that of S1.150,000 for a drydock at
the Charleston navy yard.
1t was predicted the insurgents
would not go further In the disarm-
ament plan than to force adoption of
the Borah amendment. though they
might favor one offered by Senator
Pomerene authorizing the President to
suspend the present building program
pending the outcome OF the proposed
negotiations.
The administration also let the
house know that 1t had no objection
to its proceeding with the peace with
Germany resolution. and the house
committee on foreign affairs has be-
gun work on the measure. The house
leaders do not agree with certain
phases of the Knox resolution adopted
by the senate, but the differences prob
ably can easily be reconciled.
Continuing its hearings on the Vol
stead bill to make the prohibition en-
forcement law more drastic. the house
judiciary committee did not find any
friends Of beer or the medical boot
logger. Manufacturers of favoring
extracts, patent medicines and per
fumes. in protesting against added re-
s~trictions, were outspoken in opposi-
ton TO medical beer and the sale Of
connections, masquerading as medi-
cine. Chemists appeared before the
committee and protested vigorously
against legislation which, they be-
lieved, would ten to restrict the legiti-
mate use Of alcohol In industry.
Representative Ryan of New York
has introduced In the house a bill
which would permit the sale of 5 per
cent beer and IA per cent wine In
states where a referendum showed the
voters wished 1t. This, of course,
won't get anywhere except into a
~pigeonhole, but there was some real
solace for the vets in last weeks
news. On Friday more than two-thirds
of the federal prohibition forces were
discharged on orders from Commits
sioner Kramer. because OF lack of
funds with which TO pay their salaries.
This condition will last, 1t was assert
ed, for 40 days. and the bootleggers
all over the country got busy at once.
Mr.. Kramer hoped the police would
supply the deficiency in enforcing the
dry law. but In the cases of many
cities his hope was ~baseless.

Early last week II became apparent
that the administration had virtually
abandoned Its fight against Senator
Bornh's amendment to the pending
naval appropriation bill. which requests
the President TO enter into negotia-

building. Maybe Mr.. H~ardlng's
