S. Was Ready.
Berlin, Nov. 7.-lDr. Alfred thinner
man, secretary for foreign affairs dur
ing the war, caused a wild sensation
during today's sessions OF the national
assembly committee investigating the
war when he admitted the German au-
thorities had been suspicious that
their code, which was known by an
American, was betrayed by the United
States government.
Count Bcrnstorff, asked regarding
the code, at first said he could not
swear that wireless messages received
in America had been kept from the
entente Later he said under oath that
he never knew of such treason. He
declared Germany had a difficult and
dangerous cable route through neutral
countries, but that messages had been
concealed as commercial dispatches.
The submarine warcfare came into
the investigation again today. Vice Ad-
miral von Capielle, one of the advo-
Gates OF the submarine campaign. said
the U-b0ats had not been able to get
at American transports because each
submarine covered a limited circle
around England and the whole ocean
could not be patrolled. Various Brit
ish and American Inventions, like the

THE LAW ON LIQUOR.
How tho Khiskey Situation Stands at
tie Present Wine.

Tile IfcSenC 1lWes
(Sassary, in the Baltimore Sum-
Washington, Oct S.--Becausc of the
confusion which exists in many minds
over the status Of prohibition legisla-
ton in the light Of recent enactments,
vetoes, etc., a few plain statements of
fact regarding the situation might
prove enlightening.
First OF all, the nationwide consti-
tutional amendment, ratified by the
necessary three-fourths Of the States,
on January 1G. 1919, will go into eff
feet on January 16, 1920.
Under this announcement the man
ufaoturc, importation and sale Of in
toxicating liquors for beverage pur-
poses will be forever barred.
Enforcement legislation has now
been enacted by Congress providing
that any spurious, vinous or malt H.
quor containing more than onc-half
Of 1 per cent Of alcohol shall be re-
gardcd as intoxicating.
Meanwhile statutory wartime prohi-
bition, enacted just before the armis-
tice was signed, went into effect last
July 1st.
This legislation is to remain in cf-
feet until the President by executive
proclamation declares that the army
has been demobilizcd and peace has
returned
In an announcement to the country
today the President gave notice that
upon the ratification Of the treaty OF
peace with Germany, he would lift
the wartime prohibition ban against
the sale Of liquor, not waiting for the
ratification Of the treaty with Aus
tria.
Until this comes to pass, however
wartime prohibition will remain III
operation and enforcement Legislation
has now gone into effect which puts
the country upon a straight bone-dry
basis
This enforcement legislation was
passed by Congress 12 days ago, sen
to the White House and yesterday wa:
vetoed by the President.
Three hours later the house, by {
vote of 176 to SIS, passed the enforce
ment measure over the presidential
veto and this afternoon the Senate
override the veto by a vote Of 65 t.
20.
Enforcement legislation, therefore
is to be delayed no longer and th'
machinery for carrying out the Law
is automatically transferred from tn
Department Of Justice to the Burea,
Of Internal Revenue, Treasury De
partment.
II the veto had been sustained i
either house of Congress the enforce
mcnt legislation would have bee
dead and the two bodies would hav
had to begin the reconstruction Of a
entirely new measure.
The wartime prohibition act a
originally passed provided no lega
definition for the term "intoXicatin
liquors" and certain federal court:
notably that in Baltimore, ruled tina
2.75 per cent beer was not intoXica'
ing and, therefore. not prohibited.
The enforcement act, however, {
, fines liquor as that having an alec
, h0lc content Of more than one-ha
Of 1 per cent and the court decision
were wiped out when the Senate COZ

What was regarded in many quarters

also was the subject of much talk
among the committeeman and their

urged him TO become a candidate. They
declared a more thorough organization
soon would be perfected, claiming to
have received pledges of support from
a number of other states.
Senator Watson has announced he
was not candidate for the presidency
