WASHINGTON, D. C., July 22.-(P)
 The opponents of the prohibition enforcement bill, which was passed by the house of representatives today declare it is so drastic it invites the Presidents veto. A hard fight has been on over the passage of the measure as the dry leaders were de- tcrmined the law should be strict in every way. The anti-prohibitionists were just as determined that the measure should be lenient in some res poets, especially where it concerned individual drinking in the home.
 No intimation has been given as to the Presidents probable action on the measure. When the fight first started indications pointed toward the prohibitionists being defeated in thrii efforts to have stringent law passed but, as the fight progressed. the drys >veloped strength enough to insure the passag, of such bill as they desired.
