HOUSE TO RENEW DRY
LAW DEBATE TODAY
Vets Lose Every Skirmish in
Violent Prohibition
Discussion
NO RED TAPE FOR CHURCHES
BY the Associated Press

Washington. July 1S.-Although tn,
agricultural appropriation bill had right
OF way. House leaders expected late
today to resume debate on the prohibi
tion enforcement legislation
At the session yesterday. lasting late
into the night. that portion Of the
measure relating to wartime prohibition
was completed and the debate now
centers on the section Of the bill car
rying provisions for enforcing consti .
tutional prohibition. which becomes
effective next January.
All amendments intended to eliminate
the more drastic provisions Of the gen
eral enforcement measure were voted
down yesterday by overwhelming ma
jorities and so strongly in coutrol were
the "drys' that debate was shut off
despite the violent protests Of the
minority.
Discussion continued to bc bitter and
the chamber was in confusion when
adjournment was taken at 10 o clock.
At that time it had before it series
of amendments offered by Chairman
Nolstead relating to 1avoring extracts.
Members were not familiar with this
phase of the controversy and it was
agreed to have the proposed amend =
ments printed in the record for their
enlightenment.
Regulations just issued by the Bu
reau Of Internal Revenue afford every
religious organization in the United
States opportunity TO obtain wine for
sacramenta purposes.
I'VE have cndeavOred to cut out all
red tape. Deputy Commissioner
Gaylord said. and have made the reg
ulations easy for bonafdo organizations
to follow.
!, When sacramental wines are produced
. and distributed under clerical super
vision, as in certain monasterics of the
: Roman Catholic Church. the usual in
ternal revenue tax must be paid and
accurate records kept Of all shipments.
In case of purchases Of wine from
dealers not under church supervision
the bureau expressed preference that
an affidavit of the use to which the wine
was to be put accompany the order for
the protection of both the seller and
the purchaser. Churches not having
hierarchal organizations will obtain
wine on the application of the minister
or duly authorized officer of the con
gregation.
Jewish congregations. each of which
is separate entity under no superior
prelate, will obtain wine for their serv
ices on application of the rabbi The
historic mead. brewed from grapes and
honey. will continue to be used in the
Passover feast. The bureau has ruled,
contrary to erroneous reports that
mead was prohibited. that the drink
may be made in accordance with an
cient custom in the homes Of Jewish
families when intended for use in the
religious festival
