.BONs EXPECTED
To RE ACH A vOTE:
THIS AF TE RN00N
Passage Foregone Con
clusion, But Harding
May Not Sign 1t

Washington, August 31.-A final
vote on the soldier bonus bill before
adjournment of the senate today APP
peared to be reasonably certain All
pending amendments had been dis
posed of and general debate begun
before the recess last night.
AS far as leaders were advised,
only three or four senators planned
to deliver prepared addresses, but
there was likelihood of another gen.
eral discussion such as has featured
each of the seven days the bill has
been under consideration.
Passage of the measure was re-
garded as a foregone conclusion, but
whether it would reach the statute
books was conceded by friends and
foes alike to be another question.
They held that this probably would
depend upon President Harding, since
it was regarded as very doubtful that
there could be obtained in the senate
the necessary two-thirds to pass the
bill over an executive veto.
1t will be some time, however, be-
fore the measure reaches the white
house. After the senate vote it will
be sent back to the house, which is
expected to order it to conference for
of the differences be-
;ween the two houses. After the con-
serees complete their work the next
step will be action by the house and
senate on the conference report.
With that approved the bill would be
'eady for the president.

TAKE 25 YEARS To
MAKE U.S.. DRY IS
HIS PREDICTION
Prohibition Official Saws
Lots of Work to Be
Done Yet

| New IorK, August 3l.-How long
do prohibition leaders think it will
take to. make America dry?
Twenty-Five years" says William
H. Anderson, state superintendent of
the Anti-Saloon league.
Anderson, though a state leader, is
the most militant prohibitionist in
the country, and he admits he has the
hardest job in the wettest state in
wha he calls "liquor's black belt"-
New York, Rhode Island, Connect
cut, New Jersey and Pennsylvania
In an interview he made these pre-
dictions:
within five on six years we will
have broken the political backbone of
booze and checked all serious efforts
to change the dry law.
within. another five or six years
the bootleggers will be so generally
in Jail or in terror that the Volstead
act will not be broken any more than
other laws are.
After that it will take Is years
for complete education of the people,
especially those of foreign birth or
extraction, respecting the nature and
effect of alcohol to the point where
prohibition will no longer be either
an issue or a problem"
Anderson thinks prohibition really
will he here in 1947 Perhaps earlier
but l947 is his conservative esti-
mate.
Magazine straw votes don't both

ing agitation for beer and light
wine. There isn't one chance in 100
Of the Volstead act being changed

Consumption of alcohol has drop |

League Necessary.
Il haven't any illusions about con-
;ressmen and legislators" he said. 81
now lots of those who vote dry are

hey vote according to the sentiment
f theie Rostituents. /
Politicians and the public general
will eventually get it through their
eads that anarchy is the only alter

The Anti-Saioon league win be nee

f-and perhaps all--of the IS years
ecessary to make prohibition pro-
ibit.
