NEW YORK. April 4.-Whisky and
alcohol valued at $125.00O were seized
today by prohibition agents In a
Bronx warehouse, where, they said,
It had been stored by Thomas C.
Craven of Boston and New York.

spiracy to violate the Volstead act.
The arrests were made upon the
complaint of special agents. who de-
clared Craven had negotiated with

from Cuban distillery. The arrests
were made during the removal of ten
drums supposed to contain alcohol,
for which the agents said they had
paid an initial sum of $500.
The drums were found to be filled
with water. The conspiracy charge,
however, held, United States Attorney

used as sample" was sufficient evil

Vegetable Growers
Plan Organization

M'RAE, Ca, June 2.-Plans are
being worked out here for the or
ganization Of an association of veg
etable growers. At recent meet
ing held to discuss the proposed or
ganization, more than thirty farm
ers were present and each OF them
agreed to plant from two to twenty
acres in vegetables. 1t is estimated
that it will require around 1000
acres to supply enough produce to
require the services Of a man to
market the vegetables. The present
plans would place the marketing in
the hands of c. c.. Childs, manager
of tn elocal dewberry association,
who has had a wide experience in
marketing. The vegetables to be
grown will include cabbage, green
peas, beets, radishes, beans and
strawberries.

It is the firm determination OF
the district attorney that once she
is inside of the penitentiary she will
stay there until either she has
served her sentence or has been
pardoned Under a recent law her
escape from jail while under sen,
tence automatically operated to dis
miss her appeal. This law has not
yet been tested in the courts.
In order to get a decision the dis
trict attorneys office was prepared
to apply to the courts to issue com
mitment papers. If that application
was granted they expected to hand
them to the deputy sheriff in
charge of Mrs. Phillips on arrival
here and he would keep on to San
Quentin. Should legal opposition de-
velop then she would be held here
until the court acted.
Meanwhile Mark Bailey, a new

prisoner be handed over to him. 1t
is one that always is cool and shady
in that it has no outside exposure,

from the Los Angeles prison was
not voluntary, there is good
chance that her case will be re-
opened, according to Attorney Van

ALABAMA JUDGE
SAYS JACKS trial
WAS MOCKERY''

BIRMINGHAM, Ala, June l.
Refusing to "go through the mock
cry" of another trial, Judge o. A.
Steele, of the Etowah circuit, to-
day passed the case of the state
against Ernest G. Jacks, charged
with assault with intent to murder
in connection with the flogging of
Dr. J. d. Downing, health officer.
Jacks was acquitted yesterday on
a charge Of kidnapping in connection
with the case. A demonstration
that shook the court room followed
announcement of the verdict.
when men will break out and
applaud in a courtroom" said the
judge, "the atmosphere is such that
a far trial cannot be had. When
public sentiment becomes so in
tense, and partisan feelings enter a
trial, as has in this case for the de-
PENDANT, 1 would not again go
through the mockery of It,"
Judge Steele continued: Under
the circumstances that surround the
courthouse at present, I would no.
try one of these other cases. Jurors
are only men, and however honestly
they may try, they cannot help but
be influenced by the clamor."
In passing other cases in connec-
ton with the flogging over the pro-
test of defense attorneys, Judge
Steele said:
1.-THE defendant Is always ready
when the state is not. 1 abhor a
verdict rendered by outside in
fluence. Every case should stand on
it's own merits
A verdict of not guilty was rem
dered 4C minutes after the case was
given the jury late yesterday. A
demonstration of wild shouting,
hand-clapping, stamping of feet
and laughter followed the reading
of the verdict. Rapping for order
on the part of Judge Steele appear
ed to accomplish nothing, the de-
lnonstration spending itself when
leaders in the rear of the court room
Quieted down.
The Judge ordered the doors of
the room closed to prevent any per-
son f. ON leaving, and asked all per-
sons who participated to come front.
Ona man came forward with hest
fancy. He was cpmplimented for
his manhood and congratulated for

Steele said earnestly:

as one of the farm commodities to
receive the benefits of the federal
loan act as amended by the Lenroot-
Anderson bill at the last session of
congress was made in a resolution
passed by the organization commit
tee.
The resolution, which was intro
duced by J. w. Coleman, of Moul-
trie, demanded recognition for pea
nuts as collateral for loans from the
federal intermediate credit banks
created under the Lenroot- Anderson
act, and called on Georgia's senators
and representatives in congress to
get behind the federal farm loan
board, which, with the department
of agriculture, has chcarge of the
administration of the act
Judge Shepard Bryan, of Atlanta,
attorney for the peanut association,
brought the matter to the attention
of the organization by reading a
Washington dispatch in which it was
declared that federal farm loan
board by an arbitrary ruling has
declared that peanuts could not
qualify for consideration by the
banks which will be established for
the purpose of administering the
measure"
While admitting that the CORE
spondent who wrote the dispatch
probably did so with all honesty of
purpose, Judge Bryan expressed ex-
treme doubt that the federal farm
loan board had ever made such rul-
ing. He said he had talked with
representatives of the department
oe agriculture and of the federal
farm loan board, the two agencies
that have charge of the administra-
ton of the act, and gained no such
impressions from them. 1t is true,
he said, that these agencies have the
power to say what commodities will
have the benefits of the act in the
way of a loan, but nothing they
have said to him has indicated that
they have made such a ruling or
rOntemnlate SUch action.
