OPINION ON NEW

Washington Oct. 11.-Anticipatins
attacks on the constitutionality of the
war time and constitutional prohibit
ton enforcement legislation. Attorney
General Palmer will prepare an opinion
which will be transmitted to the White
House before the bill becomes law.
Enactment of the legislation was
completed yesterday by congress. The
measure probably will be sent to the
White House Monday. Unless signed
by President Wilson within ten days,
it automatically becomes law.
There appeared to be some doubt at
the White House today whether the
measure would come before the presi-
dent because Of the disinclination of
his physicians to let him transact any
business. Should Mr.. Palmer hold the
measure unconstitutional, it was ex-
pected that it would be referred to the
president for his veto. Otherwise 1t
might be permitted to become law
without the executives signature.

Announcement of Physicians
Sweeps Away All Hope. That
Executive Will Soon Regain
His Normal Health.

Washington, Oct. 11.-Hope that
President Wilson might soon regain
his normal health, and resume fully
his executive duties was swept away
today by physicians who announced
it will be impossible for him to leave
bed for an extended period" They
said, however, there is no interruption
in his slow Improvement.
Under the constitution the vice
president would act as chief executive
in case of the presidents disability
but there is no precedent for such
transfer of authority.
The physicians announcement is
not taken to mean the president will
not be able to sit up in bed and sign
few important bills but those at
tending the president must decide this.
This decision was reached today TT
a consultation with DIR. Francis X
Dercum, Admirals Grayson andi St.tt
and DR.. Sterling Ruffin of this city.
The following bulletin was issued:
White House, Oct. II, 1919, 12:45 D. m
The president shows signs of con-
tfnued improvement, but his condition
is such as to necessitate his rena In
