said this would make unnecessary the
passage Of the pending amendment
sponsored by Senator Sheppard, Demo-
crat, Of Texas. to have the Volstead act
provide punishment for the buyer.
Lowman explained that if the courts
upheld the charge, the Government
would proceed with future prosecutions
according to the Interpretation placed
on the VolStead act in those decisions
This particular section of the ma
tional prohibition law, he explained,
never has been interpreted by higher
court. The action of the police in
arresting Carley will be a test of this
particular section. If the courts uphold
ms arrest and he is convicted, the
Government will enforce the Volstead
act within the Interpretation of the
courts in this case"
It was explained that the United
States Court of Appeals held several
months ago in Philadelphia that a
buyer was not guilty of conspiring to
violate the national prohibition act in

HOOVER, BURNED,
KEEPS ON FISHING
President Out Again Today
Despite Effects of Expo
sure to Sun.
BY J. RUSSELL YOUNG;
STAFF Correspondent of The Star.

LONG KEY, Fla, February 13.-De-
spite the fact that the back Of his
hands have been burned almost raw
and are considerable swollen, and his
face and neck tomato red from ex-
posure in the sun, President Hoover Is
out again today in quest of sail fish.
Mr.. Hoover was utterly Indifferent to
suggestions from members of his party
that he lay-off fishing for a day to
give his hands a chance to heal. He
insisted that there was no pain, and
1t was apparent from his determined
look as the little flotilla Of fishing boats
headed for the fishing grounds far out
on the Atlantic, that he was all set to
personally capture the fishing honors of
his party, or at least to wrest from
Mrs. Harlan F. Stone, wife of Justice
Stone, the glory that has been hers
since she caught 7h-foot sail fish
yesterday afternoon weighing IS pounds.
The President returned from yester-
days fishing empty handed.
The President and his party did not
leave the Saunterer for the fishing
grounds until after o'clock this morn
ing. Their start was delayed an hour
by the arrival aboard of Col. Robert
M. Thompson Of New York, whose huge
house boat Everglades, which looks
like Mississippi River show boat
dropped anchor in the Gulf yesterday
a short distance from the presidential
party.
Plan TO Fish Late.
With the President in his small fish
ing boat today are Justice Stone and
Mark Sullivan. Mrs. Hoover, Mrs. Stone
and Mrs. Sullivan occupy another boat,
and Lawrence Richey, the Presidents
secretary. and Lieut.. Comdr. Joel T,
Boone, the Presidents physician, still
another. The party headed for the sea
with the intention of remaining late,
or at least until a creditable catch had
been accomplished.
Members of the party today were
sun talking about their experience OF
hshing last evening by moonlight. The
party was late getting to the FISHING
grounds and the time went fast, and
just about the time the President was
ready to give the signal to haul In
lines and head for shore Mrs. Stone
hooked her prize sailf1sh.
The sun was well down when this
battle began. The other fishing boats
drew near and all hands laid aside their
own rooS ana hung over the rail look
ing on with interest and frequently call
ing out words of cheer to Mrs. Stone
For two hours the fight ragged. Sew
erai times the quarry was hauled close
10 the side Of the boat only to race of
70 sea and resume the struggle. But
Mrs. Stone was Just as game, and she
fought on until she finally subdued
her quarry and he was brought aboard
IL mao been dark some time by Their
and the moon was shining brightly.
Delay Caused Uneasiness.
The fact that the party remained
out so long caused some little uneasi-
ness on the part of the people back al
Long Key. Although there was no evi.
dence Of storm, many were concerned
as to the safety of the President and
ms companions. He had always re-
turned before dark and it was feared
some accident had befallen the party.
