LIQUOR DECISION GIVEN
 BY WESTERN COURT
Private Stocks Immune Except Proof Of Sale or Commission
 Of Crime.

San Francisco, Feb. IT ,ul- Private stocks of liquor are immune from seizure by prohibition agents unless such seizure Is legally predi- cated upon evidence of sale or un- less there Is proof that it Is being used in the commission Of crime, the United States circuit court of appeals here has ruled.
 This decision was handed down yesterday when the court ordered the return of liquor seized by federal prohibition agents in a raid at the home of Thomas Fabri. of San Fran : cisco, The court also ruled that Ill warrants must be returned to its owner. whether its possession was legal or illegal, and could not be destroyed by the government.
 'We think that both upon princi- pie and weight and trend of decided cases. the view must be taken that where. as here. upon an unlawful seizure in a dwelling house, govern ment agents seize property. the pos. ses of which may or may not be lawful. the person from whose pos session 1t is taken is entitled to its restoration" said the court
 The court held that to resist ro turn of liquor illegally seized the government must prove that 1t wa. being used in the commission of a crime.
 Government officials said the deci- sion established precedent under which innumerable stocks of liquor might have to he returned 10 their owners. and that it might have Il bearing on hundreds of cases now pending.
 The case had its beginning when prohibition agents. armed with a search warrant, raided Fabri's home and confiscated his liquor supply. Several months later United States District Judge Kerrigan quashed the indictment against Fabri when the defense offered evidence that there had been no legal ground for issu- ance of the search warrant. The de- fense. contending that Fabris con- stitutional rights had been violated petitioned for return of the liquor stock. Judge Kerrigan rejected this petition.
 Fabrl then appealed. contending that since the govel nment had offer cd no proof that he had been selling liquor. the search warrant had been without any legal force whatever.
 All three judges Of the circuit court of appeals subscribed to the decision. They are Judges William B. Gilbert, Frank S. Dietrich and Frank H. Eudkin.
