policy. The meeting was the first of
a series intended to evolve for sub

President Samuel Gompers pre-

The report probably will be pre-

Departmental meetings carried

HILL IS FOUND
NOT GUILTY
Congressman Is Freed on the
Charge of Making Wine
and Cider at Home

BALTIMORE, Nov. 13.-Repre-
sentative John Philip Hill, of Balti-
more, was acquitted by jury in
United States court today of viola
ting the Volstead law by manufac-
turing intoxicating wine and cider
at his home, West Franklin street.
The fifth and sixth counts of the
indictment, which charged Colonel
Hill with maintaining common
nuisance at his home. were dismissed
under instructions from Judge Nor
RS A. Soper, who presided at the
trial.
The trial was the result of a test
case forced by Colonel Hill, who
maintained the Volstead law gave
the farmer a right to manufacture
cider and wine. but withheld from
the city man the right to manufac-
ture beer.
The trial brought from Judge Soper
the opinion that the clause OF the
Volstead act refining beverages of
more than half of one percent alco-
holic content as illegal did not apply
to home made wines and cider, pro-
vided the product is nonintoxicating
"in fact
Judge Soper also indicated by his
rulings and his charge to the jury
that the burden rested upon the gov
ernment to show that such home
products were Intoxicating in fact.
and violation of the law.
The congressman's case was given
to the jury about 1:45 o'clock yes
terday afternoon. When nearly four
hours of deliberation failed to bring
an agreement. Judge Morris A. Soper
adjourned court, authorizing the
jury to return a sealed verdict If a
decision was reached.
Only twice last night was there
any word from the jury. On one oc-
casion copy of section 29 of the
Volstead act was requested. This
section relates to home manufacture
of cider and fruit juices. Later the
jurymen asked for a dictionary.
Judge Soper in his charge to the
jury yesterday said there were but
two questions for it to decide
whether Mr.. Hills beverage was
wine and whether 1t and the cider
were in fact intoxicating. The bur-
den of proof as to the intoxicating
nature of the liquors. he said. rested
upon the government, and the con-
gresham was entitled to all reasona-
BILE doubt.

BUTLER MADE.
j. 8. SENATOR
G. O. P. Chairman, Friend of
Coolidge, Named in Place
of Senator Lodge

BOSTON, Nov. 13.-William NJ.
Butler, lawyer and manufacturer and
chairman of the Republican national
committee, today was appointed by
Governor Cox TO succeed the late
Henry Cabot Lodge as United States
Senator from Massachusetts. The
governor, it was said, has assurances
that Mr.. Butler will accept.
The appointment is for approx
mately two years as the seat cannot
be filed by election until the next
general election in 1926. This is in
accordance with law enacted two
years ago, giving the governor au-
thority 10 appoint a successor to fill
such vacancies as may develop be-
tween elections.
Senator Lodges term would have
expired in 1928, and the winner of
the election two years hence will
serve only until that time.
The senator designate will qualify
at Washington in time TO take his
seat when congress convenes on De-
eember I.
Mr.. Butler, whose political activi-
ties had been suspended for several
years, was ready to take the field
this fall for the Republican nomina-
ton for United States senator in op-
position to David I. Walsh, Demo-
crat, but President Coolidge's wish
that the manufacturer undertake di-
rection of the Republican national
campaign brought him into the
larger field as chairman of the ma
tional committee instead. The sue
cess of the Republican campaign was
followed by a vacation intended to
last two or three weeks, but Senator
Lodges grav illness cut it short.
II had been understood that Mr..
Butler would have a place in the
new cabinet of President Coolidge,
and that continued association with
the President in this connection was
desired by him, but the senator's
death changed the plans.
The senator-designate who prac-
ticed law at New Bedford for years
and was elected to the House and
senate, serving as president of the
latter body. over a period of six
years before he came to this city in
1895, has been active prin cipally as
head of cotton manufacturing inter
ests since that time. His interests
also included power and railway
companie..
