New York. Oct. 2s.--Federal Judge
Learned Hand today handed down n
decision IN which he upheld the
Daugheriy order against liquor ear.
rying by ships entering American
ports.
The court dismissed the petition
OF Steamship companies which
sought an injunction against the rul-

Judge Hand, however, did Issue an
injunction against federal interfer-
once with carrying liquor supplies
for rationing among the crews.
He stated that the owners of ships
must give n SIS 600 bond to guaran-
tee that liquor rations permitted on
East bound voyages are not used for
any other purpose.
The steamship companies announc-
ed they would appeal the case to the
United States Supreme Court.
In his decision Judge Hand said:
"The suspension of law of the
United States, especially a law in
execution of constitutional amend
ment, is of itself an irreparable in
jury which no judge has the right to
ignore.
The public purposes, which the law
was intended to execute, has behind
them the deep conviction of thous-
ands of persons who should not be
thwarted in what they conceive to
be for the public good.
mo reparation is possible If 1t IS.
furthermore, It is, at best, delicate
matter for adjustment. To tie hands
of other public officers, in the ex-
eeution of their duties as they under
stand them, and the books are full
of admonitions against doing so, ex
cept in a very clear case.
"Here not only is a case not clear,

against interfering with the carriage
of stock necessary for the crew
sations on East bound voyage. Plain
