TEST OF DRY LAW
DENIED LIQUOR men
Supreme U. S. Tribunal Holds 1t
Has No Jurisdiction in
Application.


Washington.-The Supreme Court
denied permission for the New Jersey
Retail Liquor Dealers Association to
bring original proceedings in the SUI
preme Court to test the constitution
ality of the rational prohibition amend
ment and enjoin its enforcement in
New jersey
The court held it had no jurisdic-
ton.
In seeking to bring the original pro-
ceedingS the association alleged that
the prohibition amendment interfered
with the state police powers and was a
violation of the fifth amendment, pro-
hibiting the taking of private property
without just compensation.
Chief Justice White, in disposing Of
the motion, however, ignored these
contentious and devoted himself en-
tirely to the question of jurisdiction.
He said the court held that no right
existed by which a citizen of state
could sue that stale without its. con-
sent. In this instance the state of
New Jersey denied that permission.
Arguments on the motion of the state
of Rhode Island for permission to in
stitute original proceedings to test the
constitutionality of the prohibition
amendment and enjoin it's enforcement
in that state were heard by the Su.
preme Court.
Attorney General Herbert A Rice of
Rhode Island attacked the manner in
which the amendment was ratified Ind
contended that it was revolutionary
and invalid. Solicitor General. King
argued that the Supreme Court was
without jurisdiction.
1.-THE exercise of political power by
Congress is by virtue of constitutional
authority" the brief said. 1.-THE de-
PENDANTS threaten acts that are in de-
fiance of existing state power and eX-
listing state law. In so far as they are
able to carry out their threats, they
will in effect interfere with the func-
tions of the state by illegal and I'M
warranted acts. Under these circum-
stances it is the right and duty of the
state to assert its authority and, seek
to maintain it in this court. Whereas,
in this case, the wrongs are threat
ened by officials of the federal govern
ment, who are beyond the territorial
boundaries of the state, this tribunal
is not merely the proper, but the only
tribunal in which the authority of the
state may be vindicated."

DEATH PENALTY PUT
IN SEDITI0N BILL
House to Pass More Stringent
Measure Than the One Ap-
proved by Senate.

.Washington.-The house within the
next two weeks will pass a sedition
bill. more stringent than the one ap-
proved by the senate. Announcement
of the purpose of the house was made
by Representative Hustled of New
York, chairman of the sedition SUBJ
committee of the House Judiciary
Committee
Included in the house measure will
be the death penalty, which the bill
purposes to have inflicted on recon-
mendation of a jury upon those per-
sons whose ACTIVITIES against the gov
erninent lead to the destruction of life.
The house bill also will contain provi-
sion to enable the department of JUS
tice to bring action against American
cftizens-the parlor Bolsheviki-who
seek to- accomplish the same purposes
which have animated the several thou
sands of radical aliens throughout the
country. :.
The house bill when completed will
be a combination of the measure adv0-
Gated by Attorney General A. Mitchell
Palmer, which was introduced by Rep
resentative Davey of Ohio and revi-
sions made by Representative Graham
of Pennsylvania. The latter, it is as
serted, is responsible for the stringent
provisions of the bill. He is believed
to have been responsible for the i1f-
clusion of the death penalty clause,
which reads as follows.
"That whoever incites, sets on foot,
assists or engages in any insurrection
or rebellion against the United States
or the authority or laws, thereof Or
whoever sets on foot ar assists or en-
cages in the use of force or violence,
with intent to destroy or cause to be
destroyed, or change or cause to be
changed, or to overthrow or cause to be
overthrown, the government Of the
United States and the death of any
person or persons is caused or results
directly therefrom, shall be guilty of a
felony, and on conviction shall be pun
ished by death, or shall be imprisoned
not more than twenty years or fined
not more than S20,000 or both, and
shall forever be debarred from holding
office under the United States; pro-
vided, however, that the death penalty
shall not be imposed unless recon-
mended in the verdict of the jury"
