PRESIDENT SIGNS.
BILL BARRING BEER
Measure Prohibiting Medical
Use Becomes LaW-Long
Fight Ends.

The anti-medical beer bill was
signed today by President Harding.
Signature of the bill on which con-
gressional action was completed last
Friday closed the gap in the nations
by Attorney General Palmer in an
opinion that there was nothing in the
Volstead act to preclude the pre-.
scription of beer as medicine.
Prohibition advocates in Congress
soon after publication of Mr.. Palmer's
ruling evolved the bill which in q
somewhat changed form was today
made a law Of the land. nti-prohi-
bitionists, principally in the Senate.
wased detershined night with the
result that nna! legislative action was
held or for several months.
Treasury officials because Of the
pending legislation withheld issu.:
ance OF regulations making prescrip-
tion of beer possible until last month.
Since the regulations were issued
about half a dozen brewers have OBJ
tanned permits to manufacture beer
for medical purposes. but owing to
the numerous changes made neces-
sary in instructions to prohibition di-
rectors and other officials it is not
believed that much beer has been pre-
scribed as medicine.
Limited to One Quart.
The bill signed today. in addition
TO outlawing medical beer. provides
that not more than one-fourth gallon
Of vinous liquor or vinous or spiritu-
Gus liquors, separately or in the ag-
gregate. containing more than one
half pint Of alcohol. may be prescrib-
ed in ten days; that physicians shall
be limited to 100 prescriptions for
such liquor in ninety days unless ex-
traordinary, reason is presented; that
importation of spirituous or vinous
liquor is prohibited until the amount
on rand shall not be sufficient to sup
ply the current need for non beverage
uses; that private residences may not
be searched without a search war;
rant, and that the courts OF Hawaii
and the Virgin Islands are given ju-
risdicticn to enforce the national pro-
hibition act.

Carries 10000 Monthly.
Figures were offered at the hear
ing to show that the bus company is
carrying 100000 passengers per
month on its original 18th street and
Potomac Park routes. Mr.. Ham con-
tended the commission should not
authorize new bus routes unless 1t
could be shown that they would serve
the communities through which they
pass better than the street cars now
serve those sections.
William e. Reed, president of the
bus company, told the commission he
applied for the cross-town route be-
cause of an expressed desire from his
18th street patrons for such a route.
The commission also decided to
permit the rapid transit company to
issue free transfers between the 18th
street and the Massachusetts avenue
this afternoon whether the bus COM
pany would accept this provision.
The present rate of fare on the busses
is 8 cents.
