SALE
RULING ASKED
Mellon Requests Opinion of
Attorney General on Sale
of lntoxicants at Sea

WASHINGTON, June 26. - Secre-
tary Mellon has formally requested
Attorney General Daughsrty for a
ruling as to the legality of the sale of
liquor on shipping board vessels out
side the three mile limit, it was stated
today at the treasury. 1t has been Of
ficially held by counsel for the prohi-
bition enforcement unit that the treas
ury regulations, as now drawn, do not
prohibit such sales, but the ruling
when made, will definitely determine
the question.
Request for the ruling, it was said,
was made at the urging of prohibition
Commissioner Haynes and an early
reply from Daugherty was sought to
settle finally the controversy precipi-
tated by Adolphus Busch III, in con-
nection with the shipping boards prac
tice OF operating bare at sea.
Accompanying the request, high Of
ficials said, was a brief prepared by
Sol Mapes of the internal revenue de-
partment, reviewing previous opinions
OF the department OF justice, which
have held that the prohibition laws
follow the flag on board American
vessels at sea and also the recent
treasury regulations which excepted
shipping board vessels along with for
eign craft so far as sea stores are con-
,cerned, from the operation of the re-
cent decision bringing in transit liquor
shipment. Only decision of court
could overturn any position the attor-
ney general might take.
