ashington Struggles Problem While Complaints Over Border Shootings Still Pour In Law Enforcement Commission to Take No Notice of Situation—Towns Near Boundary Line Pledge Support — Cameraman Is Kidnaped Washington, June 19 (UP)—Un- deterred by protests growing out of | killings Incident to prohibition en- | forcement, the administration con-| tinued today to struggle with the problem of choking off the flow of | liquor from Canada. | President Hoover was expected to| reply today to city officials of Inter- | national Falls, Minn.,, who protested againat the tactics of federal cus- | toms agents which resulted in the| killing of Henry Virkula. | Expects Aid From Citles | He already has indicated, how- ever, that he expects border com- munities to stand behind the fed- eral government in its effort to sup- presa international liquor smugglers. Assistant Secretary of Treasury Low- man has reports which he says indi- cate an unprecedented concentration of rum smugglers on the Canadian border. Federal agents are to be used at strategic places, he sald, as soon as the situation at Detroit im- proves tc permit the release of agents mobilized there. The president’s law enforcement commission is completing organiza- tion and eypects about October 1 to begin public hearings at which gov- ernment officials and crime special- ists will present their views, Chair- man Wickersham has announced. He said that no plans hive been made to send investigators to Detroit, In- ternational Falls or other placeui where there have been special difli-! culties as the commission is inter- ested in the general problem and not in specific instances. No Notice of Killings It was made plain that that the commission will take no official notice for the present of the various | enforcement shooting and protests | growing out of them. In Wisconsin a new problem has been raised by the introduction in state senate of a proposed amend- ment to the state constitution to per- mit the state to manufacture and sell intoxicating liquor. State Senator Gettelman, author of the resolution, | belleves it will be permissible. He | does not think the eighteenth amend- ment applies to the states as such. Prohibition officials here attach no importance to the proposal. They feel certain it cannot stand the test of the courts. Prohibition Commis- sioner Doran said the United States supreme court, in the Rhode Island | case, had held that the eighteenth amendment applies alike to all legis- laturds, courts and citizens. The same view was held at the depart- ment of justice. State Expected to Prosecute It appeared today that the prosec- cution in the Virkula case would be left in the hands of the state of Minnesota rather than a federal court. The county attorney at In-| ternational Falls was proceeding to- | day with preparations for a state trial. He expects that Emmett J. ‘White, border dry enforcer, charged with the shooting, will waive pre- | liminary examination when ar-| raigned July 2. | Unable to make any headway with his John Doe inquiry into the fatal shooting of Arthur Gordon, boy bootlegger. near Mooers, N. Y. by two customs men a few days ago, District Attorney B. Loyal O'Con- .nell has adjourned his inquiry until Monday. O'Connell has been unable to ob- tain & report of the shooting frem federal authorities or to obtain thg presence of the four customs men said to be present when Gordon was shot. | | | A report on a new prohibition in- cident with international aspects,— the firing by United States guardsmen on a speedboat contain- ing & Canadian woman and two American men in Canadian waters,— was expected to be in the hands of Canadian officials at Ottawa tody.

One report de- clared that the speedboat was chased a mile and a half by the coast- guardsmen. Border Towns Surprised Albany, Y., June 19 (—Pres- ident Hoover's appeal to communi- ties along the Canadian border “to help the treasury to prevent the systematic war being waged by in- ternational criminals against the laws of this country,” caused con- siderable surprise in some quarters of the borderland. Officials of cities along the inter- national line, as well as in many others in northern New York, how- ever, quickly promised cooperation. Ready to Help John H. McGauley of Plattsburg near which Arthur Gordon, 22, was shot fatally last Saturday, said “The city of Plattsburg has at all times stood ready to aid federal au- thorities in enforcement of law. “I have, within the past few months, been compelled to protest to Collector Tulloch (collector of the port of Ogdensburg) of the customs departmcf against promiscuous uses of guns in the hands of en- forcement officers chasing law- breakers through the streets of this city and using their guns as though they were on the open road. Promised Protection “Collector Tulloch has promised to see that the citizens of this city Nevertheless, sev- that time. As to cooperation, we re- gard ourselves as good citizens of the United States and stand willing at any and all times to aid the president, even without being re- quested, in the enforcement of ail laws.” The president's appeal “came as a distinct surprise to residents here,” sald Police Chief Herbert S. Myers of Ogdenburg. “There has been, of course, spas- modic liquor running and aliea smuggling along the Canadian bor- der, but this reference to a systema- tic war is the first we have heard about it.” Mayor W. Allan Newell, declined to comment. Said J. C. Wilson, mayor of Ro- chester: “We will be very glad to cooperate in any way to enforce any and all laws, including the prohibi- tion law. We are doing our utmost |to do s0 at the present time and in- tend to continue.” Mayor Paul WeWiss of Dunkirk sai, We aid the government in all ways possible to stop this nefarious traffic (in liquor) and.we will con- tinue to do so.” Kidnapers Sought Windsor, Ont., June 19 (A—Pro- vincial police today were seeking a band of rum runners who kidnaped a newspaper photographer, threat. ened to throw him into the river and rcleased him only after they had confiscated films he had taken of their activities, Horace Wild, 45, a photographer for the Border Cities Star, accom- panied by two reporters and his son, Noel, aged 18, were cruising on the Detroit river near Amherstbucg when their activities aroused anger of a score or more of rum runners loading cargoes for the night's run. The rum runners piled into four automobiles, keeplng pace with the Lbo’n\l along the shore road and post- ed guards on all roads leading from With an idea of throwing off their pursuers, and his son alighted at a private dock while the boat continued up- stream with the two newspapermen. Both Are Captured Wild hid his camera in the brush 2long the bank but he and his son were captured by nearly a dozen men when they reached the high- way. The son was searched and re- leased but the elder Wild was plac- ed in an automobile, forced to re- veal the hiding place of his camera. {and then was taken to an export dock, where he said some of the jmen suggested that he be {into the river, Officials of the Star, learning of |the plight of their ~photographer, notified the provincial police, but before their arrival Wild had been |released by a dock official. The po- |lice escorted him back to the doc! |in an effort to identify his captors but the men had disappeared. Dock ofticials declared the kidnapers were Detroit rum runners and had re- |turned to the United States, Inspec- [tor Arthur Moss said charges of kidnaping would be pMferroa |against the men if their identity |could he established. | MOOSE PLAN FIELD DAY ‘for many, many years if the diet contains the v{til mineral ele- ments — phosphorus, calcium (lime), soluble iron.

Judge Yeomans' declaration that the son- ing ordinance is unconstitutional because it discriminates against the oil company, will go to the court of crrors at all events, the corporation counscl promised, and he considers there are at least five or six other debatable questions which shoyld be 1djudicated. K Section Considered Unconstitutional The section which Judge Yeo- mans considers to be uncopstitution- al reads as follows: “(g) No public garage shall be occupied in any part for residence purposes. No doorway for vehicles in any public garage, and no public gas pump or filing station in any Business “B” or Business “C" Dis- trict shall be located within 100 feet, along the same principal street front, from any premises, occupied by & church, school, hospital, or institu- tion for children: or within 75 feet in any direction therefrom: or with- in 50 feet, along the same - street, from the boundary of any Residence District. No doorway for vehicles in any public garage, and no public gas pump or filling station in any dis- trict other than a Business “B” or Business “C" District shall be lo- cated within 200 feet, in a direct line, from any premises occupied by a church, school, hospital, or insti- tution for children, or within 50 feet, along the same street, from the boundary of any Residence District. No public gas pump or filling station, unless within a building, shall be lo- cated within 12 feet of any street line. No public garage in any Busi- ness District shall have any part of its vehicle storage space on the first floor within 20 feet of an entrance or exit of the principal street.” Upholds Attorney Gaffney This finding supports one of the main contentions raised by Attorney Donald Gaffney as counsel for the Standard Oil Company. Inspector Rutherford and Alder- man David L. Nair, who was chair- man of the ordinance committee of the common council when zoning was adopted, responded affirmative- ly when Attorney Gaffney asked them if the industrial zone restric- tions were framed with the idea in mind of preventing the petitioner from establishing a gasoline station on,Franklin 8quare. Observation of this testimony is made in the open- ing ‘paragraph of the Yeomans find- ing. Judge Kirkham took issue on the question of discrimination. He de- clared there are many other plots of land in the city that would come under the same restriction and that the city had legislatlve right, through the zoning enabling act, to impose whatever restrictions it saw fit. The {wo attorneys also debated at length the question of whether the case was properly in court, Judge Kirkham insisting that appeal should first having been taken to the board of adjustment, while At- torney Gaffney argued that th: board was stopped from hearing the by reason of the Masonic Temple decision.

Every drug store sells Dr. Call- well's Syrup Pepsin, POLISH MUSIC STORE 97 Broad Street Mermorandam Judge Yeoman's memorsadum reads:— “The evidence shows that the er- dinance forbidding the srection of gasoline station within 300 feet a church in an industrial center was adopted for the purposs of prevents ing the erection of a gas station on this particular tract of land. Aside from this the ordinance is contrary to the spirit of the soning act which requires greater protection in resi- dential and business sones than in ndustrial. This principle is revers- ed in this case by allowing gas sta- tions nearer churches in business zones than in industrial. The son- ing act is in derogation of the rights of property owners and ordinances passed under it must be atrictly construed and are only conatitution- al where they tend to carry out the avewed purposes of the act. The ordinance is unconstitutional. “The respondients say that before asking for a inandamus the peti- tioner must exhaust all its other remedies. “It is claimed that no application waus made to the building inspector because it was not made on the re- quired form. “The evidence shows that this form is filled out by the bullding in- spector who did not fill it out in this case because he denied the applica- tion solely because he deemed it con- trary to the ordinance. “It is also claimed that appeal should have been taken to the boeyd of adjustment. This was done but the board of adjustment refused to hear it ,deeming that they had no power to override the ordinance. “This conclusion they drew from the decision in the case of ‘Willlam C. Hungerford et al, vs Board of Adjustment of the City of New Brit- ain. The reasoning of Judge Jen- nings in that case seems to me to be correct and the board were justified in their refusal to act. If they had gone through the form of holding a hearing they could have come to no other conclusion. “It follows that the petitioner ha: no other remedy and the writ of mandamus may be {ssued.” Ald. Johnson Non Committal Alderman J. Gustave Johmson, leader of the common council bloc which has successfully opposed sone changes which would have permit- ted the oil company to proceed with its plans, had little comment to make today. Asked ff he still clings to the view- point that the entire law should be discarded in the event the city is reversed in this case, he said he wished further time to study the de. cision and learn of Judge Kirkham' plans, with reference to appeals.
