LIQUOR OFFENDERS TO FACE
MORE SEVERE SENTENCES

OF the dry laws argue that the Shep-
pard law has been in force for so
long a time that persons arrested for
violating its provisions should expect
no mercy at the hands of the courts
or prosecuting officers. They prob
ably will receive none, it is argued.
Several such cases have been called
before United States Commissioner
Isaac r. Hit the past few days. In
each instance the cases were brought
to the attention of the commissioner
by federal agents, the defendants
having already been before the Police
Court, 1t is stated. and in each in
stance counsel for the accused waived
a preliminary hearing.
Commissioner Hit held the defend
ants in real estate security to await
the action Of the grand jury. and the
required bond was furnished. Two
members of the police woman's bureau
were mentioned as witnesses in one
case, the third witness being an in
ternal revenue officer. It is said an
effort will be made to have the cases
investigated by the grand jury with
out delay.
