Jay CLAUSE DEFEAT IS iG-
NoREo WHEN cRAeBE BILL
is ENROLLED.
Possibility Of a Fresh Legislative
Scandal, RiyaIing That OF the Al
legged Forgery on the Prohibition
Ratification Resolution Was Seen.

Western Newspaper Union News Service.
Columbus, Ohio.-Possibility of a
fresh legislative scandal, rivaling that
of the alleged forgery on the prohi-
bition ratification resolution, is
seen. The discovery may indicate
new development IN the scheme TO
force the Crabbe prohibition enforce
ment bill ON to the citizens Of the
state without giving them an oppor-
tunity to vote. 1t was learned that
the Crabbe bill, passed by the Senate
Tuesday, was sent as message to
the House of Representatives with
the emergency clause attached. The
emergency clause was defeated In the
Senate, lacking the necessary two
thirds vote. 1t is recorded, however,
as one Of the following amendments
in which the concurrence OF the House
IL requested" The House concurred
in the amendments, ignorant of the
messages terms. This Is considered

their claim that the emergency clause
does not require two-thirds vote to
have some standing In Court. Unless
the matter Is adjusted II may be nee
essary for mn Executive veto to be
lodged against the entire act, for
whether there has been an oversight
o. an instance of deliberate falsifica-
ton, similar to the alleged forgery OF
the name Of former Secretary OF
State william ID. Fnlton. can not AT
this time be ascertained. Protests
probably will he placed on the Jour
nails as soon as the General Assembly
reconvencs.
There Is more than u possibility
that the Eighty-third General Assem-
bly, will be known ms the body that
never ceased. The branches have rc-
ccssed for period of two weeks, and
now plan To spend at least week on
their final work. Many things still
ure to be done In that time, but final
adjournment rests with powers out.

The depth of permanently frozen soil
