ION 10 ESTABLISH Wu6JnSL Intoxicating
beverages prescribed by law includ-
| ing those having less than 2 "a per
cent alcohol"
Washington, July 1.-THE whole
nation awoke today to a realization
of prohibition. The Punishment Of
the "eye-opener" at the bar, long ago
forgotten in many parts of the coun-
trv was all-embracing, Only those
yho had been proyident enough to
stock up" in advance for the long
drought. or who could find solace in
u "a per cent brew were able to
carry out the time-honored custom of
starting the day with an early morn
ing "bracer."
Wartime prohibition, banning for
the time being all distilled liquors,
and leaving in a cloud Of doubt the
future of beer, was effective at mid
night.
Exemption for beer from the list Of
forbidden beverages came as a result
of an eleventh hour announcement
by the department of justice that
pending decisions in present litigation
to determine whether brew contain
ing 2 ga per cent of alcohol is intox-
icating, no action would be taken to-
ward stopping the sale Of beer con-
tanning no more than that amount Of
alcohol.
Thus, pending court decision or ac-
ton by Congress defining intoxicat-
ing beverages, sale Of the lighter
drinks will be permitted in states in
which there are no regulatory laws
until January 16, when constitutional
prohibition becomes effective. Other
than this, the only ray Of comfort
left the anti-prohibitionists is the
coming Of the time when President
Wilson will declare rehabilitation
Of the army complete, which auto
matically would suspend operation
Of the wartime act until January 16.
When the attitude Of the depart
ment of justice officials toward, Ubser
became known last night some Of
the prohibition advocates in Congress
were in favor of abandoning the plan
to adjourn until July in order that
the act to define what beverages are
intoxicating and providing for the
enforcement Of the wartime dry law
might be rushed through. However,
leaders refused to accept the proposal
and the question, at its earliest, can
not be considered until next week.
Even then a stiff fight is promised
as an effort will be made to permit
the president to set aside the war
time act insofar as it relates to light
wines and beer.
The action of the department qof
justice last night in announcing that
there would be no interference with
the sale of 2 ga per cent beer was a
reversal Of stand taken in state
ment issued previously in the day, for
