PROHIBITION GOES OVER, FINAL ACTION
 LIKELY THIS WEEK
Republican A. p. Leased Wire1

WASHINGTON. Aug. 31.-Opposi- tion to items in the emergency agri- cultural appropriation bill carrying the amendment for national prohibition be- ginning next July prevented the Sen ate from disposing of the measure to- day and postpone final action until next week.
 The measure. according to arrange ments made late today by Senate lead CTS will not be called up again until Tuesday, as Monday is a holiday and the only business proposed then is memorial services for the late Senator Newlards, of Nevada.
 Attacks Food Administration
 Senator Kenyon, of Iowa, proposed to strike out items in the bill aggre- gating more than $500, 900 which he said are totally unnecessary in stimulat- ing food production. Senator J ohnson, of South Dakota, said the measure proposed an extravagant outlay and he could support it only because of tho prohibition provision.
 Failure of the food administration to prevent extortion was charged by Senator Sherman, of Illinois, who said the administration only real attempts were in regulating flour and few other prices.

Lightning Hits lRamcher Who Is

c. G. Dull, who lives mile and half east of Central avenue on Ms souri avenue, was struck by light ming while blowing in a field yes terday morning about 9:3o o'clock and while he was knocked uncon- scious by the shock, suffered no vIs- ible marks and is believed by the attending physician, pr. kImba'l Bannister, to have sustained no per manent injury. Mrs. Dull found her husband about five minutes after the bolt from the clouds had struck him. He was then slowly regalnIne consciousness and she at once sum moned the doctor.
 In spite of the electrical storms which are frequent in the northern part of Arizona it is said, and recent statistics sustain this contention, that injury and death from lightning is almost unknown in this state. However, Mr. Dull is the second man known to have been struck by lightning in Arizona this year though the weather bureau records for Arizona for some years past fail to show any similar accidents.
