eral states shall have concurrent to enforce this

gress the several states to defeat hwart the proh
bition, but only to enforce it by appropriate means"

CONGRESS ON lob
AFTER HOLIDAYS
Progressive Fight and Tax
Reduction Is Schedule,

BIZ United Press
WASHINGTON, Jan. 3.-Congress
came back today from its holiday
the Senate to face a rejuvenated pro
gressive fight and the House to tussle
with tax reduction.
Senator La Toilette, practical die
tator" in the upper House with his
balance of power, plans to make his
first appearance and bolster the stand
against the election of regular Re
publican to the chairmanship Of the
Interstate Commerce Committee.
1t Is La Follette's idea to stick be-
hind Senator Howell, Nebraska Re
publican, or Senator Couzens, Michi-
gan, Republican, and if neither can
win, to elect Smith, the Democrat.
