County Official

Rutland, March 10.--State's Attor'
ney Charles E. Novak does not recog'
nize a 'detalner" as being any part
OF the prohibition machinery OF Yer
mont and, in an interview with
newspaper representative, declared
that he will have to have more explic-
L information regarding the operat'
ion Of such a legal process to prevent
him from seizlng liquor than the
statement Of Prohibition Director Co
ilins NJ. Graves. States Attorney No
yak comment regarding "detainers
was prompted by the statement oil
Mr.. Graves that a 27O.case lot Of

I 800. $50 on med cal basis, Is in pos
session Of the federal government un-
der a "detainer" and is stored in the
cold storage establishment on Cleye-
1 land Avenue here.
| An inquest was held in this city
yesterday regarding what shall be
done W tn the liquor owned by the
Dominion Drug company and seized
at the cold storage plant Wednesday
by States Attorney Novak. While no
information is given out regarding the
inquest proceedings, 1t is known that
Attorney General Frank c. Archibald
who was here in connection with the
lliquor seizure, approves the action
taken by the States attorney and
does not recognize "detainers" as
playing a part in preventing the
state government from taking posses
sion of OUTLAW" liquor
There has been considerable. com
ment," said the States attorney, re-
gardlng my action in selling the
stock Of liquors of the Dominion
Drug company, but | am sure that
the federal officers are convinced that
1.-The State has acted within Its author
Iity. AS | stated Wednesday, | took
possession OF the liquor when my in
vestigation disclosed that the goods
in the cold storage were not there
under permission of the federal gov
ernment.
Isn't it a fact Mr.. Novak was
asked, that Watchman William Man
gan has given you and Attorney-Ger
eral Archibald to understand thai
about all the orders he received
from Prohibition Director Graves, OF
any federal representative, was tC
permit no one to have access TO the

The States attorney declined to dis
cuss any phase Of the inquest or tC
diclose any testimony given by wit
nesses.
Just what is this clash between
the Office of the State S attorney anC
the office of Director Grayes?' wa!
asked the States attorney.
This talk of clash is ridiculous
replied Mr.. Novak. "Mr Graves Is
lawyer and knows that the State has
acted within its authority and tha
the States attorney would not have
made any move TO take possession o
LIQUOR over which the federal gov
ernment had jurisdiction, by process
of seizure"
