Promises to "Rock Wash-

WASHINGTON Jan. 14. The sup-
ply of "embassy" liquors which polio
declare have found thalr way into th
bootleg trade of Washington was
declared by enforcement officers to-
night to have been curtailed aa a
result of alleged disclosures by John
J. uynch who was ajrrsated in a re
cent raid on his apartment when a
quantity of Scotch and rye whiskeys
and imported champagnes via said to
hsve been seised.
Lynch in an affidavit according te
the police named on legation a a
source of his supplies and added that
they hsd been promised further in-
formation that would "rock the city"
and might result in some step to re
quest the State and treaaury depart
ments to curtail the supplies or in
toxicant! received through diplomatic
permits.
Cuban Prolsst

nymous police sources however that
soma of th liquor solssd In th re
cent raid had come from th Cuban
Isgation resulted in a visit to th
tat department of th legation
charge. Dr- Arturo Fedrd y Almeida
and public statement by him that

alleged selling of liquor at the lega
tion.
At the stat department h t un
derstood to hsvs Inquired of Under
secretary Phillips If there was any
truth to th published stories that
lo-nch had named the Cuban legation
in sn affidavit as on source of his
suppllss as a middleman between dl
plomatio souress and bootleggers in
ths national capital. He was said te
hav been told that no such Inform
tion had been laid before the depart
ment officially.
Immune From Arrest.
High federal prohibition officials re
roained silent today refusing to dl
cuss the case at this time bet It was
said that Id gar N. Read divisional
chief of prohibition enforcement of-
ficers here had taken under consid-
eration the affidavit signed by Lynch
with a view to recommending Its re-
port to the stat department "If the
facts warranted."
Employes of embasslsa and legations
as well as their officers it was point-
ed out are immune from arrest but
ths state department it was explain-
ed can maks suitable recommenda-
tions to any embassy or legation In
the matter.
The alleged disclosures made by
Lynch brought out prominently the
campaign by capital police and revenue
agents against suspected dealings her
in foreign liquors through soms sm
basal ea and legations. Raids during
the last six months hsvs dlsolosed
some liquor of an apparent high grade
and to all appearances of foreign
manufacture. Through statements
made by Lynch in hla affidavit the
police believe they hav located one
of the principal sources of such in
toxicants.
