REQUESTS LIFTING OF BAN

Washington, Dec. l9.-Requestlng that President
Wilson lift the time ban liquor, Former Senator
Lewis of Illinois held long conference with Secretary
Tumuty today Lewis believes that business propo-
ston of large stocks of whiskey should be given
chance to dispose of before the 18th amendment be-
comes effective:
Representative Olney of Massachusetts also called
upon Tumuy in the interest of raising the ban Belief
that least delay of Is days in the inauguration of
stitutional prohibition be obtained gaining cred
among attorneys here today to fight the battle of
interests in the supreme court Legal authorities
being scanned carefully in effort to- sustai this
belief. Unusual Importance is attached to the point be-
Of the possibility that time prohibition may end
by the proclamation of peace the time CONSTITUTE
tiona prohibition becomes effective that l3 days would
like many months to the liquor interests anxious
to unload their large Stocks
Constitutional prohibition, according to the general
belief, becomes effective January 16 Liquor attorneys
claim that there legal basis for this date The
proclamation of the state department that the amendment
had become part of the constitution does not declare that
Sc states had ratified the amendment January 49, 1919
simply gives the states that ratified the amendment and
declared it becomes valid to all ntens and purposes
part of the constitution of the United States
The date of issuance Of the proclamation is January
49, The point which liquor interests make is that
definite date must be proclaimed to the people when
constitutional prohibition becomes effective To support
this it refers to the recent decision Of the supreme court
unfolding time prohibition when it decided that de-
unfolding time prohibition when decided that de-
proclamation.
