NEW JERSEY WINS RIGHT TO TEST VALIDITY OF DRY LAW
 BY SUPREME COURTS RULING
WAY NOW CLEARED
 FOR FINAL BALLOT
Several Reservations to Arti- cle X Are Voted Down
 Today.

Washington, March 15.-Paving the way for final vote upon the reserva- ton to Article K, the senate today rejected, 59 to 17, Senator FrelinS- huysen's substitute proposing sum- mary disavowaI of all obligations.
 The reservation worked out by the bipartisan conference was offered by Senator Kirby, democrat, of Arkansas, and was rejected, 4o to 31. All of the republicans and Senators Gore, Reed, Shields, Williams and Harrison, dem- ocrats. voted against it.
 The senate also promptly rejected 46 to 30, the substitute reservation drafted by former President Taft which was offered in the bipartisan conferencet by Senator Hitchcock and presented to the senate by Senator Kirby. The Taft draft disavowed any legal obligation, but gave congress power to. act under a moral obliga- tion.
 Without q record vote the senate rejected Senator Kings substitute de- claring that no obligation would he assumed in advance by the Unite l States, but the congress would con- slider recomm endations of the league council to protect territorial integrity of any league member.
 Senator Knox, republican, of Penn sylvania, supported the Frelinghuysen substitute.
 The American people," he said, twill not be deceived by any shell game in politics.
 Senator Brandegee, republican, or Connecticut said rejection of the Ere 1inghuysen substitute would imply a choice of some kind of obligation. The Lodge reservation, MT. Brandegee declared, '.weaves through a tangled skein of language to the same result"
 The American people, he adde.:, would rather have plain, blunt Yankee langua ge." .
 Those voting for the substitute were:
 Republicans: Bcrah. Brandegee, Fernald, France, Freling huysen. Gronna. Knox, Mccormick, Sherman, Moses. Norris, Pondexter, Sutherland and Wadsworth.
 Democrats: Gore, Reed and Shields.
 Not single republican vote was cast for the Taft resolution. and five dem O era ts-Ha rrison, Gore, Reed, McKeIlal. and Shields--voted with the republicans against it.
