" DRYS WILL OPPOSE LIFE TERM CHANGE Michigan Governor Told League Will Fight Alteration of Habitual Criminal Law. By the Associated Press. | LANSING, Mich., February 2.—Notice has been served on Gov. Fred W. Green that the Anti-Saloon League of Mich- igan will fight any effort to exempt liquor offenders from life imprisonment | under the State's habitual criminal law. | R. N. Holsaple, superintendent of the league, told Gov. Green yesterday that | the drys believe a liquor offender is ished after a fourth offense, not for liquor violation, but for habitual crim- inality. Declaration of open opposition to the administration plan to amend the crim- inal code to eliminate prohibition law violators from the category of felons, thereby exempting them from life im- prisonment upon a fourth offense, came at a brief conference of the dry leader with the governor. Sees Law Undermined. The governor retorted that the code, | as an instrument for the prevention of crime, is a strong weapon, but that continued attacks upon one provision— that making it mandatory to pass life sentences upon liquor law violators, alimony dodgers and others of similar classification—tend to undermine it. He | Jeft no doubt he would support any | amendment eliminating those offenses | from the law. Holsaple was equally definite in saying he would fight any mitigation of the penalty for dry law offenders. | Approves Code Amendment. | The dry law superintendent said he approves a bill introduced by Senator | Leon P, Miner which would raise the | penalty for first liquor law violators to five years, and thus place them under the life sentence penalty, even though a proposed amendment to the criminal code, making the habitual criminal law applicable only to crimes for which a | minimum sentence of five vears is pre- | seribed, is passed. The amendment is | sponsored by Wilbur M. Brucker, attor- ney general. SOUTH DAKOTA SOCIETY WILL HOLD RECEPTION Elk to Be Roasted for Banquet To- day Is Sent by State Park + Management.
