REDS TO FIGHT
 DEPORTATIONS
Have Engaged Attorneys in Practically Every City Where Arrests ave Been Made, It Is Stated.

Washington, Jan. 5.--Radicals taken in the government raids on the Com munist and Communist Labor parties nhave all machinery set for fighting desperately against deportation, it was announced today at the department of justice. Lawyers have been cngared in practically every city where r:tIds were made, and the officials predicted they would take advantage If every technicality until their clients actually were aboard vesse's bound fer !I:is. ratlv lands. <
 In view of this information, Assist ant Attorney General Garvan gave in structions to speed the work of com pleting the chain of evidence with which he hopes to make deportation certain.
 Assembling of data concerning the radicals presents the most difficult problem immediately confronting the government, officials said. Mir. Gar van said that, while the government believed proof of membership in either organization to be sufficient basis for deportation, there must be considered the likelihood that many of the per- sons held might attempt to show they renounced their utilization prior to the governments declaration that the en- tire alien membership cf the Coinmun- ist and Communist Labor parties were deportable subjects
 Although nearly 5000 persons have been arrested since the latest radical raid was started last Friday night, de- partment of justice agents over the country still were seeking out today members of the Communist and Com munist Labor organizations who had escaped the general dragnet. Apparently New York and Chicago were the chief centers of activity. Several hundred warrants were yet to be served.

COURT CUTS OUT
 ALLNEAR BEERS
Constitutionality of the Volstead Enforcement Act is Upheld in Decision Rendered T0day-In- functions Dismissed. ----

Washington, Jan. 5.-The prohibi- tion enforcement act, defining as in toxicating and beverage containing one-half of one per cent or more of alcohol, was declared constitutional today, by the supreme court divided 5 to 4.
 Proceedings brought by Jacob Rup- prt, of New York, ito enjoin the gov ernment from prohibiting the sale of 2.75 per cent beer, were ordered dis missed.
 Ruppert's case was brought under the war time act. He alleged that 2.75 per cent beer was non-intoxiact- ing, but that the Volstead act, by limiting the alcoholic content, pro- hibited the sale of beer manufactured under regulations prescribed under the Lever food control act by Presi- dent Wilson.
 sIf the war power of congress to eff Actively prohibit the manufacture and sale of intoxicating liquors, in order to promote the nations efficiency in men, munitions and supplies is a full and complete as the police power of the states, to effectively enforce such prohibition in order to promote the health, safety and morals of the coun- try" the majority opinion said, 1t is clear that this provision of the Vol stead act is valid and has rendered im- material the question whether plain tiff's beer is intoxicating. For the leg islation' and decisions of the highest courts of nearly all of the states estab- llshes that 1t is deemed impossible to effectively enforce either prohibitory laws or other laws merely regulating the manufacture and sale of intoxicat- ing liquors, if liability or inclusion within the law is made to be depend ent upon the issuable fact whether or not "a particular liquor made or sold as a beverage, is intoxicating. .. - hat the federal government would in attempting to enforce prohibitory law be confronted with difficulties similar to those encountered by the states is obvious; and both the experi- ence of the states and the need of the federal government of legislation de- fining intoxicating liquors as was done in the Volstead act was clearly set forth in the reports of the house judi ciary committee. Furthermore, the attorney general in calling atten- tion so specifically to the claim made
The Prescott daily news., 1920-01-06

in respect to the 2.75 per cent beer, had pointed out to congress that defi- milton of intoxicating liquor by fixed standards was essential to effective enforcement of the prohibition law. It is therefore clear both that congress might reasonably have considered some legislative definition of indicat- ing liquor to be essential for effective enforcement of prohibition and also that the definition provided by the Vol stead act was not an arbitrary one."
