EXPENSIVE LIQUOR ; Beverage Stocks Worth Ten Million | Dollars Placed Under Guard in Ontario. re- | the | Windsor, Ont., Aug. 11 @ — Seized liquor stocks valued at $10,. 000.000 were under guard of pro- vincial police today and 36 export- ers were under subpoenas to appear in court to answer to charges of violation of the Ontario liquor con- trol act The action, it is believed, will close up the source of supply of many of the bootleggers engaged in runping liquor into the United States The warehouses in which the li- quor is stored are Jocated across the river from Detroit, Mich. Complaints against the exporters were made by Sir Henry Drayton, head of the liquor control board, He said he hoped the action would serve as a test of that provision of the liguor control act regulating the stori of excessive stocks of liquor ehouses, Two of the largest liquor export. rs of the province, Harry Low and Sid Nathanson, were among those subpoenaed. Low is head of the In- ter-Transit company, an exporting concern for widespread liquor in- terests, Tt was the second large seizure of liquor in border warehouses in recent months. Two months ago the stocks of two other exporters of On- tario were seized. The case against them is still pending.
