Department Of Justice to-day asked the
United states Court for the Eastern Dis
trict Of Pennsylvania to pass upon test
case here 80 that In the event OF ruling
In favor of the Government every brewer
n beer or dealer in that beverage con-
tanning more than one-half Of 1 per
cent. OF alcohol now doing business can
be at once prosecuted.
The case before the court Is the Gov
eminent suit against the Bergner d
Eagle Brewing Company, charged with
violation of the war time prohibition law.
The company had filed a demurrer ask
ing for dismissal Of the suit on the
ground that the Government did not al
lege that the beer II manufactured was
intoxicating and the proceedings to-day
were largely confined to an argument on
the demurrer the Government asking the
court to dismiss It. Decision was re-
served.
Theodore r. Jenkins. counsel for the
brewing company, argued for the dis
missal OF the suit on the ground that
several Federal courts had settled the
points at Issue and that other United
States courts should follow the precedent
established by sustaining demurrers OF
the brewers and retailers until the SUI
preme Court had decided an appeal.
Judge oliver b. Dickinson asked WILL
liam l.. Frierson, Assistant Attorney
General, as to the necessity of a ruling
in the eastern Pennsylvania Jurisdiction
when there had been rulings in other
courts and an appeal taken.
There is no ruling that is control
ling" Mr.. Frierson replied. Whatever
was said at New York or Baltimore will.
of course, be considered. but those de-
cisions are not binding here. There Ia
a duty that rests with every district
court Judge before whom suits are
brought to determine In his own way
the meaning of the act of Congress. The
Department of Justice must enforce the
law, and IL 1t should allow violations to
PROCEED while waiting for a decision
from the Supreme Court 1t would DO

provide" Her complaint papers allege
that shortly after she was married to
Mr. Vingut in Wilmington. Del. in 1910
he developed IAN abnormal appetite for
liquor and acquired "a worthless and
shiftless disposition" also that he dis
played no affection toward her and no
interest in their home. Finally, she
states. she was compelled to leave him
in 1917. His failure to provide for her.

means on his part. while she herself has

tions. was filed Immediately after her

land find that for the ten months up
70 and including April of the last fiscal
year we collected from wines. distilled
spirits and other intoxicating beverages
$406.274.000. The estimated receipts for
May and June to complete the fiscal year
bring the grand total up to $3.50, 900, 900.
In addition the Treasury gained heavily
from income and excess profits taxes
arising from the liquor business. That

"If prohibition were not in effect we
would under the new revenue law re-
ceive for the six months from June 80
to December 80. 1919, approximately
1895, 100000. For the whole fiscal year
ending June 80 next our receipts with
out prohibition would be $685., 200, 900.
In addition we would have received in
come tax and excess profits taxes suf-
fcient to bring the grand total to ST.
600, 900, 900.
This revenue. which Is fully three
times as great as we can expect from
the tariff. is now gone. All the rev.
enue officials look forward to in lieu OF
this $1,000, 10000 is about $40, 900. 900
which may be collected on non-beverage
alcohol. This loss of revenue presents
problem which may ultimately call for
the issue Of additional bonds.
! THE soft drink and Ice cream peo-
pie who are benfsed by prohibition are
asking that their taxes be reduced, as
are many other tradesmen who sought
the destruction OF the liquor business.
What Is now collected from them ia
insignificant when compared with what
the Government loses from prohibition.
In addition to the 81 900, 00O, 900 loss
the revenue officials are put to Increased
expense which must be drawn from
taxes to enforce the prohibition law.
TT is fair in view of the insistent
demands for a reduction of taxes that

revenues should be made known"

SWIFT AGAIN DENIES
PACKERS COLLISION
Terms Commission Report
Mere Control PROPAGANDA.


CHICAGO, July 11.--Lous r. Swift,
president Of Swift 4 CO., to-day issued
this statement:
This latest report Of the Federal
Trade Commission In merely an attack
upon large and successful business or
sanisations, and should be resented by
All Americans who are proud of tho
industrial progress of the nation, II
contains nothing new. and 10 an out
growth OF the former discredited Heney
ex-parto invest ieation
This report, 20 far an arm informed,
contains absolutely no evidence of COL
fusion among the I'VE largest packers,
and say for Swift q Co., as 1 have said
many times. that we have no agreement
or any Kind with any other packer to
Affect the prices OF live stock or meats.
The manner in which the Trade Com
mission juggles figures and resorts to
sensauonalism betrays the inAncertty Of
the commission. We are living UP to
both the spirit and the letter of the law.
and want to cooperate with the Gov
ernment in every helpful and construc-
tive way. but we must protest against
the methods used by this important
branch OF the Government I say that
the large packers and their Individual
businesses are public beneft and a
needed factor in keeping down the
spread between live stock and meat
prtcea
"This report is put ou. now as a part
OF the propaganda in which the Trade
Commission. with others, Is engaged
seeking to subject the packing industry
and other lines Of business to the arbi.
trary control OF subordinate Government
ofiicials through n license system. 1t is
to be regretted that in these days, when
the public feels keenly the pressure OF
high prices. Government body does not
give out facts respecting prices and
profits This has never been done fairly
by the Federal Trade Commission as
regards tho packing industry. although
the commission has constantly had the
most complete information In its possess
sion.
mo ono disputes that out OF the total
receipts OF the packers derived from the
products Of animals about IS per cent.
10 paid out for the live animals them
selves About IS per cent. is paid out
for wages, transportation and other such
expenses. About per cent, on this turn
over 10 earned by the packer as net
profit, and no one disputes that this
amount IL but a small fraction of a
cent per pound. And that It Is 20 neg
llgible as not in any event to affect the
prico which the consumer pays for meats
THE report Just issued by tho Trade
Commission and its discussion OF the
number OF subsidiary companies. and It's
calculation OF percentages OF the classes
Of business handled by the packers. are
not only erroneous. but are entirely i'm
material to the real question in which
the public Is interested. namely. why
are prices high7 I do not believe tina,
| the findings of such a prejudioed and
| unfair report should be used. TO influence
| public opinion or as a basis for the
| radical legislation that has been intro
duced at waslnin gton.''
