DRY BILL MODIFIED
IN SENATE DRAFT
Would Permit Home MdnufdC-
ture of Wines and Cider.

Washington, Aug. 12.-Prohibition
enforcement legislation advanced an
other step in congress when the SEN
ate judiciary committee received for
consideration the bill passed by the
house last June, as amended and lib
eralized by the judiciary sub-commit-
Tee.
bill, the judiciary committee agreed
to take up the measure next Satur-
day.
Although the general house plan
for enforcement of wartime and con-
stitutional prohibition remain in the
bill, the subcommittee eliminated sew
eral drastic house provisions, and
modified others.
AS revised, the bill will not inter-
fere with the storage and personal
use Of intoXicants in the homes Of
individuals
Probably the most liberal amend
ment to the house bill is a provision
exempting from penalties any person
manufacturing notwithstanding cider
and fruit juices exclusively for use in
his home" This would permit home
manufacture of light wines and cider
for personal consumption. The
amendment, except by implication in
connection with. the definition of in
toxicants, does not define 'non-intOx-
icating" beverages.
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 conyeyances.
Another liberalization is a provis-
ion that reports Of manufacture, sales
and transportation of liquor, made to
the internal revenue collector, shall
not be open to inspection of the gen.
eral public, but kept solely for the
scrutiny of the commissioner, his
agents and court or other officers.
The house search warrant provis-
ion 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.

ISHII HID TREATY,
LANSING TESTIFIES
Concealed Japan's Pact With
England on Shantung,


Washington, Aug. 12.-EXistence
Of the secret treaty between Japan
and Great Britain regarding China's
Shantung peninsula was "cOncealed'
from Secretary of State Lansing by
Viscount Ishii, Japanese ambassador
TO the United States.
Mr.. Lansing so testified before the
senate foreign relations committee.
On September 6, 1917, Mr.. Lansing
said, the negotiations leading up to
the Lansing-Ishii agreement, Viscount
Ishii told him that he had assured
Sir Edward Grey, the British foreign
minister, that Japan would return
Afa6-Ehau to China, "but would have
to retain the German Pacific islands,
because no Japanese government
could stand without retaining them"
t'Did Viscount Ishii make any fur
ther statement regarding the disposi-
tion of German claims in China?" ask
ed Senator Borah, Republican, Idaho.
NO." replied Secretary Lansing.
"But you know now that at the time
Japan had an understanding with
Great Britain for Japanese control of
Kiao-Chau and Ishii concealed that
from the secretary of state of the
United States.
That's the truth"
The secretary said he first heard of
the secret treaties on the subject be-
tween Japan and Graat Britain,
France, Russia, and Italy in February
of this year, at Versailles. He said
he had investigated them Every
thoroughly" and that the secret
treaties never were published.
Mr.. Lansing said neither M. Vivi-
ami, former premier Of France, nor
Mr.. Balfour, foreign secretary of
Great Britain, had mentioned any Sc
cret territorial agreements when they
visited the United States just after
this country went to war. He did not
consider the agreement binding on the
United States.

PLUMB RI. PLAN
CAMP AIGN ISSUE
To Fern Third Party if Both
Old Ones Reject It.
MAY LINE UP DEMOCRATS
It is Admitted That There is No
Help For the Brotherhood Scheme
in Congress.

Washington, Aug. 12.-The Plumb
plan for naturalization of the rail-
roads on a proft-sharing basis for the
workers is dead so far as the present
congress is concerned, but is very
much alive as a political issue before
the public
Railroad brotherhood leaders and
other supporters of the proposal know
that the present congress will not ac-
cept their solution of the railroad
problem. They admit that it cannot
get the support of the house inter-
state commerce committee, and they
are going to divert their activities to
the people and the coming national
political conventions.
1t was positively asserted by men
associated with the government who
favor the Plumb plan that the ma
tionalization issue will be forced into
the Republican and Democratic ma
tional conventions next summer and
that if at least one of the conyen-
tions does not indOrse it in the party
platform a third party will be formed
as sure as fate.
What the supporters of the plan ex-
pect was outlined as this:
That the platform committee of the
Democratic national convention will
submit a majority report indorsing
the Plumb plan and that the conven-
ton will adopt it.
That the Republican platform COM
mittee will reject the Plumb plan, but
that there will be a minority report
fayoring it, the convention to accept
the majority report.
That this will result in new deal
in both parties, with general switch
ing about of voters in their political
allegiance.
If, however, neither of the big par
ties accept the naturalization plan,
leaders declare that nothing can stop
the spontaneous formation of a third
big party, and they feel assured that
labor will rally TO it almost to man
and there will be surprises in store
for old parties after election day.
The plans and predictions of the la

litical situation, and the uppermOst
thought here among political students
is:
"Where will President Wilson stand
on the issue?"
It was learned from an authorita-
tive source that the president is OPP
posed to the Plumb plan. But he is
on record in recent addresses as ad-
vocating that labor should have
share in operation of public utilities
and big interests.
1t is known that some of the lead
ers in the naturalization movement
hope to get the support of the presi-
dent, and they would like to have him
lead the movement. How it will turn
out, of course, cannot be predicted,
but it is believed that the president
will try to reach some basis of COM
promise with labor on the issue, when
conferences on the subject are under
taken with him by the conference on
railroad control organized in Wash
ington.

"The crews of the two universities

selection has been made.
The race will be over a course of
$500 metres down the Seine, starting
at the Pont Royal and finishing at the
Pont de Lialma and passing under four
bridges, including the famous Alexan-

Easily Wins
Squash Title
Champions Speed Battles
H. d.. Bulkley in Colum-
bia Club Tournament
By A. c. Cavagnaro

Jay Gould used his famous Can
nonlike" attack to good effect in de-
feating Harold D. Bulkley for the club
squash tennis championship of the
Columbia Club in the final match of
the tourney, played yesterday. Bulkley
ley found it impossible to contend
with the speed with which his rival
drove the ball around the court. The
score was 15-3, 15-7, 15-4. Gould
succeeds Lyle +. Mahan, champion last
year, who was unable to defend his
honors owing to an injured arm.
While Gould's victory was expected,
it was conjectured that the left-hand
ed Bulkley would offer much opposi-
ton. Bulk ley did at the outset of
each game, but here it was where his
chance of victory faded, as Gould
proceeded to count clusters of six and
seven points. 1t was this sensational
playing in spots by Gould that placed
him in lead which Bulkley never
could overcome. The court tennis
champion counted successively on
Kills" which Bulkley never could get
to the ball. Bulkley's main attack
centred in round the-court game.
Gains Early Advantage
In the opening game Gould, after
considerable fighting, succeeded in
gaining an advantage Of 2 to /. Then
Bulkley braced, but after each had had
had, two hands out, Gould practically
clinched the game by collecting seven
aces in one hand. Bulkley was easily
outplayed during the remainder of the
match, although at times he compelled
Gould to play hard to win a point.
The second game proved the long
est Of the match, and for a time it
looked like Bulkley would capture a
game. An erratic spell on the part of
Gould enabled Bulkley TO assume a
lead of TO 0, but the new champion
then corrected his fault Gould then
changed to smashing game, and soon
had evened matters at 4-all. The play
then became hot, and each man went
to service four times before Gould
thrilled the spectators with a tally
of seven aces in succession. Bulkley
did not give up the fight, forcing
Gould along at his best, but he was
outfought during the remainder of the
game.
Plays Best in Third Game
Gould played even better squash
tennis in the third game Bulkley
showed a determined fight through
out, and was continually finding diff
Guilty in intercepting his opponents
smashing shots.
After less than six hands out, Gould
had leaped away into a advantage of
8 TO- 2, which he quickly augmented
by counts of two and three aces to
clinch the match.
