depend largely on what the pitcher

reason it is important that the

Law
Injjunctions
Held Void
Contention That Volstead Act
Provides for Trial Without
Jury Is Upheld by Judge
Woodrough.
Iurist Dismisses the Suit

The injunctional features OF the
Volstead act, 80 far as they are ap-
Piled to a home, are held void and
unconstitutional. by Federal Judge
Woodrough. The judge yesterday dis
missed a request for an injunction
against Mr.. and Mrs. William Maier,
Omaha
Attorneys for the Maiers, in defense
of their plea for dismissal. declared
that the provisions Of article % OF The
national prohibition act declare for a
trial without jury Of convicted vio-
lators of the entire statute, in VIOLA
ton of the constitutional rights OF
citizens of the United States.
Their contention is upheld by Judge
Woodrough, who says. in part:
No Need for Juries.
"If, to suppress the liquor traffic,
this power can be conferred upon
equity courts, can see no very sound
reason why it could not be used to
suppress any crime In the calendar
of crimes. II 1t can be so used, then
the constitutional provision that all
crimes shall be tried by jury would
have no force but by the grace of
congress.
I'VE would have jury trials where
congress permits. but need have none
where a procedure by injunction is
provided for"
Past procedure under section p
has been for federal enforcement
agents to ask for a permanent In
junction against convicted liquor law
violators and a closing, for one year,
of the home in which liquor was
sold.' Injunctions have been granted
without the necessity of showing that
violations were continuing. the as
sumption being that the householder
who has violated the statute once will
do so again.
Case May BE Appealed.
When an Injunction has been
granted, under the section. a second
violation is tried in equity court with
out jury and the penalty imposed
II guilt IL established.
The Maiers' home was raided in
August. 1928, and Maier was found
guilty OF Illegal possession and sale.
Some time elapsed before he was
fined and the petition for an injunc-
tion was filed by federal authorities.
1t is probable that the case will be
appealed at once to the United States
supreme court.

Price
Here
Predicted
Slump in Refinery Cost Gives
Tank Wagons Profit Out Of
Proportion to Cost and
Retail Price.
Actral Cost Now II 3-4c

Recent reductions in the refinery
price of gasoline are expected to
bring forth cut In the retail price,
now 291-4 cents, in Nebraska, for
so.callel low test gas and 23 IA cents
for hiA test.
The open price for gasoline at the
refineri>s In oklahoma and elsewhere
has in the last few days dropped to
1912 cents. Freight rate to Omaha
IN 2 IA sents. making the cost to the
Omaha tank wagon owner IL 3-4
cents.
Filling stations and garages. which
operate on 2-cent margin OF profit,
are buying at Is IA cents, which
makes the profit to the tank wagon
owner "a cents.
The recent cut in the refinery price
has made the tank wagon owners
profit so out of proportion a reduc-
ton soon in the retail price is be-
lleved to be inevitable.
The price of high test gas Is con-
trolled by the price Of low test gas,
with a difference of cents all along
the line, so that whatever reduction
may be made in low test gas CORE
spending cut will be made in high
test.
According to reports from Chicago,
a reduction of cents a gallon in
the price to the filling stations and
garages by the Standard and Sinclair
oil companies is expected there.
In Chicago, however, predictions
are made of a price war between
these two companies in an attempt
TO get dealer business. whereas no
reduction would be made to the
public.
The cost Of gasoline IN Chicago, In
GLIDING transportation, is 1888 cents
and the dealer price is is cents.
Thus gasoline costs the tank wagon
owner more in Chics6s than 1t does
in Omaha, because of higher trans
portation costs. but Is sold TO the
filling station at less price than in
Omaha.

Third Farm Relief
Bill Approved by
Senate Committee
Chances for Agreement Now
Regarded as Remote With
Presentation of the Norris.
Burtness Measure.
By r. c. POWELL.

Washington Correspondents The Omaha Bee.
Washington. March 7.-Chances for
an agreement OF farm representatives
OF the senate on any one farm relief
measure became more remote today
WIN Senators George w. Norris of
Nebraska, Magnus johnson of Mime
sofa, Arthur Capper OF Kansas. and
E. F. Ladd of North Dakota. signed
a minority report OF the agricultural
committee and presented the Norris
Burtness farm relief to the senate for
consideration. This makes three bills.
tending to relieve the wheat farmer.
which may come before the senate.
They are:
The Norbeck bill providing a gov
ernmental loan OF $50. .000. 900 for
farmers in the wheat section 10 pur-
chase cattle IN order to start diyersih.
cation Of crops. II lie to come up
again Monday.
The McNary-Haugen bill calling
for governmental appropriation for an
export corporation to hold the export
crop for a friendly foreign market.
The Norris -Burtness bill calling
under amendment for $500. 100000 in
governmental appropriations for farm
ers TO hold their crop until the
market Is ready 10 pay the price de-
manded by the farmer.
The McNary Haugen bill with a
majority committee report will be the
second and if II is defeated: the Nor
ris-Burtness bill will be last for con-
sideration.
Rivalry between various factions
has put the various senators in the
wheat and farm belt in a peculiar
situation. IL has resulted In a com.
promise whereby nearly all the farm
belt. or insurgent senators. have
agreed 10 support the various bills as
they come up in the hope that In the
end some measure Of relief win be
found that viii be OF real benefit to
the farmer.
All OF the bills. according TO pres.
ent indications. win receive opposition
Of a majority of southern democrats
In the senate.
The minority report on the Norris,
Burtness bill is 80 worded that the
reader Is given 10 understand that
while those signing the minority re
port believe Il Is the best measure
for farm relief advanced they are will
ing to support all previous bills in the
hope that in the end democratic op-
position against anything that will
favor the farmer and give the pres
ent administration credit for his re
lief will be overcome.

Cass County Attorney

sneciaI pispatch to the Omaha Bee.
Plattsmouth. Neb.. March 7.--County
Attorney A. G.. Cole Of Cass county
rendered his resignation to the county
commissioners today. II was accept
ed.
Cole was indicted by the November
grand Jury on charge Of malfeasance
in office. The indictment was dis
missed on a technicality and the case
did not come TO trial.
J. A. Capwell of Elwood, democrat.
who was defeated by Cole In the 1922
general election, was elected his sue
osssor by the county board. Prev
iously, the office had been offered to
c. r. Tefft Of Weeping Water, who
declined.
Coles term had nearly three years
70 run, and 1t Is not known whether
Tefft will serve out the entire time or
only until the next general election.
An opinion will be asked OF the at
torney general.
Al the time of the grand jury, Cole
was barred from acting as prosecutor
by District Judge Begley. who based
his action on Coles opposition to the
calling of the grand jury and for
business reasons.
