attack uron Attorney General Harry
NJ. Daugherty's ruling that liquor
may not be brought into the terri
torial waters Of the United States
by foreign slips when representa-
tives of foreign steamship lines
went before Federal Judge Hand
and asked for a permanent injunc-
ton against enforcement Of the
Daugherty dictum.
The issue as outlined by former
Judge Van Vechten Veeder, counse
for the several British steamship
lines, is whether the mere pres
ence Of liquor in the sea stores Of
foreign vessels within the terri
torIal waters of the United states
comes within the restrictions of the
eighteenth amendment OF the Amer
lean constitution and the prohibition
enforcement act. The contention Of
the foreign ship owners is that they
do not. Two grounds for this argu-
ment were advanced.
First. the possession of liquor in
sea stores Of foreign ships is not
within any Of the expressed restric-
ton of prohibition Legislation.
Second, that if the expressed pro-
h%ibitions. by reasons of certain gen.
eralities. should bring foreign ships

Amendments.

Washington, Aug. 15.-The senate
driving forward at a speed it seldom
attains. completed consideration Tues
day night of all committee amendments
TO the administration tariff bill. Thus
was that measure put into about the
form in which it will pass late mex,
Saturday.
Hundreds of committee recommenda
tions. some of which upset decisions
reached previously by the senate af-
ter long discussion were approved dur
ing the 10 hour session. The vast ma
jority Of these. including all of those
dealing with the administration sec
ton of the bill, had to be acted upon
with little discussion as the unanimous
consent agreement entered into last
Saturday operated to cut off debate
promptly at 4. p. m.
About 100 of the amendments con-
sidered were reported by the finance
committee majority when the senate
convened. This led to a protest from
democratic leaders and after debat o
was shut off, Senator Reed, democrat.
Missouri. made an unsuccessful effort
by parliamentary means to prevent
consideration of such amendments as
had not been acted upon up to that
time.
