SEARCH AND SEIZURE ACT
UPHELD BY HIGHEST COURT

The Ohio Supreme Court on Octo.

search warrant needs only assert that
the person making the affidavit "be-
lieves" Intoxicating liquor is in the
place. William Abt, Milford Center,
was convicted before Mayor A. B.
Scott of that village following the sci
zure of liquor in a search conducted
under authority of a warrant issued
under affidavit in which Marshall J
L. Pierson swore he believed" Abt
had liquor. The case was appealed to
the common pleas court on the ground
that the search violated the provision
of the state Constitution forbidding
unreasonable searches and seizures"
The common pleas court found in

SHIPPERS TRY TO HIDE
FRENCH LIQUOR IN HIDES

Customs officials on October 10

the United States on wholesale scale.

tripped and the barrel crashed into
an iron girder. A customs inspector
standing near by expected to see
brine in which hides usually are packed
gush from the broken slaves. The ex-
pected flow was not forthcoming.
Opening the barrel, he found inside
4S bottles of Scotch, benedictine, and
apricot brandy. A few hides were
used for packing. He tapped five
more barrels and in each were found
4S bottles of contraband liquor. Re-
port was made to Deputy Surveyor
Sanders who ordered the entire ship
ment seized and taken to the APP
praisers' stores for examination. II
each barrel contains the same amount
of liquor the estimated value of the
seizure will be about $4,000.
Almost every French ship brings in
shipments of "hides" Customs of
fcials now fear that thousands of
cases have been struggled into the
country. Arrests in this case are
promised soon, as it is said both ship
pers and consignees are known.

WHAT THE Current MAGAZINES ARE SAYING ABOUT
PROHIBITION AND LAW enforcement
(Reviewed by Emma L. Transeau)

Mountains, and from the Canadian line
to the Gulf of Mexico"
Mr.. Boyd thinks that our national
prohibition law was secured perhaps
twenty-five years in advance of vast
population, mostly foreign, who had
been brought up on spirituous and malt
liquors and regard glass of beer or
wine as we regard cup of tea or coffee,
who have been given a vote and in
mary states hold the balance of power
But we passed the law without waiting
for them to catch up with the rest OF
us. Now, "It's in the Constitution and
it's there to stay" but we are con
fronted with a situation about which
something must be done That some
thing is not to let back wine and beer.
He says:
/ have yet to hear of anyone who
says he wants to see the saloon rein
stated in any portion of the land. If
we had light wines and beer, it seems
to me the saloon would follow as a
matter of course 1t would also fol-
low that stronger liquors, whatever we
might call them, would be served in the
places where light wines and beer were
sold. 1t is notorious that those en-
gagged in the liquor traffic have no re-
spect for law. If the distillers and
brewers and saloonkeepers had shown
a decent respect for law, if they had
obeyed the wholesome regulations that
lawmaking bodies sought to throw
around the liquor traffic, prohibition
could never have been put over. But
think it may be said without fear
of contradiction that no law in re-
straint of the liquor traffic was ever
put upon the statute books of any
state which the liquor men did not
daunt and violate and spit upon, and
they would do it again.
AS to violations of the law, they are
going on it is true (the law did not
change the character of the thousands
of prohibition liquor sellers), but
Mr.. Boyd sees,
More food in the cupboards OF the
families dependent upon the labor
of the head of the house for support
than ever before, better clothes upon
the backs of the women and children,
more furniture in the houses and more
comforts all along the line, even in
the tenement districts of New York
and Chicago.
Mr.. Boyd is sure that "the enemies
of prohibition might just as well make
up their minds, now as later, that they
are not going to get rid of it. They
are not even going to get light wines
and beer" He makes two recommen-
dations as to what Congress should
do and if it does, twenty-five or thirty
years from now we shall have a gener-
alton which knows not the saloon and,
knowing it not, except by hearsay, will
no longer clamor for SO much as light
wines and beer"

THE DRINK PROBLEM IN THE
UNITED STATES
(By H. Perry Robinson)

The size of this United States enters
into this English writer's conception of
our problem in dealing with drink.
He cites-and llustrates-the reply an
Englishman once made to the familiar
question, What do you think of our
country2" He replied: 81 don't; ]
can think of some spots in it, but only
several men working together could
think of it all at once" Mr. Robinson
does not try to think of our prohibi-
ton policy as a whole. He balances
opposing items, as: At clubs, offices,
and dinner tables in New York and
Washington during the months of
rapid state ratification of the submitted
amendment he listened to stories of
biackmail being used against legisla-
tors to brighten them into voting for
ratification When he asked about
this in Utah, the answer was, "Why
should anyone use blackrnail to Sc
cure the passage of law which every
one wants to see passed."
He had the unfortunate experience
of being dined by employers of labor
who told him over glasses of liqueurs
and wine what benefit prohibition
had been to their workmen, and he has
found many ladies" in well-to-do
houses who are expert mixers of cock
tails. The diminution in Saturday
night squandering and drunkenness
among the masses of factory workers
he thinks is offset by the spirit of con-
tempt for. law, matter in which,
though he says it with humility, the
American people can not we'll afford
much retrogression.
One is not greatly surprised to find
that he thinks we are warning rather
than an example to Great Britain, af-
ter reading that the worst of the Brit
ish public houses come nowhere near
the average badness of Our former
saloons. Perhaps the reported queues
of children and baby-carriages waiting
outside British public houses for the
return of the mothers is excluded from
the comparison.

maritime belt marks the limit OF a
nations territorial jurisdiction over
the adjacent ocean has never been
urged more positively by any gov
eminent than it has by our own, now
and then, and exceptions to that doc
trine have never been stipulated more
frequently or with greater solicitude
to its own special interests by any
government than by the British. So
on the score of consistency at least
we seem to be quits.
Opinions are quoted which have
held the, territorial limit of waters to
be the range OF guns. Mr.. Corwin's
opinion is:
While claim to exercise territor-
ial sovereignty beyond the three-mle
limit would be one thing, a claim to
prevent beyond the three-mile limit
the doing of acts which are calculated
to have their chief effect within that
limit is far different thing, and one
to which, provided the reasonable
necessities of the case are not ex-
ceeded, no objection should be raised
by any friendly government.
From the point of view of morals
and common sense, our government is
entitled to take reasonable measures
to prevent schemes Matched abroad
for the violation of our laws from
taking effect within our territory.
FROM the same point of view it is not
entitled to NEEDLE with the purely
domestic concerns of the merchant
vessels of other nations that put into
our ports for legitimate purposes, even
though it might thereby promote the
interests of American shipping.
These two propositions constitute
the essentials of the present issue be-
tween the United States and Great
Britain with reference to the applica-
ton of the Volstead Act to foreign
shipping. 1t is therefore earnestly to
be hoped that the two governments
will speedily reach an adjustment
which embodies recognition of the
fact. The case is one which calls for
international comfy all around - in
other words, for common sense and
ordinary friendliness.

POISON LIQUOR SELLING
HELD MURDER IN CHICAGO

A Chicago coroner's jury on Octo-
Der s held Earl Huse, a janitor, to the
grand jury on a charge OF man
slaughter. The case is unique in view
of the fact that Huse was five miles
away from the man for whose death
he is held, at the time when the muir
der was committed. The murdered
man was John Mccormick, shot to
death during struggle with ]. A.
Foss, policeman, and John Stevens,
Waterman. The recommendation of
the croner's jury was made after testi-
mony by McCormick's widow that
Huse sold her husband liquor short
time before he was shot, and that his
inebriated condition provoked the ar
gument which resulted in his death.
