RACE IN OTHER STATES
TO SWING AMENDMENT

Washington, Jan. lG-Several State
Assemblies now IN session are expected to
take acton at once, on the prohibition
amendment, with probable race between
Nebraska, Missouri and Minnesota AS tn
which shall be the thirty-sixth on the list.
u he ratification completed Yesterday by
the Legislatures of Iowa, Colorado, Ore
gon, New Hampshire and Utah make
n total Of twelve States in two days.
OF the thirty-hve States that have taken
action, only fourteen have certified their
action to the Federal State Department
They are Virginia, Kentucky, North Da-
kota, South Carolina, Maryland, South
Dakota, Texas, Montana, Delaware,
Massachusetts, Arizona, Georgia, Lou
is,ana and Michigan
While the amendment, under its pro-
visions, becomes effective one year from
the date of its final ratification. addi-
tional legislation by Congress is neces-
sary to make it operative, and ground
work for this already has been laid
This legislation will prescribe penalties
for violations of the amendment and de
termine how and by what agencies the
law shall be enforced.
Court action to prevent the amend
ment becoming operative already has
been started in California, where an
order temporarily restraining Governor
Stephens from signing ratification of
the amendment has been obtained. IL
has been intimatcd that similar action
NAV be taken in other States IN which,
IT IL said, State laws require that Fed
eral constitutional amendments must
hc submitted to referendum.
