|ANTI-BEER MEASURE
is SIDETRACKED
Congress Took Recess Until Septem-
Der 21. Senate Failed to Vote II
On Beer Bill.

Washington, Aug. "a. Congress
took recess tonight until September
Fl, without a vote by the senate on a
bill prohibiting the manufacture and
sale of beer to the sick. The senate
ended its work at 1885 o'clock and the
house at 11:58 o'clock.
Beer-bottled for the sick, not on
draft for the thirsty-stood early to-
night as the one legislative barrier
in the way of congressional plans for
a recess beginning at midnight. Given
the right of way in the senate after
a two-hour parliamentary snari, the
conference report on the measure
agreed to in the afternoon by the
house was discussed for five hours and
then displaced to make way for other
legislation.
