Action Of CIarksburg City Off:
ciaIs 0yerruIed by
Judge Southern

CLARKsBURG, April 13-1n
an opinion handed down today in
the Harrison County Criminal
Court, Judge John c. Southern
holds the Clarksburg city prohibi-
tion ordinance to be invalid in
part, on the theory that the plan
OF the Legislature has been to
legislate upon the subject as a
statewide proposition with the
object Of enforcing the state law
and not local laws. He holds that
city officials are given the express
authority to enforce the state
laws. City officers may continue
to arrest persons for prohibition
violations, but they must be turn
ed over to state courts for trial.
The decision was made In case
against Frank Clcesto, who tined
by the city for having had moon
shine whisky In his possession,
and 1t pertained only to the part
OF the ordinance concerning the
possession OF Intoxicants. The
case had been appealed from the
municipal court. Another case in
which a man was fined for selling
whisky was appealed and will be
tried at later date when part
Of the ordinance concerning the
sale OF intoxicants will be ruled
upon.
The decision Of Judge Southern
today indicates that the city pro-
,hibition ordinance was held inval.
Id in other respects.

ISOLATED Press while rumors OF

cles today, most of them being
promptly disavowed, the one fact
that appeared to stand out in the
somewhat clouded atmosphere was
that neither the disarmament nor
reparations questions would be
brought up for specific acton
against the opposition of France.
The disarmament discussion had
centered in the rumor that Prime
Minister Lloyd George would pro.
pose a military holiday for a fixed
time. This was fatty disavowei
this afternoon by members Of the
British delegation.
Other reports were that the Rus
sions and the Germans were pre-
pairing to leave the conference un.
less reparations and disarmament
were made part Of tile agenda.
These were also officially denied.
1t was pointed out that It was
still too early for any OF the powers
to quit the conference owing to the
fact that the conference was not
