WASHINGTON, May 20.- Declar- ing it was not possible to draft a bomb proof liquor law. Wayne B. Wheeler, general counsel of the Anti Saloon League, told the house judi ciary committee today that some clerks employed by district prohibi- tion commissioners, were making more money in week through dis honest dealing with fraudulent per- mits for withdrawal of alcohol than they would earn on straight salaries in two years.
 Approximately 35,o00.600 gallons had been withdrawn n ine last year of considerably more than quart for every man, woman and child in the country. Wheeler said His was the concluding argument Cn the Vol. stead bill to tighten up the Volstead law a/d prevent sale of beer to the sick.
 Wheeler contended that of the 35,' OO0.000 gallons fully so per cent was used for beverage purposes. He sug. gested amending the Jaw so that none of it could be removed until, by medicating and denaturing, it had been rendered unfit for drinking.
 Touching only lightly on the ques- tion of beer as a medicine. Wheeler presented hundreds of petitions from many states, most Of them from doc tors opposing any let-down in the Volstead law under which beer could be prescribed for the ailing

SE NATE DEBATE NAVY BILL BACK ARTISANS
 CLASH ON FLOOR

WASHINGTON, May 20.-Contro- versy over the proposed establishment of a new Pacific coast naval base at Alameda, Calif.. and for suspending Charleston, s. C., navy yard improve ments again stalled the S500,000, 900 naval appropriation bill in the senate today in a quagmire of debate. No votes were taken, no progress was made, except debate and the senate adjourned until next Monday with leaders hoping for passage of the bill early next week.
 A bipartisan attack led by Senators Robinson, Democrat of Arkansas, and Borah, Republican of Idaho, was con ducted against the Alameda project. IL was contended that the bills pro- visions appropriating $l.500,000 to be- gin dredging and excavating for new supply base and authorizing accept- ance free to the government of more than five hundred acres of land near Alameda, really contemplated scrap ping the Mare Island navy yard and the expenditure of from $60,000,00O to S1OO. .0OO, ,0OO for great general fleet base. Senator Poindexter. Republican of Washington, in charge of the bill, contended that merely small sup ply base was contemplated at present and that congress could refuse further appropriations for fleet base.
 Charges Sectionalism
 The Charleston, s. C., project was the subject of an address by Senator Smith, Democrat of South Carolina, who charged sectionalism in naval appropriations. Urging the senate to reconsider it's recent vote ordering suspension of work on the Charleston drydock and channel until 1924, he as- serted that greatly disproportionate expenditures had been made on the 800 miles of Atlantic coast north of Cape Hatteras to the 2,00O miles Of coast line 10 the south.
 Forces opposing the Alameda pro visions expressed confidence tonight that they would be stricken from the bill, but leaders supporting the com mittee recommendations appeared as confident of retaining them. Whether Senator Smiths fight for expendi- lures at the Charleston yard would be fruitful also was in doubt. Republi- can leaders were said to be consider ing restoration of some provision for Charleston.

 D|V|DF OPINION
 AT CONVENTION

WINONA LAKE, Ind, May 2O.-Di- vision of opinion as to the advisabil- ity of filling immediately the office of stated clerk of the Presbyterian Church in the United states of Amer. ica developed today at the 133rd gen eral assembly of the church.
 The commissioners favOring an election at this assembly to fill the vacancy created by the death of Dr. William Henry Roberts showed their strength today, putting through an amendment to the executive commis- sion's report providing for an elec- ton at the present session.
 The election will not be held before next week, however, and proponents of the plan for postponing the election expressed hope that they might yet gain their point when the question of reorganization of the whole scheme of church government comes up for discussion.
 Defeat of the overture which pro- posed that women be made eligible for the offices of elder and deacon in the church was announced this aft ernoon. This overture failed to re- ceive the required two-thirds major
