r THE MOKXIXG OREGOXIAX, TUESDAY JANUARY 9, 1917. i" ! t t WEBB-KENYON LAW 15 DECLARED VALID Highest Court Also Sustains Prohibition Against Liquor for "Personal Use." POWER HELD COMPLETE as" a result of the Webb-Kenyon de cision-or-the united states Supreme Court, in the opinion of A. L. Veazie. of Portland, who has been active in the campaign for dry legislation. Mr. Veazie last night reviewed the history of the litigation, in which the state of Oregon filed a brief, and added: From the press report. I Judge that the West Virginia law has been up- eld, which means that both the con- titutionality of the Webb-Kenyon act and that of the West Virginia statute are sustained. If this is the tenor of the decision. It overthrows 'Judge Morow's holding in the Wadhams case and clarifies the ituation here respecting: our present law and the additional legislation to put the 'bone-dry law into effect, as It shows Just what is necessary to be done in order to make a valid com- liance with the Webb-Kenyon act. It points out the way for Oregon to stop hipments of intoxicating liauors into the state from other states." Congress . Has Full Authority to Prevent Paralyzing of State. Au thority Interstate Com merce Is Not Tool. TURNBULL IS SELECTED SEATTLE NEWSPAPER MAX CHOSES FOR IXIVERSITY POST. WASHINGTON. Jan. 8. The Webb Kenyon law, designed to prevent liquor shipments from "wet" to "dry" states, was today declared constitu tional by the Supreme Court by a vote of 7 to 2. The court also upheld West Virginia's prohibition amendment pro hibiting citizens from receiving liquor for personal use, shipped by common carriers in Interstate commerce. It was announced that Justice Mc Reynolds concurred in the decision, but not completely In the opinion. Justice Holmes and Vandeventer were the two dissenting Justices. "The all-reaching power of govern ment over liquor is settled," said the Chief Justice in announcing his de cision. "There was no intention of Congress to forbid individual use of liquor. The purpose of this act was to cut out by the roots the practice of permitting violation of state liquor laws. We can have no doubt that Con gress has complete authority to pre vent paralyzing of state authority. Congress exerted a power to co-ordinate the National with the state au thority." Possession of Liquor Forbidden. In an official abstract of the court's decision it was stated that the court holds: First That the West Virginia law. beside prohibiting the manufacture and sale of all intoxicants except as to that which is permitted for medical, sacra mental and manufacturing purposes, also forbids all transportation of liquor and all receipt and possession of liquor transported in the state, whether originating in or outside of the state, and although it does not prohibit per sonal use, puts serious restrictions upon the power to obtain for such use. The court holds that in view of the well-established police authority of the state over intoxicants there is no rea son to think that this law was in any wise repugnant to the due process clause of the 14th amendment to the Constitution of the United Staes. It. however, decides that unless the state authority has an exceptional applica tion to shipments of interstate com merce as the result of the act of Con gress known as the Webb-Kenyon law, the provisions of the state law restrict ing shipments of intoxicants into the state from other states would be Tin constitutional because interfering with the power of Congress to regulate com merce among the states and conse quently would be a direct burden upon such commerce. State Law Xot in Conflict. '"" Second' Considering the- Webb-Ken yon act the court holds that there is no foundation for the contention that the act applies only to shipments from one state into another lor .a use pro hibited by the state to which the liquor is shipped. On the contrary, it is de elded that the Webb-Kenyon act. to use the words of the act. applies to shipments of liquor "intended to be received, possessed, sold or in any man ner used" in violation of the laws of the state. . As this conclusion causes every pro hibition of the West Virginia law to be embraced and come under the right conferred by Congress by the Webb Kenyon act, it is decided that the West Virginia law was not in conflict with the commerce clause of the Constitu tion and the power of Congress to regu- late commerce if Congress had power to enact the Webb-Kenyon law. Third Disposing of that question, it Is decided that Congress had the power under the Constitution to adopt the Webb-Kenyon law, whether considered from the point of view of original rea soning or in the light of the previous legislation by Congress and the de cisions of the court holding that legis lation valid. It is therefore decided that by virtue of the Webb-Kenyon law there is no power to ship intoxicants from one state into another in violation of the prohibitions of the law of the state into which the liquor is shipped. -In other words, it is decided that since the enactment of the Webb-Kenyon law the channels of interstate com merce may not be used to convey liquor Into a state against the prom bitions of Its laws or to use interstate .commerce as the basis for a right to receive, possess, sell or in any manner - use liquor contrary to the state pro hlbition.

Professor Turnbull has experience acquired by more than IS years' con nection with both city and country newspapers. Most of his early educa tion was obtained in country print shops.

BLACK HAND" IS DEFIED ATTORNEY FERRERA CREATES SENSATION 17 ITALIAN TRIAL. Carlo Tlta Is Fined 50 for Practicing Medicine Without License on John Fata. Carlo Tita, an Italian, was fined $50 by District Judge Jones yesterday for the practice of medicine without a li cense. This followed the arguments of Deputy District Attorney Mowrey and Attorney Albert B. Ferrera on evidence submitted to the court in a four-day trial which begn December 7. . A dramatic sensation was produced in court when Attorney Ferrera gave open defiance of the "black hand." He had introduced "black-hand" notes re ceived by his client, charging that the complaining witness was instrumental in ' sending them, which contention, however, was not sustained by evidence. "I serve notice on all Italians In the courtroom." declared Mr. Ferrera in his peroration, turning to the large number of spectators, "that I am out to fight the black hand. I realize it may cost me my life, but the cowards who write these threatening notes need expect no consideration from me." Tita was charged with treating John Fata for a disease which Fata did not have, and of charging the exorbitant sum of $105 for his services. This des pite the fact that Tita had no license to practice medicine. Fata said that Tita not only took all the money he could give him. but that he said he was doing him a great service for little remuneration and persuaded Fata to chop his fuel wood as further pay ment. The fine imposed by Judge Bell was less than half the amount Fata said was taken from him. Police Lieutenant, Saloonkeeper and Politician and Alleged Die-' tator of Tenderloin Said to Have Snared Tribute. CHICAGO. Jan. 8. A warrant charg ing Charles C. Healey, superintendent of police, with conspiracy was sworn out today on request of a representa tive of Maclay Hoyne, State's Attorney. Mr. Hoyne alleges that Chief Healey waa one of several men who accepted a share of contributions levied on ille gal resorts. Others of the alleged ring were arrested as follows: Thomas Costello. alleged collector of the trib ute; "Mike De Pike" Heitler, former alleged head of the old West Side ten derloin district: Lieutenant Martin White, of the Lake-street police sta tion, and William Skidmore. a saloon keeper and . politician. The arrests took place in Costello's office. Mr. Hoyne said that collections usu ally were made on Mondays; that ap proximately $1000 was on hand for division in Costello's office when the raid by Hoyne's detectives was made, and that Superintendent Healey's share was usually delivered to him at his home. Alleged Collector Trailed. The State's Attorney added that on several occasions Costello had been trailed to the chief's home. Mr. . Hoyne today informed news papermen that they might look for sensational developments tonight. He issued a signed statement in which he asserted that corruption ran riot in the city hall. Meanwhile Mr. Hoyne ordered his as sistants to return to the criminal court building at 8 o'clock tonight. It was two hours later, however, before he explained the mysterious scurrying to and fro of his detectives by giving out news of the arrests. Mr. Hoyne said that he had lost hope that the city administration, headed by Mayor Thompson, would check the "carnival of crime" in this city. "Last Fall," he said, "I promised that I would clean up Chicago.- I was re elected, fend now I am going to make that promise good." Healey Gives $100,000 Bond. The warrant for Healey, which charges extortion and bribery as well as conspiracy, was served on him at his home. He appeared immediately be fore Judge Fry in the Municipal Court and gave bonds of $100,000 as request ed by an assistant state's attorney. Healey's resignation as chief was pre sented to the Mayor last month, effect ive January 1. but the date was ex tended to January 11. so that he might continue in onice over iew rear s eve, when many violations of the saloon closilig law were expected. . , In a later statement Mr. Hoyne said that "a great majority- of the police- captains and lieutenants are involved in this scandal. He added that he and Mr. Singleton had traced money by the serial numbers from vice resorts to persons whom he said ho had caught in his net. Money Recovered In Raid. Mr. Hoyne said that some of the money was in the lot being distributed when the raid was made on Costello's office. He said also warrants had been issuedv but not served up to mid night, for Lieutenant Edward Brady and John Hartford, and for Sergeant John Naughton, confidential secretary to the chief. He said that money was extorted not only from vicious resorts, but from policemen for promotions and from saloonkeepers to keep their places open On Sundays. . The raid, Mr. Hoyne continued, would have been made several days ago, but the delivery of the chief's alleged share was delayed. Costello was the go between in most of the transactions, Hoyne said.

Principal tons in Wallboard Depart ment, Where Delicate Machin ery Was Exposed. Flfteem, minutes of fire, which scourged the upper floor of the wall board factory of the Central Door & Lumber Company, at North Thirtieth and Northrup streets, yesterday caused damage which is estimated by the pres ident. A. F. Biles, to be between $15,000 and $18,000. The blaze was caused by the over heating of an asphalt mastio tank on the second floor. As the tank burst into flame, the foreman. Robert McClemens, who was alone on that floor, barely had time to escape. He suffered slight burns. The alarm was turned in at 4:20, and the fire was quelled within quarter of an hour. Three firemen were painfully burned about the face and arms when a smaller tank of the asphalt mastic preparation tipped over, - spattering them. They are Lieutenant' Miller, of engine 26; Charles E. Dyer, of engine 17, and Charles Habiland, of truck 3. Their in juries are not serious. Most 'of the machinery used in the manufacture of wallboard, of delicate construction and great value, was on the second floor. It is the damage to this equipment that Mr. Biles counts his most serious loss. The fluid asphalt, flaming fiercely. swept through the upper floor, destroy ing a quantity of stock.
