Republican A. p. Leased Wirel


 WASHINGTON, June 6.-Arguments for repeal of war time prohibition and for legislation for drastic enforcement of that and constitutional prohibition were heard today by the house judici- ary committee.
 Representative Sabbath, democrat, Illinois. in favoring repeal of the war time act, contended that dealers should have had at least a year in which to close up their business. He urged the committee to interview soldiers bacl. from the front, investigate conditions in the larger cities, and not to be in formed by professional prohibition ists.''
 Wayne E. Wheeler, counsel for the Anti Saloon league, discussed legal phases of the bill for enforcement of prohibition. now before the committee
 In the course of an extended argu- ment. MT. Wheeler was questioned by Representative Igoe. democrat of Mis- souri, and others as to what might happen if certain states permitted the manufacture Of 234 per cent beer should the amount of alcohol to be used for beverage purposes be limited under the constitutional amendment tc one-half of one per cent The fedora ' law. he contended, undoubtedly would be enforced
 It was the intent of the amendment he declared, to wipe out the liquo1 i traffic, which has no inherent right i to exist" and the only difficulty ahead i would come when Q state attempted 1 to permit something which the consti- i tuition prohibited.
 ! When that comes," he added. "wt will meet it in the courts" MT. Wheeler was asked to give tht position of the Anti Saloon league Cr i the question of refunding dealers taxel 1 paid on liquors they had no oppol tunity to sell
 This is a matter which does no concern us: it is more a question O policy for the government" he replied Every liquor dealer who goes int, business does so with the knowledg that his so-called property rights ca1 be taken from him and that he has n | redress But 1 want to say that VI have no desire to destroy the proper ty he is unable to sell when this lay becomes effective so long as we ar sure it cannot be turned into bev erages."

EUROPE At a Glance
By the Associated Press

Germany will know the decision of the peace conference on her counter proposals to the treaty by Thursday or Friday of next week, according to the latest dispatches from Paris.
 It is understood the allied and asso- ciated governments have decided to adopt middle course as between the fixing of definitne sum to be exacted from Germany, q proceeding strenu- ously objected to by the French as likely to lead to @ political upheaval due to the disappointment of the French public, and the provisions of the draft of the treaty handed the Germans, which the latter have declared means economic slavery. The reparations to be demanded for certain forms of allied claims will be made known to the Germans. but not all of them, as the only sum for the total losses which the French have declared themselves will ing to agree to amounts to @ figure the experts declare Germany will be un- able to pay.
 It is probable the Germans will be allowed some working capital and ton mage for overseas trade with which to earn the sums required of them.
 The clauses of the treaty concerning responsibilities, punishment of the former kaiser, and the disposition of l Germany's overseas colonies likely will stand as set forth in the original draft of the treaty. while a plebescite in up 1 per Silesia with regard to the future sovereignty of the district is believed | to have been decided upon.
 President Wilson. interviewed by a Paris newspaper Friday, declared his conviction that the peace treaty hand ed the Germans violates none of his principles and conforms in it's entirety with his fourteen points.
 Copenhagen dispatches report that part of the Bulgarian army has beer mobilized and is advancing on the Ser bian frontier. No confirmation of this has been received.
 Apparently the government of Ad- miral Kalchall will be recognized. Kol- chaks reply to the conditions i'm posed upon such recognition has beer ceived in Paris and is understood to be satisfactory

GERMANS HOPEFUL
 ON PEACE TERMS

BERLIN, Thursday, June 5.-(By the Associated Press While the German correspondents at Versailles continue to take a gloomy view of the French forthcoming answer to the German counter proposals, official circles in Berlin. judged wholly by surface indi- cations, appear more hopeful
 Political observers here believe that Count Brockdorff- Rantzau holds a slight strategic advantage for reasons outside those that might be contained in his counter proposals.
 The trace of optimism is explained by events which it is believed here will ul- timately work out to Count Von -Rantzau's advantage. These factors are to be found in the Paris strike, fresh Polish ggrandisement, French machinations in Rhenish Prus- sia, and the reported American and British opposition to the entente terms.
 German optimism is by no means overreaching itself. Ii is based, rather. on the expectation that in view of the liberality and boldness of the German counter draft, the entente leaders will not dare to assume the moral responsi- | bility of slamming the door in the face Of the German envoys
