in N. Y. LEGISLATURE

ALBANY, N. Y, March i9.-The New
York Assembly late today. by a vote OF
ii0 to 80, decided to defer action in
definitely on all pending prohibition
bills. The effect OF this procedure, the
leaders explained, is to kill proposals
either to ratify the federal prohibitory
amendment or to provide for a State
wide referendum on the subject unless
one or the other is passed by the Sen
ate. As the latest poll Of the upper
House showed only % for pro-ratlflca-
tion votes when 26 are necessary for
passage, the drys are pessimistic.
