Supreme Court invalidates double liquor tax penalty provision
The Supreme Court ruled the double tax and penalty provision of the prohibition law invalid for illegal liquor manufacture and sale. Lipke of Philadelphia sued to restrain collection. the injunction was denied in lower courts but granted by the Supreme Court. Seventeen violators were placed on the tax duplicate in Larain County to collect a $1000 tax and $200 penalty. Prosecutor Lawrence Webber says the tax can be collected under state law, not federal law, while Roy Cope agrees. He notes the original law taxed illegal liquor and licenses were later removed by federal action but the tax remains valid.

Attorney Wesley Grills will argue an appeal in Cleveland tomorrow from Judge Redington’s habeas corpus ruling. If unsuccessful he will pursue mandamus to free C C Timberman from the county jail, unsure whether in common pleas or the court of appeals.
