RULING IS MADE ON
STORING OF LIQUOR
Supreme Court Justice De-
cides Whisky Transporter
ton to Home Legal.

washington-S Storage OF lawfully
acquired liquors in commission ware
houses and the transportation OF such
stocks TO the home Of the owner is not
prohibited by the Volstead act under
a decision handed down Monday by
the supreme court
In passing upon the appeal OF VIII
liam G. Street OF New York from de-
csions OF lower courts, refusing TO en-
Join internal revenue officials from
selling liquors he had placed in a
room rented from safe deposit com
pany. the supreme court reversed the
lower courts and held the iniunctions
should be granted
The effect of this ruling had not
been fully appraised by the internal
revenue and prohibition enforcement
officials. The belief was expressed,
however. that the result might be the
release of some 100000 gallons OF
intoxicating beverage stored In ware
houses since January 16, 1920.
Records on file at Washington show
that in addition to immense quantities
OF liquors purchased and stored by in
dividual consumers. there were in stor-
age when the Nostead act became eff
fective, large stocks held by hotels and
restaurants as reserve. Whether these
later stocks come within Mondays rul.
ing has not been determined. 1t was
anticipated that test cases would be
filed soon on this and similar aues-
tons arising from the undetermined
scope of the new Interpretation of the
Volstead act.
Justice Clark, who rendered the
opinion, held that the transportation
Of loquor from warehouse storage to
the owners home would be legal, il
the liquor had been lawfully acquired
and for lawful purpose. He said
that the act is understood by the of
ficers charged with its execution az
permitting such transportation as
shown by the provisions and the regu-
lations of the bureau of internal reve
nue. authorizing permits for the trans
portation of liquor from one perma-
nent residence of an owner to another
In the case of his removal, although
no such transfer is in terms provided

Harding Delivers First
Address at Border CITY

Brownsville, Tex.-Facing a border
crowd in which were many citizens OF
Mexico and several officials of the
Mexican government, President-elect
Harding proposed Thursday foreign
policy directed toward peace and
friendship, but demand always full pro-
lection OF American nationality and of
American citizens wherever they may
go.
The address, which was his first pre-
pared public utterance since his cleo
ton to the presidency, was delivered
from stand on the Fort Brown parade
grounds without few hundred yards
Of the international boundary.
In the course of his address, devoted
jointly to the significance of the Ar
mistice Day anniversary and to the
country's foreign relations, he did not
mention Mexico by name, nor did he
refer directly to the league of nations
I'VE crave fraternity" he said, I'VE
wish amicable relations everywhere
We offer peace and choose to promote
It, but we demand our freedom and our
own America. ! believe an America
eminent on the seas, respected in
every avenue Of trade, will be safer at
home and greater in influence through
out the world. like to think of an
America whose citizens are ever seek
ing the greater development and en-
larged resources and widened influ-
ence Of the republic, and like to think
Of q government which protects its
citizens wherever they so on a lawful
mission, anywhere under the shining
sun"
