MICHIGAN LAW
TO BE TESTED
IN u. s, COURT
Man Sentenced TO Life Impris.
onment- For Having Pint of
Gin Will Appeal

Lansing, Mich, Nov. 29:-tR-
Counsel for Fred Palm. convicted
recently of possessing a pint of gin,
and sentenced to life Imprisonment
under Michigan's new criminal code
providing life sentences for persons
convicted a fourth time after a
felony, will appeal the sentence to
the United States district court Of
appeals at Cincinnati.
Louis A. Cuvillier Of New York,
chairman and general counsel of the
National Constitutional Liberty
league Of America, made this an
nouncement following q conference
with Harry +. Hittle, attorney for
Palm.
Cuvillier said his interest in the
case was incidental to the general
campaign to be launched against a
provision Of the code that holds
possession of liquor a felony.
Tho appeal, Mr.. Cuvillier said,
would be based largely upon the
fact that the 18th amendment de-
clares illegal possession of liquor,
unless directly or indirectly con-
nected with sale, a misdemeanor,
while the Michigan law makes such
m offense . felony.
He also will contend that life i'm
prisonment for possession of a pint
Of gin is "cruel and unusual" and
contrary to the provision of the fed
era1 constitution prohibiting excess
sive punishment for law violations.
Mr.. Cuvillier declared the Mich
iean law the most severe in the
United States. The only approach
to It, he said, was the law in In.
diana barring use Of liquor in med
ical cases.

STATE Mill AND ELEVATOR, WHICH COST
OVER $3,000,000, IS ACTUALLY WORTH
$2,427, ,79l, REPORT TO GOVERNOR SHOWS
Difference Due to Decline Of
Building and Machinery
Costs - Better Operating
Showing Possible If Mill
Were Listed at Net Sound
Value

Duplication of the state mill and
elevator property at Grand Forks
would cost $2,427,791.17, according
to a report filed with Governor A. G..
Sorlie by the Lloyd Thomas company
Of Chicago, ILL.,, appraisal engineers.
Commenting on the report, made
available to the press today, Cover
nor Sorlie pointed out that it lists
completely, for the first time. the
property owned by the state mill and
elevator association and gives, for
the first time, the. actual value of
the property.
Since $3.OOO.0OO was invested in
building the mill it is obvious. the
governor said, that losses other than
those due to depreciation have oc-
Cured since the property was built
and placed in operation. This loss,
he said, is due to the decline Of build
ing and machinery costs since the
property was built.
Private Companies Take Loss
Privately owned companies wrote
off this loss as rapidly as it occurred
and have long since put their finan-
cial houses in order" the COVER
nor said. Because of the sharp
drop in the value Of properties built
during and Immediately after the
war. many firms reorganized, wrote
off their losses and placed themselves
on sound footing by squeezing the
water out Of their valuations. It-has
never been done in the case of the
state mill and elevator because it
is statc-oWned concern. Every
business man who stopped to think
about it would know that the prop
erty was overvalued and could be
replaced for less than It's original
cost.
I'VE still have $1,50O.OoO for which
bonds were issued to finance oper-
ations Of the mill because the value
OF money doesn't change although
the quantity Of given article which
3 certain sum Of money will buy
does change. But Of the $4,000. 200
which the mill cost we have. now !
property which,sif IL weke new,
would cost only 32,l27, ,701.17.
Still the mill management is ex.
pected to pay interest On $4,000, 900
ont Of the earnings Of . PROPERTY
worth $670. 900 less than that figure
i{ It were new. Since the mill ISN'T
new the handicap is even greater.
The appraisal places the going value
Of the propefty at $2,2l0,l6 1920

VETS ASK FUND
OF 3 MILLION
FOR CAMPAIGN
Plans For National or State
Referenda Outlined at
Private Dinner

New York. Nov. 29.-(AP)-A
fund of $3,000,000 is want ID by the
Association Against the Prohibition
Amendment to conduct q national
campaign to ascertain the voters
views a3 to whether the 18th
amendment should be repealed OF
modified.
Captain William II. Stayton of
Washington, D. c., chairman Of the
association outlined plans for ma
tional or state referendum at q pri-
vatc dinner last night at the Union
League club, to which 297 speakers,
many of them prominent Republi-
ems, were invited.
Secrecy Maintained
A cloak Of secrecy was thrown
about the affair and just what &C.
.tion, II any, was taken, was not re.
vealed. Newspaper men were not
invited. When the dinner broke up
the diners were uncommunicative o.
to what had ken place. They
hastened to their motor cars in the
rain and parried Questions.
The sponsors Of the dinner, headed
by George w. Wightman, New York
merchant, maintained that the at
fair was purely ! social one, Of NO
public or political significance. The
guest list was not announced.
Besides Captain Stayton, other
speakers were DR.. Nicholas Murray
Butler, president Of Columbia uni
versity; former United States Sem
ator James w. Wadsworth, Jr., and
former Representative John PHILIP
Hill Of Maryland.
Two Letters to Each Voter
Before the dinner Captain Stay
ton said it was planned to send two
letters to six million voters next
year, 1t An estimated cost Of IL
cents per voter. He figured thai
from, q, ,700, 900. to c,000, 900 would
be needed in the laext four years
He said the association would seek
national referendum plank in the
platform Of the Republican and
Democratic parties on the theory
that it was the duty Of political par
ties to find out what the voters
wanted. If the national parties re-
fused to incorporate such = plank in
their platforms q movement will be
made for referenda in the several
states.
Former Senator wadsworth, who
was defeated for reelection by Rob-
crt F. Wagner, Democrat, was out
spoken in his ideas. He announced,
before the dinner, that he would be
. candidate for delegate at large to
the next national Republican con-
vention' and that he hoped the con-
vention would meet the prohibition
issue squarely.
Meanwhile. Senator Borah. speak
ing at Yale university, said: "This
business Of . referendum will get
us nowhere. Nominate candidates
for the presidency who are either
for or against the enforcement or
repeal Of the prohibtio. law and
then we will have a real referen-
dunn" The senator termed ullifica-
tion ''infamous, .cowardly and
slimv."
