May 26 (AP) Bloody rioting in Rangoon, Bom bay and Dacca today brought British authorities in India face to face -with a serious situation in these three big cities of Burma and the Indian peninsula. The rioting at Rangoon was the most serious of the day. It had no direct connection with the eiv il disobedience campaign of the nationalists. It broke between different bands of coolies, when laborers were imported to replace striking Burmese dock workers. The last reports gave 26 dead and nearly 700 injured. Ail bazaars were closed and cavalcades of mounted police clat tered through the streets in large patrols. Detachments of the Cameron higblaaders and Punjab regiment were on the alert and ready to intervene if necessary. Strong Force Needed To End Disorders The rioters were brought under control by a rigorous display of force late in the day, but none of the officials could guarantee how Ions the relative calm would last. In Dacca, an important city of Bengal, 150 miles northeast of Calcutta, Hindus and Moslems fiercely fought each other during the day. Six deaths were report ed and many injuries. Scores of arrests were made. The situation was so serious to night that the chairman of the district board telegraphed the viceroy of India, Lord Irwin, for adequate police help "in order that the people may feel they are still living under the British gov ernment." Communication System Is Almost Cat Off Communication with Dacca was extremely difficult and has. been so for the past few days, bat ev erything indicates that4-' feeling among Hindus and Mohammedans is very tense. Bombay did not escape unscath ed. Two persons were killed and 19 injured;- Including a Moham medan woman, during suppres sion of a riot in the heart of the Moslem quarter. A mob of fire thousand Moslems stoned Euro pean policemen. The police were compelled to fire several volleys, first over the heads and then into the mass of the rioters. They were forced to fire in self defense. The disorders, which were cen tered in the Bhendi bazaar, were caused by a Mohammedan hooli gan throwing stones at a dog be longing to an European police sergeant. When the sergeant started to pursue him a group of Moslems began throwing stones. A riotous mob of 5,000 rapid ly gathered. They marched on the police quarters and stoned the buildings and the police who fin ally responded by revolver fire. Salt raiding continued. At Wa- dala 200 were injured and sev eral hundred nationalists arrest ed in a raid on the government salt, pans under 83 prominent leaders. The natives stormed the wire enclosure and 30 returned with baskets of salt.

(AP) The buyer of bootleg li quor was held by the supreme court today, not liable to prosecu tion as a violator of the prohibi tion laws if the question of il legal transportation ' and posses sion be not Involved. The court declined, however, in another ease, to, declare whether purchasers who know Ulegal transportation will be Involved are guilty of conspiracy to violate the prohibition law. It found that the ease in which the government had sought to raise that issue had been foreclosed by the plea, equiv alent to one of guilty, which had been entered when the accused was arraigned. Continued Operation Allowed Mannfactarers In a third case, the court held manufacturers using liquor and alcohol In the preparation of a non-beverage product were en titled to operate until their per mits were cancelled for violation and could not be compelled an nually to renew their permits. The cases decided on their mer its were defeats for the govern ment and all three decisions were without dissent. James E. Farrar of Boston was indicted for purchasing liquor from a bootlegger, j The federal district court for Massachusetts quashed the Indictment, taking the position that the prohibition law did not, as the government had contended, make the pur chaser equally guilty with the seller. S Government's Claim Not Held Valid The government : appealed di rectly to the supreme court, which in an opinion by Justice Suther land, declared the contention that any purchase without a permit i-UlegaouId not De sustained. The court pointed 'out that the permit related to that class of persons who are authorized to deal with intoxicating liquors for non-beverage purposes. Purchas ers from bootleggers, it added, could not under any circumstanc es obtain a permit to make such purchases. Justice Sutherland slated that "since long before the adoption of the 18th (prohibition) amend ment, it has been held with prac tical unanimity that, in the ab sence of an express statutory pro vision to the contrary, the pur chaser of intoxicating liquor, the sale of which was prohibited, was guilty of no offense."

President Chiang Kalshek, personally com manding the government forces in Honan province which since May 8 have been attempting to turn back the northern alliance rebel armies, was informed by Finance Minister Soong that Immediate victory was imperative to prevent grave detrimental developments within the government. Backing his . appeal for the quick defeat of the rebels who have fought a series of battles with Chiang's troops, the minis ter's telegram stated that com munistic and bandit depredations throughout China, failure of crops ana aemoraiizea business were combining to present the gravest menace - the nationalist govern ment had encountered in its brief and turbulent existence. Federal Treasury Now Nearly Empty The government's depleted treasury has been subjected to an almost continuous levy to meet a succession of revolts, to wrestle with banditry that has scourged several provinces, and with loot ing and massacre. Fields unplant ed by farmers turned bandits or soldiers are unproductive, the country's buying power has faded due to the drop in price of silver and business failures are numer ous.

This Information was brought out at the informal meeting or the city council Monday night, through the reading of a letw-r from E. C. Elliott, president of the company, which Indicate that the proposed suit would b of a "friendly" nature designed to clarify the situation with re spect to the impending purchase, Coancilnten Agree That Lawsuit Is Advisable It was generally agreed by th aldermen present that the test el the amendment's legality wo!d be advisable, and that the mi ft would be welcomed by the coun cil. However, it was also decidetl that the council should proceed with the program laid down by the amendment, looking toward purchase of the system from t):e Oregon-Washington company. Mr. Elliott's letter contained assurances that the company, in view of the decisive vote by which municipal ownership was endors ed, would not attempt to block the program, but that it the char ter amendment should prove in valid, the company would ito ceed with construction of the fil tration plant and other impro ments, anticipating that the coun cil would then submit, at the No vember election, a- new amend ment incorporating a bond isu which would permit purchase at the amount of the company's in vestment. The company would agree to do nothing in the wy t.f opposing this suggested measure. Attorneys Declare Amendment Faulty He also mentioned that lawyers who have examined the charter amendment consider it faulty. Questioned on this point. City Attorney Trindle said he was not prepared to venture an opinion. He said there might be flaws in the amendment but pointed out that the Oregon supreme court has always been disposed to up hold measures voted by the peo ple when at all possible. There is enough doubt to warrant a tet suit, he declared. The company's investment here is already greater than the Sl.- 200,000 authorized in the hond issue. Mr. Elliott's letter stated. While agreeing that a test suit would improve the city's position with respect to sale of the bords. several aldermen voiced objection to the proposal that the city should agree to purchase at the company's figure on its invest ment. Alderman Dancy, however, said the interpreted the letter to mean only that the city should purchase the improvements now under construction in that manner. Mayor Livesley, alter declaring that he would use his best ef forts to bring about the purchase, pointed out numerous difficulties which he saw in the way of on'ag- ing about municipal ownership. He declared the f 1,200, 000 would not be sufficient, and also voiced apprehension lest the Totem would demand water from a mountain source before long.
