THERE ARE REASONS to believe
that the next session of Congress
will witness a fight over prohibition
more intense than any which have
taken place since the passage Of the
Volstead act Senators and con-
gressmen opposed to the bone dry
prohibition law will make a strong
move for liberalization on the ground
that the government is finding it
impossible to enforce the law in spite
Of all the money that is being ex-
pended for that purpose. Dry forces
are as equally insistent on the law as
it NOW stands, charging that any eff
forts at amendment are high
treason" because they attack in
effect, the Constitution. In the
meantime, the row in the treasury
between Secretary Andrews, the
new prohibition director, and Com
missioner Haynes, goes on under
cover, with Haynes still sticking on
the job though everything that he
had to do has been transferred TO
other hands or other departments
THOUGH HE HAS rejected all
friendly overtures from Administra-
ton Republicans, Senator Brookhart
of Iowa appears destined to retain
his seat in the senate despite the
contest brought by his defeated
Democratic opponent and the re-
count now going on at the capitol.
Republican leaders fear that, should
Brookhart be thrown out of his seat
now, he would be a candidate again
in the next election and make things
hot for Senator Cummins, one OF the
wheel horses Of the administration.
Cummns' friends are said to have
suggested 10 the senate committee,
which IS handling the case, that
Br0okhart be treated with absolute
fairness even though he is an avowed
enemy Of the administration and has
been read out Of the Republican
party.
