The Board of Trade last might, at

recting its officers to present such a
request to Congress.
Members Of the board also listened
to a plea from Vice President Mar

that will preclude the possibility of
invasion, and cheered Congressman
James T. Lloyd's declaration that he
settle so definitely the taxation ques-

no further occasion to deal with the
subject for many years.

While the referendum resolution
expressly stated that 1t was not the

acting upon the measure to put itself

the adoption of either prohibition or
