SOME new laws IN FORCE
NATIONAL BANKS MAY NOT CON.
TRIBUTE TO ELECTION FUNDS.
Alcoholic Liquos When shipped Mus,
show Contents and be Delivered
70 conslgnee Only.

Washington. ID. C--somo OF the
work Of the joint congressional com
mitteo on revision of the laws OF The
United States appears In the recent
act to modify and amend the laws
which become eifective the iirst Of tho
year With the New Year several inn
portant new laws and revlsions and
amendments Of old laws viii appear
for the frat time on the statute books.
Most OF the enactments which effect
radical changes In the laws are amend
ments to existing statutes.
Probably the most important one be
coming operative Is a penal statute
which forbids any national bany TO
make money contribution OF any kind
In connection with an election to any
political Office. Another clause Of this
statute says that II shall be unlawful
for any corporation to make a money
contribution TO any election at which
presidential electors. vice-presidential
electors, or United States senators are
to be voted for.
II a corporation violates this la% It
may be fined $4,000 and the corpora
tion officer making the contribution be
individually fined $1,000 and imprison.
ed in a pententiary for one year. The
national law makers believe that this
statute will effectually break up the
practice OF corporations contributing
to congressional funds.
An effort has been made by congress
70 protect prohibition states from in.
terstate trade in alcoholic fluids within
their borders. sent in from wet
states
A new statute forbids railway EN-.
ployes, express company employees OF
| persons working for other common car
I rlers, delivering alcoholic liquors OF
any kind other than to the person "a
whom the shipment is consigned. a
fine OF $1,000 with two years imprison
ment, is the penalty for violation Of
this law. which is designed to abolish
the blind tiger" business hitherto
carried on through express offices In
! prohibition states.
Every package Of spirituous liquors
must also be plainly marked to show
what It is. II it Is whisky the law de
claTes It must be so labeled.
