LIQUOR DEALERS
VOTE TO CLOSE

stood that this plant will also manu-
facture near beei," containing less
than one-half OF one per cent OF al
.cohol.
Wholesale liquor houses and saloons
were practically stormed, especially the
former, by large crowds Saturday night
who were anxious TO lay in little sup
ply for after today. The crowd was 30
great at one wholesale house that two
officers were assigned there TO keep the
crowd in line and orderly while laying
in their supply OF liquors. In many in
stances saloons sold all the whiskey
they. had in stock Saturday night.
In case any attempt is made TO seize
the remaining stock il is understood
that the saloon men will resist TO pro
duce a test case OF the Loose law. The
decision OF the liquor association TO
close the saloons and at the same time
resist @ly seizure, should such be at
fempted. came following the reading Of
a legal opinion by Phillip l.. Garrss-.
According TO his Interpretation ~ the
law, as told by Edward C. Krause, presi-
dent Of the Liquor Dealers Association,
no seizure is legal, unless there's
warrant for the seizure and no warrant
is legal unless the person who swears
the warrant actually witnessed the
transaction between the liquor dealer
and the purchaser. This opinion is con
tested by the Anti-Saloon League. The
Rev. e. C. Prettyman. Antl-SalOon
League superintendent for the Delaware
and Maryland territory, declared
warrant can be sworn not only when
the sale OF liquor is witnessed but when
the sale is suspected. The point in the
law about which the 'drys" and 'Nvets"
disagree is found in article Z Of the
Loose Anti-Shipplng Law, passed by
the Legislature in the 1917 session. The
law gives to every justice OF the peace
the right to issue a warrant for search
and seizure Of liquor not only upon
oath or examination that any person
IS manufacturing. storing or keeping for
sale" etc. but even IT, to quote the
law, 1.-THE afflant" has cause TO believe
and does believe that such liquors are
being manufactured. sold, offered, kept
or stored for sale or barter in any house,
building or other place named therein.
cOntrary to the provisions OF this act"
The point OF difference that IS likely
to arise An a contest is whether the seiz-
ure is legal upon a warrant based on
mere belief OF the afflant who witnessed
the sale or barter. Mr.. Prettyman states
that should any resistance be offered
by the liquor men upon attempted seiz-
ure in case any sales are made, a con-
test Will be made OF the case.
As TO what will be done with the
stocks OF liquor. Mr.. Prettyman did
not wish TO speak on behalf OF the
league, but It is his personal belief that
the stocks should be left alone unless
the dealers attempt to sell.
