The first question asked is. why
whisky has been allowed to be sold
along the Potomac River for
months" and states that even after
a murder was committed there
this sale is being permitted?"
Why horse race betting is, and
has been. permitted to go on so long

that a certain automobile collects
the money and transfers it to Wash

stated there are from so to $50 cars
