Shumaker, superintendent of the Indiana Anti-Saloon League, was on file today with the state supreme court. At the same tim£ the motion to dismiss was filed, an answer was submitted to recommendations of a com mJttee of "friends of the court,” that Dr. Shumaker fie found guilty of contempt. The answer attacked the stand tak on by five of thd six lawyers serving as friend's of the court and asesrted they were resorting to the obsolete legal theory of “the king can do no wtong.” It was also asserted that Shumaker was not guilty of false statement? in his annual report criticizing dry law decisions ot the supreme court and that to punish him for contempt would deprive hftn of his rights of free speech.

MUCH RUM TAKEN BY COAST GUABD By Joseph S. Wasney )United Press Staff Correspondent) Wa-hington. D. C., July 22. —(Unit- ■ oJ Press) —One hundred thousand . cases of genuine liquor, destined for thifsty Americans during the warm nibnths, have been seized by Coast Guards so far this year, Lieut. Comnfiinder Stephen Yeandle. supervising officer of the Federal dry navy said today. Rum runners, spurred by prospects ot huge profit 1 ', swarm off tho coasts waiting oppottunity bafid cargces. he said. Approximate ly one out of every five rum ships eludes the Coast Guard blockade and hands its liquor, tt was estimated. Eighty liquor laden ships have beep stozed insidft American territorial waters in the last six months. They - contained casks of champaign, ales whiskey and rum and tins of alcohol ! sot gin making. In capturing the ships, the dry navy ' aiiested 120 men as prohibition law violators. In several of the seizures, the Federal “gobs” found the crew; . had jumped overboard, preferring t< take a chance on swimming ashore rather that submit to arrest. While fighting the boodleggers. the guard ships on patrol work captured a dozen boats attempting to smuggle aliens into the United States. The •oreigners seeking illegal entry were reported as undesirable. Combatting liquor rings is the guard's big jeYb this summer. By September 1. the federal force will have five airplanes to spot rum ships off shore. Seveidl new cutters will be added to the service and the patrol fleet reinforced by about 100 speed launches. Yeandle predicted that by fall the snmggling situation would be under control.
