2 LIQUOR VIOLATORS- ; FINED BY HANDLEY; LENIENCY IS DENiEO . Jame3 Goodwin, pleading guilty lo a charge ot violation of the liquor law, was fined $100 and costs by Mayor Lawrence Handley, in police court .Monday morning. Goodwin, who lives at 510 North Twentieth street, was arrested at 10 o'clock Saturday night. Harry Goodwin, a son, living on the Henley road, was fined $100 and costs and sentenced to SO days on the penal farm for violation of the liquor law. He wa3 arrested at 4 o'clock Sunday afternoon. Legal counsel was employed by the two Goodwins in their trial Monday morning. The trial was held at 10 o'clock after the regular grist of cases had been run through by the court.
Officers who arrested James Goodwin J found a jug of whisky in his home. I
At the home of Harry Goodwin a still was found in working order. Harry Goodwin also had a small touring car, minus license plates and a certificate of title. The car was brought to police headquarters and held pending further investigation. Goodwin Released Everett Goodwin, another son of James Goodwin, living on the Chester pike, was also arrested Sunday evening. He was released after questioning by the prosecutor. Attorney Will Reller, appearing on behalf of James and Harry Goodwin, Hted Victor Hugo's story ot Jean Val,ican, hero of Les Miserables, as a precedent for tempering justice with mercy.
' I am not asking that the court de-;
fist from enforcing the liquor law and 1 am glad the present administration noes not contemplate any laxity in dealing with these cases," he said., "Yet are sufferers from present economic conditions to be made to suffer the full force of the law, when they may have been lured into violation by the fact that others have been getting away with violations, seemingly without molestaion? " ,' " s , Cites Jean Valjean. "The court may remember the story of Jean Valjean who stole a loaf of bread, was sentenced to prison, and ,was finally made a Confirmed criminal through his sentence. "I know there is a strong sentiment lor the enforcement of the liquor laws, .yet some of thoe who call loudly far "action, would, in your place, be louched by the peculiar circumstances of each case." Points to Oath Mayor Handley in sentencing the defendants, took the position that if he rmade an exception in one case, he must make an exception in all. "When I took the oath to enforce the Constitution, it included the eighteenth amendment," he said. "Both these men are American citizens and cannot "plead ignorance of the law. I have made the statement that no suspended sentences would be allowed. -That statement should have been warning 'enough. Every case that comes in .here has its particular appeal for leniency." Mike Swartzkopf, arrested at his home. 607 North Thirteenth street, at 9:30 o'clock Saturday evening, entered a plea of guilty in court Monday morning. His case was taken under advisement.

COMPTROLLER WOULD LIMIT REDISCOUNTS OF ALL BANK PAPER WASHINGTON, Jan. O.-rLimitation of the privilege of rediscounting bank paper as a means of extending credit was recommended to congress today' by D. R. Crissinger, comptroller of the currency, in his report for the year ending last Oct. 31. Rediscounting ofj one bank's paper by another bank is, at best, he said "a questionable procedure" 'and is liable to become a menace when "a bank pyramids its credit" through misuse of the privilege. "I feel that recent experience admonishes us of the need for limitations and safeguards against the possibility of excesses," Mr. Crissinger said. "If the law had placed a wise and proper limitation upon the extent of these rediscounts, very few national banks, in my opinion, would have failed or even been gravely embarrassed." -The comptroller recorded his emphatic opposition to the tax exemption, proposed by congress, of $300 of income received from money invested in building and loan associations, declaring that it "offers a new method for the tax dodger, is undesirable and class legislation." He reiterated sundry recommendations to meet changed conditions in methods of banking," all of which, he said, already have been embodied in resolutions presented in congress. Stability Is Marked Mr. Crissinger devoted considerable space in his report to an econium of the national banks of the country, which, he said, throughout the trying peridd of last year "demonstrated a most impressive stability, strength and soundness of management." ' National banks chartered during the year totaled 169, the report showed, with aggregate capitalization of $20,003,000. In the same period 34 banks were reported to have failed and 93 to have gone into voluntary liquidation.
State commercial banks showed the greatest increase for any single class of banking institution, the comptroller reported, growing from 18,195 to 18.ST5 with aggregate resources increasing by $190,000,000. Loan and trust companies increased 66 in number, but decreased $13S,900,000 in resources.
