Probe Into Activities of
Brewers Is Now Under Way

Pittsburgh. Pa, Feb. 9.-An inquiry
into the alleged political activities in
Pennsylvania of National and State
breweries organizations was started
by the Federal grand jury here to-
day with United States District Attor-
ney r. Lowry Humes in charge.

Juryroom books and records which the
government officials hoped would
show the tinanCials transactions of
the Brewers Associations which
passed through the bank since 1911.
While the jury was examining
Moore, counsel for the brewers and
the government reached an agree
ment whereby argument on the mo-
ton to withdraw the subpenas,
scheduled for Friday afternoon was
put over until Monday and District
Attorney Humes adjourned the grand
