governor Smith OUT
DEFINITELY FOR BEER
New YOrk'S Chief Executive
Begins Campaign for
Modified Dry Law

Albany, N. Y, Jan. 3.-In a per-
sonalIy delivered message to the New
York legislature today Governor AL
fred f. Smith recommended passage
of resolutions urging that the legisla-
| tive machinery at Washington be set
in immediate motion to bring about
a constitutional amendment permit
ting light wines and beer.
He also recommended initiation by
this state of a federal constitutional
amendment requiring submission to
the people instead of the legislatures
of all future proposals to amend the
federal constitution.
The legislature, the governor said
had ratified the 18th amendment in
1919 by narrow margin after refus-
ing a proposal by him to submit the
question to the people in a referen-
dunn. He then recalled the 2:75 per
cent beer bill passed by substantial
majority in the legislature in 1920
and subsequently rendered imperative
by a supreme court decision, and de-
clared that ''if democratic government
means what we all say it means, sure
ly the history of our own state does
not indicate that a majority of the |
people are in sympathy with the exist
ing Volstead act. If the people are to |
get relief from this situation they |
must look to the national congress"

All seems Depressed


Allied conference met at 3;0l
o'clock this afternoon for their sec
ond session with the arriving dele,
gates appearing In anything but q
cheerful mood. Premier Bonar Law
seemed particularly depressed.
The session opened with Premier
Poincare In the chair and with the
ambassadors and experts In waiting
in adjoining rooms as they were yes
terday.
British Offer Plan
The British delegation to the allNd
conference at an informal meeting to-
day decided to accept the French rep
arations plans as basis for negotia-
ton pro-basis for discussion, pro-
vided Premier Poincare agreed to dis
cuss the British plan. In this way
Premier Bonar Law would seek to
place the burden Of responsibility for
breakup of the conference on the
shoulders of Premier Poincare. The
cabinet which met under the chair
manship of President Milerand de-
cided that the British reparations
plans was an abandonment of the
treaty of Versailles. Its action was
unanimous.
According to the program OF the
British delegation as 1t stood at noon
today the British premier planned to
speak at the allied meeting at 3
O'Clock this afternoon and tell Prem
ier Poincare that the British were
willing to discuss the French plan if
the British and other plans were dis
cussed at the same time.
If Mr.. Poincare should refuse to
examine the British plan further Mr..
Bonar Law according to the present
decision, will announce that the Brit
ish see no need for further confer
ence.
Germans Like British Plan.
Germany's representatives in Paris
are awaiting word from the allied
premiers before presenting the new
German proposals for a reparations
settlement no reply having yet been
received to the request that DR.. Karl
Bergman, the German spokesman,
be heard by the conference.
The German officials are frankly
pleased with the British proposals but
expressed little hope that the British
plan even in its main points would be
by France. They expressed
the fear that France was determined
10 take Independent action unless the
French plan were accepted by the ,
allies
