The copper era and Morenci leader., 1917-02-23

Every effort to change the amend. ment was defeated overwhelmingly Cries of Bone dry'' rang throughout the house and the sentiment swept the house until the last vote for concur renee was cast. Members who at tempted to explain that they were pro hibitionists at heart but stood for states rights were greeted with laugh ter.
 Most Far Reaching
 The amendment, incomparably the most far reaching prohibition legisla tion ever approved by either house of congress, would raise an absolute bar rier against the shipment of liquor in to fifteen states, where it can be i'm ported legally now and where mil lions of dollars worth is consumed an- nually. It would add to the bone dry territory about one-third of con- tinental United States.
 Of the twenty-two states which will be prohibition territory on July 1, when the amendment would be effec- tive, only eight have forbidden impor- tation of intoXicants for personal use The fourteen around which the provis- ion would erect a non-importation bar rier are Alabama, Colorado, Georgia, Iowa, Maine, Mississippi, Nebraska, North Dakota, North Carolina, Okla homa, South Carolina, South Dakota, Virginia and West Virginia. Most of these have set no limitation on the amount that can be brought in for in- dividual use, but in several cases the amendment would nullify directly state statutes expressly permitting i'm portation of stipulated amounts per capita.
 In addition, Michigan, Montana and Indiana have enacted prohibition laws which will put them into the prohibi- tion column subject to the provisions of the Reed amendment
 Only Step Taken. The amendment marks sVirtually the only step taken by the federal govern ment aside from the internal revenue laws to extend it's control over the li- quor traffic throughout the states. It is the only special federal force to state regulations by providing that DO lliquor shall be imported into states

DISTINCT GERMAN FLAVOR
British View Of Peace Proposals From
the Vatican.

London Aug. 16.-"These so called
terms have a distinct German flavor"
This reply was given i'm an authorita-
tive quarter in London in reply to a
question In regard to the Vatican pro-
posals.
The opinion was expressed that the
inspiration for the peace move prob
ably emanated from Austria and was
in the nature OF a trial balloon, as a
prelude to more definite propositions
from the central powers.
The peace pron,nciamento of Pope
Benedict was IN entire surprise to
the British public. Whether or not
IL was a surprise to the government
cannot be learned.
The pope's offer did not even con.
stitute q newspaper sensation. While
some afternoon papers gave 1t their
largest headlines others printed IL
merely as a paragraph among the
secondary news items OF the day.
