hy i TUESDAY, MAY 1, 1923, ‘BONE DRY’ RULING ON fll PRET ems U. S. SHIPS UNCHANGED] ssleeont Supreme Court Ruling to Have No Effect on Liquor Question Aboard Shipping Board V essels; Readjustment of Policies Started by U.S. Departments WASHINGTON, May 1.—Definite indications were given by Chairman Lasker of the shipping board after a conference today with President Harding that government owned ships, would be kept “bone dry’ for some time at least, although under yesterday’s supreme court decision they legally could carry and serve liquor on the high seas. WASHINGTON, May 1.—Officials of the several government departments concerned today were giving close study to the situation resulting from the supreme court's decision on ship Iquor yes: terday with a view to permanent ad- justments of po'icy under the court’s interpretation of the prohibition laws as applying at sea. There was an ebv'ous purpose to preceed with care- ful regard for all questions involved and to avoid any possible complica- tons particularly in the app‘ication of that part of the decision in which the presence of LUquor on_ foreign ships as well as domestic, within three miles of the shores of the Unit- ed States was held unlawful. Both that phase of the decision and the court's declaration that American ships Can legally sell intoxicating liquors to passengers outside the three mile Lmit were expected to come up for discussion at today’s cabinet meeting. Attorney General Daugherty, whose opinion with re- gard to the right of American vessels to have liquor aboard on the high seas and in foreign ports was upheld in the decis'on of Federal Judge Hand in New York which the sup- reme court reversed in that particu- lar, was here to attend the cabinet Meeting for the first time in more than two months. It was thought Probable he wou'd have suggestions to make as to policy. As to vesséls of the shipping board, Chairman Lasker announced, after the decision, that for the present at least there would be no lifting of the ban against lquor, The treasury is preparing to begin at once to redraft its prohibition reg- ulations in accordance with the de- cision. Beyond saying that careful study would have to be given the mat- ter, Secretary Mellon declined to comment on the possibility of com- Plications arising from the decision where foreign laws compel ships of home registry to carry liquor as part of the ship's stores. The question whether the decision would require the inspection of every vesse! enter- ing an American port also remains to be decided, Secretary Mellon was said to regard this as physically im- possible, but to believe that a ma- Jority of tho larger lines at least would obey the law without the in- spection. Many “dry” leaders were predict- tng today that in ‘view of the power of congress, as pointed out in the supreme court's decision to forbid American ships to carry and serve Uquor outside the three mile limit, @n attempt would be made to secure legislation to this effect at the ear- Mest opportunity. SEATTLE SHIPS CAN PICK UP BOOZE. SEATTLE, Wash, May 1.—Seatt!e 8 the only port in the United States at which tramsoceanic ners can run and sell liquor under a ruling made yestertay by the United States su- preme court was the outlook seen by ome shipping men here today.

According to the story published by the Times-Star, the offer was made after the Cincinnati club had re- fused an offer of Leon Cadore, pitcher, for Walter Kimmick, in- fielder. August Herrmann, president of the Cincinnati club, said that he had not received such a proposition for Pinelli. ME.

Mr. Pelton said that in many instances the persons applying for permits did not state the full estimated cost of the build- ‘ng, thus defrauding the city of its full fee.

Filtherto associated with society characters of the most fornate de- scription such as she played in Ce- cil De Mille's “Old Wives for New,” Miss Manon proves her ‘versatility by playing a Russian peasant in the new picture. However, as might be ex- pected of so unusual a type, her Peasant fs by no means a tiller of the soll but-a sophisticate! woman who plainly is destined for pleasant. er living than that afforded by an humble home in Russia.
