Liberty St. Phone 7 PROH IBIT 1 0 N IK Attorney General Says It Is Illegal to Ship Liquor C. 0. D. The State District Attorneys' associ ation met at the offices of Attorney General Brown today to discuss the en forcement of the 1916 prohibition law. Since many of the district attorneys have never lived in a dry county it was considered that an open discussion of the, law would tend to put them all on the same basis as to the interpreta tion of the law. Walter H. Evans, district attorney of Multnomah coun ty is president of the association and George Neuner, district attorney of Douglas county is secretary. Attorney Oeneral Brown also took the opportunity to explain two de cisions which he handed down yester day relative . to the cashing of bank drafts in payment for a shipment of liquor where the bill of lading or order was attached and tho other was in reference to a merchant storing liquor in his basement. According to the at torney general it is no crime to store liquor in the basement but the fact that a large quantity is kept there is "prima facie'' evidence that it is kept for sale and the merchant may be caused considerable trouble in explain ing what he is keeping the liquor for and it appears that explanations may be demanded at aiiy time and as often as someone feels like it. Speaking of the statuto relative to bank drafts Attorney General Brown said in party. "I am of the opinion that it is a misdemeanor under the laws of this state, from and after January 1, 1915, for any bank, or individual firm, or as sociation to present and collect any draft, bill of exchange, or order for payment, of money, to which is at tached a bill of lading, or order, or re ceipt for intoxicating liquor. Such collection is mado a misde meanor whether such sale of intoxicat ing liquors is made in compliance with the provisions of section 12 or other-! wise. ' I Referring to this section and its pur pose, I will call your attention to the fact that for some years, when intoxi cating liquor was shipped from a wet state to a dry state, they were shipped C. O. D., and tho common carriers not only carried the liquor, but collected the purchaso price for the same. In order to prevent the railroad com panies, express companies and other common carriers that aro transporting intoxicating liquors from wet territory to dry territory, and indirectly aiding and abetting in the sale, congress en acted chapter 321, 35th statute 1130, which iorbids any cominan earner, to transport intoxicating liquors of any kind, from one state or territory into any other state, territory, or district from collecting tno pureoase price or any part thereof, before, on or after the delivery from the consignee. A fine of not more than $5,0(10 for a violation of the act is provided. For the purpose of avoiding the pro visions of this statute, intoxicating liquor was shipped by a common car rier, and draft for tho payment of the same, together with the way bill, was forwarded to some association or bank for the purpose of collection. In the district court of tho United States for the district of North Dakota the First National Bank of Anamoose, was convicted and fined on account of collecting the purchase price on a case of beer shipped from St. Paul. One Myers, a resident in Anamoose, N. D., ordered a ense of beer from a brewing company. Tho brewing com pany neeopteM the order and shipped tho beer to Myers nt Anamoose via the Sioux Railway company, and re ceived a bill of lading from that com pany under an agreement that the com pany would not deliver the beer to Myers until he presented the bill of lailing to its agent at Anamoose. The brewing company then uttneiicd a sight draft on Meyers for the purchase price of the beer, to the hill of lading, the bank agreeing with tho vender to col lect the draft from Myers, and to de liver the bill of lading to him so ns to enable him to receive the shipment of beer from the railroad company and thereby to complete the sale and deliv ery of tho beer. The case wns reviewed on appeal, upon the contention that the facts of the case did not bring the bank, or its act within auv of the classes of per sons or acts of this statute subject to fine for collecting the price of liquor. Circuit Judge Sanborn delivered the opinion of the court nnd reversed the holding of the lower court upon the grounds Hint a hank is not one of tire persons prohibited from collecting the draft mentioned in said section 239, I believe that section 14 preventing banks and assoeintions from collecting the state's prohibiting such traffic, has qnor was enacted for the same reason that the congress or tno united Mates passed said section 239. At the time the Congressional com mittee made a report of the congres sional net, it said: "The principal cause of difficul ty in restricting the liquor traffic in the state's phoribiting such traffic, has been the misuse of the facilities fur nished by railrond companies, express companies and other common carriers in bringing in liquors from outside states to be paid for on delivery. To meet thi- evil, your committeo report the substitute." For the same reason the legislatures of a number of the states have enacted statutes similar to section 14.
