REPEAL OF DRY BILL
VOTED DOWN IN HOUSE
Liquor Interests Spring Surprise,
but Are Beaten by Vote
Of 80 to 90.

Washington, Feb. 26.-Without warn
ing an effort was made in the House this
afternoon To repeal the Volstead law
enforcing prohibition. Representative
Igoe of Missouri, Democrat, made the
motion, which was lost by vote of so
to 80. In supporting the motion he as
serted that at least 100000 persons
had violated the law in one way or another
and that it was impracticable and i'm
possible of rigid enforcement.
When the item of 81 500 600 for the en-
forcement of the prohibition law was
reached In the legislative appropriation
bill, now under consideration, Mr.. Igoe
moved to strike cut this provision and
insert his repeal amendment The ''drys"
were alarmed for a moment, and when
Representative Tilson of Connecticut.
who occupied the chair. ruled the amend
ment was in order, they sent out a hurry
call for members.
Il believe that this law has been vio-
lated so often since it went into effect
that if IL were strictly enforced there
would be more of the adult population
of the United States in Jail than outside,
said Representative lgoe.
The States which have local option
laws are going to throw the whole burden
of enforcement on the Federal govern
ment and they might as well. because il
is apparent from events in Michigan that
State officers will be compelled TO do 40
by overzealous Federal agents Now of
course if this law is repealed il will be
sad news to the Anti-Saloon League II
would stop their efforts to touch the
American people in drive for funds
ostensibly to enforce it, but actually TO
defeat all candidates for office, local,
State and national, who will not do its
bidding.

TEMPERANCE BOARDS
ARE URGED BY BREWERS
Fear Pendulum May Swing Too
Far if Dry Law is Upsct by
Court.

Atlantic CITY, N. j., Feb. 24.--Hugh
Fox, secretary OF the United States Brew
ers Association, which is in conference
here, proposed today the organization
Of a national body, backed by Presidential
and Congressional authority, to "pre-
vent the pendulum from swinging too
far" if tho national prohibition amend
meDt fails, either through Supreme Court
decision or public torpor.
The sentiment of the country, Mr..
Fox said, WAS overwhelmingly for tenn
perancc, but Temperance organizations
are SO thoroughly committed to the pro-
hibition dogma that il is hopeless to look
to them for leadership. Hence, he thought,
men OF influence, including employers,
wage earners, lawyers, psychologists and
temperance program.
Mr.. Fox would have the proposed COM
mission consider the whole drink prob
lem anew, and he would have its mem
bersbip of such distinction and so dis
interested, it would command general
respect when it reported rot a. aca-
demic temperance program, but the most
practical temperance methods"
The conference took no action on the
suggestion today
President Christian Fcigenspap Of New
York WAS cheered when he asserted that
Governor Edwards OF New Jersey, as
result OF his courageous attitude ION
prohibition) has become n national fig
tlre on this ISSUE" but the delegates re-
fused TO commit themselves as TO the
Presidential issue and made plain that
they would not become associated with
any national political movement. They
are holding themselves equally aloof
from any movement for light wines and
beers. Some of them say near-beers are
being accepted generally, but are not
popular.
The organization is expected 10 pn-
nounce several important decisions to-
morrow after consulting with William
u. Guthrie, associated with Elihu Rout
in the legal battle against the prohibi-
tion amendment.

Summerfeld has a champion calf.
Perhaps many people will doubt the
truth of this story, but it's the plain
and unadulterated fact. Mr.. A. D.
Mitchell, whose farm is on the edge Of
our town, takes great pride in raising
purebred Jersey cows. He has calf
that is just fourteen months old this
April, and on last Thursday morning
this calf gave birth to calf some
thing unusual. Old time cattle men
in this section say they never heard
of such an occurrence. Both the
mother calf and the baby calf are IN
line shape. The young one is as iris
ky as any calf could be and is in nor
