Government Wins in
4 Oleomargarine Suit

Government revenue officers have au-
thority to break indoors with search
warrants to enforce the law regulating
the sale and manufacture Of oleomar-
garine, It was decided today by the SUI
preme Court. The court held the revenue
officers must use extreme measures In
enforcing the "oleo" law, as they are
authorized in search for ''moonshine"
LIQUOR and other contraband.
The decision was made In the appeal
of the Government from a decision Of
the Federal court in Kentucky quashing
an indictment against B. H. and F. d.
Barnesy OF Louisville, who stopped off,
GERS from entering their creamery at
the point Of revolvers. The lower court
held the Barnes brothers had committed
no ofrense, although the revenue men
had search warrant looking for oleo-
margarine upon which taxes had not
been paid.
