DECISION IN LIQUOR CASE
Right of Federal Officers to Arrest
Without a Warrant is Sustained


Judge Morris, in an opinion render
ed April Both, 1924, in the District
Court of the United States for the
District of Delaware, in a case grow
ing out of the arrest of Charles Alt
shuler, of Pennsylvania, while engag-
ed in transporting Intoxicating liquor
in the State of Delaware, sustained
the right of Federal Prohibition Of
ficers, under the VOlstead Act, to ar
rest men engaged in the transporta
ton of Intoxicating liquor, although,
at the time of the arrest they had no
warrant so to do.
Information had come to the Of
fcers that Altshuler was transporting
liquor in violation of the National
Prohibition Act, and on the date of
his arrest, they had specific inform
alton to the effect that he would prob
ably bring a load of liquor into Will
mingtOn and accordingly, the officers
stationed themselves along the Phila-
delphia Pike and when Altshuler ap-
preached stopped his car and searched
| it and placed him under arrest.
Altshuler thereupon filed a petition
for the return of the liquor, claiming
that the search and arrest were illeg-
al since it had been made without a
warrant. This question has been a
moot one since the inception of the
Prohibition Laws. Section 26 of the
Volstead Act, which is similar to the
State Law, prohibiting the transpOr-
tation of liquor, provides that the
Commissioner, his assistant, inspec-
tors or any officer of the law may,
upon discovering any person trans
porting Intoxicating liquor in viola
ton of law, arrest his forthwith and
seize the wagon, buggy, automobile OF
vehicle by means Of which the trans
pOrtation was carried on.
The purpose of this section of the
act was to make it possible for Of
fcers engaged in the enforcement OF
the liquor laws to apprehend violators
on the spot and without the necessity
of securing a warrant from the I. S
Commissioner or justice of the peace
it being obvious that the time en-
ployed in securing such a warrant
would allow the offender to escape
The case was argued by James H
Hughes, Jr., U. S. Attorney for th'
District of Delaware on behalf of the
Government, and by Philip L. Garret
and George Lilly on behalf of the de
, fendant. The gist of the Court
opinion is as follows:
"Altshuler's alleged Offense was be
ing committed in the presence of tn
officers at the time the arrest wa
made. The question of the right o
> Federal officers to make an indiscnm
> mate or general search of automobile
. is not here presented. In the case a
bar the officers had, at the moment q
arrest, personal knowledge of fact
y sufficient to induce an honest belief
y a reasonable man that Altshuler we
y in the act of transporting intoxicatin
u liquor unlawfully. The grounds whiC
"a raised the belief of guilt consisted

at the time the arrest was made.

LADIES! DARKEN
YOUR GRAY HAIR
Use Grandma's Sage Tea and
Sulphur Recipe and Nobody
Will Know

The use Of Sage and Sulphur for re-
storing faded, gray hair to its natural
color dates back to grandmothers time.
She used it to keep her hair beautifully
dark, glossy and attractive. Whenever
her hair took on that dull, faded or
Streaked appearance, this simple mix
ture was applied with wonderful eff
feet.
But brewing at home is mussy and
out-of-date. Nowadays, by asking at
any drug store fer bottle of "Wyeth's
Sage and Sulphur Compound, you will
get this famous old preparation, inn
proved by the addition Of other ingrc-
dients, which can be depended upon to
restore natural color and beauty to the
hair.
Well-known druggists say it darkens
the hair so naturally and evenly that
nobody can tell it has been applied
You simply dampen a sponge or soft
brush with it and draw this through
your hair, taking one strand at time
By morning the gray hair disappears,
and after another application or two, it
becomes beautifully dark and glossy.

his con duct under fire, was made a

until 1911 when he assisted in
overthroNving the government Of
President Davila in Honduras and
reinstating that of General Bon
lila, he spent the greater part Of
his time fighting or planning to
fight. Nicaragua, Salvador, Hon
duras and Guatemala were the
scenes of most of his fighting and,
IN large measure, he was instru-
mental in placing five presidents in
office by revolutionary tactics.
