ST. LOUIS, Mo-, Aug. 1s. The
United States circuit court of appeals
in a majority opinion handed down
today, held that injunctions against
Volstead act violators are not per-
petual but are effective for one year
only. The ruling is understood to be
the first ever made by court on
the duration of such an injunction.
The majority opinion reversed the
action of District Judge Alba S.
Van Valkenburgh who found Charles
C. Webb of Kansas City guilty of
contempt of court in violating an
injunction and sentenced him to serve
seven months in Jail and pay a fine
of $500. 1t held that Judge Van
Valkenburgh erred and that Webb
was innocent of contempt charges and
must be discharged.
Webb, who conducted a roadhouse
near Kansas City was enjoined in
June, 1922, from selling liquor on the
premises. In October, 1924, he is
alleged to have sold liquor and the
contempt proceedings followed.
The decision was written by Judge
Lewis and concurred in by District

A re Made.
(By Dispatch A. P. wire)

SEATTLE, Wash, Aug. 18.-The
states purpose in introducing tests
mony concerning an unnatural affec-
ton" between Wallace Gaines and his
22year-old daughter, whom he is ac-
cused of choking and beating to death
June 16, was explained today by Dep.
uty Prosecutor Peyser, who summed
up the states case in the trial of
Gaines on a first-degree murder
charge.
The purpose of introducing evidence
of unnatural relations between the de-
fendant and his daughter was not to
prejudice the jury, but to show mo-
tive, Peyser declared. This murder
is not like one committed in a saloon
when the cause develops in quarrel
within a few minutes, but is one in
which the motive grew from the time
when the defendants relations with
his daughter began, for it could lead
to but one thing-this murder"
'It is not necessary for the state to
show that there was any brooding or
contemplation of the act long In ad,
vance. A matter of two or three Sec
onds is sufficient to show premedla,
tion," Peyser insisted.
"Circumstantial evidence is more re
liable than direct evidence of eye
witnesses Peyser said. "Circum-
stances are inanimate ana never lie.
Witnesses for the state are fair
cross section of the citizenry and have
no motive but to tell the truth. AL
ways in a case there is on the other
side members of the defendants fam
lily.
Can you imagine a wife, mother or
son, telling the whole Truth when It
will convict some member OF her FAM
lily? The principal witnesses for the
defense are the defendant, his wife,
his brother and relatives and employees
of the brother. Their testimony and
credibility should be weighed care
