for medicinal purposes one pint OF

Before the supreme court, the
Lambert petition said, the govern
ment made the general assertion that
exhaustive hearings had been made
on the subject in congress and that
the facts obtained supported the pre-
scription limitation. This attitude
was characterized as "unintentionally
misleading" the petition declaring
that the average of a pint every
ten days was never made the sub
ject of any hearings and that no
facts were adduced to support IT,.
The government was challenged to
produce the text of everything i:
claimed constituted a hearing on the
subject.
In supporting the eighteenth amend
ment the petition said, the senate
judiciary committee did so with the
distinct understanding that the use
of liquor for beverage purposes only
was to be prohibited. This distinct
promise as to the intent of congress
had been disregarded by the courts,
it was argued.

The two employers, he said, were
Edward and Frank Kelly, brothers,
who sat among the defendants while
Newman told of his experiences with
a rum fleet. Newman who had told
of being employed by A. Bruce Bic
laski, head of the prohibition under
cover agents" was subjected to severe
cross examination by defense coun-
sci. Under this grilling he said he
was not sure who had paid him his
salary as government employe, or
whether he was listed as an en-
forcement agent or an informer.
When his rum running employers
failed to pay him, Newman said, he
wrote a letter to General Lincoln c.

At noon today the war game was
practically over. The principal ex-
peditionary force Of 1S, 900 men that
had been landed on the beaches east
of Narragansett Bay over front of
20 miles had been boxed" by the
