les these extracts, and it was recently
called to the attention of the manage
ment of the house that, in arguing the
Fuller near-beer case, the point was
made that, to bar near-beer would
prevent the sale of these extracts at
the soda founts of the city.
This point was not touched upon
in the decision of the supreme court,
but NOVEL; & Co., in asking for rul-
ing, state that these extracts contain
so per cent of alcohol. The law does
not attempt to fix the percentage of
alcohol that may be considered intoxi-
eating. but it is a fact, known to many,
that lemon extract, if drank in suff-
cient quantity, will produce intoxica-
ton.
! The department of justice will hand
down an opinion on this point in a
few days, and it is probable that ii
will be held that, since lemon and
vanilla extracts are not recognized as
an intoxicant, it is not a violation OF
the law to sell them in Mississippi

ARE VANILLA And
Lemon EXTRACTS
IN PALE OF LAW?
Legal Lights II Those Products
Can be Sold.

Jackson, Miss, Sept. 19,-Can lemon
and vanilla extracts be sold in Missis-
sippi under the provisions Of the state
prohibition law? This question has
been raised by New Orleans house
which has been doing business in
Mississippi for years, and the depart
ment of justice has been asked for d
ruling on this point.
Lemon and vanilla contain so per
cent of alcohol, but these extracts con-
form to both the national and state
pure food laws and have always been
allowed to be sold in the state in the
past, and it is not probable they will
be excluded at this time. They are
used largely by housekeepers and at
all soda fountains, and to bar them be-
couse of the alcohol would probably
cause an eruption. Yet, under a strict
Interpretation Of the prohibition law,
supported by several decisions of the
state supreme court, the sale of these
extracts are in violation of the laws
Of the state.

has done business in Mississippi for

The LOAN SHARKS
Teeth ARE PULLED

Atlanta, Ca, Sept. 19.-That the
ravages of the loan sharks have been
effectually curbed since the agitation
of a few months ago; that not an ar
rest for debt is known to have been
made in the past two months and that
the workingman is learning. that in
the Legal Aid Society he has a friend
to protect him from illegal claims is
brought out in the report of the So
ciety's lawyers, made at a meeting
of the organization in the Offices of
w. Woods White, president Of the
society.
Atlantans will remember the cru
SADIE against the loan shark evil wag-
ed before the grand jury few months
ago, a campaign eliminating in indict-
ments against dozens of loan agents
accused of lending money at Illegal
rates and collecting claims by Illegal
methods and through alleged colin
sion with bailiffs and justices in GER
tain courts. The Legal Aid Society
was an outgrowth of that campaign,
formed to give protection to the vic
tins of the sharks" to provide for
them free legal advice and defense,
and to assure for him fair deal
when arrested or oppressed in the col
lection of debts. The report of the
society's lawyers shows what good
work has already been accomplished.
