Drys Demand Night
Session to Dispose
of Liquor Measure

Washington, July 19.-Before the
house resumed consideration today OF
the prohibition enforcement bill, one
part of which already has been perfect
ed. dry leaders announced they would
insist on q night session in the hope OF
letting the country know thru the Sun
day morning papers that the measure
with its drastic provisions had been
passed and was ready for the senate.
Some of the leaders made no at
tempt to conceal the fact they were
insensed at the failure to keep the
house at work last night after fighting
nearly six hours over daylight saving.
There are three parts to the bill. The
first, relating to enforcement OF the
wartime act, stood it's ground against
amendments, and debate today was
expecteA to be confined to the second
part, which deals with enforcement OF
the law during the long dry period to
begin next January. The third part,
relating to the manufacture and sale Of
Industrial alcohol, is not expected to
provoke much discussion.
First on the program today was the
question Of amendments to the flavor
ing extract section, half dozen OF
which were introduced by Chairman
Volstead. y
Radical prohibition members were
ready to fight for changes in that part
Of the bill which would permit a sick
man, with the aid Of a physician, to
get as much as one quart Of liquor a
month. They said it was too much.
Chairman Volstead, however, was pre-
pared to resist any attempt to cut down
the sick mans share.
