JUDGE HAND REFUSES
TO HALT ENFORCEMENT
OF V0LSTEAD MEASURE

New York, Nov. 14.-Federal Judge
Learned Hand refused today to
grant injunctions restraining enforce
ment of the Volstead prohibition act.
Jacob Rupert and company, brew
ers, for whom Elihu Root was coun-
sci, sought an injunction so that sale
of 2.75 per cent beer might be re-
sumed. Dryfoos, Plumb and com
pany, in another proceeding, sought
permission to remove distilled spirits
from bond.
Federal Judge John C. Knox, in
decisions handed down this afternoon
in similar cases also held that the pro-
hibition laws are constitutional.
81 hold that the wartime prohibi-
.tion act remains valid exercise Of
the congressional power" Judge Hand
said in his decision. Though the sole
justification of the wartime prohibit
tion act is to prohibit the sale of In
toxicants it may be impossible eff
fectivelv to accomplish that end with
out including all kinds of beer"

AFRICAN CAMPAIGN COSTLY.
Demand Prom capetown For Search
ING investigation,

correspondence Associated Press.l
London Feb. 26.---According to in
formation received here from Cape
town n demand has sprung up there
for searching investigation into the
manner In which the British campaign
was conducted In East and Central Az
r!ca after General SHUTS had reln-
pushed command to come to England.
When he left II was believed that the
campaign had been virtually con-
cluded.
Owen Letcher formerly an officer in
the East African expeditionary force,
reviews the campaign In series OF ar
ticles In the Cape Timese and strongly
advocates commission Of inquiry. Be-
lief prevails In Capetown. 1t Is said
that the sport OF yachting at Dar-es-
Salaam and elephant hunting In the
interior were largely responsible for
the prolongation of the fighting.
The campaign is said to have ex.
ceeded the cost of the Boer war,
amounting to about $500, 600 900. To
the casualties, which were heavy In
killed and wounded. must be added
many men who will suffer from fever
for the rest OF their lives.
The<work OF the Portuguese colonial
forces is criticised also the huge head
quarters STATS maintained by the Brit
ish hundreds Of miles from the scenes
Of the actual fighting.
Y Discussing the Portuguese, Letcher
writes: In common Justice to our
forces 1t must be set on fecsrN that not
only did the Portuguese colonial army
put up poor defence against the ma
rauding Germans. but that their pres
ence was very substantial advantage
to Won Lettow, German commander)
inasmuch as they frequently embar-
raised oue- movements and surrendered
to the enemy guns, rifles, machine
guns and supplies of which the Ger
mans were badly in need.
The enga cement at Nhamacurra.
about thirty miles from Quelimane,
which was fought in the beginning Of
July 1918. was particularly disas-
trous event for us, since after the
Portuguese had lost two guns, with a
lot Of other equipment, and thu native
troops despite the efforts Of their Off
GERS had broken in disorder, the en-
envy attacked Maj. Gore Brownies King
African Rifles detachment and largely
thru the employment OF the two cap
tured guns, inflicted severe defeat to
U.s."
