Dry Forces in
Congress Uneasy
About Outlook
Men in Line for Chairmen
Of Senate and House Com
mittees Regarded
as Vets.

Washington, July I3-The dry
forces in congress. who for several
years have exercised undisputed con-
troll over the legislative machinery
handling prohibition bills in both SEN
ate and house, are looking forward
with some concern to the situation
which seems likely TO confront them
when the next session meets in De-
cember.
BY combination of circumstances
the men now in line for chairmen of
the senate and house judiciary COM
mittees. which have charge OF pro-
hibition measures, are Senator Bran
degee Of Connecticut and Representa-
tive Graham OF Pennsylvania, both
OF whom voted against the 18th
amendment and since have steadfast.
ly refused to be counted among the
drys Senator Brandegree has he
come the ranking member OF his
committee through the successive
deaths OF Senator Nelson OF Mime
sofa and Dillingham; of Vermont.
while Mr.. Graham inherited the rank
ing position in the house committee
through the defeat OF the chairman.
Representative Volstead, in last year S
primary in Minnesota
Not only did Senator Brandegee
oppose the prohibition amendment,
but he also voted against both the
Volstead act and the anti-beer bill.
He took the position that such legis-
lation was unconstitutional and the
drys concede that with a judiciary
chairman holding that view the path
way OF any additional prohibition
legislation to be urged at the coming
session may be somewhat difficult.
Representative Graham. after voting
against the constitutional amendment,
answered present" to his name on
the roll call which passed the Vol.
stead act and also was recorded as
mot voting on the anti.beer bill.
Already some OF the dry leaders
are framing an extensive program
OF legislation for the next congress,
including measure 10 prohibit
American ships from carrying liquor
on the high seas. right which they
have under the recent supreme court
decision by which shipping board YES
sells are forbidden TO exercise by
order OF President Harding. There
also is a move TO make other changes
in the ship liquor provisions as well
as others sections OF the law.
