.BATSON SAYS HE'LL
|. ENFORCE LIQUOR LAWS
TELLS POLICE CHIEF TO WARN
NEWsDEALERs AGAINST
LIQUOR ADS.

Mayor Batson says that the law pro
hibiting the selling of newspapers and
magazines containing liquor advertise
ments will be strictly enforced in Hat
Itiesburg and today he requested Chief
of police Bennett to take trip to the
news stands and warn the proprietors
and newsboys that if they sold maga-
zines or other periodicals without first
cutting or blotting out the liquor adj
vertisements they would be arrested
Attorney General Ross A. Collins in
Jackson, has said that:
1T is the duty of the officers in every
community in the state to see that
this anti-liquor advertising law is
strictly enforced"
1t is probable that very soon now
everyone who buys foreign paper or
a magazine will get them with whole
pages slashed out, or blotted with
great ink spots to hide the offending
| lines that might tell where a bottle
of beer or a jug of rum can be pur-
chased. s
The newspapers of Mississippi
lstopped printing liquor advertising
| the day before the law went into ef
feet. which was May 16. However, il
is known that here in Hattiesburg the
law seemingly has up to date beer
Overlooked with reference to its appli
cation to magazines and outside news
papers. Now Mayor Batson says tina
| it will be enforced, and nobody mus
sell a newspaper or a magazine tina
contains a liquor advertisement.
There is one ''man," however, wht
can lawfully hand you a foreign news
paper or a magazine that might b.
chuck full of liquor advertisements

Court.
This announcement was made sat
urday afternoon by Judge Paul B.

Among the grounds upon which a
new trial was asked, was one that one
of the jurors had declared, before he
had been finally selected to help try
the case, that he was determined to
hang the man. Leverett's counsel intro
duced an affidavit, signed by. Mac Mel
ton, to this effect. w. G. Blake, a
farmer of the county. is the juror al
legged to have made the statement.
