ALLEGED FLAW IN
DRY AMENDMENT
Attorney Claims Congress and the
States Cannot Act Concurrantly
New Law Necessary.

CHICAGO, April % Practicability of
enforcing the national prohibition amend
ment by concurrent power Of congress
and the states, was questioned yesterday
at a meeting of the distillers' committee
in charge OF the distIllng industry's fight
against prohibition
The point was raised in an opinion sub
mitted by Levi Mayer, counsel for the
committee, following reports that refer.
endum petitions had been filed, were IN
process of fling, or vero in circulation in
Ohio, Missouri California, Washington
OREGON, Nevada, New Mexico, Nebraska
Oklahoma, Arkansas, Colorado, Michigan
and AIaut
In my opinion Section l OF the amend
ment is not self-executing and until legis
ation has been enacted to enforce The
amendment, the latter will have no eftec
and Will be practically dead letter,
said the opinion, which added that tina
was confirmed by the next section whici
expressly provided for enforcement b,
stating that Congress and the sevefa
states shall have concurrent power to en-
force this article by appropriate legls
lation'
1T IS of course impossible for congress
and the legislatures Of As states to ac
iointly-that is, coucurrantly. The cor
gressional and legislative wills Of congress
and the IS different legislatures, if nc
exercised in the same identical way vi
lead to con 'usion and is almost inccmpr
honsibe
Furthermore, if any Of the 4S stat,
act in a way different from that in whic
congress may legis.ate or if congress le
islates first and the states Subsequent

gress thereafter and the provisions
such legislation are not identical, the co.

A Living Room That Sings.

Set the stage for cheerfulness all about
your home;
Shift the scene for happiness, and more
Of it viii come.
Build the windows high and wide; make
the woodwork white;
Use the sort of draperies that seem to
give off light;
Throw away the sombre stuff, leave no
place for gloom;
Coziness is stufiness-let the light have
rooms
Have crate with camel in, or fireplace
with logs;
Make home that always smiles through
rains or SHOWS or fogs;
Clothe the walls in pink-shot gray with
limited leaves and birds
Fill the place with joyfulness more elo-
quents than words,
Build it SO, no matter how the world may
shape your day,
You can hurry home again and still De
blithe and gay.
Moods are from environment, not from
deeper things
Who could nurse grievance in living
room that sings?
Set your stage for happiness; write nc
cues for frets;
Cheerfulne.s, invited in, viii never send
regrets"

NEW YORK, Nov. 25.-Trading on the stock exchange today was rela- lively dull and professional, there be- ing little evidence of public partici- patton.
 The market drifted aimlessly, but mainly upward, especially among those issues whech experienced the greatest shrinkage in the liquidating movements of the past fortnight
 There were exceptions to the ad- vance, of which rails, coppers. ana local utilities were the most conspi- cuous examples. Reasons for the backwardness of these groups were so obvious as to excite little comment.
 Easy money reduced tension in the foreign exchange situation and other factors which served in the price ad' justment of the last few days were again operative, but in more moderate degree.
 Pools seemed to have little difficult ty in advancing the motors and their subsidiaries, also steels, equipments, oils, tobaccos and feathers. General Motors was the outstanding feature at an extreme rise of 29 points gains else where ranging from to 10 points. Sales amounted to 1,O5O,O0O shares.
 The entire bond market was reac- tionary, several new low records being made by Liberty issues. with extreme weakness in local fractions. Total sales, par value, s22,5OO,0Oo, an unusu ally heavy turnover. Old United States bonds were unchanged on call
