Woodcock, United States dis- trict attorney, has announced he would lay the poisonous liquor situation in Baltimore before the Federal grand jury Mr. Woodcock said the Government would be unable to prosecute venders of such liquor except as sellers of ordinary liguor under the Volstead act. He indicated, however, that “such violators would be turned over to the State to help any prosecution which will stamp out this practice. , “But the Federal Government and the local Federal officials find them. selves in the position of being unable to finally prosecute in these cases ex- cept for the sale of any fluid purport- ing to be a beverage. The bootlegger who sold the alcohol that caused the deaths this week is not amenable to the: Federal law,” he said. ANNEXATION TRIAL - T0 BEGIN THURSDAY, DESPITE OPPOSITION “(Continued_from First Page) was absolutely without prejudice in the matter. He overruled the motion. Barbour again moved that the trial be suspended while an appeal is made to the Court of Appeals for a writ of prohibition, but this motion also was overruled in short order. The challenge against Judge Brent referred to the fact that his daughter resides in the portion of Arlington County which Alexandria is seekin to annex, but the judge said he coul Dot ses.why this should disqualify m. Barbour next moved that the pro- ceedings be quashed on the ground that the notice to the'board of super- visors had not been served to it as a body in accordance with law, but to individual members of the board, and on the further ground that the city council of Alexandria was not qualified to file the sult on behalf of the city. Part of Motion Withdrawn. Defense -counsel later withdrew that portion of the motion regarding the right of the city council to file the action after it was shown to them that the legal name of the city is not Alexandria, but “The City Council of Alexandria.” The court threw out the remainder of the motion of its own accord. Finally, all other legal moves hav- ing failed, Barbour made a stirring plea for a continuance of the case for “at least six weeks,” presenting affi- davits to show that exhaustive valua- tion surveys now under way in the affected portions of Arlmgton and Fairfax County cannot be completed before that time. “We must insist on a fair trial of this very important case,” Barbour said, “and we cannot get a fair trial unless we are given sufficient time in which to prepare our case. This in- formation ‘which we need is vital to our case, and without it we cannot even hopé to file an answer.” Supporting Barbour in this plea were the other lawyers for the de- fense, including Commonwealth: At- torney William C. Gloth of Arlington | County, State Senator Frank L. Ball, Delegate Charles T. Jesse, F. 8. Mc- Candish, Crandall Mackey and' Com- monwealth Attorney Wilson Farr of Fairfax County. Counsel for Alexandria vigorously opposed the motion, charging that Arlington and Fairfax Counties merely wished to: delay the case until the Legislature could meet, “We don't want this case to be tried in several forurhs at once,” Al- bert Bryan, city attorney for Alexan- dria, declared.. C. C. Carlin of coun- sel for the city also objected to a delay. Judges Decide Quickly, The judges adjourned to chambers to decide the final plea of the counties, and 'after deliberating be- hind closed- doors for flve minutes they returned, to the courtroom and announced that the trial must go for- ward Thursday. Arlington County can present its valuation data later, it was explained, At one point during the hearing it appeared that opposing counsel might Eet together .gn an agreement by Alexandria to withdraw the suit, pro- vided Senator Ball could give assur- ance to Alexandria that no legislation affecting the annexation move would be introduced at the forthcoming session of the Legislature. In further- ance of this attempt to settle the ‘case out of ccurt, counsel for both sides interrupted the hearing with a re- quest of the court that they might confer privately. A long conference ensued in the judge's chambers, but the whole move met with complete failure. The courtroom was crowded beyond its capacity, many delegations of citizens being on hand from various civio organizations interested in de- fendi the = coun from -Alex- andria’s sult of consummating | between Columt BALTIMORE, December 12.—Amos | i MR.
