID ON DOPE [Continued From First Page] dope of every variety was found by the officers this morning. Hidden L'nder Carpets Even A search under the carpet reveaieS packs, backs of pictures revealed sev eral more. Hidden away in drawers, under mattresses, any place handy when they felt the effects of the for mer shots dying out, the stuff was found. Last night was a very busy night for Shuler. He ran in three "street walkers" about midnight. Three hours later, he arrested Anthony Penna for exceeding the speed limit on River side drive. Penna put up a five-dol lar forfeit at that time and was al lowed to go free. Just a little later, George pulled his former arrest from the dark closet when he searched the house. Plead For Mercy The crowd was held at the police station until late this morning. When the girls heard the rumble of "Black Maria," the police patrol that was to bear them to the county jail, all broke down and Implored the authorities for mercy. Marie plead that she be given another chance to leave the town, but' it was too late. The former chance had been ignored. The men prisoners took their fate nonchalantly until placed in the cells and the bars grated into place. Penna had boasted that he was the owner or a jitney company In Reading and de clared, "There won't be any trouble about the bail." Plead For Drug* When Chenlworth began to miss the accustomed "shot" he begged for lust a little to quiet his nerves. Police officials had never seen a victim use heroin and he was given a tiny pinch on paper. He bent over the "joy dust," took one long sniffle and) Immediately the effect could be noticed. Both Penna and Chenlworth are prosperous looking and show no effects of the use of dope. Ttiorley Is a phy sical wreck, almost the last stage. Al though only 22, his sallow features give him the appearance of a much older man. Ho is also tubercular, lie pleads constantly for a clgaret, any thing to allay the pain of the dying drugs. - - • If IB ffiii® ' i|:i ? : ' &m , . t fr<iqnl'-- •" -J 3 „ " ' -• • • f . Watkins.

DANIELS CALLS NEWSPAPERS TO SUPPRESS NEWS Patriotic Appeal Is Measure to Prevent Information on Ships Getting to Teutons By Associated Press Washington, March 10. Following i.H the statement last night by Secretary of the Navy Daniels to newspaper men: "You have read the statement Is sued from the White House and now you know that the President has the power to arm American merchant ships making trips on the seas on law ful errands, and is free to exercise it at once. I do not think you ought to ask with what guns they will be armed or how they will be manned or ex actly when the power will be exer cised. The government should be trusted fully to carry out the policy announced in the best way. "I do not think you ought to ask when the ships will be armed or print when they will sail. To-day I re quested every cable company in Am erica not to send out any news about ships sailing to or from Europe. The wireless stations are under the direc tion of the Navy Department and no news of sailings will go out by radio. Voluntary Censorship "I am going to request you and every newspaper and every news agen cy in the United States not to print any news about the arrival of ships or when any of them will sail for Eu ropean ports. There is no power of censorship in our country. The Presi dent does not have any authority over the press. In this time of national emergency, I feel sure that every newspaper will accede to the request not to even give a hint or speculation of the sailing of American ships. Such publication might result in the loss of life. As the reasons are so obvious for making this request there is. confi dence in administration circles that this request wili be complied with by every paper in the country. "All patriotic Americans are ready to make sacrillce for their country in times of emergency. The press can render the highest patriotic service by refraining from printing at this time what ordinarily they would freely print. Might Jeopardize Life "Inasmuch as it will be impossible to reach every paper and news agency directly, I will ask all papers to carry this request which is made as an ap peal to patriotism to all journalists and disseminators of news. The best news the readers can have is that the government will protect the rights of America to the freedom of the seas. The publication of details can serve no good purpose and might jeopardize human life. All readers will surely applaud the papers In responding to this appeal." CENTRAL HIGH SOCIETY The P. B. P. Society of Central High school heeld a meeting at the home of Miss Ruth Smiley, 14 07 Green street. A business meeting was held at which the following officers were elected: Miss Elizabeth Ulrich, presi dent; Miss Ruth Smiley, secretaryl and Miss Esther Trostle, treasurer.
