Chicago, June 7.-Senator Hiram

in favor of his own nomination fol

Defending the two big issues, john

The second issue, international, he
covered fatty with the declaration: i

his opposition to the Versailles treaty.

Speaking of men in general and their
standards of business integrity, and
patriotism in dealing with the high

practices are nefarious. He accused
these OF breeding radicalism."

HOPE OF BOOZE
Prohibition Amendment and
Enforcement Act Are Both
Held to Be Constitutional

Washington, June Both the
federal prohibition amendment and the
enforcement act passed by congress
were held constitutional today by the
supreme court.
The court dismissed petitions filed
by the state of Rhode Island to have
federal officials enjoined from enforc-
ing prohibition in that state.
The court also dismissed injunction
proceedings brought by the state of
New Jersey to prevent enforcement Of
prohibition within that state.
Injunctions restraining prohibition
officials from interfering with the
Manitowoc Products Company, a Wis
consin corporation, in the manufacture
of beer containing more than one
half of one per cent of alcohol were
dissolved by the court.
The court upheld federal court de-
crees dismissing proceedings brought
to enjoin the prohibition amendment
from being enforced against Christian
Feigenspan, a brewer of Newark, n. J..
Federal court DEGREES denying SIM
liar injunctions sought by the St.
Louis Brewing Association likewise
vas affirmed.
The courts opinion was very short,
setting forth only the courts conclu-
sions. Chief Justice White rendered
a supplemental opinion concurring in
the one rendered by Justice vanDe-
vanter, but going more fully into the
issues Involved.
Associate Justice McReynolds, while
not dissenting from the courts opinion,
said he confined his conclusions to
the fact that it is impossible to say
what construction should be given to
the eighteenth amendment. A multi
tude of questions will arise and I pre-
fer to remain hee when they arise"
The courts opinion on the main is
sues involved was unanimous. Asso-
ciate Justices McKenna and Clark,
however, sdissented in part.
Associate Justice McKenna in still
another opinion said 'the court de-
clares conclusions only without giving
reasons for them. I must at least ex-
cuse if I cannot justify my dissent" !"
Justice Mckenna said the Rhode
Island and New Jersey cases should
have been decided on their merits. He
added that he did not agree with the
action of the court in reversing the
case.
Chicago, June Levy Mayer, of
who argued the case for the
distillers in the supreme court, said,
on hearing the decision. "the fight is
lost. The avenue Of the courts is now
exhausted"
