New Law Helps Carl in Campaign
Assistant District Attorney J F Carl hails a new law aimed at closing immoral houses by criminalizing liquor sales in such venues and mandating both a fine and jail term for violators. The law shields witnesses from prosecution for testimony given, encouraging more cooperative disclosures in efforts to shut down suspicious establishments. Carl notes two key provisions: mandatory dual punishment and witness immunity, which he says strengthen enforcement and deter proprietors and visitors alike.
