California Obstructs

SACRAMENTO, Cal, Jan. 13-The California legislature completed rati- fication tonight, of the proposed fed oral prohibition amendment. when the assembly adopted a resolution, already approved by the senate. The vote was 4S to 2S.
 A member of anti-ratification forces changed his vote from no to aye, and moved for a reconsideration of the resolution. This action will auto matically prevent the governor from certifying the proposed amendment to Secretary of State Lansing, until re- consideration of the vote is disposed Of and this is expected before the end of the week. The prohibition members declared that the proposed reconsider atCn would fail to change a single Vote
 Bismarck Bruck, leader of the as sembly ti-ratificationists, said to- night he would introduce a bill prOvid ing for compensation for California wine grape growers, whose loss be- cause of bone dry" prohibition would be s100.000,000, he said
 Sharp clashes between speakers over charges of use of outside influ- ence on members of the assembly fea- tured the session.
 California voters returned substan- tial majorities last November against both "bone dry prohibition and li- quor regulation.

NEW YORK. Jan. 13.-The most em- phatic answer the Young Mems Christ ian Association can make to charges G4 Lrofiteering which have been made by returning soldiers is that the organiza- ton has distributed free $1.400,000 worth of canteen supplies, William Sloane, chairman of the organizations national war work council, said in statement issued here today.
 This total, he said, is exclusive of a loss of $3S2,181 in operating soldiers stores in Great Britain. MT. Sloane said his statement was based on a cabled report from E. C. Carter, chief secretary of the organization in Paris, and that the figures do not include the post exchange deficit for November and December.
 Asserting that army officials had preferred to have canteen service run on a cost basis because they did not wish to have the soldier feel that he was being pauperiZed," Mir. Sloane said that even excluding rentals and clerk hire, for which no charge was made the r. M. C. A. conducted it's canteens at an actual loss.
 1 Supplies distributed free up to Oc- tober 31 last, he said, amounted tC 1 S512.110 and the November total was estimated at $1S3,4S6. The Christmas program. which included distribution
 to every fighting man overseas of a gift comprising two packages of cigar cites. can of tobacco, a package ot ] chewing gum five Christmas cards an6
 a bag of candy, was estimated to have
 cost s700,000. Mr. Sloane said. Free use of athletic supplies and free entertainments were not included ir | the grand total. he said. Another item | excluded from the total was S600,00( appropriated by the council for a si2
 months supply of stationery. MT l Sloane added that in November alone
