70 ARE HELD IN RAIDS
ON MALT COMPANIES
Dry Agents Push Charges of Con
spiracy to Violate Prohibi
tion Law.
By the Associated Press.
DETROIT. February 8—With 70
persons In custody, special prohibition
officers today were perfecting the case
upon which they hope to convict mem
bers and employes of two malt prod
ucts companies of conspiracy to violate
the prohibition law.
The agents said it was a new tack
in prohibition enforcement and that
the cases probably will be carried
through the Supreme Court.
The companies raided, the Pfeiffer
Products Co. and the Meyers Products
Co., are accused of supplying malt to
illicit breweries A score or more per
sons who called at the plants for malt
after the raids started were held for
questioning
A three-month investigation, which
involved tapping of telephone wires and
trailing of delivery trucks, laid the
groundwork for the raids. Books of
the concerns were seized.
