CANNOT HOLD AUTO
Cannot Hold BOotlegger's AutomO-
bile Is Decision of Oklahoma
Supreme Court

A decision of special interest ir
Ottawa county has just been handed
down by the Oklahoma supreme court
n regard to inter-states violation OF
he liquor laws. The court held that
where an automobile is used by boot
eggers the police authorities have NO
light to seize and hold the car. The
,ourt held that an automobile was
not an appurtenance to the illicit
traffic in the strict sense under which
Ifficers are given the right to seize
property employed for illegal pur-
poses. y
Recently a taxicab driver who was
arrested by Sheriff Freeman and
charged with bringing whiskey into
This county from Joplin brought suit
in the civil court for the recovery Of
his car which had been confscatcF
ny the sheriff. The decision of the
supreme court establishes a prece-
lent in favor of the taxi driver.
There was, however, one dissent
ng opinion to the ruling of the court.
Justice Brett disagreed with his as
;ociates.
He cites section 1905 of the same
statute which makes it unlawful to
ship or in any way convey intoxi-
,ating LIQUOR from one point in the
state to another, and says:
"An auto, cart, wagon or other We
hicle used in such unlawful convey
ance, appertain to and is just as much
IN appurtenance of such unlawful
conveyance as the bar, glasses, fur
niture or fixtures, or the bar room
are appurtenances of the unlawful
sale of liquor over the bar.
'If, under section 3617, we con-
strue the right to seize appurtenances
to be confirmed only to an appurte-
nance used in the illegal sale of in
toxicating liquors, then that would
leave an officer powerlses to seize
liquor that was being illegally trans
ported in his presence, for he derives
the authority, not only to seize the
but also the liquor
from the eama source0
Justice Brett takes the position
that the statute is aimed at every
violation of the prohibitory law, and
that it should be applied in such
broad terms to make secure the re-
suit intended by its provisions.

Among the goods forwarded were
10000 knitted articles and comfort
kits, $500 articles of new clothing foI
French, Italian, Belgian and Serbian
refugee children, and about 5000 Sc
lected secondhand or remade articles
Of clothing.
One American ship has been sup
piled with enough knitted goods, to-
taling $500 pieces, to equip all the
sailors on board. A large number OF
the knitted garments and other COM
forts have been turned over to the
different war relief associations in
Boston, which are in direct communi-
cation with the people of their re-
spective countries, notably the Brit
ish, French, Italian and Belgian as
sociations. Some of the recruits from
Boston for the British and Canadian
forces were supplied with knitted ar
ticles before they left home.
A features of the Comforts For
warding Committees work which has
brought splendid results is the "unit
system" of preparing new garments
for refugee children. Ten of the COM
mittee were first instructed in the
making of q model garment, each OF
the ten instructed ten others and the
latter became captains Of teams OF
ten others whom they in turn in
structed. Two groups Of team cap
tains meet at the committees rooms
every day to receive instructions and
material for use by themselves and
the members of their respective teams
who work at leisure moments at
home. Thus 1110 sewers are banded
together for this particular part OF
the committees program and they
are turning out an average OF over
1000 garments a week. In this work
they have been greatly assited by
one of the patriotic manufacturing
companies of Boston, which offered
and has undertaken to do all the cut
ting required for these garments.
Before beginning to sew for the re-
fugees of any country, the committee
ascertained not only what articles
were needed but also the form and
material desired, so far as was pos
sible. 1t was learned, for instance
that so common an article Of genera
use as a pillow case was, in one coun'
try for which the teams were sewing
very unlike the pillow case OF th'
American home. For knitters, WOO
is sold over the counter, instruction.
are given, and the finished garment
is returned to the committees head
quarters when ready. In addition
there are four knitting machines II
operation, on each Of which it is pos
sible to knit q pair Of socks In 20 min
