mer's position with respect to enforce

way been altered by court decisions in
Rhode Island and Kentucky, it was
officially stated at the department OF
Justice The governments contention
that the wartime law is valid, it was
added. will be vigorously defended un-
til final decision has been handed
down by the United States supreme
court.
While enforcement of the law is es-
topped in the two states, United States
district attorneys, acting on prior In
structions. will proceed with prosecu-
tions of violators in other communi-
ties, officials declared.
Department officials differed as to
the result of the injunctions. Some
held that during the life of the re-
straining order there was nothing to
prevent open sales of all intoxicants
as covered by the order. Others did
not agree with this belief.
With regard to the effect on the con-
stitutional amendment by the Ohio ref
erendum overturning the legislatures
action, Attorney General Palmer's
view was said to be that action by
the Ohio electorate would not change
the date on which amendment to the
constitution goes into effect Unless
the number of states ratifylng the
amendment falls below thirty-six the
department will not concern itself
with the changes in their identity, ac-
cording to the opinion expressed by
the officials on Mr.. Palmer's staff.
Reports of a new attack to be made
by anti-prohihitionists in an effort to
stave off constitutional prohibition
have reached the department of JUS
