court of arbitration and after the de-
cision is made must abide by the re-
suit or suffer the force Of the COM

use all their power by cutting off

Many claim that the right to leave

III treaties made by Former Secre-
tary of State Bryan by which We are
bound to do just that same thing. II
we can do that with each nation by
treaty why not by one big treaty
arrange for arbitration with all the
nations of the world.
1t Is also claimed that we should
not leave the question Of the size of
our army and navy to body outside
this country. But when our army
went to France to fight 1t was put
under the leadership of a French
general and if we could do that for
same thing practically for the pur-

pose Of preserving peace.
Many think it would be to abandon
the Monroe Doctrine but if the prop
osition is studied closely it is seen
that it will make the Monroe Doctrine
universal in its scope and the bless

last week for selling a bo,
illegally ana upon whose premise~
spectacular police raid was conducted
during when 81 bottles Of liquor we're
se. zed and are now being held by he
marshal of the Federal Court.
A surprising development this week
was the application for & noIle pros by
District Attorney Martin, the granting
OF which sQuaShed the entire proceed

Attorney, however substituted a new
indictment under the former charges,
supported by two atfi0avits sworn to by
a Mr.. Perez, who alleged tina he pr
chased from Rinaldi two bottles Of bran
DIV on different occasions, paving So COR
the first and $40 for the second.
Another important aspect Of the ease
was brought up when attorney Molina
on behalf of tie defendant asked that
the liquor seized on the restaurant pre-
misses be returned to Rinaldi on the
ground that his possession of such liquor
was not contrary to the law. Judge
Hamilton reserved his decision on the
application.
Attorney Molina claimed that any indi-
viCual was entitled under the present
. law to be in possession Of any quantity
of liquor aad could even invite his
friends to partake of same without
bre aking any law. He claimed that Ri
naldi was exercising a legal right in be-
ms in possession of the liquor seized
and that no could not lawfully be de-
prived of the anne He asked that the
Marshal of the court be ordered to re-
turn the 80 bottles of booze to the de-

District Attorney Martin opposed the
motion and claimed that it was for the
