"Bootlegging" And Says Lax

Breeds Contempt For All Laws
GENERAL CONDITIONS
IN COUNTY EXCELLENT

Referring to conditions I'm Anne
Arundel county as being better, gem
orally speaking. than at any time
within the past thirty-five years. as
evidenced by the exceptionally small
number of prisoners in the Jail, as
we'll as by other indications, but
pointing to bootlegging and Illicit
liquor traffic as a conspicuous excep-
ton to these general conditions.
Judge Robert Moss delivered the
charge to the grand jury at the open
ing of the October term of the Circuit
Court OF the county this morning.
Ample Enforcement Machinery
Judge Moss said that no apparent
effort was being made from any
source to enforce the liquor laws, and
referred to conditions particularly in
the Third district of this county.
where large stills have been said to
exist and where ii has been known
that some of those engaged in the
wares about the country side as late
as the midnight hour The local
liquor laws, the Judge stated, as he
has stated to previous grand jurys,
are still in force and there is ample
machinery provided by the courts for
Furnishing those who sell intoxicating
liquors without a license or in any
way traffic in it. He strongly urged
the grand jury to vigorously investi-
gate this angle of the criminal law
and spare no pains in presenting the
guilty ones for trial.
Race Tracks Are Flayed
Another feature of the charge to the
grand jury was the reference to the
race tracks in Maryland and their
operation as a partnership" with the
State, which the Judge characterized
as an abomination. The particular
reference was to the reported issuing
OF passes to the race tracks by the
proprietors of the Laurel track, which
is within the territorial limits of this
county. The Judge urged the grand
Jury to make a thorough inquiry into
this and to find out on just what
grounds these passes are being is
sued and to whom. If racing is to be
permitted, he said. and the partner
ship with the State continued, then
