street, believed to be the oldest wom'
an moonshiner in the United States,
was brought before United States Com
missioner J. l.. Rec yesterday on a
charge of Illegal manufacture of intox

amounted to probation was made in
the case, the commissioner accepting
a plea of not guilty and continuing the
case for two months.
Mrs. Smoensky was deserted by her
husband over two months ago, She
kept boarders for while and then
they left her. She had seen other
people making a living from manu-
featuring moonshine and hit upon this
scheme of supporting herself She is
a recent immigrant, speaks no Eng

possible that she did not understand
how serious an offense she was com
hitting in a country where intoxi-
cants are taboo
In disposing of the case the com
missioner made it clear that the wom-
an must discontinue her activities as a
vlolator Of the Volstead act If It APP
pears two months hence that she has
profted by the warning the case will
be again continued.
