COHOL LIMIT.
Revised Dry Law Will Not Interfere
With Storage for Personal Use OF
Liquors-Home-Made Wines.

Washington, Aug. 12.-PrOhibition
enforcement legislation advanced an
other step in congress when the senate
judiciary committee began considera-
ton Of the bill passed by the house
last June as revised by a subcom-
mittee.
The subcommittee left unchanged
the house definition Of Intoxicating
beverages rs those containing one-half
of ! per cent or more of alcohol.
AS revised the bill will not interfere
with storage and personal use of in
toxicating liquors in private houses
and eXempts from its penalties any
person manufacturing nonintoXicat-
ing cider and fruit juices exclusively
for use in his house"
This appears TO some 20 permit
home manufacture of light wines and
cider for personal consumption. The
amendment, except by implication in
connection with the definition of intoX-
icants, does not define "nonintoxicat-
ing beverages.
Stricken from the house bill was
the provision making it unlawful for
persons to be intoxicated or to drink
Fliquor on trains, street cars, boats OF
other public conveyances.
The search and seizure sections are
amended to provide that search war
rants may be issued only under the
usual practice provided by existing
federal law and not on mere sus-
picion that liquor is being stored foI
unlawful purposes.
The proviso rejects the request OF
dry advocates for prohibition of bev
erages which have "the appearance
of ~intoXicants.

WILSON SHOWS LEAGUE PLAN
Tells Senators Original American
Proposal Contained Nothing About
the Monroe Doctrine.

Washington, Aug. 13.-The original
tons covenant, sent to the senate for
eign relations committee by President
Wilson, contains several provisions
widely differing from the league GOV.
enant as adopted at Paris.
The much debated provisions of arti-
Gle Y of the present covenant for guar
anteeing the territorial integrity Of
league members Is almost identical
with a clause in the American draft.
The American plan contained no
provision for withdrawal from men,
bership and made no reference to the
Monroe doctrine. 1t also contained a
provision not finally accepted under
which the league would inquire into
the feasibility Of abolishing compul-
sorry military service.
President Wilson refused to send
the senate a copy of General Bliss
statement concerning the Shantung
settlement, on the ground that it con-
tanned confidential reference to other
governments.
President Wilson also Informed the
senate in response to another resolu-
ton that he vas happy to say" that
he had no memorandum or infOrma-
ton with reference to any attempt of
the Japanese delegates at Paris to in.
