'j HIS STAND ON PROHIBITION
_
; For the iiraL time since he be
* came a democratic presidential pos
| sibility, Governor wl Smith, las
| week, heralded his stanu on tin
* prohibition question at tiie annua
’ convention dinnei oi the League ol
* Women Voters, New i ork. This wa;
, in answer to a resolution adoptee
! by the Nassau v ounty branch oi tut
, league condemning organized opposi
tion to the Volstead act. Governoi
Smith said that he stood for the en
l’orcement of all laws, but he sees
no reason why any group of votei>
should nm oppose the federal pro
hibition statutes. He wanted Lu
know what was wrong with that,
and if tie re were any reasons why
oppositioi should not organize.
THIS FELLOW, HOWARD, TALKS
THROUGH HIS HAT
From Stroller s vYeekly, Juueai .
we take the following \t variou
tlines this week report lias been cir
ciliated to the effect that a purse
containing $1,000 had been found
on Willoughby Avenue by an Indian
and turned over to the Salvation
Army officers. Inquiry concerning
the matter resulted in disclosing that
the circulator of the report, a Peters
burg Indian by he name of Howaro.
lias permitted his imaginaion to rut.
amuck; that no money has been turn
ed over to the officers of the Salva
tion Army; that no money has been
found and that the whole story was
lacking a foundation other than in
the distorted mind of the Indian.
DOESN'T NEED WARRANT
It you are selling liquor, and an
officer sees you selling it, he doesn’1
require a search warrant to enter
premises and make arrest and search
the building for evidence to sub
^tantiate his, case. The Supreme
Court holds that no warrant is
needed to seize tilings in violating
law if the officer sees the crime.
