DRY STATES EXTENDED
GOVERNMENT SUPPORT

Topeka ,Kans-A complete change
OF policy of the Federal government,
! in prosecutions for violations of in
ternal revenue laws, has been ordered
by Attorney-General Wickersham. on
instructions from President Taft, at
! least. so far as Kansas is concerned
Governor Stubbs yesterday received
copy of the letter written by Mr..
Wickersham to Federal District At
torney Bone.
The letter admits that there was
just ground for Governor Stubb's COM
plant the the government was aid
ing violators of the liquor law in pro-
hibition states. The letter follows:
my attention has been called to
the attitude of the Department with
respect to prosecutions of offenses
against the internal revenue laws,
and much complaint has been made
by reason of the fact that in states,
the policy of whose laws forbid traf-
fic in liquor, the United States gov
ernment is clearly aiding and abet-
ting in the violations of these laws by
compromising proceedings for the en-
forcement of the internal revenue
laws by the mere payment of money
penalties.
This seems a just subject of re-
proach. Governor Stubbs has brought
the matter to the attention Of the
president who feels as above indi-
Gated with respect to the matter. You
are therefore instructed in the fu-
ture, in prosecutions for violations of
the internal revenue laws, as a gen.
eral policy, to refuse to compromise
all liability by the payment of money
penalties, and to endeavor to secure
conviction and Imprisonment for
some reasonable time in punishment
of this class of offenses."
