WASHINGTON 5E iTiiiiii

BY HARRY B. HUNT
NEA Service Writer

W ZAk94AAAN - + 49,
a refreshing draft of optimism, al
ter the pessimism that has blanket
ed Washington during the days of
oil and graft investigations, comes
the cheerful hopefulness of the
beer brigade.
Hopefully if not expectantly.
they have descended en- masse on
the House Judiciary Committee to
petition and implore that the Vol.
stead lid be lifted to permit foam
ing brew which may contain up to
2.75 per cent of alcohol.
The present limit of one-half of
one per cent kick in beer, they in
sist, is driving thousands to drink
hard drink. It is making million
ares of our bootleggers, running dis
positions and digestions, filling
asylums and graveyards and max
ing lawbreakers of high and low
alikel
Sam Gompers, champion of the
workers right to life, liberty and
happiness, tells the committee that
all these were infringed by the
ban on beer.
Sam argued that far from having
detrimental effect on labor, a
good, palatable, nourishing beer,
with warmth in it," would do more
to stimulate sobriety and earnest
effort and contentment than all the
"uplift" work of all the social and
civic agencies in Christendom.
s. *
For the convenience of the com
mittee, 81 "beer bills" proposing
modification of the Volstead per-
centage of alcohol, have been con-
solidated in the one hearing.
The drys, duly notified, are on
hand to drink in the testimony and
repare for rebuttal. Mostly they
are middle aged or elderly, more
than half of them women. Many
display w. G. T. U. ribbons, laid
away in mothballs when the 18th
amendment was enacted, but res
directed for the campaign to pre-
vent any breach in the prohibition
berrier.
The least conspicuous Of the dry
forces sits away over on the left
side of the big room, a note pad
on his kne-, jotting down the high
spots Of the wet arguments.
It's Wayne B. Wheeler, wheel
horse of prohibition, general counsel
and director of the national Anti
Saloon League.
Judge Priest Of Missouri, rudy
faced, white mustached, benevolent
looking, who says he never drank
over perhaps a dozen bottles OF
beer" in his life, but who holds he
ought to have the right to drink
it if he wished, argues the lega
aspect of prohibition.

"But the states, including Mis-
souri,, duly ratified the amendment
didn't they?" inquiries Foster O.
Ohio.
Yes"
'Then the only point at issue il
whether 2.75 per cent beer is with
in the prohibition of Intoxicating
beverages" the chair holds.
