Mich., Jan. 7.—(?)—The habitual criminal section of the state) ; criminal code was upheld by the state | supreme court today when it affirmed | the conviction of Fred Palm, Lansing bootlegger. | The code makes a life sentence; mandatory upon conviction of four| felonies. Palm, who had previously been con- vieted of three other felonies, was con- victed in the Ingham county circuit court for possession of a pint of gin and was sentenced to life imprison- ment. He appealed on the ground that the mandatory provisions of the code were unconstitutional in that they are retroactive and deprived the courts of discretion. “Experience teaches that the fear of severe punishment is more likely to rid the state of professional crim- inals than any effort looking to their reformation,” the court decreed. Driver Breaks Legs in Unloading Mishap Earl Owen is in a local hospital, with both legs broken, as the result of an accident at the Winston-Neweil wholesale house, Friday evening.

The situation along the border will quests that Canada refuse clearance having on board liquor or any com~ modity which is prohibited entry un- der Unted States regulations. Any proposal of this nature will probably bring forth strong opposi- tion. It is genevally accepted that action along those lines would require an amendment to the Canada-United States anti-smuggling treaty of 1924; and the Dominion parliament would not likely agree to such an amend- ment without prolonged debate. Again, there are those who feel that acquiesence on the part of the Do- minion to a request of this character would produce a serious detriment to Canada’s export trade. Furthermroe, the legal question arises as to the right of the Dominion government to prohibit export. It is intimated that a request may be made to Canada for a provision in the anti-smuggling treaty for the ex- tradition to the United States and Canada of persons guilty of offenses against the customs laws of either country. The feeling in certain cir- cles is that such a step might meet with public disapproval as being too drastic. Canada will likely have counter- requests to make at the conference. Silks, cigarettes and a variety of other American commodities have been surreptitiously finding their way to this country without payment The amounts of these smuggled goods are somewhat large. despite the watchful eye of Canadian custom of- ficials and recent enactment by par- liament of heavy penalties for ‘such offenders.

JURY INDIGTS 3 WITCH SUSPECTS Three Pennsylvania Men Are} Charged With Beating Aged Farmer to Death York, Pa. Aan. 7.—(#)—True bills | against all three of the principals in| York county's witchcraft case were returned by the grand jury today. The jury heard only two witnesses Coroner L. U. Zach and Dr. R. L Ellis, coroner's physician. Two counts were included in each indictment.! murder and manslaughter. Immediately after the indictment | | all three defendants, John H. Blymer. Wilbert G.

The subject, a live one in the recent campaign, was brought to the front by the Ways and Means committee of the house, while members were ‘called together today to open hear- ings on tariff revision. The work begins coincidentally with the settling down for a brief stay in his Washing- ton home of President-elect Hoover, whose administration will see the tedious job completed. When this will be accomplished is an interesting question because of the uncertainty of a special session, the responsibillity for which rests upon the shoulders of the incoming presi- dent. Republican leaders are divided on the advisability of an cxtra session, some wanting farm relief now to avoid one, while others favor its post- ponement until an early spring meet- ing. Meanwhile, the stupenduous task of, readjusting the 1922 Fordney-McCum- ber tariff act will go forward in com- mittee. Representative Hawley, Ore- gon, who succeeded to the chairman- ship of the Ways and Means commit- tee when Representative Green of more than 60 witnesses waiting to be heard on the first schedule. y This embraces chemicals, oils and paints. Three days will be devoted to this section and the remaining 14 will be taken up in the order in which they appear in the existing law. The schedule relating to agricul- tural products, which Mr. Hoover de- |clared in his campaign probably would need some attention in con- nection with the tariff, will not be reached until January 24. Chairman Hawley hopes to con- clude the hearings by March 4, and’ to have a new bill ready by the middle of April. If a special session were called then, he believes the bill could be passed by congress by mid-sum- mer. Chairman Hawley has expressed the opinion that the hearings will show that only a very small propor- tion of the more than 10,000 items in the law need readjustment.
