SWEEPS AWAY LAST
HOPE OF THE VETS
euPREME COURT DECISION UP
HOLDS VALIDITY or THE
DRY AMENDMENT.
Amendment Not Only Came Within
Amending Powers Conferred BY
Constitution, But Was Lawfully
Proposed and 10 Now Law.

Washington. The prohibition
amendment and the enforcement act
were held constitutional by the su-
preme court In a unanimous decision
rendered June q.
While attorneys far the interests at
lacking the two measures were grant
ed permission to file motions for re-
hearings. the decision was regarded
generally as striking a death blow TO
the hopes of the vets.
The courts opinion. rendered by
Justice Van Devanter, was sweeping.
It held that the amendment not only
came within the amending powers
conferred by the federal constitution,
but was lawfully proposed and now
was law. While recognizing congress
had limitations as to the enforcement
of laws regarding beverages, the court
held those limits were not transcribed
In the enactment Of the enforcement
act restricting the alcoholic content Of
intoxicants to one-half of per cent.
While New York, New Jersey and
Wisconsin acts permitting the manu-
facture and sale Of beverages of more
than one-half of per cent alcoholic
content were not directly involved, the
decision was interpreted as invalidat-
ing them. The court said the first
section OF the amendment by It's own
force invalidates any act, whether by
congress. by a state legislature or by
a territorial assembly," which au-
thorizes or sanctions what the section
prohibits.
Concurrent power granted by the
amendment to federal and state gov
ernments to enforce prohibition, the
court further held, "does not enable
congress or the several states to de-
feat or thwart prohibition, but only to
enforce 1t by appropriate means"
The decision was set forth in eleven
conclusions. covering seven proceed
ings. These proceedings included
original suits brought by Rhode Island
directly attacking the constltutionality
of the amendment.

LEADERS PREDICT
EXTENDED SESSION
FAILURE TO NAME REPUBLICAN,
PRESIDENTIAL CANDIDATE
EARLY INDICATED.
Baekers Of Each Candidate Claiming
the Balance Of Power, But II 10 Not
Expected That Selection viii
Come Upon First Ballot.

Chicago.-Prospects for prolonged
contest In the selection of a Republi-
can candidate for president are grow
ing with the arrival Of uninstructed
delegates. who. hold the balance of
power.
Out of the deadlock which win be
produced by the failure of Wood,
Lowden or Johnson forces to command
a majority win come the nominee, be
he dark horse or one of the big three.
The Lowden forces are claiming as
high as $50 votes on the first ballot
and the Wood forces equally as many.
The johnson claims are not stated In
figures, but the California senator's
headquarters are claiming hourly adj
ditions to his column.
After looking over the much-mixed
situation, with its lack of head and
leadership, the men whose influence
counts i'm the party councils have come
to the conclusion that about the best
way out is to let the candidates with
the largest number of supporters trot
a few heats to show the convention
what they can do. Those favoring
this plan feel perfectly certain that
none OF the candidates will be nomin-
ated on the test ballots.
After the three leading candidates
have demonstrated to the convention
that they have not enough votes to
nominate themselves, 1T Is argued that
the delegates viii be in better position
to determine whether they prefer to
combine on one OF the three or look
at some dark horses.
Announcement OF the selection of
temporary officers Of the Republican
national convention to be elected by
the convention was made by the sub
committee on arrangements on Satur-
day.
The selections are: Chairman,
Henry Cabot Lodge. Massachusetts,
secretary, Lafayette b. Gleason, New
York; sergeant at arms, Edward P.
Thayer, Indiana; chief assistant SER
geant at arms, Guy ". Howard. Min
nesota; second assistant sergeant at
arms, McGinnis Hatfield, West Vir-
ginia; parliamentarian, Lehr Fess,
Ohio; official reporters, Herman A.
Phillips, New York; George L. Hart,
Virginia chief of door keepers, Briga-
der General J. A. Ryan.
Appeals from the decisions of the
national committee In contested dele
gate seats from the southern states
probably viii be made to the creden-
tials committee Of the convention as
soon as 1t is organized. The decisions
were nearly all in favor OF Lowden,
and Wood has stated that appeals
would be taken.

DISCOVERY OF HOLY CROSS
Story Goes That the Empress HeIena'
Was Responsible for lie ReeoV-
cry From 4he Jews.

Through the zeal OF the Empress
Helena, mother of Constantine the
Great, was discovered the cross on
which the Savior was cruclhed, and
the date is given as May 8. The
story usually told Is to the effect that
the empress went to Jerusalem and
there compelled the jews to bring the
cross from It's conceaIment and give 1t
TO her, together with other crosses in
their possession. It's identity was es-
fablIshed by miracle: The body OF
dead man was placed on each Of the
crosses, and when it touched the true
one the dead man Immediately came
TO life. Many pilgrims travelling to
Jerusalem received pieces Of the true
cross. and the question was raised as
to the possibility Of supplying thou
sands with those fragments without
entirely carrying away the cross. II
was therefore said that the true cross
had the power OF reproducing Itself.
On the capture Of Jerusalem In 0l4'
the cross we are told. was carried INTO
Persia. where It remained until re-
stored by Heraclius, which event .
eommemorated in September and ID
usually called Holyrood day. The four
nails were distributed 80 that two
were placed in the imperial crown
one brought to France. and another
thrown into the Adriatie to quiet It's
turbulence.
