Health Officials Study
Magistrate's S Ruling
On Hog Pen Control
Appeal Is Considered
On Decision Measure
Is Unconstitutional

Prince Georges County Health De-
partment officials today were study
ing decision by Trial Magistrate
Walter L. Green in Upper Marlboro
Police Court yesterday in which he
declared unconstitutional law pro-
hlbiting establishment of hog feed
ing pens less than 1000 feet from a
public road in the county.
DR.. John M. Byers. county health
officer, said he planned to consult
with States Attorney A. GWynn
Bowie to determine whether to ap-
peal the ruling.
The decision was handed down
after Robert w Mccullough. attor-
ney for Herman H. Stickel, Camp
Springs, and John r. Cleveland,
Allentown, who were charged with
violating the law, contended that
the measure was unconstitutional.
The law was passed at the last ses-
sion of the State Legislature.
Mr.. Mccullough also maintained
that the location of the hog feeding
pens in question did not constitute
a health menace He added that If
Mr.. Stickel and Mr. Cleveland were
found guilty, it would "penalize"
them in their attempts to aid the
war effort by raising more hogs.
In acquitting the two men. Judge
Green said the law violates the
fourteenth amendment to the Con-
stitution, as we'll as the Maryland
Declarat ton of Rights.
He pointed out that II the law is
enforced, both Mr. Stickel and Mr..
Cleveland would be forced out of
business. This. he said. would vio-
late the fourteenth amendment
which provides that mo State shall
pass any law abridging the privileges
|of any citizen of the United States
Ior denying to any person the equal
protection of the law" t.
In addition, Judge Green ruled
that the law is Retrospective" in
that it Furnishes some one for acts
committed before its passage, thus
violating the Maryland Bill of
Rights.
The jurist also agreed with Mr.
Mccullough that no evidence was
offered by the health department
to show that the location of the
hog feeding pens is a menace
to health.

Allied Liquor Industries deplores
the black market, bootlegging, moon
shining and other evils that appar-
entity have grown out of the verv
real liquor shortage. This shortage
has its origin in the fact that on
october 8, 1912, the industry's entire

to the production of alcohol for war
purposes and to the fact that prior
to that date conversion on a volun-
