Two Arrests Made in Drive to
Disclose Dope Caches Be
lieved Stored in.
Bluffs.
-\h a result of the discovery last
i \-.r-k that Council Bluffs is a whole
j !<• dope depot for those connected
uith the traffic in other cities in this
vicinity, particularly Omaha, federal
narcotic agents began operations here
TU'sday night.
Two arrests already have been
made, a quantity of drugs has been
Seized and further developments are
expected to materialize. J. A. Man
ning and W. A. .Carroll are the gov
M'nment sleuths conciliating the in
vestigation.
Accompanied by Patrolman Walter
II. Brown of the police department,
they arrested Dan McKay and Earl
Van Winkle near Fifth avenue and
Main street Tuesday night. A quan
tity of cube morphine was found in
their possession.
The fact that the tnen had hern
loitering suspiciously in the vicinity
with the drug upon their persons
leads the federal men to believe that
the tenaeles of the retail dope traff.c
have begun to fasten themselves upon
the community.
The original theory which prompt
ed the investigation of conditions in
the Bluffs was that Omaha wholesal
ers maintain large caches or plants of
narcotic, supplies on this side of the
river, removing the drugs in smaller
quantities to supply the demand of
the retail traffic
The same plan was followed dur
ing the days of whisky runners, who
brought ^arloads of booze from Kan
sas City and planted them in the
Bluffs. Trips front the Bluffs to Oma
ha were made with small loads and
their loss, If arrested on the bridge,
never was heavy.
Federal men say that Council Bluffs
A is comparatively free front dope users
■ I and that. - consequently. narcotic
agents very rarely operate in this
community. This fact makes the lo
cation ideal for establishment of huge
wholesale! .aches o' drugs.
' ' Examination of the “morphine” by
Federal Narcotics Agent Manning of
Omaha revealed it to be c-ltalk.
Manning said he believed the men
‘ tarried the chalk aa a “blind” for
more serious operations.
Fear Spread of Farm Strike.
By Associated Press.
London. March 28.—The spread of
(he agricultural atrlke to parts of
Lincolnshire and Cambridgeshire Is
causing anxiety lest it extend to an
even wider area and perhaps become

after a prolonged spell of rain, for the
farmers are obliged to see an oppor
tunity pass by.

NO WONDER IT IS POPULAR
1 he Sew (;<K>dwor ( *td
umth the Reveled A/i
U'eather Tread
Mileage, security, freedom from trouble —
every motorist wants these qualities in a tire.
Because the new Goodyear Cord with the
beveled All-Weather Tread affords them in
surpassing measure, its popularity is grow
ing by leaps and bounds.
The tread on this new tire is semi-flat
instead of round; thev blocks of this tread
are reinforced at the base by rubber ribs
and are beveled at the outer edges of the
design.
These features, together with* a new and
remarkably efficient rubber compound,
result in a kind of performance that we
have never seen in any earlier type of tire.
If you want smooth and trouble-free riding,
together with a service that is the standard
of tire service the world over, be sure you
get the new Goodyear Cord.
* * *
As Goodyear Service Station Dealers we tell
and recommend the new Goodyear Cords
with the beveled All-Weather Tread and
back them up with standard Goodyear Service
