TO STOP LIQUOR TRAFFIC
Suit Brought to EMO Common
Carriers From Bringing
Booze Into State


Attorney General West yesterday
filed in the supreme court OF the
Unuited States suit directed at
common car iers bringing liquor into
the state 1t also includes an attack
on all parties in Oklahoma who have
federal licenses TO sell liquor. These
licenses, he claims, are prlma facie
evidence of intent to break the state
laws.
The petition requests that the rail-
roads be enjoined from hauling liqu-
or into the old Indian territory and
Usage nation and other sections that
were under government wardenshlp
before statehood This action con-
templates annulment Of the charters
OF roads continuing to violate the
state laws. t
All the interstate railroads are
named. Holders Of federal licenses
described az. iplmical to the
states dispensary system, which I'M
dertakes handling of all the liquor.
The attorney general holds that the
old treaties covering the Five Tribes
and forbidding Importation or sale of
liquors are still binding.
