GOV. SMITH AGAIN
PLEADS FOR BEER BILL
In Annual Message to Legislature
He Asks That Congress be
Memoralized for Beer
THE REPEAL ACT FAILS
Repeal of State Law Does Not
Bring Back Beer; Governor
Wants Congress to Act

The New York legislature convened
for its 1924 session January 2 and
heard Governor Smith outline in his
annual message the subjects which
will form the basis for forensic battles
in the next few months. Included in
his message was declaration for
further efforts for modification of the
Volstead act. He urged that New
York"s representatives be asked to
lay before the present Congress a
memorial to Congress adopted by the
last legislature. The governor said:
The last session of the Legislature
memorialized Congress by resolution
to change the present narrow, sense
less definition of what constitutes all
intoxicating beverage as set forth in
the Volstead act, to the end that there
may be permitted the making and sale
of light wines and beers under the
careful restrictions set forth in our
legislative enactment OF 1920" (This
enactment was law legalizing the
making and sale of 2.75 per cent beer,
which was declared to be unconstitu-
tonal by the supreme court.)
Subsequently the legislature further
defined the policy of the state in rela-
ton to the subject by the repeal of the
state law, which in effect left enforce
ment of the Volstead law with both
the state and the federal governments,
and left prosecution under the Vol
stead act entirely with the federal gov
crnment. 1t must be remembered,
however, that this did not and can not
and will not bring about change in
the present definition OF what con-
stitutes an intoxicant. An amendment
to the .Volstead act only is possible by
the Congress Of the United States"
Un other words, Governor Smith adj
mits that both he and the state legs-
lature arc powcrless so long as New
York is one OF the United States, to
give the thirsty New Yorker his stein
of beer.)
"Inasmuch as we have a new Con-
gress now in session, ] suggest that by
resolution properly adopted you call
the attention OF our representatives
from this state to the action OF last
winter and request thefi to lay it be-

ACTION is BROUGHT ON
HEAVY DRINKING BASIS

\ suit recently brought in western
court indicates the change OF opinion
in this country with regard to drunk
enness that has come to pass. during
recent years. A far greater number
of people now than formerly consider
drunkenness a disgrace. Mrs. .Vir-
ginia Bridger Hahn, Kansas City,
Kansas, has brought suit for a million
dollars against a moving picture COM
pany. She is the daughter of James
Bridger, famous scout and plainsman
who plays a prominent part in a pic
turc made from novel written by
Emerson Hough. According to petit
ton the picture represents Bridger as
a heavy drinkcr and a person who
often became intoxicated. Mrs. Hahn
declares that her parentagc is brought
into question by the picture and she
asserts that her father was an upright,
honorable man and was never known
to have drunk to excess.

EUROPEAN DOCTORS
DECLARE u. s. DRY

Prohibition Already Has Improved
Health, Experts Body Says

Geneva, December 3l.-(By the As
ISOLATED Press )-Physicians represent
ing Great Britain, Jugoslavia, Bel
GUM, Poland and Norway went OH rec
ord at the health experts meeting at
Geneva as saying prohibition was
proving success in the United
States, according to statement yes
terday by DR.. Ludwig Rajchman. di-
rector of the health organization of the
League of Nations.
A statement was given out recently
by the information section of the
league that a group of European ply
sicians, who recently visited America
under the auspices OF the league and
the Rockefeller foundation, had declar-
ed that prohibition would ''eventu-
ally prove to be real thing in the

ing Russians and Germans, have been

suits of their investigation, which
began at Washington and covered the
southern states, as part of a plan to
determine health conditions i'll all .coun-
tries.
DR.. Rajchman said as the meetings
were private he did not believe it fair

after visiting America, reported pro-
hibition working well, as it might pre-
vent freedom of discussion in the flu

Rajchman are: Great Britain, DR..
Charles Porter; Jugosavia, Dr. Kuhn;
Belgium, DR.. Van Boeckel, and DR..

Norway, Dir. Andersen.
Doubt Wisdom of Publicity
There were evidences in some league
circles yesterday of divided views re-
garding the wisdom of the leagues Civ
ing publicity to the experts delib-
erations. This is based on the fear
that the opinion might arise in the
United States that the medical experts
would have done better to keep off the
subject, which is topic of domestic
debate.
DR.. Rajchman said the experts went
to the United States not to criticize
but to learn, and the general report
to be made to the health organism OF
the league, would be on the question
Have they benefited by their Amer
lean trip?"
According to the statement given
out BY the information section of the
league, one group of European physi-
clans reported public health conditions
in the United States improved by the
dry regime; they said the prohibition
law was broken frequently, but de-
clared when the present generation
