WASHINGTON, Dec. 23.-"The
fight for prohibition will go on. II

IL will go on. II WILT must WIN
eventually"
This was the declaration today oi
Rep. Hobson champion OF national
prohibition, following defeat in the
house late last night of his dry res
olution.
i Hobson said the vote OF 1877 votes
for the resolution and lS9 against, al
though 81 votes less than the neces
sary two-thirds for submission OF the
constitutional amendment, was really
a victory and not a defeat. The
"drys" were jubilanl. They declared
the vote clearly indicated the growing
prohibition sentiment which Will
eventually make the nation dry.
A surprising feature of the vote was
the small number who sidestepped-
only 25 representatives being absent
and not paired"
The next move OF the white RIB
boners will be TO place the senate on
record The Sheppard resolution,
similar to the Hobson proposal in the
house, is pending in the upper house
But two Michigan congressman vot
ed against the measure, Reps. Beakes
and Doremrs. Rep. Beakes, however
voted for an amendment proposed by
Republican Leader Mann. who moved
that the words for sale, in the Hobson
resolution, be stricken out. so that In
toxicants could not be made or i'm
ported for any purpose, medicinal OF
otherwise.
Those who stood up as being op
posed TO a roll call vote on this prop
osition, included Messrs. Mapes. kel
ley. Woodruff, Cramton, Macdonald
and Hamilton.
Rep. Beakes explained his seeming
inconsistency in voting against the
Hobson amendment by saying that he
believed the Mann plan would accom-
plssh prohibition, while that OF Hobson
would not.
"Under the Hobson plan, individ'
uals can manufacture intoxicants for
their own consumption, or to give
away" he said. THE only way TO
secure prohibition is to prevent the
manufacture of intoxicants for any
purpose. | also voted against the
Morrison amendment TO prohibit ship
