SHALL NOT SHIP LIQUOR
Pennl Code Amended so ms to Forbid
Shipping to Prohibition states.

WASHINGTON, D. c.. February 10
The liquor question was injected into
the consideration of the criminal code
bill in the Senate to-day. when Senator
Clay. Of Georgia, attacked provision
OF the bill which he declared changed
existing law to the extent of permit
ting the mailing of liquor into prohi-
bition States or counties. This was
brought about by leaving the prohibi-
ton Of that practice out of the law
as revised by the code.
Liquor houses" said Senator Clay
ARE relying upon this change to en-
nance their business"
Mr.. Clay wished to know whether
the commission to revise the code or
the joint committee OF Congress for
the same purpose had left that provis-
Ion ont of the code. and Mr.. Hepburn,
in charge Of the bill said the commit
tee had taken that part of the code
from the commission without change.
After considerable debate, on motion
of Senator Carter. the old law was
substituted for the revised sections,
with a penal clause added.

The real way and effective method

Mr.. Ralney argued was to remove the
tariff OF 10 cents gallon on petroleum.

that whenever particularly nefarious

It rushed for protection to the Repub-

ne said, at tho time when 1t was
threatened with competition In the
United States by Russian oil, had ap-

TO declare for Speaker Cannon, "bc-
