FUNDAMENTAL LAW A JUDGES STRICTURES SAYS J’UOIIIISITION IS A JOKE Los Angelos Examiner, 12th April, 1U25. Declaring it- 100 ddiieult to convict bootleggers under the Volstead Jaw, Judge Davis to-day dismissed the case of Stanley Peredna and ordered his license restored, saying: “The present law is a joke. The Ci nrts are cluttered up with a lot of petty cases like Perdena’s, where a couple of drinks were found in his place, while one never hears of a wealthy man with a cellar full of booze being dragged into Court. “Not one of the big bootleggers in Chicago lias ever been convicted— it is invariably the little fellow. Prohibition can never bo enforced because it makes crimes of things that arc j not criminal. It. offends a, fundamental law of human nature—a, law stronger than all the Acts of Parliament in the world. New Zealand has no room for unnatural and impractical laws. She refuses to lie decoyed into social chaos and mora' degradation.—Advt.
