u. S. Attorney
DEFENDS MORGAN
Aid Dry Congressman
on Liquor Charge

United States Attorney futile, at
New York, yesterday rushed to he
defense of Representative Morgan
charged with smuggling four bottles
of whiskey through the customs
here, altho the congressman voted
for the Jones bill, to sentence pro-
hibition victims to five years and
$4,000 fine.
futile announced that he had
questioned eight customs inspectors
whether they had found liquor in
Morgan's baggage, and they said
they had not. So, he declared, he
will take no action against Morgan.
The reliability of Tuttle's in
vestigation was considerably viii
ated, later, however, when he added
that Morgan's baggage was not
searched, as the congressman de-
clared that he came on official bust
ness, and demanded the freedom of
the port"
The charges against Morgan were
that the liquor was found in his
suitcase after the investigation.
