Committee To Draft
New Regulations To
Govern Liquor Sales

Louisville, X. Feb. IA commit
tee representing liquor manufacturers
and exporters has been called to meet
in Washington Monday with Prohibi-
ton Commissioner John F. Kramer;
Internal Revenue Commissioner Will
liam M. Williams, a representative of
the attorney generals office and five
chiefs of prohibition enforcement di-
visions, to redraft regulations govern
ing the liquor traffic.
At the time Attorney General Pal
mer issued his ruling that the au-
thoritss of the government to permit
withdrawal of liquor from, ware
houses was limited to manufacturers
and wholesale druggists alone. it was
announced in Washington that since
under the law permits to wholesale
liauor interests as distinguished from
wholesale druggists could not legally
be issued. it was necessary to redraft
the regulations.
Calling of liquor interests before
prohibition enforcement officials has
never before been known.
Mr.. Jones, representing the dis
tillers. said last night that it is entire
ly probable that a number Of matters
pertaining to the liquor business
would be gone into at the meeting,
and an effort made to settle objection
on the part of the liquor interests.
The question of concentrating
available liquor supplies under as few
heads as possible, thereby giving the
enforcement officials a better chance
to control Withdrawals. may be dis
cussed. Mr.. Jones said, but it is hard
ly possible. he believes, that n
definite action will be takef in this
direction. until after the administra-
tons change March 4. s

Dempsey Wins.

Dempsey won, as predicted, but
that doesn't tell the story. The Amer
lean was forced to the limit of his
skill. Only his superior strength
and stamina decided the outcome OF
the fight, and there were moments
when he was hard put to it to keep
his bending knees straight and his
feet under him.
There were times when Carpen-
tiers terrific punches wiped every
bit of expreosion from Dempsey
grim face, every expression but a
fleeing shadow of bewilderment that
any man could hit him SO hard.
The Frcnchman has made good
every claim made for him. He is a
master fighter, a master mind In a
body that obeys every impulse in
and with amazing speed and
force.
