Description
The appellant, M. L. Piassick, operated a wholesale grocery business in Atlanta, Georgia. As permitted by 26 U.S.C.A. § 2811, and Regulations 17 issued pursuant to the statute, the Alcohol Tax United at Atlanta delivered to the appellant its so-called Demand Letter requiring appellant to report sales of sugar and meal in quantities of 100 pounds, malt in quantities of 45 pounds, and other substances in quantities as specified. On June 30, 1954, Alcohol Tax Agents were watching the appellants place of business. The truck here involved was being loaded. The Agents, believing themselves observed, left the scene. They soon returned, and soon after their return the truck they were watching drove away. The Agents followed the truck for some distance, stopped it, seized it and its cargo, and arrested the driver who identified himself as James Travis Morgan, of Atlanta. In the truck were 3000 pounds of sugar, 200 pounds of rye meal and 100 pounds of barley malt. The truck bore a license tag with the number AÅ 38906. On the floor of the cab of the truck and under the seat was a truck license tag with the number AÅ 36927.
