YANKS' WOUNDS CALLED
NOBLE BADGE OF HONOR
President Wilson Declares America
Will Never Forget Sacrifices
Soldiers Have Made.

NEW YORK. March 6. 49, President
Wilson. in a statement published in
the latest issue of Right About, the
official publication of Debarkation
Hospital No ) of this city, declared
that America would not forget the
sacrifices that American soldiers
wounded in France had made and
that their wounds are the noblest
badges of honor any man has ever
worn" The statement was sent to
the magazine just after the President
rad delivered his opera house address.
II could tell you" he wrote, what
the sacrifices you have made have
mean. to the world. I could tell you
what history FOR all time TO come Will
say of you and the sunerings you
Rave experienced on your great cru
sade But these things other men
will tell you.
Il prefer to remind you that the
wounds you bear are the nOblest
badges Of honor any man has ever
worn: that they eXalt YOU TO a su-
preme place in the minds and hearts
of your countrymen and of all the
world / prefer to assure you that
America realizes that she has no more
solemn obligations, no more patriotic
duty than to express in practical
terms the gratitude that every Amer
ican-man, woman and chlld-feeis
for every one of you.

ARGUES BONE-DRY LAW
NULL|F|ES ALL OTHERS
Attorney Miller Contends Zone and
Sheppard Acts Stand as
Repealed.

Arguments were heard before Judge
! j ohm p. Mcmahon in the United States
branch of the Police Court yesterday
afternoon on demurrer filed several
days ago by Attorney Robert I. Mil
Ter. representing Frank Farnsworth
and Paul L. Snowden, to ruling of
the court involving interpretations of
the Reed bone-dry amendment apply
ing to the District of Columbia the
Presidents proclamation, known as
the military zone law, and the Shep-
pard prohibition law. The govern
ment was represented by Assistant
District Attorney Ralph Given.
The arguments consumed more than
two hours. Judge Mcmahon took the
matter under advisement.
Attorney Miller argued that when
the Reed bone-dry amendment be-
came effective in the District of Co
lumbia the military zone law and
the Sheppard prohibition law were
nullified. 1t is admitted in the argu-
ment of the contestant that the mill
tary zone law is effective in so far as
it applies to the bringing or IN
toxicants into the actual zone OF
not include all of the District of Co
1umbia, but that that law, being re-
peaIed by the bone-dry law, does not
prohibit whisky or other intoxicants
from being brought into the territory
outside of the military zone.
Then as to the Sheppard law. which
prohibited the bringing in of intoxi-
cants except for sacramental medici-
nal, pharmaceutical, scientific and me
chanicai purposes and for personal
use. 1t was argued. it is only in force
in so far as it applies to the sale of
liquor" the other provisions having
been repealed by the bone-dry law.
The bone dry-law permits the bring
ing in of liquor for the exceptions
noted above in the Sheppard law, ex-
cept personal use"
Farnsworth and Snowden are
charged with the violation of the
military zone law in that they unlaw
fully brought whisky into the mill
tary zone" The case is attracting
general attention of members of the
local bar. If the contention of Attor
ney Miller should be upheld by the
court, large number of cases now on
the docket will be thrown out. for the
reason that as the military zone law
and the Sheppard law would be re-
pealed automatically there is no law
under which to try such cases, the
bone-dry law not providing for any
particular zone.
