SPECULATION
IS
VOLSTEAD ACT
If the Volstead act applies to the
Territory of Alaska, in the decision
of the supreme court upholding the
constitutionality of the prohibition
amendment, which, according to tele
graphic advices, state that the Vol
stead act shall be enforced in every
state in the union, regardless of
whether the state has ratified the
amendment, the case of Arthur Abatte
will probably be reversed and tried
over again.
Abatte was convicted in the district
court on April 8 under the Alaska
bone dry law, although the crime was
committed after the Volstead act went
into effect. Judge Robert W. Jen
nings, in rendering his decision in
the case, held that this could be done
and that in respect to this case the
Volstead act did .not apply.
An appeal from the decision of the
district court has been filed with the
circuit court of appeals by Judge John
R. Winn, attorney for Agatte, on the
ground that the Alaska bone dry law
is superceded by the Volstead act.
Attorneys naturally are very much
interested in knowing just how far the
Volstead law may apply in Alaska or
whether it will really supercede the
“bone dry” law.
Until an opinoin is received from
the attorney general, or the full deci
sion of the United States supreme
■ court is received here, the question
will remain a point for speculative dis
cussion.—Juneau Capital.

sul general here. Palacios said he be
