Such an action would be an unusual legal pro- cedure, inasmuch as Iilinois law pro- vides that the attorney general act only when a county prosecutor been found to be prejudiced. ‘The understanding today was that judge and submit a petition asking the court to direct the attorney general of Tllinois to take charge of the case. “In so doing,” Carbary sa do not necessarily admit that I am preju- diced in the usual sense of the word, for I am not.

The Constitution provides that members of Congress shall be im- mune from arrest when going to and | from sessions. This has been variously | construed at different times in Ameri- | | ean history.

It Is a novel interpretation, but is being talked about just the same. | For if the Constitution makes it im- | possible for a member of Congress to be held up for violating a traffic law when he is on his way to the Capitol it might make it questionable whether a cus- toms officer had the right to detain offictal business.

Not After Flask Toters. The general impression has gone out that the Government will arrest any one caught carrying a flask on the hip. This is within the right of the Government under the new law, but it is not the policy. One reason is that the Govern- ment considers it too expensive at the moment to engage in wholesale arrests, and therefore it isn't fair to arrest a few and not all that the Government considers it far mare important at the moment to use its funds and power to catch those who are part of the organized liquor traffic—the bootleggers and those higher up who control the drade. 1t, therefore, the law is not being en- forced against private citizens who | carry a few bottles for their pe use, it is not likely to be applied agains members of Congress.
