Brown told the two commissions that
their principal purpose is to allow for

Ut his argument he referred to cases
in Washington where the Government
expended enough in the construction
of sewers to have purchased and de-
yclOpcd into parks the areas drained.
Sanitary sewers and storm water
drainage should be handled separately
and the simplest way to provide the
storm water drainage is by the retention
of open valleys. he declared.

NEW YORK, March 3O.-TWo
customs men, in an official report
filed with superior officers, have re-
iterated their charge that Repre-
sentative William NJ. Morgan, dry
congressman from Ohio, had four
bottles of liquor in his luggage when
he returned from Panama Sunday
The accusation was made despite
repeated denialS by Morgan, who
said he had never taken a drink,
did not have any liquor when the
liner Cristobal docked here, and had
always supported the prohibition
law.
Declared Liquor?
The two customs men are l.. E..
Crawford and James McCabe. The
former examined Morgan's luggage
while the latter watched. They de-
scribed the incident as follows:
Have you any liquor?" Crawford
asked.
yes, four bottles,' Morgan re-
piled.
The four bottles were taken out
and placed on q packing case. Nor
gan insisted he was on official gov
ernment business and was entitled
to free entry into the port.
The congressman insisted he
would take care" of this or that
man when I get to Washington"
Negligence Charged
Finally a deputy surveyor was
summoned, and after Morgan had
telephoned customs officials, the
deputy surveyor ordered the baggage
cleared. The four bottles were re-
stored to Morgan.
Then prohibition guards at the
pier charged customs officials had
been negligent in allowing the
liquor to pass.
AS a result it was established that
when Morgan telephoned the customs
officials he had not mentioned that
he had liquor in his luggage.
