Is It Constitutional?

&ANs AAhASSJ
Mr.. Harding will presumably sign
the so called anti-beer bill, the con-
ference report on which, already
passed by the House, was adopted by
the Senate on Friday by vote of Sc
to 90. The bill will soon become
law. The Supreme Court will have
to decide whether or not certain pro-
visions Of it are constitutional.
The attack will be made on two
main grounds. First: Is the pro-
hibition of the medical prescription of
beer or malt liquors within the terms
of the Eighteenth Amendment!
That prohibits the manufacture. sale
or transportation, and SO on. OF in
toxicating liquors "for beverage pur-
poses" Has Congress the constitu-
tional power under that amendment
to prohibit the manufacture. sale.
and so forth ]. of intoxicating liquors
for medicinal purposes? The liberty
of the medical profession and the
health of the community are directly
concerned in the answer that the
court may make to this question.
The bill makes to the Stanley
amendment anu tIle SOuStltuliOLl
only the concession that private res
licences may not be searched without
a warrant The Fourth Amendment
declares that the
right of the people to be secure in
their persons. houses. papers and eff
fects against unreasonable searches
and s.izures shall not be violated,
and no warrants shall issue but upon
probable cause. supported by oath or
affirmation, and particularly describ-
ing the place to be searched, and the
persons or things to be seized.
The bill permits prohibition agents
to search without warrant persons,
stores, offices, vehicles. That is, it
allows the Fourth Amendment so far
as houses are concerned, but disal-
lows it as to persons and effects.
Will that disallowance' hold water?
Are not searches and seizures. with
out warrant, of persons and effects,
as well as houses, exactly the I'M
reasonable searches and seizures
from which the Fourth Amendment
protects the people? Much learning
| and more heat have been disengaged
from the long controversy in the
Senate. There is nothing more to
say about it until the Supreme Court
! decides.

unpopular job at best. Anyhow it
might be we'll to remark right here,
what seems to be practically unan-
imous opinion, that if Mr.. Harding
has but one term, if he keeps on as
he has begun. it will be one of the
most useful terms ever served in
this country. which generally has
been pretty lucky in that respect.
And that we may not be confused it
is expedient to note that the Demo-
Gratis are not selecting his successor
but are devoting what little partisan
animation they possess to the matter
of congressional fences. 1t might as
we'll be admitted, when one COM
pares the administration and the
congress he is compelled to recognize
a difference.

he had hardly put his car away until
he was down here asking for q build
ing permit, saying that he wanted 70
begin work on house right away. The
man was George w. Cook, from South
Paris, Me, and he is starting to built
a house on lot on Connecticut avenue
and Ashe street, owned by his daugE-
ter, Mrs. L. C. Smiley Mr.. Cook was
hunted up, and he was found about
a half hour later giving a bill Of lunl-
ber to a man, and not long after he
was over on the lot looking at the To-
cation and preparing to get under way.
He said he did not want to waste
much time, as he liked to have things
moving, and that when he had work
to be done he liked to get at it. This is
about the fastest movement in the
building line that Moore county has
to record. but it is by no means an
isolated case"
The Portland papers have printed
considerable marine news about the
steamers of the Nawsco Pacific Line
Two of these steamers were in Port
land last week, and one of them, the
Bristol, took in miscellaneous cargo
of all Maine goods for the Pacific
coast. This is of particular interest
to South Paris people because there
was quito consignment of Paris rae
crs, 50 the children of that far off
coast may soon be sliding down hill as
South Paris children are now doing.
Beside this South Paris product. there
were many cases of Poland Spring
water. a large shipment of paper, net
forgetting 100000 paper pie plates
from Fairfield, a lot of canned sar-
dimes from down the coast. and canned
corn which may have come from South
,, Paris, for all tho writer knows.

THERE is A DIFFERENCE

The Democrats are INDUCING in A
not unnatural if unholy glec over a
report to the effect that certain
members of Congress are convinced
that Mr.. Harding must be only one
term President because of his ina
bility to agree with Congress. VIC
had not supposed Congress to be
wholly devoid of sense of the ludi-
creus and consequently are inclined
to look upon this as a canard.
1t may be we'll to consider certain
noticeable contrasts between the
President and Congress. although
none of them suggest a one term
President and several Of them do
suggest one-term Congress. The
President, for instance, wants legis-
lation in keeping with election
pledges; he is more inclined to do
things than he is to talk about them,
though what he has to say has been
remarkably lucid and sensible. And
so one might 90 on noting contrasts.
none of which. however, suggest but
one term for Mr.. Harding.
Is 1t possible some narrow minded
fellow who happened to get into
Congress has been so peeved at find
ing himself outside the limelight in
this great international readjustment
and conference that he has spoken
spitefully? Come to think of 1t the
great world is paying mighty little
heed just now to Congress drudging
and Judging long with the tax bill and
making mess Of 1t, a difficult and

TEX OUTLINES
NEW PLAN FOR
TITLE MATCHES
Richard Desires to Hold Both
Jack-Georges and Jack
Jess Bouts Near n. Y.
TO ERECT HUGE ARENA

NEW YORK, Feb. 3.-Lir ole New York
Is going to get the Dempsey Carpenter
scrap after all. 1t is also going to get
the Dempsey Willard knuckle fest, pro-
providing Dempsey is still champion after
he meets Carpentier.
These announcements were made last
night by Promoter Tex Richard, who
plans to build an open-air arena in or
near New York for the staging Of the in
ternat1onal battle July 2 and the winner
Of this bout and Willard on Labor day.
Richard has staged most Of his big
fights in the open and he believes that
even with q limit of SIS for a champion
ship be will be able TO promote the
Dempsey-Carpentier bout successfully.
The Dempsey Willard match has been
simply set ahead. Richard said that both
the original match on March II had he
insisted on il, though Wizards sudden
departure from this neighborhOod and
Jack kearns assertion that Jess had
run out Of the match, have left a sus-
picion that the match did not look al
Turing to willard, who would have had
60 gamble with Richard on the gate it
would draw in the Garden"
Richard is expected to announce q site
for the big arena within a week or two
and he expects to have it ready for the
staging Of outdoor bouts just as soon as
the weather will permit. This plan will
be followed TO the letter, unless unfOre-
seen happenings block it.

HOWL
OVER DEFEATS
Student Paper Leads Attack
on Chicago Basket Coach
ing System.

CHICAGO, Feb. 8.-Three defeats in the
last ten days have put the University Of
Chicago basketball team out of the run
ming for the Big Ten championship and
stitutton that the Daily Maroon, student
publication, yesterday printed series Of
letters under a strea mer head, What's
Wrong With Basket-ball2"
Last winter the Chicago team, coached
by Pat Page, who now Is at Butler Col
lege, won the Big Ten title, and with
four of the five regulars, the most ex-
perienced team in the conference, return
ing, another championship was openly
predicted With Capt. Crisler, Birkhoff,
VOlimer and Halliday, the first three OF
them all-conference stars last year, again
In the lineup, the Maroons dropped three
Of their first six games and now are be-
low several teams composed chiefly OF
green material.
One letter printed in the Daily Maroon
follows, in part: We think that In
Crisler, Birkhoff, Halliday and Vollmer
Chicago has four of the most skillful as
well as most experienced players In the
conference, and that if they lose games
1t is because something is wrong with
the coaching. We think they played bet
ter two weeks ago than they do now.
I'VE cannot see why no good man Is
secured to replace Pat Page. We Ike
Walker who did well In football. We
would have been quite willing to have
seen him given charge of baseball, and
perhaps BASKETBALL made a unit OF au-
thOrity under Mr.. Stagg, as was Page.
Or if Walker is not the man, somebody
else given authority. What we do not
understand is this fddling about, this
messy experimentation.
I'VE think Mr.. Stage is the best foot
ball coach in the country, ana we know
he is the best influence for manllness In
athletics But we have doubts whether
Michael Angelo would have been q good
