HIGH SPOTS IN new
PROHIBITION LAW
Penalties More Severe Than
In Old Law.

Copies Of the new prohibition
law enacted by the last legisla-
ture, have been received here and
a review of it discloses the fact
that it is much more drastic than
! the old law and the penalties on
conviction are more severe.
Under the prOvsons of the bill
new office has been created, that
of commissioner of prohibition,
| who shall be appointed by the Gov
ernor on or before October ] for a
term OF four years. with salary
of $4,000 a year and travelling eX-
penses. The commissioner has
power to appoint deputies and ag-
ents.
Under the 1919 law 1t was a fell
ony to own, operate. maintain or
have an interest in a moonshine
still. Owing to judicial interpreta-
ton OF this law it was only mis-
demeanor for a person to have a
mo0nshine still in his or her pos
session.
This has been cured under the
new law and it is provided that it
Is a felony for anyone to own, OPP
crate, maintain, have in possession
or have an interest in or aid CT
abet in any way in the operation
OF still is guilty of felony, and
upon the first conviction the pen
atty is fine from $500 to $1,000
and from two to five years in the
penitentiary. The law also prescri-
hes a form of Indictment TO be
used before the grand jury.
But it goes further, and this IS a
feature that did not appear in the
old law, that 1t is crime for any
one to have in his possession or in
his premises, any mixture or TO
menting substances, corn meal,
other crushed Or ground cereals,
fruits or roots combined with wa
ter or other liquids or substances,
known as mash" or like substan-
ces. The penalty for an infraction
OF this provision is from two to
six months in the county Jail or
fine of from 800 to $500.
There are other provisions and
penalties, and the person who man
ufactures moonshine on the sly is
taking a very grave chance.
