Wine AND BEER MEASURE
INTRODUCED IN SENATE
Measure Would Repeal War Time Dry
Act as it Applies to
These.

Observation-Disclosures for repeal
of the wartime prohibition act, insofar
as it relates to wines and beer, and
for enforcement of that act, as we'll
as the constitutional amendment, were
introduced Friday in the senate by
Senator Pheian of California.
Bills enforcing wartime and consti-
tutional prohibition were introduced
by Senators Sheppard, democrat, of
Texas, and Jones, republican, of Wash.
ingtOn.
Senator Sheppard's bill provides for
separate commissioner Of prohibit
ton, with force of assistants.
In the Sheppard bill liquor is de-
fined as including "any distilled malt,
spirituOus, yinOuS, fermented or alcO-
holic liquor, and all alcoholic liquids
and compounds, whether medicated,
proprietary, patented or not"
Beverages Exempted.
Manufacture of cider for use in
making vinegar and intoxicants for
beverage purposes held in residences,
provided they were purchased before
the measure became effective, are eX-
empted from the provisions OF the
measure, as is also the sale OF alcO-
holic patent or proprietary medicines
which are non-potable and not capable
of being used for beverage purposes.
Cognizance of the airplane is taken
by the BILL which prohibits transporta-
ton of intoxicants by that means as
we'll as by common carriers.
Another provision of the measure
prohibits the advertisement of liquor
in newspapers, on signboards or by
any other means, and also prohibits
ANY advertisement or notice contain
ing the picture of brewery, distillery,
bottle, keg, barrel or box or other re-
ceptacle represented as containing in.
toxicating liquors or designed as an
advertisement thereof.
Drinking in Public.
Drinking of intoxicating liquors in
all public conveyances and in automo-
biles would be prohibited under the
act, which provides that in cases
where persons are injured or killed by
drunken persons suits for damages can
be brought against those who either
sold or gave that person the liquor.
Persons who have stored quantities
of liquors in their own homes in prep
aration for the long dry spell would
be safe from molestation, as the act
provides that search warrants can not
be issued,
Penalties ranging from $500 to
$1,000 fine, with Imprisonment Of not
less than 80 days nor more than u
months, would be prescribed and 49,
100000 would be appropriated for the
enforcement of the act during the fis-
al year 1920.

Tariff Revision.

Nevertheless, there are parts of our
tariff system which need prompt at

have made it plain that in some cases
too great reliance on foreign supply is
dangerous, and that in determining
certain parts of our tariff policy do
nestle considerations must be borne
in mind which are political as well as
economic. Among the industries to
which special consideration should be
given is that Of the manufacture of
dyestuffs and related chemicals. Our
complete dependence upon German
supplies before the war made the In
