The Webb Bill
Becomes a Law,

Washington, Mar. BY a vote of
244 to 95, the House, Saturday, re-
passed over the Presidents veto, the
Webb bill prohibiting shipments of
intoxicating liquors into "urs" states.
The Senate passed it over the Veto
last night, by a wide margin over the
necessary twothirds, and the bill now
becomes law.
Only one other time in the last Is
years has Congress overridden Pres
identia veto. That was when the
Rainy River Dam bill was passed over
President Roosevelts disapproval.
Representatives Clayton and Webb,
leading supporters of the measure in
the House, declaring their belief In its
constitutionality, led the fight In the
House to follow the example of the up
per body's action.
President Taft bases his veto al
most entirely upon the ground that
the bill was unconstitutional in that
it virtually delegated to the states
control of interstate traffic in liquor
when. he held that control is vested
solely in Congress. Attorney General
Wickersham had given an opinion also
holding the bill unconstitutional. The
President forwarded it To the Senate,
yesterday. with his veto message.
The Senate re-passed the bill
promptly, Friday night, and, early
Saturday, House leaders favoring the
measure, led by Representative Clay
ton, chairman of the judiciary com
mittee. and Representative Web, one
of the trainers. began working for an
immediate repassage. Debate was
limited and the House re- passed the
bill with a wide margin over the ne
cessary two thirds vote, as the Senate
had done.
Supporters of the bill say 1t will
make effective the prohibition laws of
dry states, which, they say, now are
violated because intoxicants are ship
ped in to private individuals, and have
the effect of multiplying the local laws.

Aside from the seanCn's bill in the

NAVAL HlLLaTo CONFERENCE.
House Refuses to Allow the Two Bat :.
tleship Program.

Washington, March 1.-The naval appro-
prlation bill. with the Senate amendment
to authorize two battleships, was sent to
conference by the House, Saturday, after
a short but lively debate
Representative Padgett of Tennessee,
chairman of the naval affairs committee,
called up the bill and vainly sought to
have vote on the battleship program
before the measure went into conference
The House had voted for one battleship
and the bill, footing up about s1SS, 600. 600
as it passed the House, was increased to
approximately $4,000 by the Senate,
which carried the two battleships pro-
gram
The two battleship men and the econo-
my advocates Joined in the debate, the
upshot of which was that the House by
unanimous consent disagreed to the Sem
ate amendments and sent the bill to con-
ference with Representatives Padgett of
Tennessee Gregg of Texas and ross OF
Illinois: and Senators Perkins. Penrose
and Tillman as conferees.

Session Extendinn

gre Is little hope of final adj
jouInnacnt before the last of March,
and il now seems probable that the
session may extend into the early part
of April.
The three big measures. the good
roads bill, the act to provide for a
public utilities commission and the
workmen's compensation act. still re-
main in the committees. 1t all will
depend upon reception of reports from
these bodies. when the measures make
their appearance in House or Senate,
WHITTIER adjournment will come this
week.
The public utilities bill has been
completed by the subcommittee APP
pointed to draft it after long hear
ings. The committees of judiciary
and legal affairs will meet to consider
the new draft, early this week, and
will report at once.
This new draft adheres very CLOSELY
to the provisions of the Wisconsin
law. or to the bill introduced BY Rep.
Alton G. Wheeler of South Paris.
The prospects for this measure are
said TO be excellent and any serious
opposition is unlikely.
