MUST HAVE SEARCH WARRANTS,

Judge Thompson OF the United
States District Court in Philadelphia.
this week ordered the return TO the
owners of several hundred thousand
dollars worth of liquors which had
been seized by Federal agents after n
raid on their premises. and dismissed
the charge. against the defendants.
The reason for this action by the
court was that the search and seizure
were Illegal. rs the agents had not
first provided themselves with search
warrants.
The Fourth Amendment to the Con
stitut!on guarantees protection "a
property against search without war

held that this part of the Constitu.
ton must be strictly observed 10y

ment.
This Is an important fact to beai
in mind. All laws should be enforced
but not in manner that violate,

A SIGNIFICANT VERDICT.

The conviction. at Los Angeles
Calf. this week. Of eight railroad
union leaders on charges of "obstruct-
ing interstate commerce" Is most sig-
nificant. II means that In future
those who arrange for strike move
ments on railroads may not SO act ms
To bring Inconvenience and suffering
upon the travelling public without
rendering themselves liable to the
laws penalties.
In the strike which these men or
dered. about twenty through trains
were abandoned in the California
Arizona desert. miles away from com
munities which could afford relief
and the passengers stranded. Many
~ them suffered intensely from the
heat and from hunger and thirst
some were made seriously H.
The verdict in this case means tina
hereafter tho railroad strikers mus
refrain from abandoning trains II
transit. leaving The passengers 90 car,
for themselves. Il means that th'
travelling public has rights. as well a.
strikers. and that these rights ma!
not be overriddcn with safety.

ENORMOUS DISCREPANCY.

According e. Director of the Bud
sct Dawes. n grave mistake was made
In the report OF the operations of the
Postoftice Department for the first
quarter Of this year. which was ap-
proved by former Postmaster-Gcn
VIII ". Hays before he left the pub
lie service TO boss the movies" Of the
country. That report showed a sur
plus. but there was some talk at the
time about a submerged sheet" that
had been lost from the official report.
and that seems TO have made a ire
mendaus difference.
Director Dawes says that instead Of
showing a surplus for the first quar-
ter ~ this year. the operations OF the
Po,,ofiice Department FOR that period
show a defici, OF more than $4,000. 900.
Here is an astounding discrepancy.
and u VIII be up to Hays To explain
it-if he can. As a rule. General
Dawes knows what he is talking about
when he makes one e his famous
explosions" and gives free rein 10
his caustic tongue.
In view ~ this exposure i; Is no;
possible the PostofhCe Department
is now being conducted NJ a profit. Yet
under the eight years Of Postmaster.
General Burleson. during the Wilson
administrations. many notable reforms
Including the parcels post, were in
augura;ed and the department wa
placed on a paying basis. Much wa:
claimed FOR Hays when he took charge
but now /; seems the high Credi
awarded him was undeserved.
