DELAY RHODE ISLAND
DRY LAW COMPLAINT
United States Asks the Supreme
Court to Dismiss Case and De-
cision Is Deferred Until April.

Washington.-Frie of The late
John Barleycorn who have entertained
fond hopes that he may be restored 20
life must remain in a state of thirsty
suspense at least until April.
This became certain when the gov
eminent launched it's defense against
the attack of Rhode Island on the con-
stitutionality of the prohibition amend
ment and the Volstead enforcement
act. The governments first move was
motion by Solicitor General King in
the United States Supreme Court that
the Rhode Island bill of complaint be
dismissed,
The validity of constitutional pro-
hibition, may be determined by the
courts decision on this motion. The
arguments will not be made, however,
until after the February recess of the
court, Mr.. King announced
Thus the argument cannot be heard
by the court until after March l, which
makes it certain, even under the most
expeditions consideration by the court,
that an opinion will not be handed
down prior to April lin fact, the
probability is that it will be some time
thereafter.
Four reasons were advanced by So
licitor General King in support of his
motion for dismissal of the Rhode Is
land case as follows:
"FirSt.-BecauSe the matter and
things set up in said bill present no
matter of a justifiable character be-
tween compliments and defendants,
nor does it set up any subject matter
properly invoking the jurisdiction of
this court under the grant of judicial
power.
"Second.-Because the facts in the
complaint do not set up any cause of
action.
"Third.-Because there is no equity
in said bill.
Fourth. the bill alleges no
cause of action against these defend
ants or either of them"
A motion to advance the arguments
on the Ohio appeals involving the
question of whether tates can over
ride by referendum ratification of the
prohibition amendment by legislatures
also was granted by the court These
arguments will be heard March 1.

ARMY TRAINING BILL
WINS COMMITTEE SIS
Measure Reported Requires CON-
puIsory Military Service by
Boys From 10 to II.

Washington.-By a vote Of to 5,
the Senate Military Committee approx
ed provisions providing for compulsory
military training for boys between
eighteen and twenty-one years, inclu-
siye, and ordered favorable report
upon the army reorganization bill.
The compulsory military training
provision, which fixes the training Pc
riod at four months, was opposed in
the committee by Senators Lenroot of
Wisconsin and Capper of Kansas, Re-
publicans, and Senators Mcclellan of
Tennessee, Sheppard of Texas and Kir-
by of Arkansas, Democrats. Senators
Wadsworth of New York, Warren of
Wyoming, Sutherland Of West Vir-
ginia, New of Indiana, Frelinghuysen
of New Jersey, Knox Of Pennsylvania
and Spencer of Missouri, Republicans,
as of Colorado, Democrats, supported
1t. Senator Mcclellan announced that
he would submit minority report, in
which a number of the senators who
opposed the plan are expected TO con-
cur.
As finally agreed upon, the bill is
virtually the same as reported by the
subcommittee, but is radically differ
ent from the reorganization bill sub
mitted by the war department to Con-
gress. In addition to establishing COM
pulsory military training, the bill pro-
vides for the establishment of one
army, to be divided into citizen army
composed of men who have received
the compulsory training, a standing
army consisting of 2S0,00 enlisted men
and $4,000 officers and a National
Guard
Specific provision is made in the bill
that the citizen army cannot be called
to the colors except in case of a dec
laration of war
To accommodate the reserve force
built up under the system of military
training, provision is made in the bill
for an annual reduction of per cent
in the enlisted strength of the regular
army and per cent in the number of
enlisted officers for the first five years.
This will mean, Chairman Wadsworth
explained, that at the end of five years
the regular army will be reduced by
10000 men and 1900 commissioned Off
GERS.
