Or you may quarters will disp MUZZLE ILLEGAL Consumer Will Get Same Penalty as Bootlegger Believing that the man who buys or drinks liquor shares responsibility for the liquor traffic equally with the man who makes it or sells it, Justice Kenneth E. Morrison of Santa Ana has served notice that henceforth the booze consumer will get the same penalty in the local court that the booze purveyor gets—which is the maximum. This rule of treating seller and purchaser alike was placed in effect when Bernard G. Pederson, Los Angeles electrician, was ordered to pay a fine of $500 or serve 500 days in the county jail. Pederson had pleaded guilty to a charge of having liquor in his possession. He will pay the fine, it was said. In the case of "drunks" who have no liquor on their person and day jail sentence. The maximum will however, be the minimum also, so far as the Santa Ana justice court is concerned, Morrison made plain. In cases of possession, however, the penalty is the same as in cases of selling liquor, namely $500 fine or 500 days in jail. "I take the view," Justice Morrison told Pederson, "that the consumer is equally guilty with the producer in keeping the liquor traffic alive. It is certainly impossible to dispute the fact that if no one would drink liquor, no one would make or sell it. And if the moonshiners and bootleggers can, regardless, be charged with responsibility for the existence of booze, the consumer can just as surely be charged with responsibility for the existence of the moonshiners and bootleggers."

Incomplete phases of the Aquetania message were picked up by seaport stations and led to a widespread rumor that the vessel had met with disaster. NEW YORK, Dec. 27. — The liner Aquetania sent word at noon today that she was in a severe gale in mid-Atlantic, according to the New York offices of the Cunard line. The Aquetania was making only nine knots an hour, the wireless said, and the ship had covered but 220 miles from noon Friday to noon today.

WORLD GETTING DOWN TO BUSINESS (By Frederick Rupprecht) (Chairman of the Board of Consolidated Textile Corp., Writer Expressly for International News Service.) NEW YORK, Dec. 27. — Many commentators and observers have sought to account for the recent uprush on the stock exchange by definitely greater earning prospects in various industries. Such prospects, no doubt, exist but it seems to me that the general optimism as to next year (of which I merely refer to the stock market as a barometer) is based fundamentally upon a belief that the world in general has settled down to business. British and American elections, together with a trend toward political stability and sanity in other countries, is a convincing evidence that we have recovered from most of our post-war malice. Europe is re-establishing its trade, stabilizing its currency and going forward. This is the confidence creating background with which we enter upon 1925. WRITING EXPERTS FOLLOW UP CLUES GLENDALE, Dec. 27. — Hand-writing clues were followed today by officers seeking the bomber who sent a deadly infernal machine in a Christmas package to Ernest M.

Torchia received at least five death threats, three of which were made within the last two months, detectives learned today. Nearly a dozen persons are under suspicion. The investigators now believe the bomb was mailed from San Francisco by a person living here who wished to throw detectives off the trail. OF OLUHOT Leading L. A. Attorneys Say Jury Witnesses Cannot Be Stifled Wm. Starbuck, Albert E. Steulke and Rev. Leon Myers have appealed to Superior Judge Drumm for release from oaths of secrecy as to testimony before the Orange-co grand jury, taken at the instance of Dist. Atty. A. P. Nelson whom they charge with making a fance of justice by conducting a secret inquiry into his own office, it became known today. The letter was sent by registered mail to the Jurist Wednesday. No reply had been received up to this afternoon. The letter was addressed to Judge Drumm because it was on a ruling he made that the three representatives of the Christian Citizens Committee, which conducted the recent record dry law enforcement raid, submitted to the oaths of secrecy. "Dist. Atty. Nelson is not going to shut our mouths," declared Wm. Starbuck, "even if we have to go to jail. It will take a supreme court decision before we'll admit we licked." "We were notified at 6 p.m. Monday evening that we should appear before the grand jury at 10 a.m. the next day. We were there at 9:30 a.m. We protested that we had not had time to get legal opinions from two of the leading we take oaths of secrecy. "Since then we have obtained opinions from two or the leading attorneys of Los Angeles. Both advised that there is no law compelling such oath on the part of a witness before a grand jury. Therefore we have asked Judge Drumm to release us from such oath." The special delivery letter mailed Governor Richardson Christmas day, asking him to intervene and make it a real investigation, had not reached the executive offices at Sacramento at 11 a.m. today, according to telegraphic inquiry. The governor stated that he would probably refer the request immediately to Atty-Gen. Webb. Following are copies of the letter addressed to Judge Drumm and of the opinion by Atty. Byron Hanna of Los Angeles: Judge Drumm, Dept. 3, Superior Court of Orange Co. Santa Ana City Dear Judge Drumm: Under protest and under your direction you took the bath of secrecy before the Grand Jury Tuesday, December 23rd. At that time, I. W. Starbuck asked time for legal counsel, which was denied.

Offers of aid have been received from cities all over the United States. Mayor P. E. Gillespie said that these would not be refused, but that Hobart was not soliciting help. COHEN SENDS NOTE Milton Cohen, prominent Los Angeles attorney, had to dig down in his pockets to pay $40 as a fine for his son's tactics while driving in Orange-co. But in doing so he took a "dig" at Orange-co traffic laws, including "cutting in" of which Cohen junior was guilty. He wrote this and pinned on a check made out to Justice K. E. Morrison at Santa Ana: "I desire to congratulate you and the county of Orange for the kind of fine being the minimum, as you say, in such a minor infraction of the law. It is my intention to suggest to the county of Los Angeles that it pattern its ordinance after your county." A Class Ad is host little salesman.
