ments-Requires Warrants
for Searches


WASHINGTON. Aug. 9.-The Willis
Campbell anti-beer bill was passed By
the senate late yesterday. 80 to 20, and
sent to conference with the house with
the prospect of its final enactment before

Treasury officials said that the beer

ferees. The regulations would provide
for use of medical beer under the ruling
of Attorney General Palmer ID
The ban against prescriptions of beer
by physicians and limitation of prescrip-
tion of wine and whiskey contained in the
bill as passed by the house were virtually
unchanged by the senate, but a few inn
portant amendments were added These
included a provision to restrict operations
of the prohibition enforcement officers by
prohibiting searches, or any attempts at
searching of private property or premises
without search warrants \ violation of
this clause would be misdemeanor, sub
iect to fine of $1,000 and one years inn
pris0nment. Penalties of five years inn
priscnment and $1,000 fines were pro
yided for persons attempting searches
while posing as prohibition agents.
The bill limits wine prescriptions to
one-fourth of a gallon and that of spirit
uous beverages to one-half pint by alcO-
holic content to an Individual in 10 days.
No change was made in the house clause
fixing 100 prescriptions as the maximum
for a physician in 80 days except by spe-
cial order of the prohibition commissioner.
