PROHIBITION BILL
UNCONSTITUTIONAL
on Wartime Liquor
Act Given BY Elihu
Root and Others.

Washington-The wartime prohibit
lion enforcement bill recently passed
nv the house, and now pending before
senate committee, is unCOnstitution-
al, according to an opinion by Elihu
Root, William D. Guthrie and William
L. Marbury, counsel for the United
States Brewers Association, made
public this week.
This opinion holds that until the
eighteenth amendment becomes eff
,ective on Jan. 16, 1920, congress, I'M
Ter we'll settled rules Of constitutions
al law, has no express power to pro,
hibit the manufacture and sale OF
6eer. whether or not intoxicating.
There is now no valid reason for the
wartime prohibition act, the lawyers
leclare, and there is no evidence, they
add, to support the claim that the pro
posed enforcement measure is neces-
sary or proper to conserve the ma,
ions food supply.

nent dealing with all legal phases Of

have replaced few blouseS with these
newer garments. The sm0Ck has not
arrived at the place where it rivals
the blouse in popularity, but its adj
vance toward that stage has caused
blOusemakerS to consider it and to
adapt their designs to it's lines. A
great many Of the new blOuSes have q
peplum and very loose girdle at the
waist so that they are very close kin
to the smocks that have no waistline
other than that made by loose cord
or narrow girdle placed In the most
casual manner possible.
Among the blouses that extend be-
low the waistline and some inches
over the skirt there are many that
have this extension only at the back
and front, like those shown in the
picture above. They carry strong
suggestion Of the smOCk, and stout
women like them because they make
the figure look more slender than
those blouses that have a peplum or
the smock.

dark blue geOrgette with q very mar
