Kramer's Interpretation of
Courts Recent Ruling in
South Carolina
SOME THOUGH
TO GET BOOZE

WASHINGTON. March 2s.-Llttle
liquor will have TO be returned to
owners as a result OF a recent ruling
Of the United States Circuit Court In
South Carolina that the Volstead
Act supersedes the internal revenue
laws insofar as they apply 10 intoxi-
eating liquors. Prohibition Commits
sioner Kramer said last night. The
assertion was made In commenting
upon the action in New York yes
terday OF Federal officials in hating
a raid on the ground that the ruling
made seizures under the revenue
laws Illegal.
The great bulk OF liquor seized by
the Government. Commissioner Kra-
mer declared. was taken under the
Nolstead act while being transported
Illegally and this liquor would. OF
course. Be unaffected by the new in
depreciation OF the law. He added
that he did not know how much
liquor may have been seized In vari-
Gus parts OF the country under the
revenue laws. but expressed the belief
that II was not a considerable guam
tity in comparison with the total
amount seized since prohibition be-
came a law.
Return OF some liquor would
probably be necessary where II had
been seized under the revenue laws.
Mr.. Kramer asserted, adding that
while some OF il may have been de-
stroyed. large quantities are still
awaiting determination OF status by
/ the courts.
Mr.. Kramer said he did not be-
lieve the South Carolina ruling
would greatly interfere with prohi-
billion enforcement. At present. n,
said, very little real liquor is be.
ing taken by Federal agents in raids
Most OF the Illegal liquors seized. h'
explained. were imitation concoc.
tions transported by bootleggers foi

giving, which he had secreted in an
old coffee pot, hidden in stovepipe
in an old root cellar. Mr.. Albert
thought that his money might be
safer In the root cellar than I'm any
OF the banks, SO he took out what
he already had in the bank and kept
adding TO his savings during the
summer.
No one but Mr. Albert and his
wife knew where the money was
hidden. Mrs. Albert confided the
secret with her sister, who in turn
told another sister. Mrs. Harrison,
wife OF railroad man, who lives
on the North side. 1t is said that
Mrs Harrison dropped a remark
which Geo. Fout. better known as

ADVANCED ON GRAIN

overloaded market

ranged for that will take care OF
over fifteen million bushels of
wheat durum and rye. where the
actual grain will be placed in stOr-
age and will be sold as the market
demands and not thrown on the
market which has. been badly over
crowded this fall.
Bankers and business men of the
Northwest are fully alive to the
marketing crisis that faces the
farmers who must have money to
pay their obligations. ana are help
ing the farmers meet this crisis by
cooperating with them in pooling
their grain. The sentiment is ex-
pressed in letter from @. +. Pet
ersOn, cashier of the Farmers Bank
OF Ray. who wrote: eeThe farmers
here are holding their grain and
would welcome an opportunity to
& sJOln the pOol.
AS the farmers learn that they do
not have to sell their grain on this
disastrously low market, the de-
mandf for share in the roam Is
steadily increasing.
This is the first time in the his
tory of our nation that farmer
owned grain can be held In actual
storage and sold in large lots to
millers and foreign countries.
Mr.. III. M. Critchfield, who is re-
presenting the Equity Cooperative
Exchange in this part OF the coun-
try, says the method OF obtaining
the advance is very simpIe, and a
farmer with a few hundred bushels

He said Colonel Williams was forced
into the Illicit liquor business by
economic pressure. Lawrence Gani-

whose error Colonel Williams as

$25. i, .
When Colonel Williams on whose

his own volition and cited economic
conditions which moved him to
manufacturing liquor in hope that
he could IiQuidate a $14 900 mors-

This Is q very serious offense,

Amidon r that the prisoner was
a thorough gentleman from Ken
lucky and had made fight like a
hero to save his personal property
and the homestead.
He made a fight like hero for
sf-7e years against crop failures
which came In succession" !" said the
Judge. He did not reap enough
from his fields to pay for his seed
which cost him So a bushel.
He has q large herd or white
faced cattle and many horses. His
personal property and homestead
are r,lortgaged up to the gunwhale.
Mortgagee ALSO Puzzled
Prices declined so fast that even
the mortgage was puzzled. and
could not keep up with the decline
and III the mortgage foreclosed, he
could not realize anything.
Trucks and tractors have ruined
the horse market so his horses are
now OF little value. TO sell them
he probably would get enough to
pay the freight charges. What he
could get for. his cattle is just rep
etition of the decline I'm prices on
the sheep and the wool markets.
This was the prisoners predicament
after a residence Of 21 years in the
state without a stain against his
good name
Judge Amidon explained that Col

a plant on his homestead in the
western part of the state which was
equipped with facilities to make a

this plant was constructea a dwell

it he hoped to be able to save his

Wife Deserts Him
| Federal agents said that Williams
wife, opposed to what appeared TO
her husband as his only salvation to
free himself from debt brought on
by the five successive crop failures,
deserted him. Bankers in the west

TEMPT NJ 70 EsCAPt

Minot N. d., Dec. 15.-Jack
Longre. convicted OF stealing the
Bill Calos ar at Kenmare, after
Calos was held up at the point OF q
Gun and compelled to drive to Nor
ma with the robbers, was sentenced
to serve 20 years in the Denitentiary.
He was taken to that institution on
Tuesday by Transportation Officers
Skeels and Seasan Smith.
Longre made a desperate attempt
to break out Of the Ward county
jail Monday night and probably
would have done go, but for the
watchful care that Jailor Mccartney
is giving his prisoners. Mccartney
! sinspects the cells closely by tapping
the bars with an iron. II the bars
are intact they give forth a good
healthy ring. II not. the sound Is
deadened. One OF the bars. to
LOngre's cell didn't sound just
light when tapped. A close exam
ination showed that it had been
sawed off completely at each end,
but had been carefully replaced and
the filings put back in. Sheriff SEQ
field was called and Longre pro-,
duced half OF little steel saw
which he had used. The other half
was found In the corner of his cell.
The sheriff Informed him that the
jig was up. LOngre said: well,
You can't blame me for trying to
get out, can you?'' Where Longre
got the saw is not known. His wife.
visited him Saturday afternoon and
1t is possible that she gave 1t to him
then. LOngre admitted that he
had already been outside the cell.
1t is believed that his plan Was to
get out of the cell. take the piece of
bar, a foot long for weapon, catch
the night jailor, w. III. Darby, Off
his guard, tap him over the head,
take the keys and leave.

FIRE DAMAGES HOUSE
ON CENTRAL STREET

Fire this morning at II o'clock
damaged a portion of the roof of the
frame house owned by Mrs. Cal
Shaw, situated on Summit street be-
tween Brougher and Oddie avenues,
and directly back of her stone resi-
dence on Central street. The blaze
was started as a result OF sparks
from the chimney falling on the dry
shingles. Mr., Blanchard, employed
by the Tonopah Extension, and wife,
had Just moved in this morning and
started a fire in the stove, with the
result that the draft proved too
strong. The fire department respond
ed promptly and was compelled to
play one stream Of water on the roof,
while chemicals caused considerable
damage to the walls in the interior
of the house. The damage is fully
covered by insurance.
In appreciation of the efficient
services rendered, the fire boys were
presented with a box of fine cigars
by Mrs. Shaw.
