state before the legislature voted to
repeal statewide prohibition" said SEN
ator Gallinger.
Unfortunately. state legislatures can
be corrupted, and the liquor people
know how to do it,
Senators Explain.
Senator Clark of wyoming an
nounced that he would support the
motion to suspend the rules offered by
Senator Sheppard because the Senate
would be doing in an orderly way what
heretofore it has done in an unorderly
way. He added, however, that his vote
was not to be taken as an indication
of how he would vote upon prohibition
for the District.
Senator's Works of California and
Gronna of North Dakota also an
nounced they would support the Shep-
pard motion. and also that they would
vote for prohibition in the District.
A letter was read by Senator MARITIME
of New Jersey from Charles S. Sim
mons. travelling man. who wrote from
Greenville, S. c. declaring that Sena-
tor MARITIME had been entirely right
when last week he insisted that prohi-
bition was not enforced in Georgia.
Georgia IS joke" and that 1t Is pos
sible to buy all the liquor desired in
Atlanta. Savannah and other places in
Georgia.
A point of order was made by Sen
ator Thomas to the effect that Senator
MARITIME had already spoken twice be-
fore on the pending motion and that
he could not speak a third time. This
took Senator MARITIME off the floor.
Senator Shields of Tennessee then
launched into a defense of prohibition.
Rules Out Tax Amendment.
AS soon as the Sheppard motion had
been disposed of. other amendments
to the District bill wehe considereu.
Senator James of Kentucky offered an
amendment providing that the person
al tax should apply to intangible as
well as to tangible personal property
in the District, including money. cred
its. cash. notes, bonds, stocks. annui-
ties. etc.
A point of order was made against
this, and sustained by the Vice Presi-
dent. on the ground that it was general
legislation on an appropriation bill
Senator Norris of Nebraska then Of
fered his amendment. providing $4,000
to be used in constructing a bathing
beach at the tidal basin. This, too, was
ruled out on point of order.
Senator Norris secured the floor and
made an earnest plea for the utiliza-
ton of the tidal basin as a bath
ing beach. He said the present accom-
modations were disgrace and would
not be tolerated by any other city in
the country.
