Hear Prosecutor Schwartz
Tell What Must be Done to
Punish VioIatorS of
Liquor Law.

Refuting the insinuations being
circulated by the city administration
that the blame for the nOn-enforce-
ment of the liquor laws in South
Bend should be placed on the shoul-
ders of the prosecutor, County Pros.
Samuel p. Schwartz. Monday morn
ing pointed out to the members Of
the South Bend and Mishawaka Min
isterial association where the blame
for existing conditions in the city be-
longs
Mr. Schwartz appeared before the
members Of the association at their
request. and answered all Of the
questions of the association regard
ing the present situation in regard
70 violations of the prohibition law
In answer to a question as TO
tween the administration and the
county prosecutors office, Mr..
Schwartz explained that his office
had at all times stood, and is still
standing, TO cooperate with the po-
lice in bringing law violators TO JUS
tice But ne declared that the same
could not be said OF the police de-
partment as a whole.
Must Have Evidence.
He explained that in order to OBJ
tain convictions of violators of the
law. there must be sufficient evidence
TO convict. and that in many in
stances the police failed 70 submit
sufficient evidence when the defen-
dants are placed on trial at the city
court
The county prosecutor denied the
insinuations of the city administra-
ton tEat he is aiding in the non-en-
forcement of the law by failing TO
prosecute in the higher courts cases
that have been dismissed or appealed
in the city court and relied or taken
up TO the circuit or superior courts.
The prosecutor explained the
mode Of procedure in the lower
court in regard TO liquor violators
who demand a jury trial. He de-
clared that il has been the expert
ence of his office that when a jury
trial is granted in the city court, a
Jury is secured that will under no
convict and the case
is lost by the state. In order to cir
cumvent such situation, Mr..
Schwartz explained that whenever
charged with violating the
LIQUOR law demands A jury in the city
court. the case against him there is
dismissed. and the charges imme-
diately refiled in either the circuit
or superior courts where a compe-
tent Jury is obtainable.
Pending I'm Higher Courts.
The prosecutor showed the minis
ters the hand OF the administration

telling Investigators of conditions in
the city chat many liquor cases had
been dismissed by the county prose-
cutor. falling TO tell them why the
cases had been dismissed, and omit
ting wholly the fact that they were
relied in the higher courts and are
now awaiting trial. He also explained
the congestion of the higher courts,
and told the mem bers Of the associa-
ton that these cases would be tried
as soon as they can he reached on
the court calendar Some OF these
cases have already been tried, the
prosecutor explained.

The answer as the government sees it, as the manu-
facturer, producer, consumer are beginning to see it is in the
transportation situation-the taking over of the marketing prob
lem into our hands as Washington is doing, as Detroit is at
tempting to do, as Cleveland is doing, as a hundred municipal
tiles, large and small, all over the United States are trying to do.
The results elsewhere have exceeded the most optimistic expec-
tations. Memphis has caught the impulse, and we are making
plans for a ship-bv-truck expedition that will prove an eye
opener to future possibilities.
The news scimitar. (Memphis, Tenn.) 1907-1926, 1919-07-19

Every plan to obtain for the farmer a greater share of
that which he produces and at the same time to reduce the cost
of living to the consumer demands our immediate attention and
earnest consideration. Everywhere between the producer and
the consumer one hears 'Somebody is making big profits"
Who is this somebody? ''Not we" say the farmers. ''Not we,"
say the packers. "Not We" say the manufacturers. "Surely,
not we," say the railroads. eve can scarcely live" justly de-
clare the retailers. Yet somewhere in the process of distribution
the price mysterously quadruples. What's the answer?

As the Government
Sees the Situation

Hon. John Z. Esch, of Wis
c%onsin, chairman of the house
committee on interstate and for
eign commerce, says, in a recent
issue of a truck transportation
bulletin published by National
Automobile Chamber of Com
merCc:
development Of motor truck
routes as the short line railroads
have been developed, as feeders
20 the railroads, with through
bills of lading and a division of
the through rates, is we'll
worthy the consideration of con-
gress. The use of motor truck
routes as an aid in transporta-
ton is in process Of evolution,
and | believe it will be a big fac
tor in the future.
Il have the utmost confidence in the
ultimate development Of motor truck
service, and believe that we might
properly legislate with regard to this
new service"

LANCASTER, PA, April 80, 1919.
Local buyers say they don't have to
skirmish around the county looking for
tobacco crops, because the growers are
now bringing samples of their crops to
the dealers offices. The fact is that
not enough buyers have been out lately
to do much purchasing. and it was
quite natural for growers who wanted
to get rid of their holdings to go after
the buyers if the buyers wouldn't come
to see them. The packers make the
prediction that the growers who have
been holding their crops for prices 80
much above the market will, in the
end, be among those receiving low
prices for their holdings. So far, about
sixty per cent of the county's new crop
has been sold, and, considering that the
seed beds for the 1919 crop are already
made, or in the making, it is not won
dered at that growers want to sell.
The cooperative packing concerns,
as the growers organizations may be
termed, can take care of but COM
paratively small part of the big 1918
crop, and with what they have added
to the purchases of the big and little
concerns, enough still remains undis-
posed of to create serious situation
for growers. 1t was all very well for
growers, and the people who were pat
ting them on the back, some time ago,
to talk about growers having their to-
bacco packed by experts and laid away
for better times and better prices. If
anybody can tell when that happy time
is due, he will be conferring favor on
the trade generally.

EDGERToN, WIS.,. May 8, 1919.

EDGERTON. Wis. May 8, 1919.
There is quiet bit of buying of the
remnants of the 1918 tobacco crop still
going on, reducing the unsold fraction
considerably each week. The selection
of the crops suitable for binder pur-
poses Is slow business and trading on
the balance of the crop is likely to ex-
tend for some time yet. Prices are
ranging all the way from 20 cents down
to Is and even lowerr but growers gen.
orally are willing to accept the situa-
tion and realize on their holdings.
However, there promises to be quite a
little tobacco held over on the farms
by growers still holding out for better
figures. The sale of two or three of
the early packings of new leaf is re-
ported, giving these dealers an oppor-
tunity to reinvest at lower prices.
Warehouse handling is proceeding
rather slowly owing to the shortage of
help everywhere, so the season is likely
to drag on indefinitely.
Another cold, rainy week has delayed
farm work and likewise the starting of
the plant beds, very few of which are
showing the young plants.
The shipments out of storage reach
$50 cases to all points since last report.

Ohio.
DAYTON, ONO, May1, 1919



There is practically nothing doing in
the 1918 crop. Farmers are still up in
the air, while the packers seem to feel
that they can wait a while longer.
Most of the crops that have been sold
have brought fifteen cents, while occa-
sionally one goes at twelve cents. 1t
will take compromise between farm
ers and packers, at about fifteen cents
to lift this crop, and until the farmers
get ready to take this price, the pack
ers insist that they will not buy.
This condition will have considera-
BILE effect on the next crop. There will
be less acres planted than during the
past two or three years, but to what
extent the farmers will actually cut
our growing tobacco depends entirely
upon the movement of the 1918 crop.
One can ride in any direction and find
plant beds that have not even been
spaded up, while big percentage of
the farmers have not yet sown their
seed. If they change their minds, it
will naturally mean late tobacco.

ment of one packer, yesterday. mot

preston of another. ttSure, things are
moving fairly well, with u.s., was the
comment of another, manufacturers

for such goods as they need for imme-
late consumption. Binders, for instance; |;
there's rather surprisingly large de-
mand for force-sweated binders. From
such random comments as these, it
may be gathered that there are no i'm
mediate prospects of revival of any
real market activity. At the same
time, it would seem that the so-called

furnish the only relief from absolute
inertia, while reacting little upon the
general market, are, in reality, much
less OF q negligible quantity than is
generally supposed. Leaf.

SPRINGFlEI4D, MASS, April %, 1919.
Tobacco beds in the Connecticut Val
ley received setback from the sharp
drop in temperature last Thursday and
Friday nights. Thermometers regis
tered as low as % degrees in many
towns and plants lin beds which were
not protected, by m extra covering
were killed Ungerminated seed
probably escaped injury, but, growers
who have planted terminated seed
(ssed which is allowed to sprout in
pans in the house before being sown)
will in many instances wait in vain
for plants to appear. The damage,
while extensive, does not represent any
formidable money loss and at this stage
the seed beds can easily be resown.

mary tests for the trans Atlantic
flight. The officers are expected to

made trial flight, her performances
are kept a secret.
1t had been expected that the NC-1
would have the honor Of carrying the
American colors in the first trans
Atlantic flight, but that airship
recently was damaged and is now be-
ing dismantled.
