MAINE SENATOR T0 STAND BY LETTER Admifs He's “Wet” aad De- Plores Prohibition Law Presque Lsle, Me.,, June 28 (AP)— Maine, which 75 years ago adopted a prohibitory liquor law, y learned that its junior United States Senator Arthur R. Gould, repub- |be lican, in support of a testimonial letter ;:iu he mid : st. ln:lei: company he had secu: !:: very results” from the econcern’s unfermented product, as- serted last night that it was his %“right to have, make and drink” light wines and beer. Everyone Kwows Sentiments “Everybody who knows me,” he declared, “knows that the sentiments relating to prohibition. as expressed in that letter are my sentiments.” He said that the licensing of light wines and beer would be a great im- {_!wement over the present prohibi- ion law which seems impossible to enforce.” The senator’s statement drew im- mediate announcements from anti- saloon leaders that the state’s dry forces would be aligned against his re-election a year hence.: The letter was made publi terday in a St. Louis civil after counsel for the grape i company said it would be introduced to refute claims that the concern’s product was unsatisfactory. Questioned at his home here, Sen- ator Gould was vehement in defense of his right to “have, make and drink” wine and beer. Residents of hiz own section of northern Maine made wine from elderberries and grapes, he said. “God Almighty put those flowers and vines on the earth and he intended them to be used.” Vielates Liquor Law Doran at Washington would not comment on the letter, he declared that manufacture of wine from fi:pc juice violated the prohibition m‘éhion his opinion md‘vu subj penalty imposed for any illegal manufacture of intoxicants. Assistant Secretary Lowman of the treasury, in charge of prohibition enforcement, lained that it never has been the E‘xrizy of the bureau to enter private homes for the purpose of determining whether fruit juices were fermenting unless it was lished that the beverages were to be placed on sale. In the testimonial, dated May 11, 1927, Senator Gould wrote: “As you know, I come from a pro- hibition state and I am supposed to a prohibitionist, but I am about as loyal to the prohibition element as some of these southern democrats are to the democratic party While I am from a prohibition state and find it is not policy to be too outspoken as to my statements, I don’t mind telling you and the world that I be- lieve a license for light wines and beer would be a great improvement over the present prohibition law.” Voted Against Jones Bill - Senator Gould, who was elected in 1926 to fill the unexpired term of the late Bert M. Fernald, voted against the recently enacted Jones law, which imposes stiff penalties for liquor law violations, because he “had always stood that way.” He has not announced his candidacy for re-election. Rev. Frederick W. Smith of Waterville, executive secretary of the Maine Christian Civic League, stated last night that the organiza- tion would oppose Semator Gould’s re-election. The league represents the Anti-Saloon League of America, which has no branch in Maine. Mrs. Althea G. Quinby‘ state pres- ident of the W. C. T. U, said that “Senator Gould was not the candi- date of the W. C. T. U. Certainly the organization will be even more frank and outspoken against his re- election.” Views Sharply Contrast Washington, June 28 (AP)—Pro- hibition enforcement officials hold NEW BRITAIN DAILY HERALD, ' pressed by Senator Arthur R. Gould of Maine in his defense of his “right to have, make and drink” light wines and beers. While Prohibition Commissioner Doran and Assistant Secretary Low- man of the treasury have refused to comment on the senator's letter, made public in a St. Louis court case, saying he had obtained “some v;ry fair rejulu” with the Jm‘ilu:ht of a grape juice com whi it was addressed, t.hc"t'!o officials have made it clear that they regard the making of wine from fruit juices as a violation of the prohibition law. Ne Decision lssued Publication of the letter served as a reminder that Doran has not an- nounced the result of his recent sur- vey of the California pe juice crop to determine the ultimate use to which it was put and whether any of it went into the manufacture of illicit liquor. The commissioner de- clined to say just what he ex would be shown when the study was completed. “The law permits only the manu- facture of unfermented fruit juices for exclusive consumption in the home,” he said, “and the manufac- ture of wine is unlawful and punish- sble with the same penalty as the manufacture of any other liquor.” The prohibition bureau has never taken a great interest in the mak- ing of wine or home brew in the home, because its forces are deemed inadequate to start such a campaign. | Three Documents Filed To Correct Minor Error The absence of one letter in the spelling of a name made it necessary to file three documents at the office of the town clerk yesterday, as a re- sult of which title to Lawlor street property was cleared. Antonio Mig- liozzi, now deceased, received the property under a deed which spelled his name, “Miliozzi.” He later sold to Sebato Maietta and Michelena Mai etta, using the misspelled name. They sold to Vito Dorio. Sebato Mai- etta is now deceased and it was nec- ment in her own behalf and for th While Prohibition Commissioner | views in sharp contrast to those ex- |tor.
