Smelling Illicit Mash
Court Decision May Be Quite Important Here

The United States Circuit Court Of Appeals at st. Louis has
Just rendered decision that may open the Federal prohb
ion force to operatives with smelling organs and may
change the ruling of local courts to search warrants for
apeakeases under conditions.
Under this ruling, which will almost surely 60 to the United
States Supreme Court prohibition agents have the right to
search private homes WITHOUT WARRANTS when they
have information the law being violated and when the
agents are able to SMELL THE ODORS of mash.
Our local have consistently ruled that home or
other place may be searched without warrant and
have been thrown out where this legal process was not
followed This ruling will likely be followed until the United
States Supreme Court has decided otherwise.

The Need Of Putting
Our House in Order

And we are not going to put
our house in order by acting on
the theory Of reactionaries that
we must lower the living stand
arcs of the masses, through
the reduction of wages; nor by
finding ways to cut down pro-
duction to the consumption re-
quirementS of those who can
get all they need, leaving mil
lions who cannot afford to buy
what health and decent COM
fort requires out Of considera-
ton; nor by taking the lofty
position that the Federal Gov
ernment is not directly con-
cerned when millions are job
less and millions are hungry;
nor by refusing to face realities
in the industrial world and
making fundamental reforms

begin. We seem to remember
that it was a mutiny in the
Russian fleet that marked the
beginning of the end in Russia.
The statesmen will now sit
down to a consideration of the
complaints of the sea dogs, and
probably will find that they
have a proper grievance.
1t was bad enough to find
the Old Lady Of Threadneedle
Street in distress; it is quite as
ominouS to find the spirit of
mutiny in the British navy.
Wipe out the Bank of England
and the English navy and it
will be time for an epitaph.
The Conditions as They
Were in Pepys' Time
Long ago these outcroppings
of discomfort in the English
navy were not unusual, but that

The most sinister and star.
tling news that has come out
of England is the announce
ment, officially made, that,
owing to unrest among the sea-
men, it has been thought best
to abandon the usual fleet ma
neuvers in the North Sea.
This frankly is aScribed to
the bitterness and unrest among
the seamen because of the pro-
posed reduction IN their poor
pay. Men from the battleShips
and cruisers INDUCED in fierce
denunciations of the govern
ment's plan to reduce their pay
at a mass meeting in a field
on land.
Ordered back to the ships,
they ignored the orders until
they were ready. Returning to
the ships, they danced on deck
and shouted their discomfort.
There was some singing OF reVo-
lutionary songs.

Resentment May Not
Be Confined to Seamen
This bitter resentment Of
conditions may not be confined
to the Seamen or the army.
We shall not know just what
the reaction of the people is
to increasing the cost of hv-

wages until the present Min

election, possibly in November.
Snug gentlemen, smoking
their cigars in the Carlton Club

there is a mutiny of the

America is in a healthy condi-
