INJUNCTION is EXPECTED

Washington. Oct. G.-All vessels
American or foreign owned, are pro-
hiblted from having liquor on board
in American territorial waters under
an Interpretation OF the prohibition
amendment and the enforcement act
handed down yesterday by the de.
partment of justice. Moreover, the
transportation or sale OF intoxlcants
on American craft, wherever operat.
ed, was held to be forbidden.
American territorial watdrs were
construed to include those not only
within the three mile limit Of con-
tinental United States, but also
those within the same limit OF the
Porto Rico, the Virgin islands and
Alaska. The law would not apply
In the Panama canal zone as that
zone is specifically exempted by the
statute itself.
So far as American ships are con.
cerned the sale or transportation of
liquor will cease at once, or as soon
as those vessesl reach their home
port. In the case OF foreign ships
the decision will become operative as
soon as the necessary regulations can
be prepared and promulgated by the
treasury department.
Court action looking to final de-
termination of the application Of
American dry laws to foreign ships
entering American ports was fore
seen by both Attorney-Generar Doug
herty and chairman Lasher OF the
shipping board
Chairman Lasher was OF the opin-
ion that the first move OF foreign
lines would be to. seek an injunction
restraining the government from en-
forcing the law. He said II was rea.
sonable to suppose that the courts
would grant such an Injunction with
ia result that foreign ships would con-
tinue to arrive with liquor on board
until there was n final decision by
the highest court.
Publication OF the opinion Of the
department OF justice followed a
White House conference to which
President Harding summoned Daugh-
erty. Secretaries Hughes and Mellon

phases OF the situation were discus
