.LASKER SAYS FOREIGN LINES
WILL MAKE DRY RULE FUTILE

! OF the Anchor Line Steamship Company
(which had asked for an injunction tc
prevent the Internal Revenue Collector
at New York from interfering with the
transfer OF shipment of liquor from one
foreign country to another and from
one ship to another.
Attorney General Daugherty is looked
upon with great favor by the Anti
Saloon League leaders, who feel that he
sympathizes with them in their efforts
to enforce the Eighteenth Amendment
and the Volstead act.
The Attorney General in his last an
nual report calls attention to several sig
nificant Supreme Court decisions on pro-
hibition legislation.
Supreme Court Decisions.
Mr. Daugherty cites three decisions
by the Supreme Court as of general
public interest. In the case against BoZe
Yuginovich on an appeal from the Dis
trict Court for the Eastern District of
Washington he said
I'm passing on an amendment charging
the production OF liquor for beverage
purposes in violation of certain sections
of the revised statutes the court held
that Congress did not intend to preserve
the penalties heretofore existing in addi-
tion to the specific provisions made for
punishment in the Volstead act"
In the case of Dillon vs. Gloss,
brought up from California, the Supreme
Court held that proposal and rati-
fication Of amendments to the Consti-
tuition are not unrelated acts but sue
ceeding steps in a single endeavor. so
that a fair implication that ratification
is to be had within a reasonable time
and that fixing a definite period within
which ratification must be had. was
within the provision of Congress" This
has been a moot question.
In the case Of Street VS.. Lincoln Safe
Deposit Company, brought up from New
York, the Supreme Court held that
liquors lawfully acquired before the ef-
fective date OF the national prohibition
act might be kept in room in private
storage warehouses when the owner had
exclusive possession and control Of
them and removed therefrom, by him
and transported under permit from the
Bureau OF Internal Revenue TO his
dwelling for consumption by himself
and family or bona friends" This
opinion was considered a slight blow
at the prohibitionists who had been try
ing to prevent the transfer of such
liquors.

ton in my brief that under the statute

not transport Intoxicating liquors within

"The present status OF liquor beyond
the three mile limit is uncertain. For
certain purposes existing law extends
the limit 10 twelve miles and the courts
have sustained it. This We hold applies
to liquor. But Great Britain has pro-
tested ind the matter is in allegiance

"Botn the Constitution and interna-
tional slaw are concerned in this opinion
Of your Attorney-General." stated Sir
Arthur II assume that he knows what
he is doing. though it appears to me that
he would have to derive special authority
from Congress for such action as he has
taken. AS for the problems in interna-
tional laf invilved in the case I cannot
give an authoritative opinion. I'm not
lawyer; I'm a business man." When
asked IL the enforcement Of this new
dry regula ton would drive transatlantic
travel away from New York to Halifax
or other Canadian ports Sir Arthur re-
piled with an emphatic negative.
There will be no serious diversion OF

profit in the north Atlantic trade unless
you get your share of the immigrant
traffic Your immigrant is almost inva-
riably a wine drinker and he is not
going TO travel on any ship that denies
him the facilities of his daily life.
From the International standpoint It
ought to be remembered that the States
which adopted prohibition found it
worse than ineffective and it became
necessary to adopt a Federal amendment
applying to the forty-eight States of the
Union equally. i am convinced that any
ruling applied to liquor on the sea can
not be made effective until there has
been ar international agreement binding
on ait nations.
Would Not Blame Foreign Nation.
I'VE have a right of course to say
that our own ships must not carry liquor.
but / don't blame foreign nations il they
protest vigorously and threaten us with
retaliation.
"As far as We ourselves arc concerned
all IL is going to do is to give us the
shadow of prohibition as against the
substance of an American merchant
marine.
~ expect the next move of the foreign
shipping interests will be to get an in
junction against whatever reg ulations
are issued in accordance with the rulings
of the Attorney General How long 1t
will be in the courts no one can tell, but
meantime ! know that foreign ships will
go on as they have been going on.
"Our next move should be to pass the
ship subsidy legislation. which will give
compensation for the loss this imposes
on our ships and at the same time will
embody a provision which would give
American ships so per cent. OF the inn
migrant trade. although this necessi-
tates renouncing sections Of existing
treaties.
"In saying all of this I am not ques-
tioning the legality of the ruling Of the
Attorney I am not speaking

insisting on the extent Of the blow it
gives the American merchant marine,
