Judge Raps Cafe On Liquor Cutting Federal Judge Robert A. Inch yesterday vacated a stay granted last Wednesday restraining Federal inrevenue agents from seizing furnishings and fixtures of the Moulin Rouge, a cabaret at 350 Flatbush Ave. Extension, which was raided Wednesday. The Federal agents charged the place was selling liquor on which the tax had not been paid, and alleged further that tax-paid liquor was being cut with liquor on which taxes had not been paid. Leonard Greenstone, attorney for the Moulin Rouge, argued the agents had exceeded their authority in making the raid without a search warrant.

Judge Inch remarked: "Any establishment serving cut liquor to its patrons should be put out of business. The public should get good quality liquor and the Government should get its taxes." HIGH WATER High Water Low Water A.M. P.M. A.M. P.M.

That is the opinion of Deputy Dock Commissioner Zelcer in charge of aviation who announced last night that the Barren Island field was open for air traffic. When the bulletin was posted at Newark Airport, Newark officials were joyful in view of Mayor LaGuardia's efforts to have Floyd Bennett Field made the eastern terminal of the air mails now terminating at Newark. "One wide runway, running 4.000 feet east and west along the northerly side of the field, has been clear of snow since the storm abated," Zelcer said yesterday.

"The concrete northwest -southeast runway will be cleared by morning." Several dozen planes have taken off and landed at the field on Friday and Saturday, including a heavily-laden Douglas transport bound for Miami, the commissioner added. "It is sheer idiocy for Newark to boast," Zelcer declared. He added that his inspectors were to report to the Commerce ment last night that the field was safe for daytime landings.

Guerra remained in, and chose a new cabinet. but succumbed shortly afterward to the power of Primo de Rivera's dictatorship, which replaced Guerra Guerra, a year later, went into voluntary exile in France to propagandize against the dictator.

THE BUSINESS OF EDWARD A. SEXTON I 18 BEING CONTINUED AT Brooklyn is comparatively free from the Dutch elm disease, according to W.

Howard Rankin. State supervisor of Dutch Elm Disease Control, who yesterday praised the City Park Department for its cooperation. There are 75,000 elms in the city, Dr. Rankin said, of which 1,258 diseased trees were destroyed last Summer. The chief centers of infection were Staten Island and the Pelham Bay section of the Bronx.

Brooklyn, Queens and Manhattan had only 137 diseased elms. The Dutch elm disease can not be arrested by spraying, nor possible to save a tree after attacked, Dr. Rankin said. The only way to prevent spread of the disease by elm bark beetles is to burn blighted trees at once. In anu effort to get the blight under control in this area by next Summer, a number of elm trees either dead dying will be removed before Spring, Dr.

Rankin said. Since the carrier beetles breed in the dead trees, this should have great value, he added. Teacher Insane. Coroner Rules In 4 Dole Deaths Cripple. 27, Slew 2 Relief Aides.
