WOULD NOT ALLOW
LIQUOR in HOMES

Washington, July 21.-An effort to
have a provision in the bill making it
unlawful for a person to possess liquor
in his own dwelling was expected to
be. the storm center Of debate today
in the house, when consideration Of
prohibition enforcement legislation
was resumed. Members who announc-
ed they would attempt to have the bill
amended with this point in view de-
clared the measure framed permitted
boarding by wealthy persons, thou
sands of whom are said to have stored
in their homes enough wines and
whiskey to last them a lifetime.
Other members were said to feel
that the 'drys" had gone about as far
as, it. was wise to 60, as to make the
legislation too drastic would only
bring it into contempt and thereby
defeat the ends to which the prohibit
tionists were working. Still others OBJ
jected to the action of the majority in
rushing there the bill as they saw no
need for haste in favor of the delay
that is bound to ensue before the SEN
ate is ready to take up the bill.
