resting. on the side of William T. Til
den and William NJ. Johnston in their
final match against national doubles
champions, Vincent Richard and r.
Norris Williams, 60, GA, 17-15
The beaten team, which had won the
two previous matcheseon Monday and
Tuesday, carried Americas first two
ranking players through one of the
longest and most brilliantly played
battles of tennis history in the final
set. For 80 games, service prevailed
without a single break and then the
national singles title holder and his
far west partner smashed through
Richard for advantage Johnston then
battered his way throuhg the 32nd
game for a victory without losing a
point. Few doubles encounters on the
historic Westside courts have produced
more sensational tennis than today S
struggle between members of the big
four. So strong and accurately placed
were the services of each player and
so decisive were the volleys and smash
ing at the net, that only seven of the
games advanced as far as deuce More
and but four breaks through service
in the entire match.

Judiciary Must Yet Ap- prove - Report Finds 18th Amendment "Mor- ally Right and EcOnom- ically Wise"

Washington. June 3 P-Indef- nite postpouement of all the pro- posals for modification of the dry laws and for a national prohibition referendum was recommended today by the senate prohibition committee.
 This action still is subject to ap- proval by the judiciary committee, of which the prohibition committed is part, but fl is expected to con- cur.
 The report of the prohibition com mitee was drawn by Chairman Means. It said:
 Approves of 18th Amendment
 "The 18th amendment to the con- stitution of the United States was ratified according 10 proclamation of the secretary of state, Jan. 29, 1919. We believe this amendment to be morally right and economical ly wise.
 "So long as this agreement is q part of our fundamental law it is the duty of all officers, legislative, executive and judicial, to aid in it's enforcement.
 e'The advocates of modification of the present prohibition law propose to weaken the same. They seek to directly or indirectly authorize the manufacture and sale of intoXicat- ing beverages. This is contrary to the spirit and intent of the 18th amendment.
 "The constitution is grant of powers. Those powers are limited and such limits are not to be tran seconded. A nationally referendum is not provided for and it is our belief that it was not the intention of the framers of the constitution that a national referendum would ever be attempted. No laws have been en- acted which provide machinery CT the holding of such a referendum"
 Decision No Surprise
 Tho subcommittee decision did not surprise the modifcationists. Tn anticipation Of it they already have introduced several of their bills as amendments to the administration measure for tightening enforcement now on the senate calendar. There is little likelihood, however, that this Dill will come to a vote at the pres ont session.
 Only three of the five members of the committee were present when inc subcommittee acted. They were Means. Golf (West Virginia) and Harreld (Oklahoma), all .repubH- cans. The other members are Walsh, democrat Montana), a dry; Reed, democrat (MissourD, a leader of the vets.
