SPOKANE, April 13.-In the Democratic State Convention which met here today and seem ed harmoniously bent on singing the praises of Gov. Alfred F. Smith and muting State issues, A. Scott Buillitt. Seattle lawyer who made sensational race for United States Senator in 1926 against Senator Wesley l.. Jones, sounded the opening bars of an anti-Hartley hymn in his key note speech, trumpeting notes which have aroused discord in Washington for years.
 Outlining a program of Demo- cratic policy which he commend ed to the platform committee, Bullitt mentioned the separation of education from politics, faster construction of highways, pri- mary law with New England ballot, farm relief, shingle tariff. and the Columbia Basin project.
 In every State issue he men tioned, Bullitt attacked the prin- .ciples and policies of Gov. Hart ley. He asked forward looking Democrats" to cut the issues clearly and fight them to a fin- ish" rather than to "hide behind a platform of harmless generali- ties. '
 He bespoke united Democ- racy,' and said the "chief issue in the coming campaign is wA5ther Washington is going 10 have four more years of Hartley and the kind of adminitration he has given the last four years.

 Demand of Cout

WASHINGTON, April 13-A pro posal that congress authorize a thorough appraisal of the perform ance record of every officer in the prohibition service to elim. mate inefficient and corrupt agents was made by the Better Government league today.
 The recommendation was made in vigorous attack upon the value of the civil service tests which resulted in the flunking of three-fourths of the prohibition personnel The league asserts that formal tests. however well conceived. are not proper means of determining whether the pres ent prohibition enforcement off cers should be retained or elim- mated.
 Some of the. present force un- doubtedly are inefficient and cor rupt and ought to be eliminated" :" the league states. These indi- viduals cannot be detected with certainty through any formal tests yet devised but should be judged by the work they actually have done as prohibition enforcement officers.
 Congress should authorize the expenditure of $10,0OO to $25, 900 for making careful appraisal of the performance on the job of each officer. Canada successfully conducted such appraisals in the department of customs and inter- nal revenue. The forces in the government offices at Ottawa were reduced from 1,200 to TOO"
 The league charges that the se- lection of prohibition officers has been bungled since the Volstead act was passed to the present. If assails those responsible for the Volstead act for failing to pro vide for competitive tests at the outset.

Odor of Mash Does
 Not Wmrant Raid,
 U. s. Court Decide.

MINNEAPOLIS, Minn., April 15 -Odor of mash is not sufficient evidence that a still is in opera. ton and does not warrant raid of home without search warrant, Federal Judge w. A. Cant ruled in directing a verdict of not guilty in a liquor case here.
 A prohibition agent detected the odor of mash in the rear of 8 home here and, without a warrant, entered the place, arresting James Smith, one of the occupants. Mash and a basement still were found.
 Judge Cant held a raid without a warrant could be made "only when a valid arrest has been made on the premises" and to have a valid arrest the officer must have evidence or knowledge which makes him reasonably cer- tain crime is being committed in his presence.
 "In this case, the agent had req SoHdDle hhoWlcuSc tiicic ""o iioSn on the premises. But the presence of mash does not necessarily inn ply the presence of a still. There fore, the arrest for possession of still was not valid.'
 Judge Gant's action is in oppo- sition to a recent decision here of Federal Judge Joseph w. Molly neax, who held that sense oi smell was as efficient as any other fac tor in leading officers to the scene of crime violation.
