OPEN BALLOTING SECURED
Change. in Sweden's Constitution
Enables Drys to Know How
Representatives Vote

David Ost1und, Representative in North
ern Europe for the World League
Against Alcoholism)
Both Houses of the Swedish Parlia-
ment on February 18 adopted a resolution
changing the Swedish Constitution pro-
viding for open balloting in the Riksdag.
This resolution was first adopted in 1922
but inasmuch as it was an amendment to
the Constitution it was necessary to be
confirmed after new elections of Parlia-
ment had taken place These elections
were held in 1924 in September.
This change in the Constitution is con-
sidered a great change in favor of appli-
cation OF democratic principles and will
especially be helpful to the drys. For
merly it was impossible for the voters to
have any full knowledge of how their
representatives voted in Parliament. Now
it will be as easy as it is in America for
the voters to keep in touch with their rep
'resentatives in Parliament and to let their
wants be known. The drys of Sweden
are organized and will surely make use

The organization work of the Anti-Sa-
loon League in Norway is progressing
favorably. A call to the different church
bodies has been issued asking for the cleo
ton of representatives to the Anti-Saloon
League body from these various church
organizations. Among the names thus
far found is that of the Bishop of Oslo,
the Rev. Johan Lunde
Generally the idea of a league of
church people fighting against the liquor
traffic has received splendid reception.
The success of the Anti-Saloon League
of Sweden has been a great help in pre-
pairing for League work in Norway. It
is expected that Anti-Saloon League work
will be fully organized early in the spring
of this year.

WINE coNsPIRAToRS GUILTY

Two former federal prohibition agents
and the four alleged heads of five mill
lion dollar fake sacramental wine ring
were recently found guilty before Federal
Judge Cliffe in Chicago. The defendants
face sentences of two years in the peni-
tertiary and fines of ten thousand dollars
each under indictments charging conspir-
acy and prohibition law violations.
The ring was disclosed when federal
agents found that permits to distribute
sacramental wine had been issued to 800
mythical Jewish congregations in and
around Chicago, applications for which
had been fraudulently filed in the names
of a number of rabbs.

DIRlCIBLE TAKES PHOTOGRAPHS OF RUM ROW
Rum Pirates Heave Conband
Low Over the Row; Pictures May Be Used by Prohibition
Unit to Aid Enforcement

The naval drigible Los Angeles in a
test fight from Lakehurst, NJ J., April II,
included in its trip a visit to rum row.
A large number of photographs were
taken of ships and activities on the row
where it is said several crews were seen
heaving cases of liquor overheard as the
giant dirigible swooped over them.
Twenty-four ships were counted at an
Choir along the row.
1t was intiniated that the photographs

use by the prohibition unit.
According to Washington dispatch,
the persons aboard the Los Angeles in
photographing rum row apparently acted
on their own initiative This was the
word received at the Naval Department,
with the comment, however, that in the
past the navy has cooperated with the in
ternal revenue service in preventing
smuggling.

u. S. SUPREME COURT DENIES
REVIEW TO VIOLATORS OF
THE VOLSTEAD ACT

The Supreme Court of the United
States on April 20 declined to grant writs
of certiorari in five cases involving viola
tons of the National Prohibition Act.
The case attracting the most attention
was that of Roswell O. Johnson, former
mayor of Gary, Indiana, who with Lewis
f. Barnes, president of the board of pub
lie works of Gary, Dwight Kinder, the
prosecuting attorney for Lake county,
Indiana, Blaz A. Lucas, Bryan S. Mar
covich, attorneys at law in the city of
Gary, Mike Oleska, were convicted in the
United States District Court of Indiana
for conspiracy against the Volstead Act.
These defendants were convicted by the
jury along with SIS others. The judgment
of the district court, as to the defendants
named, was affirmed by the Circuit Court
of Appeals and this petition for writ of
certiorari was sought by these defendants
seeking review of the judgment of the
Circuit Court of Appeals for alleged er-
rors in the conduct of the trial The prin-
cipal contention made by the petitioners
was that they were unduly prejudiced
during the trial of the cases by numerous

publications which appeared in the news
papers in the vicinity of Gary both before
and during the progress of the trial. 1t
was insisted that because of the character
of these articles that the defendants were
denied the right to fair and impartial
trial by jury guaranteed them by the Sixth
Amendment to the Constitution of the
United States. The action of the United
States Supreme Court in denying the ap-
plication of the petitioners means that the
judgment of the court will stand. The
petitioners in the case received the fol-
lowing sentences:
Mayor Johnson, Is months, $4,000 fine;
Lewis L. Barnes, president of the board
OF public works, Imprisonment for one
year and one day and fine of 81 900;
Dwight NJ. Kinder, prosecuting attorney
for Lake county, Imprisonment for one
year and one day and fine of $1,000. The
action of the Supreme Court in denying
the writ exhausts the last resource of the
defendants in securing any reversal by
the courts of the judgments entered
against llell. L lie lOldl Hu1lOeI OF Qe-
PENDANTS convicted by the jury in the cele
brated Gary conspiracy case was SIS.
Other cases in which the Supreme
Court refused to intervene were Louis
Abramson of Kentucky who contended
that the grand jury which indicted him
was not properly selected.
A. Guckenheimer & Bros. Co., Louis
Brown Louis Farkas, George Beck, and
others convicted in the courts of Pitts
burgh, Pa, on charges of illegally con-
spring to transport liquor upon fraudu-
lent permits.
Conviction of M. J. Dempsey, William
w. Walsh and the Keystone Brewing Co.
of Lackawanna county Pa, for contempt
of court for alleged refusal to observe an
injunction issued under the Volstead act.
Conviction of John F. Downs and Leroy
Davis, former prohibition agents and ia
cob Klein and Louis Stack of Jersey City
on charges of accepting money from
Kernstantz Urynowicz to protect him
from prosecution. Violators of the liquor
laws received small comfort in the an
nounced judgments of the Supreme Court
on Monday.

NEW PROHIBITION LEGISLATION
IN STATES

Most of these convened in January.
Many of them are still in session. A few
meet later in the year Reports are be-
ginning to be received showing lcgisla-
ton enacted for strengthening the provis-
ions OF the prohibition statutes in many
of the states. These changes vary from
an entire recodhcation of the prohibition
law, as IN Indiana, to mere minor changes
in phraseology in some states made
necessary in order to meet decisions of
the courts. The following reports have
been received to date:
ARKANSAS: A number of bills are
pending before the Legislature. A bill
making the possession of liquor for sale
unlawful and providing fine of from fifty
to one thousand dollars for violation of its
provisions has passed the Legislature and
received the signature of the governor.
COLORADO: An act which makes it
a felony to own, operate, or knowingly
have in possession any still used, designed
or intended for the manufacture of intoxi-
eating liquors. This act carries penalty
of imprisonment in the penitentiary for
years.
INDIANA: The prohibition statutes
of Indiana were found in a number of
statutes passed at different sessions of the
Legislature. Some of these acts which
had attempted to amend prior laws had
been held insufficient because of the
wording of the title. At the recent SEES
sion OF the Legislature a bill providing
for an entire recodihcation of the prohibi-
ton statutes in a single act was passed.
This makes few changes in the exist
ing law except to remedy the defects
pointed out in the earliest statutes and to
increase the penalties for certain classes
of offenses. This act makes the posses
sion of liquors unlawful. The prior act
providing for this has been declared in
sufficient by the Supreme Court
NEBRASKA: The Legislature of Ne
braska passed an emergency act amend
ing the prohibition statutes of that state
with reference to the penalties for viola
tons OF the act. This act makes the first
offense of transportation, sale or barter
of Intoxicating liquors misdemeanor
punishable by a fine of one hundred dol
lars and Imprisonment in the county Jail
for not less than 90 nor more than 90
days and for a second or subsequent Of
Tense declared that such violation shall be
a felony punishable by fine of not less
than FIVE hundred dollars nor more than
five thousand dollars and imprisonment
in the penitentiary not less than six
months nor more than two years. 1t also
provides that the transportation of more
than a pint of Intoxicating liquors shall
constitute prima face evidence that the
liquor is being, transported for the pur-
pose of sale.
NORTH DAKOTA: The Legislature
OF North Dakota strengthened the dehni-
ton of Intoxicating liquors in order to
meet certain rulings of the court in the
state. The change is in aid of the en-
forcement of the law.
