Polish Official Wants
Liquor Laws Repealed

Warsaw. Rumors that the Minis
try Of Finance intended to cancel res
trictions on the sale and consumption
of alcoholic drinks are confirmed by
the proposition made by M. Grabski,
Finance Minister.
His new bill proposes to allow free
sale and consumption of all drinks con-
tanning under four percent pure alcohol
(the present limit is two and a half
percent), and to allow as maximum
strength of drinks go per cent pure
alcohol instead of the present maximum
of 30 per cent 1t is further proposed
to cancel entirely the prohibition on
drinks in railways and railway stations
and the sale of drinks on holidays and
the eve of holidays and on Sundays.
The minister declared that the pres
ent restrictions do not diminish the
consumption OF alcohol, while they do
lead to frequent violations of the law,
and result in loss to the state owning
to illegal transactions in the sale of
alcoholic liquor on which no taxes can
be collected.
1t is thought that the Diet is too
dry, however, to share the opinions of
the Minister, and that he will have
difficulty in getting his bill passed in
its present form.

A new angle arose in the trial of
Jacob Greenwald, slated to appear in
circuit court this morning on statu-
tory charges brought by Helen Harms,
when Robert English, 1888 Fremont
avenue, was also arrested just before
six o'clock Tuesday evening on sim
liar statutory charges made by the
case came as result of the investiga-
tions of District Attorney Morris Bar
nett in preparing for the trial sched-
uled to begin today.
On Tuesday afternoon the complain
ing witness came to the office of Dis
trict Attorney Morris Barnett and re-
told her story which in January fur
nished the basis for the arrest of
Greenwald and his later release on
bonds for trial. Since his arrest a
baby daughter has been born to the
girl and the parentage of the child is
now in question.
Involves Two Other Kenoshans.
While the young girl in the story
told to the district attorney on Tues
day made no substantial changes in
the testimony which she is to give re-
garding Greenwald, she likewise told
of relations with two other young men
prior to the time when she became ac-
quainted with Greenwald. She al
legged that Robert English had been
responsible for her delinquency and
also named another former Kenosha
young man, who has not yet been
placed under arrest.
English was found Tuesday evening
by Detectives Rock and McCluskey and
while he did not admit any of the
charges made several damaging state
ments.
Il would never have returned to
Kenosha had / known that this case
was in the COURTS" Detective McClus-
key declares that he said.
He was held for preliminary hear
ing and will be arraigned as soon as
the proper papers can be drawn.
y Because of the yOuth>of the girl, the
charges are most serious ones. At
torney Roy Stephenson who repre-
sents Greenwald stated that the new
angle in the case might call for a re-
quest for postponement of the trial.
District I Attorney Morris Barnett
maintains that the new arrest has no
bearing whatever on the charges made
against Greenwald and that the first
case may proceed as slated.
No attempt is being made to estab-
lish the paternity of the child but
each defendant is arraigned on a
statutory criminal charge; it being al
legged that the girl was under the age
of consent.
