Is whether property and intoxicating
liquor when seized illegally by an
officer may be used in evidence by
the State in prosecution Of cases.

sionsand was brought up in Court OF
General Sessions today by Ayres J.

return OF the property seized IN the
suit OF Theodore Banuswki. charged
with illegal possession OF spurious
liquors.

ground that the search IS unlawful

under the constitutional rights. The
Court Of General Sessions will de-
termine whether or not the search
was lawfully made.

or not the property unlawfully SELF
ed can be used by the State in prose-
cution. This question hinges about
the State law, which prohibits the
Of more than one quart OF

Gertrude Emerson, Noted
Editor, Visits Buried
Cities in Asia /

"Miss Marco Poio"-the title
earned in the Orient by adventurous
Gertrude Emerson, associate editor
of "Asia," for her indefatigable ex-
piorations-is safe on American soil
again, to the infinite relief of her
friends.
For this intrepid small person,
who IS just FIVE feet tall and only
weighs ninety-six pounds, went all
around the world during the last
two years, absolutely alone. on
still hunt for picture and story
material for her magazine.
People Courteous Everywhere
Wherever she went, people were
solicitous for her safety, but she
waved warnings aside and blithely
kept on with her exploring. She
EEunted tigers in Indo-China, and
crocodiles in India; she Travelled
by elephant, camel, sampan. horse
back, motor, aeroplane and ocean
liner over so many thousands of
miles that she lost count OF them
herself.
She visited Anglor, buried city
of Canbodia, rediscovered by the
French in 1910, where only one
hundred persons had ever been
since. She explored the famous
Dat caves of the Philippines and
took dangerous motor trips across
Indian country that was infested
with fanatical insurgents. She was
the only passenger on cargo boat,
going from Port Said to Constanti-
aople, which two months before had
been held Up by the Turks with re-
sultant large death rate.
"But ! wasn't scared" she offers
casually. "An American woman
can go anywhere and she's doing it,
too, if not in person at least by
way of pencil or pen.
American Music Heard Round
The World
"For instance, there was the zippy
little waltz Three O'clock in the
Morning to which ] danced Amer
lean dances in Yokohoma, Paris,
Bangkok and London. Dorothy
ferris, an American girl, wrote the
words to that, and now IFS an inter
national tune, played not only by
foreign dance orchestras, but by the
natives themselves on their own pc
crliiar instruments.
"Thc ships orchestra played it on
