Washington, Aug. 26.--Nation-w wide
bone dry prohibition, effective July
], 1918, and continuing during the war
at least, loomed today as a strong
probability through compromise neso-
tiations in congress.
An agreement tor passage of legis-
lation to stop sales of all Intoxicating
beverages on that date, leaders of both
wet and dry factions in the senate
stated tonight seemed to be in sight.
President Wilson was represented as
not opposing the legislation and SEN
ators believed the house would accept
the proposal under negotiations A
definite "gentlemen's agreement" in
the senate is expected within few
days
The wartime prohibition bin pend
ing in the senate came up for consid-
Grafton today under the unanimous
consent agreement made several
weeks ago, giving it-right of way un-
til disposed of, but was temporarily
displaced while the senate proceeded
with the manpower bill. Then lead
ers supporting and fighting the pro-
hibtion legislation proceeded with
corridor and cloak room discussions
on the compromise.
Agree TO Postponement.
As it stands now, the bill would
stop sale of intoxicants January l.,
next, At President Wilson's sugges-
ton, according to Senator Sheppard
of Texas, prohibition advocate. post
ponement of the date was agreed to by
spokesmen Of both factions. The pres
ident. 1T was stated, believes additional
time should be given for fiuaneialand
other adjustments.
In today's negotiations most of the
prohibition advocates were agreeable
to fixing July l as the date. They
first insisted that it should be April
/, but a majority were said to have
consented to the latter date. Oppon-
ents of the legislation are declared TO
he convinced that it cannot be de-
feated, and to be satisfied with the
pronosed extension of time.
Formal conclusion of an agreement
is expected to pave the way for the
passage of the bill by the senate late
this week or early next week.
