But they have heard that before

winds interminably through pleas
ant hilly country, with a view of
the Hudson on the right and two

Hudson fades from view, but the
barbed wire does not.

Test Case
Is Due On
Beer Issue
Action To Determine
Limits of Law Are
Inevitable After the
Senate's Stand
Rv W.. III. Atkins

Washington, July 3O.-Anotnel
Supreme Court test of the constr
tutional limits Of the Prohibition
law is now inevitable, since the
senate has decided to outlaw
medicinal" beer.
Opponents of the Willis-Camp-
bell Anti-Beer bill asserted today
that the measure will be declared
unconstitutional. They declared
that the National Prohibition act
gives to Congress no authority to
interdict the manufacture or sale
of liquors of any kind for mon
beverage purposes.
Many Senators, in fact strong
in their antagonism to the Anti
Beer bill, to-day pointed out what
seemed to them it's absurdities.
That it will not stand the test OF
the courts was their prediction.
Review of the provisions OF the
National Prohibition act, ratified
by the Legislatures of most OF the
States, left to the Government,
in its enforcement work, no power
to prohibit purely medicinal
liquors, whether spirituous or
malt, according to the contention
of these Senators.
DRY" leaders, however, in this
as in other matters, are irrecon-
ciliable, and they are willing to
take their chances on having the
new law thrown out by the courts
If it goes through the long pro-
cess of litigation, through appeal
from one court to another. OF
course the "dry" will win an
advantage, which may be consi-
dered important.
wet" leaders admit that Con-
gress can go to any length to pro-
hibit liquors for beverage" pur-
poses but say that Congress has
lover-leaped its constitutional
powers in interfering with pro-
per use of "non-beverage" liquors
OF any lnnd. Although the vets
have been beaten all the way in
their many court contests over
the dry" DAVIS. they are still
alive and active and now stand
ready. it is understood, to launch
the new attack alleging the un-
constitutionality Of antibeer legis
lation, and with the United. States
Supreme Court as the objective.
