BERGER HURT LIOUOR FINED FORCONSPIRACY Philadelphia Banker and Club-man Fined $200 by Federal Jtjge CASE SETS PRECEDENT Court Rules Purchase Which Causes Transportation of Liquor is Violation (By United Press) PHILADELPHIA, Dec. 27. In the first case in prohibition history when a buyer of alleged bootleg liquor was tried for con spiracy to violate the law, Aiirbo E. Norris, New York and Philadelphia hanker and club man, was fined $200 today by Federal Judge William H.

Kirkpatrick. The Judge held that purchasers of Illegal liquor were amenable to prosecution under conspiracy statutes of the country if their dealings with the bootleggers involved the element of transportation. In the Norris case, liquor from Philadelphia, was sent to New York at Norris' order, it was contended. The banker's counsel appealed to the Circuit Court and Norris. meanwhile, was released on $400 bond pending the outcome.

Judge Kirkpatrick said the "mere purchase" of liquor was not an offense under the present laws, but If a buyer's transactions with a bootlegger required the seller to transport the liquor, then both are guilty of conspiracy. The judge said that it was sufficient for the buyer to order the liquor over the telephone and then later pay for Its delivery to show an agreement between the two par-t'es to transport the liquor. Norris and Joel D. Kerper, called "society bootlegger" because he claimed among his patrons prominent persons of Philadelphia, Washington, New York, and Bar Harbor, were tried early tbls month on the conspiracy charges. The arraignment of Norris, the buyer, was said to be the first time In the history of prohibition enforcement in this country that the buyer who had dealings with a bootlegger had been charged with conspiracy.

GATEWAY TO SOUTH POLE Expedition ml Ice Barrier, 2400 Mile frori Last Uutpost or Civilization TO FLY OVER POLE U. S.

Flag Carried Farther South Than Ever Before; To Explore for 2 Years NEW YORK, Dec. 27. Commander Richard E. Byrd and his Soulh Polar Expedition has Teached the first objective In Its trip to the bottom ot the world. The great Ice barrier across Ross Sea, the gateway to the Soutn Pole, was sighted Christmas my and the expedition had reached a point 2,400 miln from the last out posts ot civilisation.

Through the New York the St. Louis Post Dispatch nd associated newspapers, Comman der Byrd sent the folowlng mes- ease to Secretary of the Navy Cur. tis D. Wilbur. "We have reached today the great mysterious ice barrier.

It presenta to us an Ice cliff higliei than the mast of the ship. On this Christmas day, wa are thankful and proud to report that we have been able to carry the American flair several hundred miles farther south than It has even been and it seems fitting that an airplane, that instrument of goodwill, should reach its farthest point south on Christmas day. We are 2,400 sta tute miles from the nearest human dwelling In the only area In the world where a ship can get so fai from civilization. That we are hera safely Is due to providence and my loyal and stout-hearted Bhlp mates, who have worked together unselfishly as a unit. It will prob ably be some days before we get ashore on account of ice that will be in the Bay of Whales." Beyond the Ice barrier Is a vast region of Ice and eternal snow covering millions of square miles which are Tlrtually unexplored.

Leaders of several expeditions tc the North Pole agree that only a great sea, mostly covered with Ice, stretches from the Atlantic to the Pacific, while South polar explorers agree that the South Pole If located on a great continent, containing ranges of mountains In some cases 10,000 feet high. Equipped for a stay of two ytarr In the frozen wastes. The Byrd ex pedltlon will endeavor to learn details regarding the unknown regions. Pictures will be taken from the four airplanes which the expedition carried and maps will bi made of unchartered districts. These unknown regions roughly follow a circle around the pole within ot near the 70th degree of latitude south.

From Whales Bay, where the Eyrd expedition will es tablish Its base for the greatest ad venture of its commander, who was the first man to fly over the Nortn Pole In an airplane and who crossed the Atlantic by airplane, then Is a crudely sketched outline of previous explorations. The Byrd expedition hopes tc map great stretches ot this terrl tory and discover other reaches. Special geographical, geological and astronomical Btudtes will be made by individual experts attached to the party of 65. Commander Byrd hopes to ba the first man to fly over the South Pole, although he was not the first to take an airplane Into the frozen southern regions. The British explorer Sir Hubert Wilkins has already made observations by airplane over the waste lands from his base at Deception Island far on the other side of the Antarctic from Whales Bay.
