A CRUSADE AGAINST
INDECENT LIQUOR
LABELS
Especial to The Sentinel. ]


st. Louis, Nov. 4.-As the result F,
of crusade commenced by a New |
York weekly periodical, and taken up |
all over the South. members of the /
firm of Levy & Company, distillers |
and liquor dealers, have been arrest |
ed on charges of using obscene and |
indecent labels on their products, II |
was alleged by the New York maya !
zine that the gin made by the con-
cern. and which is largely consumed
by the negroes of the South, bore
suggestive and vulgar labels, and
that the advertising matter of the
company was of such character as
to violate the postal laws. lnsinua-
tions have been made that the gin
is largely responsible for arousing
base passions of the negroes and
driving them to the nameless crimes
against women which are of such
alarming frequency in the South.
The Indictments were returned by
a federal grand jury against Lee
Levy and Adolph Asher. 1t is stated
that these men have become wealthy
through the sale of their gin. which
is one of their principal products.
Prominent attorneys have been en-
| gagged to defend the men and the trial
promises to develop many sensations.
There are two counts in each of
the Indictments against Asher and
Levy. The first indictment is
brought under the law governing eX-
press companies, while the second
is on alleged violation of the postal
regulations. The four counts render
Asher and Levy each liable to a maxi
mum penalty in case of conviction
on all of 20 years in the penitentiary
and $4,000 fines.
An Eastern weekly publication
took up the issue and attacked Dis
tTict Attorney Henry w. Blodgett and
the. officials of this Federal District
for their alleged failure to act. in n
series of violent articles in which
the negro assaults of the South were
laid at the door of distributors of
such labels and indirectly the local
government officials.
Asher & Levy have been made the
issue in prohibition fights up to date
in the Southern states. In the Pat
lterson-Carmack gubernatorial pri-
maries last spring, Carmack exhibited
an alleged Levy label at nearly all
his meetings.
The labels formerly used by Levy
g. Co. on their gin bottles are the
grounds of the indictments. The gov
ernment contends that by holding
the labels in a certain position the
picture presented is one that tends
TO arouse depraved passions in a ne
gro.
1 Asher and Levy VIII fight the in
dictments to the last ditch. The OBJ
jectiOnable labels were removed
from their goods under the storm
raised by Southern Prohibitionists in
\ the heat of the Carmack-Patters
campaign. At the same time one of
the whiskey company's statesmen was
indicted in the Federal Court in
Louisiana but the case against him
has been dropped.
