'CONSTRUING OF RUM | SHIP PACT UNLIKELY Unnecessary, Attorney for Gov- ernment Says, in Hearing of Quadra Case. By the Associated Press. Developménts in the Supreme Court yesterday during oral argument in the Quadra case from California indicated the cour? might dispose of the question of the legality of the | prosecution of officers and crew of the | British rum runner without constru- ling the 1924 treaty with Great | Britain under which the ship was seized. This treaty gave the United States the right to board British ves- sels within one hour’s sailing distance of our coast. Solicitor General Mitchell, in pre- senting the case for the Government, insisted construction of the treaty, for which counsel for George Ford and others convicted in the case con- ! tended, was not necessary. Mitchell said the British vessel Quadra was be- ing operated out of Vancouver as one of a fleet engaged in selling liquor off the California Coast and that there could be no doubt of the authority for prosecution by the Federal Gov- ernment of all those engaged in the enterprise. Counsel for the petitioners argued that the case required a construction of the British treaty, holding the ecment authorized this country to take into American courts only the question as to whether the vessel siould be confiscated, and gave no right to proceed against the crew. Under questloning, counsel for the Quadra contended the crew and cargo of the vessel must be released. He also asserted the Quadra was out- side the jurisdiction of the United States. < —_— Apples grown in Canada this year would fil! nearly 3,000,000 barrels. ‘ “THE PENNSTLVANIA AVENUB AT SEVENTE CRITERTION "~ CUSTOM QUALITY I.\' modeling and mak- ing, in fabric and and finish, we invite unsparing comparison of the distinguished “Criterion” with the at §60 to SILK LINED 350 Third Tloor finish at a lower cost— and lustrous Barreled Sunlight is washable N sheer beauty on walls and wood- work, Barreled Sunlight can only be compared to the finest enamel. costs less—and one of ordinary enamel in covering power.
