TO Prevent Passage,
Washington, April 19-The federal
government in enforcing ,prohib;tion
would close its ports to the extent of
prohibiting the transit i'm hood through
the country or even tho transfer from
one ship to another in any of it's har-
bors of liquor intended for consump-
ton as a beverage IN foreign coun-
try. Judge Goff, assistant 10 tho at
torncy general, declared today i'm ar
2uing cases in the supreme court,
The cases involve a shipment from
Canada to Mexico by Hiram Walker
& Sons of Intoxicating liquor to be
transshippcd in bond from Detroit TO
New Orleans. and shipment OF H.
quor BY the Anchor line from Scot
land 10 Bermuda by transfer from one
British vessel to another in New York
harbor.
Judge GoT explained that in The
former case the United States district
court at Detroit had Il, I'd that both

revised statutes. Notwithstanding the
18TH amcnrmcnt and the Nolstcad act,
had authorized such shpmcntsf but
the United States district court at
New York in the matter Of the trans
fer had held that both the revised
statutes and the treaty with Great
Britain which authorized the transit
CT Intoxicating liquor had been repeal
ed and abroGatcd, respectively.
Ii is the purpose OF the government
in pressing the cases to prevent both
the trans-shipmcnts and transfer Of
liquor, Judge Goff stated because of
the large amount which while in Tran
sit is either pilfcrcd or diverted.
The United States eXertcd its SOW
ereign power and Withdrew its protcc-
ton and its recognition OF liquor as
a commodity of commerce" Judge Goff
said adding that the government in
sisted the language Of the 18th amend
ment included the transit Of liquor in
pond in the United States.
All TRANSPORTATION within the juris-
diction of the United Stages of liquor
for beverage purposes is prohibited,
he continued, emphasizing that the cX-
portatlon OF liquor had been prohibit

lection of the government to liquor IN

SAFETY FOR NEGRO
SOUGHT AS SLAYER
North Carolina Governor De.
clares There Will Be No
Lynching.

RALEIGH, N. c.. Feb. 1s.-Reiterating
earlier statements that II Matthew Bull
lock. negro arrested yesterday at
Hamilton. Ont, on an extradition war
rant from the American State Depart
ment, was returned here to answer to a
charge of attempted murder. every pre-
caution would be taken to guarantee him
fair trial. Gov. Morrison to-day said
People In some sections of the coun-
try do not seem to understand that so
called lynchings in the South are moth
ing. more than the killing of criminal
by the friends and frequently outraged
relatives of the victim Of the prisoners
crime"
The Governor expressed confidence
that the State Department at Washing
ton would act with high respect for the
State of North Carolina" in its efforts
to bring about extradition. County
Judge Snider at Hamilton has refused
to grant extradition until witnesses have
been produced by the State Of North
Carolina to testify to the charges against
Bullock, which involve his alleged at
tempted murder of Rabey Trayler in
connection with the Norlina race riots.
"Lynchings are never winked at by
the authorities" Gov. Morrison said In
statement. "and are always pre-
vented where the authorities have any
knowledge of the approach OF danger
and an opportunity to prevent 1t. What
has come to be called lynchtng in the
south is nothing but ordinary killings
in other sections OF the country. Be-
cause of the fact that some of our
county sites are small villages with very
small police forces and the jail kept
by one man, those who are bitterly
aroused and seek vengeance are able
to go to the jail and by. some ruse or
trick capture the jailor and take the
sought criminal.
This very rarely occurs and we have
adopted a rule in this State now OF
bringing to the State Prison In Raleigh
for safekeeping criminals who have per-
petrated crimes which in their nature
outrage the community and might cause
violence. So-called lynchings of this
character are very rare. Most or these
occurrences called lynchings happen De-
fore the officers apprehend the prisoner
at all. and are nothing but murders
committed by those who are outraged by
the crime committed by the persons
Iynched. The officers know nothing OF
it until after it is over and have no
way to prevent 1t.
.aThe sentiment against so-caileo
Iynchings in this State Is pronounced
ond universal We now have IN the
state penitentiary white man who led
a mob in an assault upon three negro
prisoners in the hands of the authorities

clemency to this prisoner. One OF the
three men sought by the mob. VINO was
