“unlawful Intent” on the part of those who sell such products. He outlined his position in a letter to Rufus S. Lusk, executive secretary of the Crusaders, new antiprohibition organization, which Lusk made public today. Lusk asked a ruling in view of the wide-spread sale of such grape concentrates in kegs with the advertised purpose of making wine, calling attention to the establishment of a sales office by Fruit Industries, Inc., of California, across the street from the justice department, and within two blocks of the White House. “If these articles are advertised and sold with an intent that they be used in the manufacture of a beverage which is intoxicating in fact, then such advertisement and sale are unlawful,” the federal prohibition director said. * “We have prosecutions against somewhat similar enterprises under
way in Los Angeles and Kansas City. Such prosecutions will be made whenever the evidence of such unlawful intent is avilable to convince a petit jury beyond a reasonable doubt.” He called to Lusk's attention, however, “the practical difficulty of the proof of such unlawful intent.” ANTLDRY WOMEN~MEET Hundreds Gather at Washington to Refute Dry Claims. WASHINGTON, April 13.—The shock troops of the women’s antiprohibition forces began to appear in Washington today, and by tomorrow “more than a thousand live and vigorous refutations of Mrs. Henry W. Peabody's statement that ‘women of America favor prohibition’, ” will have arrived, according to press notices of the women’s organization for national prohibition reform.
TINY PLANES AT LOW COST HOLD SHOWJNTEREST Builders’ Effort to Attract Average Man Stressed at Detroit Exposition. BY ERNIE PYLE, Times Staff Correspondent DETROIT, April 13.—Each year the national aircraft show is looked forward to by the public for disclosures of the latest trends in airplane building. But in this year's show, now in progress here, the
“trend seekers” do not have to look far. There Is one outstanding trend, and the one only—that is the attempt of manufacturers to go after the common person, the man with the small pocketbook. The show is full of tiny planes of low horse power and supposedly easy to fly, selling from $975 up to $2,000. The show is being held in the $1,000,000 hangar at the Detroit city airport. It is the biggest hangar in the world. There are eighty-three planes on display, that many more on the field for actual flight demonstration, and a couple of hundred visiting planes here. The cheapest plane at the show is the little Heath, at $975, and the most expensive is the Ford transport, at $50,000. The autogiro exhibit is drawing more attention than any other. The Pitcairn Autogiro Company has three “windmills” on display.
