Garth, chairman of the tax league, officially announced that the fight would now be transferred from the legislature to the people.

 Montgomery, October 1S.-(Spe- cial.) Cereal beverages will not be sold lAgally in Alabama until an- other legislature has so voted The house of representatives late Tues day afterSoon administered deei- sive defeat to the bill of Representa- tive George Ross of Jefferson, which would have tlegalized the manufac- ture and sale of such drinks and would have placed the revenues de- rived from licefases in the rural pulp lie school funds of Alabama. Fifty one voted against the passage of the bill, while thirtyi-nine voted for it. The defeat was final, because mem bers of the majority moved to re- consider the vote at once and others moved to lay such motion on the table, thus preventing further con- sideration of the measure.
 The vote was reached after ad- journment time following a debate which was waged throughout the aft ernoon. debate which, has seldom been heard in legislative halls Of Alabama. During this debate the charge was made that the Rassage or the bill would be the openiNg of the gates for liquor and othef strong drinks again, and that shortly other bills would be proposed which, would increase the alcoholic content dQ bev- erages which might legally be\ sold and soon the prohibition laws would cease to exist.
 Opposition Increases
 However, friends of prohibition who favored the passage of the bAl, insisted that prohibition would not be weakened by the passage of thS bill, which did not propose the legal-A ization of the sale of any beverage which contained more than F of per cent of alcohol by volume. But these appeals fell on deaf ears. The first vote on the bill was 47 against 43 for, but four changed their votes from aye" to nay" thus increas- ing the opposition vote to 51 and de- creasing the favorable vote to Ss
