CONGRESS QUITS
WITHOUT PASSING
DEFICIENCY BILL
No Money Provided for In
come Tax Rebates and
Bonus Distribution.
BIZ United Press

BIZ CnfteJ Press
WASHINGTON, June D.-PresL
dent Coolidge today was faced with
possible necessity Of calling an ex-
ira session Of Congress.
Failure of the urgent deficiency
bill to pass in the last minutes Sat
urday because of a fIibuster by
western reclamationists in the Sen
ate caused the following embarrass~
ments:
/. No money is provided to make
the % per cent reduction in current
taxes authorized by the new tax bill
to those who paid their full taxes
in March. The deficiency bill would
have appropriated $16,240, 900 for
this purpose.
May Delay Bonus
2. No funds are available to pre-
pare during the summer for distri-
button of the soldier bonus and is-
suance OF the policies may be delayed
almost : year. OF the S132. 600. 900
included IN the deficiency bill for the
bonus $82, OOo,o 900 was for Admins
tration.
3. The Coast Guard IS left with
out funds 10 employ the more than
1000 officers and seamen to man its
new rum defense fleet. It's opera
tons will virtually be brought to a

In addition to these embarrass-
ments. 1t let slide the bill ~appropr-
ating more than 500, 900, 900 for con-
~struction Of eight new cruisers and

The Federal Government will

out the funds which the urgent de-
fciency bill that failed TO get through
Congress would have provided. Bud
get Director Lord said today after a
conference with President Coolidge
on the situation.

Lord said that persons who are
due for a refund of % per cent on
income taxes paid last March Will
probably have to DAFT until Deem

BAN ON MEDICAL

Supreme Judges Rule Con-
greSS Had Power to Pass
Willis Campbell Act,
BU United Press

By United Press
WASHINGTON. June 9.-The SUI
preme Court today held constitu-
tionaI the act Of Congress ex-
pressly forb!dding prescription Of
beer for medicinal purposes.
Suits appealed to the court by
James Everards' breweries and Ed
ward and John Burke. Ltd, Of New
York. were argued as one case 10
determine authority of Congress o
deny by legislative act the privilege
of drinking beer under a physicians
prescription.
Lower Federal courts decided Con-
gress was within its constitutional
powers. The brewers appealed on
grounds that the eighteenth amend
ment did not empower Congress to
forbid the use of any sort Of liquor
as a medicine. If beer was forbidden
under a doctors prescription, it was
argued, spurious liquors must also
be forbidden under the same circum-
stances.
Settles Old Dispute
The decision today ended a dispute
that began when Attorney General
Palmer rendered an opinion, March
8. 1921 that the Eighteenth Amend
ment did not prohibit the manufac-
ture Of liquors for medicinal pur-
poses. Thereafter, on Oct. "a, 1921,
the commissioner of Internal Reve-
nue. issued amended regulations pro-
viding a system of permits for the
brewing and distribution through
doctors prescriptions of fixed guam
titles of beer.
A month later Congress passed the
Whilst Campbell act amending the
National prohibition act to forbid ex-
pressIy the use of beer for medicinal
purposes. 1t was on this act that
the court ruled today.
The opinion Of the court was de-
livered by Justice Sanford, newest
member of the Supreme Court
bench.
Congress Upheld
In the unanimous opinion Of the
court, the eighteenth amendment
gave Congress sweeping discretion
airy powers to exercise in enforce
ment. 1t was held that if in the
opinion of Congress prohibition Of
the prescription of beer was neces-
sary to a proper enforcement Of the
whole amendment, the court could
find no reason for questioning such
an act of Congress.
The court stated clearly that this
decision did not reflect upon the
prescription of spiritious or velious
liquors for medicinal uses.
