I One of the finest summer resort quadidivirions in the cottntry is planned by Henry F. of IL O. i 1 Stone who yesterday bought the huge country estate of the late Vie.1 tor F. Lawson on the shores of Green Lake. for The property comprises more than 1,000 acres.

Some idea of the magnitude of the estate is gained when one knows that there are seventeen miles of concrete roads winding about the heavily wood- grounds. There are several miles et1 of shore line. Buildings which would $200,000 to construct today are scattered about. There are under. ground improvements costing $90.000.

'There's a nine hole golf courses which Is to be made into eighteen. In all. it is estimated by Mr. Norcott that Mr. Lawson expended more than in this Wisconsin paradise.

And, strange to say. Mr. Lawson's own living quarters were in a modest two story frame house on the lake shore.practically an of the millions spent were in development of the property as a whole.

As a result of the letter. there were several resignations from the united committee. Those who quit included Edwin C. Dinwiddie the Rev. Dr.

Clarence True Wilson. and Oliver W. Stewart. The executive committee of the Anti-Saloon league commended President Coolidge and the justice depnrtment for setting aright the controversy about the responsibility of the federal government to prosecute all violators of the federal prohibition law." Capt. W.

H. Stayton, founder and national chairman of the Association Against the Prohibition Amendment, scored the united committee tonight. "The drys, In this matter, are far from corning into court with clean hands," he said. It will be recalled that they indorsed for Congressman Langley even when he was under indictment for bootlegging In other words, their idea of a good citizen is a convict who drinks hut who votes the way they want him to." rDYER WANTS REPEAL FAVOR THE WIFE Blame for the escape of Martin Durkin from a police trap in which a policeman and a civilian lost their I lives in the gun battle was laid at the i door of the detail assigned to capture I the slayesr by Capt. Michael Lee of the Englewood station.

Lee took the stand yesterday to answer charges of inefil- I ciency. Following the testimony of the suspended captain the trial board took the case under advisement. Decision in i expected in a few days. Twice during the day John F. O'Connell, counsel for' Capt.

Lee moved for dismissal of the case, but was overruled. Capt. Lee told of sending men to 1 240 Englewood avenue, where Durkin with his sweetheart, Betty Andrews, walked into a trap. I instructed Sergt. Naughton to look over the flat Capt.

Lee said. and assign the men so that they would not be in the linen! each other's lire. I emphasized that no man was to make a move until Durkin reached the middle of the room. Then they were to close in on him. If common police sense had been used Durkin never could have escaped.

If four men in hiding flat couldn't capture an intruder, then the police had better close up." The question rests on whether Capt. Lee should have seen there were men stationed outside as well as inside the building. Capt. Lee said he had explained to Capt. William Schoemaker that men outside the building might be seen by Durkin.

Did the defendant practice such concealment or make said representations with the intent thereby to induce the plaintiff to marry her? Was the plaintiff by said concealment or by said representation, or by both, induced to marry the defendant? If the plaintiff had known that defendant was of colored blood would he have married her? "Did the plaintiff cohabit with the defendant after he had obtained full knowledge that the defendant was of colored blood." In his charge Justice Morschauser told the jury they could attach whatever weight they saw fit to the failure of Alice and her father to testify.

It is expected'a huge fireproof hotel may be erected by a. 'syndicate and in addition. that the property will be platted and sold for summer homes. As Green lake and the Lawson estate both have a national reputation for beauty. Mr.

Norcott expects his buyers to come from all parts of the world. H. B. Binney, manager of the real estate department of the Illinois Merchants Trust company represented the Lawson estate In the transaction. (Continued from Brat paste.) Maj.

Wilcox and his planes have been assigned to a field comparatively close to Winnipeg and with their superior speed and facility for disregarding highways can follow the rum running motor cars with ease. The number of planes Maj. Wilcox reports will be considerably increased from now until the end of the year. This is in order to frustrate what believed to be plans to smuggle extra heavy shipments over the international boundary to provide for the large' Christmas demand by thirsty Americans. With this source of supply made1 more difficult, Christmas cigars in ada probably will cost nearer normal prices.
