JUDGE SCORES EVADER
Raps Rockford Brewer for Attempt Ia
Set the Dry Law Aside.

Rockford tIlll beer peddlers were
recently brought before Judge Lands
in the federal court. and the judge
told them in very plain language what
he thinks of their efforts to violate
the nti-saloon laws in Rockford.
This is what he said to John Petritz,
president Of the Rockford Brewery
association. Petritz explained why his
beer was peddled by expresmen and
not by employees OF. the company The
judge said;
so YOU are held to he law ahid-
ing citizen You brew beer in a dry
town; locate a branch in a wet town,
have your patrons sign a form so you
can deliver beer in dry territory, and
then you call yourself abiding, do
you"
This is the way the law was evaded :
Earl Biewfeld, manager of the Be
lott branch office, is said to have gone
from Rockford to Beloit every morn :
ing, opened the brewery company's
lock box, took out the orders, depos-
tied the money to the credit of the
Beloit branch in a Beloit bank, and
then returned to Rockford and turned
the orders over to Frank PetritZ, in
the Rockford office.
Commenting on the brewers meth
DDS, Judge Lands said: This COM
pany's monkey business back and
forth between Beloit and Rockford is
a mere subterfuge and an evasion of
the dry law which would not fool a
babe in the cradle

many goes out of her way to pick a
quarrel with Holland. as she is doing
now. 1t is better to pay no attention
to her ostensible grounds and TO ask
instead what she has to make out of
the quarrel. If Germany in going TO
restore the empire of Charles V. she
certainly cannot leave Holland out
of it, and the Dutch colonies would
be much more than an equivalent for
