Pro Agents Raid Sixteen Places in Denison
Under Bee Cowen and George L. Short a team of federal officers searched sixteen Denison locations for intoxicants violating the national prohibition act. About 552 gallons of liquor valued at 1500 dollars and equipment worth 500 dollars were seized, including a 50 gallon still found west of Denison. Twenty-five people face Monday complaints in Sherman, with bonds at 500 dollars for some and others held for the January 1930 federal grand jury.
