ashington.-Storage Of lawfully ac-
quired liquors in commercial ware
houses and the transportation of such
stocks to the home of the owner is not
prohibited by the Volstead act under
decision handed down by the supreme
court.
In passing upon the appeal of Will
liam G. Street, of New York, from de-
cisions of lower courts, refusing to en-
join internal revenue officials from
seizing liquors he had placed in a room
rented from a safe deposit company,
the supreme court reversed the lower
courts and held that the injunctions
should be granted.
The effect of this ruling had not
been fully appreciated by internal rev.
enue and prohibition enforcement Off
cials. The belief was expressed, how
ever, that the result might be the re-
lease of some 100000 gallons of In
toxicating beverages which have been
stored in warehouses since January l6,
1920.
Records on file here show that In
addition to immense quantities OF
liquors purchased and stored by indi-
vidual consumers there were in storage
when the Volstead act became effective
large stocks held by hotels and restau-
rants as reserves. Whether these lat
ter stocks come within the ruling has
not been determined. 1t was antici-
pated that test cases would be filed
soon on this and similar questions aris-
ing from the undetermined scope Of the
new Interpretation of the Volstead act.
Justice Clark, who rendered the opin-
ion, held that the transportation or
liquor from warehouse storage to the
owners home would be legal, it the
liquor had been lawfully acquired and
for a lawful purpose, he said:
"That transportation of the liquors
Is not such as Is prohibited by the
section, is too apparent to justify de-
tailed consideration of the many pro-
visions of the act inconsistent with
construction which would render such
removal unlawful, and that the act is
understood by the officers charged with
its execution as permitting such trans
portation, is shown by the provision
of the regulations Of the Bureau of In
ternal revenue authorizing permits for
the transportation of liquor"
Permanent residence of an owner
determines the legality Of purchases
and whether the stored stock had been
obtained prior to the effective date of
the Volstead act. This was expected
to result in more stringent regulations
with respect to Withdrawals of bever-
ages from bonded warehouses, but the
same regulations can not be made to
apply to ordinary storage warehouses.
Stored stocks, therefore, again are
without the law to great degree, Off
cials said, adding that they anticipated
it's speedy removal from such storage.
