BERLIN.--A new device for stop.

The new device is worked by an

LANSING. Mich, November %
Counsel for Fred Palm, convicted re-
Gently of possessing pint of gin and
sentenced to life Imprisonment under
Micbigan's new criminal code provid-
fourth time after a felony, will ap-
neal 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 announcement
following 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 pos
session of liquor felony.
The appeal, Mr.. Cuvillier said. would
be based largely upon the fact that
the eighteenth amendment declares
illegal possession of liquor, unless di,
rectly or indirectly connected with
sale, a misdemeanor. while the Michi
gan law makes such an offense
felony.
He also will contend that life impris
onment for possession of a pint of gin
is Cruel and unusual and contrary
to the provision of the Federal Consti
tuition prohibiting excessive punish
ment for law violations.
Mr. Cuvillier declared the Michigan
law the most severe in the United
States. The only approach to it, he
said was the law in Indiana barring
use of liquor in medical cases.
