SEIZED D. c. LIQUOR
MUST Be RETURNED
Court Of Appeals Sustains De.
cision Affecting Wet Goods
Worth 100000.

=. --sas = Z -
Tile court OF AppsAis, thrsosh
Chief Justice smythe today con-
firmed the rulings of Justice Could.
of the District Supreme Court. and
held that all liquor which was con-
fiscated after February 20. 1918, by
the Police Department, under the pro-
visions OF the Reed bone dry act.
must be returned to the owners. as
1t was not subject to confiscatIon.
This involves something over
100000 worth OF wet goods held in
storage in the District which the po-
lice took from express companies
after the President had signed the
Reed act on his way from Boston to
Washington upon his arrival from his
first European trip. Prior to the Reed
act. il was lawful under the Shepherd
law to bring liquor into the District
for personal use in any quantity de-
sired, providing a prescribed affidavit
to that effect accompanied the ship
ment, but the Shepherd law provided
that a violation OF its provisions
would entitle the police to consfiscate
the liquor.
The Reed Bone Dry Act provided
penalties Cor bringing in any liquor at
all into the District, but made no
specific provision for confiscation. A
large quantity of liquor was In tran
sit to Washington on February ~.
which arrived here on February IS.
and no one seemed to know of the
fact that the President the night be-
fore, had signed the bill. except the
police, who, following Major Pullman s
directions, proceeded to confiscate all
liquor found in the hands of tho ox-
press companies on the morning of
February 25.
The court rendered it's decision in
the case of Gladding Express Com
pany, which first raised the point at
Issue. and holds that the provisions
OF the Sheppard Law cannot be read
into the provisions of the Reed Law
: nd that the Reed Law being without
provision for confiscation, no right
existed on the part of the police de-
partment to take this property.
The Court of Appeals. having final
Jurisdiction in the matter, the opinion
rendered will be conclusive. The
case was contested throughout by
Attorneys Wilton Lambert, r. Il
Yeatman and T. NJ. Wampler, for the
Express Company and by former Cor
poration Counsel Syme and Assistant
Corporation Counsel +. II. stephens

GLASS URGES VIRGINIA
TO RATFY SUFFRAGE
Change of Front Causes Jubilation
Among Women in
Washington.

Secretary Of the Treasury Carter
Glass, known as bitter opponent
of woman suffrage, caused jubilation
in suffrage circles here today by urg-
ing ratification of the Susan B. An
tony amendment by Democratic legis-
latures which have not yet taken
such action, on the ground that the
Democratic party cannot afford to- lose
the favor Of women voters.
The letter. written to Senator Mapp,
one of the -, rnocratic leaders in Vir-
ginia, says:
Needless TO say ! have no con-
cealment to ke of my view of the
strategy OF the suffrage situation.
assume that IT Is well known that !
have been and am utterly opposed
primarily to woman suffrage, espe-
cially'by Federal amendment. but be-
ing opposed to a thing does not make
me refuse to sec facts as they exist.
Even without constitutional amend
ment women have the right to vote
in every pivotal state in the Union.
The simple sensible question is:
DO we want them to vote with the
Democratic party in the next Presi-
Dental election or with the Repub.
lican party? DO we want the Fed
eral amendment. the ratification
which seems inevitable. applied by a
friendly Congress and a Democratic
Congress or BY an adverse Congress
and a ftephblican President? Are we
going to refuse or repel woman votes
merely because we did not want
women to have the ballot?
"This II the case stripped or
rhetoric and lafnentatlon. and
should say that the Virginia general
assembly would not be-Nvilling 60 de-
eide it precipitately or rashly"
Suffrage leaders expressed surprise
on learning OF the letter, having csta.
logued the Secretary as hopeless"
They look upon tho latter as one OF
the most important contributions to
their cause since the amendment Was
adopted because OF Secretary Glaze
Influence In the Democratic party.
and the fact that he is a Scntberner.
