NEWLIQUORSHP PENALTY S RGED Mrs. Willebranct Wants Law for Small Craft Beyond Three-Mile Limit. Virtually every angle of prohibi- tion enforcement was delved into yes- terday by the Senate committee in- vestigating the Internal Revenue Bu- reau, getting the viewpaint of both the bureau and the Department of Justice on needed remedies, befora adjourning its sessions for a month. The committee, in again hearing Mrs. Mabel Walker Willebrandt, As- sistant Attorney General in charge ot prohibition enforcement work, was carried into some of the technicali- ties of law that are making life hard for the new Coast Guard rum patrol, and at the same time, she said, too easy for vessels that are seized for violations. Wants Transportation a Crime. Because small creft under the stip- ulated five-ton burden are exempt from the regulations applying to large vessels outside the three-mile limit, Mrs. Willebrandt said, “practi- cally nothing” can be done to them when they are caught with a liquor cargo outside that limit. To remove in tuking action n aught with liquor three-mile limit, in view of the Supreme Court deci- sion that they do not constitute ter- ritory, she urged that Congress make it a “crime for American vessels to transport liquor under the American flag” outside that limit With rum row 15 or 20 miles off the coast, the witness said, the only course open to the Coast Guard “is the American boats that out from the shore and get rgoes from the parent ships foreign reg * " If the Coast Guard waits until they get their cargoes, she added, “it cannot pos- pursue them into the three-mile cause their boats can't match f the rum runners.” tly,” she continued, “the ony some when limi but if ey get back to the thr That s like scattering shot; the Coast Guard could lie off rum rtow and catch our own boats when they get out there we would have an effective remedy.” Alone Forfeited. Mrs. Willebrandt aiso cited an old admiralty statute by 'which, under a “substitute hond” arrangement, she said, seized vessels are permitted to Eo their way and continue operaiions after putiing uwp a bond, which they “get down as low as possible.” When the case comes to trial the only thing involved, she said, Is the bond, and if the Government wins “that is tne only thing forfeited” She recom- mended that the condition be reme- died by amendment of the statuta. In the hearing yesterday of both Mrs. Willebrandt and James J. Britt, counsel for the bureau, the committee also went into the question of pro- cedure in efforts to shut off the large sources of bootleg liquor, of co-op- eration between prohibition unit rep- resentatives and district attorneys, and specifically the record in the Pennsylvania brewery cases and in connection with the Industrial permits of the Fleischmann Co., yeast manu- facturers. During the recess of the committee until May 1, when it will enter on the final phase of its investigation, to con< tinue until the limitation date of June 1, Chairman Couzens will complete a study of evidence In the Fieischmann case to determine whether there are indications of conspiracy to viola the law. If the evidence warrants, he plans to lay the whole case before the full committee for further in- quiry Bonds College Asociation Meets.
