House Bill Trimmed.

Stricken from the House bill was
the provision making it unlawful for
persons to be intoxicated or to drink
liquor on trains, street cars, jitneys,
boats or other public conveyances.
Another liberalization is a provi-
sion that reports of manufacture,
sales and transportation of liquor,
made to the internal revenue collec-
tor, shall not be open to inspection of
the general public, but kept solely
for scrutiny of the commissioner, his
agents, court or other officers.
The House search warrant provi-
sion also was made less drastic, the
subcommittee amending the search
and seizure section so as to provide
that search warrants may be issued
only under the usual practice provid-
ed by existing federal law and not on
mere suspicion that liquor is being
stored for unlawful purposes.
Instead of the House bills unlimit-
ed provision for funds to enforce pro-
hibition, the subcommittee fixed 49,
100000 for the first years enforce
ment work, and leaves this duty joint
ly to the internal revenue commits
sioner and the Department of JUS
tice. The former is to report and
the latter to prosecute violations.
In defining intoxicating liquor, the
subcommittee added the following lib
eralizing proviso:
Provided, however, that the FORE
going definition (one-half of one per
cent alcohoD shall not extend to de-
alcoholized wine nor to any liquor or
liquors produced by the process by
which beer, ale or porter is manu-
featured, but containing no more
than one-half of one per cent of alco-
hol, if such liquor or liquid shall be
otherwise denominated than as beer,
ale or porter" This proviso rejects
the request of prohibition advocates
for prohibition of beverages which
have the appearance of intoxicants.
The commercial. (Union City, Tenn.) 190?-193?, 1919-08-15

tions, fiavoring extracts, syrups
vinegar and fruit juices. The sub
committee, however, struck out the
House clause that such articles should
be "nonpotable," prescribing merely
that they shall be unfit for beverage
purposes.
A House clause requiring alcoholic
content of toilet, medicinal and anti
septic articles to be labeled was
stricken out.
Retaining the House provision pro-
hibiting manufacture, sale, purchase,
transportation, or prescription of in
toxicants without a permit from the
internal revenue commissioner, the
revised bill contains provision that
such acts shall be expressly author
lied upon receipt of permits. The
House limit of ten days on permits
to purchase intoxicants also is ex-
tended in the revised bill to 80 days.
Pharmacists only may sell at retail
and licensed physicians only may pre-
scribe liquor. The House require
ment for physical examination by
physicians of applicants for liquor
prescriptions, however, was eliminat-
cd.
The House provision limiting ply
sicians' dispensing to one pint of liq-
uor in ten days for the same person
is retained, but modified to provide
that such limitation shall apply only
to prescriptions "to be taken inter-
nally."
More rigorous provisions guarding
The commercial. (Union City, Tenn.) 190?-193?, 1919-08-15

transactions in wines for sacramento
and religious purposes are provided
by a provision requiring issuance of
such permits only to ministers, rabbis
or other ecclesiastics.
House provisions regarding adver-
Using of beverages are made more
stringent in some respects and more
liberal in others. The subcommittee
struck out provisions prohibiting
signboard bill advertising, but add
ing a clause penalizing advertisement
of intoxicants anywhere, by any
means or method" Also stricken
out was q House clause authorizing
obliteration of liquor advertisement
or the use of pictures of distillery,
bottles, kegs, barrels or other recep-
tacles in advertisements. A new
clause permits manufacturers and
wholesale druggists to advertise al
cohol in trade journals.
Retaining the House provision
against advertisement of compounds,
preparations or formulas for manu-
facture of intoxicants, the subcom-
mittee strengthened this section by
prohibiting also the advertisement of
any "utensil, contrivance or machine"
for such purposes.
After informal discussion of the
revised bill, the judiciary committee
agreed to take up the measure next
Saturday.

SENATE PULLS CLAWS
OF HOUSE PROHI BILL
Judiciary Subcommittee Relaxes
Drastic Provisions.
Relaxes

Washington, Aug. Prohibition
enforcement legislation advanced
another step in Congress when the
Senate judiciary committee began
consideration of the bill passed by
the House last June as amended and
liberalized by the judiciary subcom-
mittee.
Although the general House plan
for endorsements of wartime and
constitutional prohibition remains in
the bill, the subcommittee eliminated
several drastic House provisions and
modified others. In its work, the sub
committee, comprising Senators Ster-
ling, Republican, of South Dakota,
chairman; Fall of New Mexico, and
Norris of Nebraska, Republican, and
Overman of North Carolina, Walsh of
Montana, and King of Utah, Demo
Gratis, first revised the Senate enforce
ment bill and then incorporated their
amendments in the House bill, report
Ing Inc ldIIcI DIS duSuuSu Wy uudhl-
nous vote to the full committee.
Like the House, the Senate subcom-
mittee adopted the plan of having
separate sections in the bill to deal
with wartime and constitutional pro-
hibition.
The subcommittee left unchanged
the House definition of intoxicating
beverages as those containing one
half of one per cent or more of
alcohol.
AS revised, the bill will not inter-
fere with storage and personal use of
intoxicants in the homes of individ
uals.
Probably the most liberal amend
ment to the House bill is provision
exempting from penalties any person
manufacturing Notwithstanding CT
der and fruit juices exclusively for
use in the house." This would per-
NIT home manufacture of light wines
and cider for personal consumption
and the amendment, except by i'm
plication in connection with the def
milton of intoxicats does not define
notwithstanding" beverages.
The commercial. (Union City, Tenn.) 190?-193?, 1919-08-15
Relaxes Property Provision.

Another relaxation of the House
bill was made in its provision for
penalizing persons having reason to
belive" their property is being used
unlawfully. The Senate amendment
requires personal knowledge" of
such use.
The House provision declaring
that after Feb. 1, 1920, the possession
of liquor unauthorized by the law
shall be prima facie evidence that it
is being kept for sale is retained and
strengthened by an addition provid-
ing that, in proceedings under this
section, the burden of proof shall be
on defendants to prove that such
beverages do not contain more than
one-half of one per cent alcohol.
The subcommittee revision retains
the following exemptions, as provided
by the House: Denatured alcohol,
medicinal preparations, patent medi-
cines, toilet and medicinal prepara-
