MULLAN-GAGE LAW
REPEAL IS URGED
BY GRAND JUR|ES
Kings County Body Declares
No Good Has Come of
Enforcement.
OPPOSE AMENDMENT.
PreSentment' to Judge Man
cuse Flags State Enforce
ment as Faulty.

Two Grand Juries, one N Brooklyn
and one in Manhattan. to-day filed
presentments with the judges beforo
whom they were sitting, in which they
urged the repeal of the state Prohi-
bition Law. characterizing it as nui-
sance and an unnecessary expense 10
tho public. Both had investigated
complaints of violations of the law
and reported that in almost every
instance those charged with the viola
tons were employees and not the men
whose duties they were performing.
A declaration that in their opinion
New York State is not responsible for
tho enforcement of the Eighteenth
Amendnlents is. Contained in a pre-
sentiment handed UP by the December
Grand Jury to County Judge J. G..
MacMahon in Brooklyn to-day. It Is
signed by F. w. Abbott, foreman, and
John II. Thodc, Secretary.
THE large number of unjust COM
plants brought to this Grand Jury,
charging violations of the so-called
Mullan- Gage law, have impclled US,
as a Grand Jury of Kings County
and thus as representative of the av-
craEc citizenship. TO make a brief and
frank comment upon this subject.
I'VE know of no obligation resting
on the State to enforce any Federal
law. We know of no obligation rest
ing on the State to enforce the Eigh-
tecnth Amendment of the United
States Constitution. And yet the State
was asked to enforce the Prohibition
amendment by the passage of sumptu-
airy laws, and in response passed the
Mullan-G Gage law.
There seems TO be decided
opinion as TO the legality in the pro-
vision of the Mullan-Gag law with
reference to search and seizure with
out warrant Whatever may be our
individual ideas upon the subject Of
temperance and Prohibition, we be-
lievc there can be no doubt but that
this law tends TO debauch and corrupt
the police force.

private life of moral, abiding

indulge in personal habits in which
they find no harm.

II was sold at auction last june 10 five
different interests for total Of 1856,

1t was said. as llo had hoped to get a
much larger price for the property.
Lenp appeared at his office at Q
a. M. to-day as usual, it was stated,
and shortly thereafter Henry, Vohl-
kamp, Vice President. arrived and
greeted Lemp: "Woll, how do you feel
today"
"oh, I'm feeling worse" vohlkamp
said Lemp replied.
Following the sale OF the majority
of the brewery buildings last June,
Lcmp stated he expected 10 get ~ or
30 cents on the dollar instead of only
eight, adding they told us when pro
hibition camo that he could mako
something out of our plants. But look
what came. We obeycd the law, too. -
The buildings value at $1,000, 900,

CRAIG DEMANDS
CITY COLLEGE HEAD
PAY $4,000 RENT
Comptroller Will Deduct 1t
From St2,5 500 Salary of
President MezeS.

Comptroller Craig has called upon
President Sidney L. Mezes OF the Col
lose OF the City OF New York to re.
in,burse the city $1,000 for the rent
OF the house the President occupies
at No. ESQ Convent Avenue. He has
also instructed the Chief Auditor to
see that us long as he occupies the
house, which belongs 10 the city. rent
OF $1,000 IS figured as part OF his sal
ary. Dr. Mezes. since June. 1921, has
been drawing sie.5oO year.
The City Charter. the Comptroller
points out fxes the compensation Of
tho President OF City College at a
minimum OF $4,000 and a maximum
OF $l2,50O. Since juno 1 OF last year
the compensation OF the President
has been the maximum. In addition,
he has been living rent free in the
house which was purchased by the
city in 1907 at cost of $50, 900 For
tho use OF tho College of the City OF
New York as an addition thetoto."
The Comptroller describes the
house, which is n four story and base.
ment dwelling, as n mansion, and says
he Is advised that $4,000 a year IS
fair rental. Tho Comptroller also has
held up bills for repairs, one for the
roof of $40 and another for interior
repairs of S9i.
The contention OF the Comptroller
Is that. having received salary of
$l2 500 a year since. the President OF
CITY College cannot occupy tho house
rent free, as that would DO in excess
Of the amount allowed by the Charter
In n description of the residence. the
Comptroller calls attention to two wine
cellars. Tho contents. II any. are not
enumerated. However, the coal bins
contain twenty tons OF coal, he points
out. Tho house contains large
billiard room trimmed with quartcred
oak, n large parlor trimmed with
white mahogany, "A foyer and dining
room trimmed with quartered oak, a
smoking room fitted with red mahog.
any panelling. a floor above the par
lor is finished in white and bIrdseye
maple. Tho third floor contains five
rooms. three Of which are for SER
wants.
Comptroller Craigs' action Is said to
be a Oounter-attack in a legal battle
begun by the college TO compel him
and other members OF the Board of
Estimate TO appropriate money for use
Of the college, which was denied when
the 1928 budget was prepared. Appica
ton for "a mandamus has been made
by the college authorities.
