MAY MOVE CHANGE
IN DRY PROVISION
Prohibition Leaders in Senate
Considering Alteration Of
Norris Amendment.

Efforts to reopen the whole prohibi-
tion question before the Senate agri-
cultural committee, with view to re-
ducing the period Of one year now
provided in the pending Norris amend
ment to the emergency agricultural
appropriation bill during which the
sale of whisky and wine would be per-
mitted, are being made by prohibition
leaders.
Unless the coming recess OF Con-
sress prevents the prohibition ques-
ton from coming up In the Senate un-
til after that body reconvenes, plans
are being made to call the committee
together within the next few days to
reconsider it's previous action.
Effect Of Norris Amendment.
As reported to the Senate by the
committee the Norris amendment pro-
hibits the sale of distilled spirits or
their removal from bond except for
export purposes. and the manufacture
of wine, except for export. after June
80, 1919. The measure also prohibits
the manufacture of beer three months
after approval of the act by the Presi-
dent.
Declaring that this measure causes
undue discrimination between the
manufacturers of the various intoxi-
eating liquors, Senator Norris OF Ne
braska, author OF the amendment:
Senator Kendrick Of Wyoming and
other prohibition leaders now believe
that the period named in the bill
should be fixed at six months for
whisky. wine and beer.
Views Of Food Administrator.
Food Administrator Hoover. 1t IL un-
derstood. has informed members of the
committee that brewers maintain an ex-
cess Of three months supply Of malt
under process Of production. and to stop
the making Of beer three months after
enactment of the measure would cause
them financial loss. II also 10 claimed
that fixing the period at six months for
wine would give wine grape growers
sufficient time to dispose Of their present
crop.
Prohibition leaders declare the agri-
cultural committee 10 overwhelmingly
in favor Of national prohibition. and
they do not anticipate any formidable
opposition to a reduction in the time
when the production and sale Of liquor
would be stopped.

ing the enactment into law OF the Dis
