JUDGE THROWS OUT
ILLEGAL EVIDENCE
Dry Defendant Dismissed Be-
cause Search Was Made
Without Warrant.

Diminishing a prohibition charge yes
terday against Frank Boonis, So years
old, of the 900 block of Eighth street
southeast, because of illegal entry by
the raiding officers, Police Court Judge
Ralph Given said that evidence OBJ
tanned by such means will be rejected
by the court.
THE fourth amendment guarantees
security and safety to citizens in their
homes from unreasonable searches and
seizures and the prohibition law is not
superior to this law" the judge de-
clared in ruling that the warrantless
search for the alleged liquor was with
out probable cause
Sergt o. j. Letterman and his vice
squad made the raid on complaints that
liquor was being sold in the store con-
Quoted by Boonis. The establishment
was searched, but yielded no CONTRA
band liquid. The officers are said to
have then turned to the private quar-
tiers, where they found five pints of
alleged whisky. Sergt Letterman
claimed that although he had no war
rant, the store was public place and
he had right to search it.
Albert e. Stern, counsel for Boonis,
characterized the actions of the raiders
as "hi-jacking" and moved that the
evidence be suppressed. Judge Given
upheld his contention and Assistant
United States Attorney James Kirkland
agreed to a directed verdict for the
defendant.
Police in the past are said to have
made searches of this kind and been
supported by the courts, but Judge
Given made it clear that unless there
is probable cause to believe that liquor
is being sold in such place evidence
obtained without warrant will be de-
clared worthless.

than could the production of opium be
stopped at It's source.
Surveys already have been conducted
in this country to determine the amount
Of each of the derivatives of opium that
would be required to fill the legitimate
needs of the country.
In limiting the making of narcotics,
1t was believed that trouble would be
found in working out the quota to be
allocated to each country now engaged
in manufacturing. Several countries
do not now manufacture narcotics,
which would prevent the quota for each
country being fixed at the legitimate
needs of that nation.
Two proposals for dealing with the
question have heretofore been advanced
The first would strike at the source of
supply and limit the production of
opium. This has been considered by
many inadvisable, If not impossible,
in that it would deprive many growers
of their principal crop. The other
would limit manufacture of derivities by
international agreement.

EMBER DAYS OBSERVED
I'm CATHOLIC CHURCHES
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
ROME, September 18.-The "ember
days." three days of fasting and absti-
nence, occurring four times i'll the
course of the year, are now upon Rome
These days are observed throughout the
Catholic world.
Today, Friday and Saturday will be
marked here by special services. This
afternoon the stations of the cross were
sung in the basilica of st. Mary Major
on the Esquiline HILL Friday the OBJ
servance will be held in the Church of
the Twelve Holy Apostles near the COM
mercial center of Rome and Saturday
in st. Peters itself.
The origin of the term "ember days.
has been the subject of considerable
dispute. Some have held it came from
the Anglo-Saxon "Ymbren," meaning a
circle of revolution and thus denoting
the change of the seasons. Others have
maintained. that it comes from cor
ruption of "quatuor tempora." Latin
for 1.-The four times" In German this
becomes "quatember," whence the pres
ent term is easily derived.

INDIAN ROCK, Me-, September II
R).-E. C. auckland, chairman of the
board of directors of the New York
New Haven & Hartford Railroad, said
here last night that New England roads
would not submit to a consideration OF
Eastern lines, as proposed by the Della
ware e. Hudson Railroad in an applica-
ton filed with the Interstate Commerce
Commission at Washington.
Mr.. auckland said the New England
lines would not consider merger with
other roads east of the Hudson River.
If the New England roads are to be
consolidated it will be as a distinct
New England group, he stated, adding
that since the Storrow committee,
which investigated the matter of East
ern consolidation, made its report in
1923, there has been an overwhelming
sentiment for an all-New England
merger.

have been filed by the Chesapeake &
Ohio, Baltimore & Ohio and the
Wabash railroads.
One System Seen Essential.
The application signed by Ioree said
the Atlantic Seaboard from Canada to
Hampton Roads should be served by
one system of railways connecting ports
along the coast.
Action on any of the consolidation
proposals is considered unlikely before
January, when an agreement by the
OAA a SCLlCIdA
plan is expected A tentative plan has
been submitted to other members of

Pennsylvania Files Brief to Prevent
Control of b. r. &P.

The Pennsylvania Railroad today ask
ed the Interstate Commerce Commission
to deny the application of the Balti-
more Ohio for control of the Buffalo,
Rochester S1 Pittsburgh Railroad
The Pennsylvania contended that it
would not be in the public interest
to permit the Baltimore & Ohio to ac-
quire control of the Buffalo, Rochester
& Pittsburgh in advance of consolida-
ton proceedings contemplated by the
transportation act. That act directed
the commission to draw up a plan of
general railway consolidation which is
expected to be made public by Janu-
airy.
In its brief the Pennsylvania said it
was interested in the Baltimore &
Ohio's application because it is in COM
petition with the Pennsylvania and it
was expected that both lines would
compromise two of the large railway
system in Eastern trunk line territory
upon which the public will have to de-
pend for its transportation service.
