SEATTLE, Wash., May 20. (Spe
Thousands of dollars' worth
of liquor will be stored in Seattl
homes during the next 40 days, ac
cording to the prediction today of
Prohibition Inspector Moore, in
charge pf the Seattle office.
This was Mr. Moore's comment on
the conditions that will be brought
about by the 40-day furlough ordered
for all but two of the prohibition en
forcement agents in the state, which
begins at 5 P. M. today.
"Undoubtedly there will be a great
flood of liquor into Seattle and the
state as a result of the laying off of
the agents," Moore said, "but the
price will not drop. Liquor runners
will accumulate great stores of whis
ky and wines In private dwellings,
against the time the enforcement
agents are put back on the Job."
Moore has pointed out that the liq
uor is practically immune from seiz
ure in dwellings, because by ruling
of the courts a federal search war
rant cannot be obtained unless evl
dence of. sale of the liquor is pre
sented.
There will be no wild orgy of
drinking here. Mr. Moore declared
because of the efficiency of local po
lice and deputy sheriffs. Chief of
Police Searing offered today to de
tail as many of his men as were need
ed to take over the local work 'of the
federal prohibition officers during
their enforced layoff.
Sheriff Matt Starwich declared that
while he can spare no deputies for
the special work, his force will be on
the alert for liauor runners.
The customs and the coast guard
service will operate in their custom
ary manner, having no men available
for increased activity against booze
smugglers.
CALIFORNIA WETS ARE BUSY
Judge Finds Liquor and Xarcotic
Cases Xumerous.
SEATTLE, Wash., May 20. (Spe
cial.) Prohibition is more or less
unknown in California if a number
of bootlegging cases that clutter the
courts there are an Indication, said
Federal' Judge Neterer. who returned
to Seattle late last night after sitting
on the bench in San Francisco for the
last three weeks. Judge Neterer dis
posed of more than 200 liquor and
narcotic cases during his stay in San
Francisco
Jurors, who admitted that they had
well stocked cellars, were prone at
firs tto acquit whenever possible, he
said, but later turned about and be
gan to return, convictions. Judge
Neterer ordered two -men to be in
vestigated by the federal grand Jury
on charges of perjury after they had
testified In "his court on their own
behalf, he said. This had the effect
of wholesale pleas of guilty by boot
leggers throughout the state after
ward, he says. -
"Bootlegging and dealing In nar
cotics is particularly bad in Califor
nia, or . it was. when I first went
there," he said. - "The situation is
being bettered, however, as the well
thinking people are beginning . to de
cide that the laws should be enforced.
One great handicap is that- the stateH
was a wef state before national pro
hibition. State and public officials in
many cases do not believe it is their
duty to enforce the national law. A
police commissioner brought charges
agains ta policeman in San Francisco
for attempting to enforce the dry law,
considering that the policeman's sole
duty was to attend to the city and
local laws. Counter charges were
brought against the commission, I
understand." i . .
