The way the live chickens are
handled is next to cruelty to ami
mails. First they are crowded in
the crates and almost ~suffocate and
when sold they tie their legs and the
buyers carry them by the legs with
their heads hanging down. Some
times they are carried a long way
and it surely must hurt them more
or less to be handled in that strange
way. l know of cities where people
" no carry chickens as they are car
ried here are fined s25 and l think
it should be a rule that the people
who buy live chickens should bring
a basket to carry them in. A mar

Committee to Report Measure
to House, Probably To-day.

WASH INGToN, June 1.-The Volstead
medical beer. was agreed upon to-day by
the House judiciary Committee, which
will report it TO the House. probably to-
morrow, with request Tor It's immedi-
ate passage.

fore the Bureau of Internal Revenue

Special Despatch TO THE New YORK HERALD.
New York Herald Bureau.
Washington, ID. c., June I.


New York Herald Bureau,
Washington, ID. c., June i. }
The United States Supreme Court
to-day dealt a blow to prohibition en-
forcement and opened the way for the
release of scores of persons convicted
of violating the dry laws since the
Nolstead law became effective.
By a unanimous decision the court
held that the bid internal revenue laws
that regulated the manufacture and
sale of liquor before the Volstead law
became effective were repealed by its
passage even though they were not in
consistent with it.
The decision was a defeat for the
Federal Government and the Anti
Saloon League, which had fought the
case in the court. Many prosecutions
have been brought under the old laws
in the last year.
The court declared that the Federal
Government under the Volstead law can
tax illegally made liquor to any degree.
but asserted that old penalties of the
Internal revenue laws for defrauding
the Government of liquor taxes could not
be made to apply at present. Because or
the upholding of the right to tax Illegally
made liquor about S25, 600, 900 of such
taxes imposed since prohibition became
effective will be kept in the Treasury.
While the court was reading its de-
cision, the first adverse TO the conten-
lions of the prohibitlonists since the
Eighteenth Amendment was adopted. the
House Judiciary Committee approved the
bill of Representative Volstead prohibit
ing the prescription of beer as medicine
and otherwise Tightening up prohibition
enforcement. The effect of the courts
decision may be discussed at meeting
of the committee tomorrow.
The case decided was appealed by
Boze and Cousin Boze Yuginovich OF
Oregon. indicted under the old internal
revenue laws for conducting a still.
Mrs. Abbot Adams, special assistant
Attorney-General in charge of the dry
cases. said after hearing the decision:
1--WE brought many cases for violation
OF dry laws under the old internal rev.
enue laws because it seemed easier to
obtain convictions than under the Vol
stead law In some circumstances The
men thus convicted whose appeals are
pending now probably can obtain release
through writs of habeas corpus based on
to-day's decision"
Wayne B. Wheeler of the Anti-Saloon
League said:
Most criminal prosecutions in liquor
cases will have to be brought hereafter
under the Volstead act. The penalties
and procedure In the Volstead act are
not so strong as in the revenue laws, but
they will be sufficient IL used effectively"
