Eastern, which is the public high

first-rate chance to successfully defend
its title. Though the Lincoln Parkers

land during the campaign just closed,
winning the title in both the Prince

Though the Hawks won In both
leagues, clinching the titles in each sew

as the result Of the sharp struggles for
other leading positions.
It was the second season for the

STATE FOR LEAGUE,

Neutral Territory as Seat oil

PARIS, May l5.-The question of re-
moving the League Of Nations from
Geneva to an especially created indie
pendent territory much like the Vatican
| City state has been raised by Matin
French daily, and is arousing consider
able discussion.
The proposition is linked here with
the idea of the proposed European con-
federation which would also be placed
in the same territory. The suggestion
apparently has been prompted by diff
culties the League has met at Geneva
but may also be intended to encourage
European union by preparing tangible
site for it.
Long delay of the League of Nations
in commencing erection of palace OF
nations, the corner stone OF which was
laid last year, generally is attributed to
necessity of draining the site, but the
suggestion has been heard that 1t has
not been hurried because the League
leaders were anxious to eliminate GER
tain obstacles, such as Switzerlands OBJ
lection to the Leagues absolutely indie
pendent wireless station. or the League S
military activities in any future war.
AS the Leagues need Of an independ-
ent wireless station would become real
only during war. 1t is proposed by Matin
to create a neutral state, solving all
problems. The paper claims that this
would be possible by creating an indie
pendent territory on the Swiss border.

LIQUOR DECISIONS
ARE EXPECTED SOON
Supreme Court Ruling on
Rum Buyers Status
Is Awaited.
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
Important prohibition decisions by
the Supreme Court are expected before
1t ends It's present term on June D.
These may define the lagal status of
purchasers of bootleg liquor, decide
whether the Government can require
manufacturers withdrawing liquor and
alcohol for use in their business to re-
new their permits annually. and
whether automobiles can be conflscated
without giving lien holders an oppor-
tunity to recover them when seized for
illegal transportation.
Attorney General Mitchell. in an
ton enforcement to the Department
Of Justice, is co-ordinating to clarity
controversial questions, and to obtain
from the highest court its interpreta-
ton of disputed phases of the prohi-
bition law.
Buyers Guilt Is Issue.
The question of the guilt of the pur-
chaser of Illicit liquor is before the
court In two cases. One comes from
Boston, brought against James E. Far
rar, in which the Government con-
tended that the purchaser is equally
guilty with the bootlegger. The other
is from Philadelphia. where the Gov
eminent insisted that Alfred E. Norris.
New York banker. was guilty of con-
Spiracy to violate the prohibition law
when he ordered liquor from.a Phila-
delphia bootlegger, knowing that illegal
transportation would be involved in its
delivery.
Manufacturers aud others withdraw
ing liquor and alcohol under permits

of the Government to require them to

the position that the law required only
those engaged in the manufacture of
liquor, and not those using 1t In their

As approximately $2.QOO,0O0.0 900 is
invested annually by financing COM

of automobiles on deferred installments.
those holding this enormous amount in
liens are anxious to know whether the
Government when it seizes automobiles
on the charge of illegal transportation
can at its pleasure confiscate them
under the internal revenue laws, or
under the prohibition law.
In the former case the lien holders
