off the canvas for the last time, Fred
Gardner, member of the commission,
arose from the ringsidc and inquired
heatedlv as to what was keeping
Rioux on the floor. He said purses

pending an Investigation.
Previous TO the knockout, Rioux
had been on the floor four times,
twice without being hit, in the opin-
ion of ringside fans. The Canadian
went to his knees twice as the round

received a punch.

After Rioux went down the first

JURYLESS TRIAL
PLAN DIVIDES
HOUSE DRYS

The fate of the WickerSham
Law Enforcement Commissions
go,called "juryless trial" system of
tightening prohibition enforce
ment was weighed by the Chris
topherson judiciary subcommittee
today while both vets and drys
were preparing for attacks on
other parts of the prohibition
front.
Unable thus far to reach an
agreement on the commissions
plan to revise Federal court pro-
cedure by permitting U. S. Com
u1issioners to hear minor dry law
cases, the subcommittee planned
to consider substitute proposals.
Expand Commission
These include expansion of the
crime commissions system to in
clude all minor Federal law viola
tions, including prohibition, as
proposed by Representative Chris:
topherson (R) of South Dakota,
subcommittee chairman.
Another substitute proposal is
to limit Federal enforcement to
interstate prohibition crimes,
while Representative Stobbs (R.)
of Massachusetts, urged amend
ment of the Jones law by def
nitely defining petty violations"
The law enforcement commits
sion is scheduled to meet again
tomorrow to hear the plea of
Representative Dyer (RO of
Missouri for 275 per cent beer.
Expect Wet Report
The action of Chairman George
w. Wickersham in granting Dyer
a hearing gave rise to reports
among the vets that the COM
mission may make some definite
recommendations on prohibition.
Thus far the commission has re-
fused to take a stand on the
merits of the question, confining
itself to methods of law enforce
ment.
The House Judiciary Committee
is scheduled to open up it's wet
bill hearings" again tomorrow,
with the drys presenting women
witnesses from several cities.
A possible row between wet and
dry members of the committee was
in the making because of the de-
mand of drys for the right of sur
:rebuttal. Although the committee
planned to close its hearings by
giving the vets one day to rebut
dry testimony, the drys now de-
mand the last word. Vets oppose
the request.
Women Answer Women.
Women summoned by the drys
are expected to answer the women
witnesses for the vets. Led by
Mrs. Charles Sabin, of New York
"400." the latter demanded repeal
of the Eighteenth Amendment,
and declared liquor laws are defied
in high" society.
Mrs. Henry w. Peabody, of Bos-
ton, chairman of the women's ma
tional committee for law enforce
ment; Mrs. John F. Suppel, of Bal
timore, president of the General
Federation of Women's Clubs:
Bertha K. Landes. ex-mayor of
Seattle and Mrs. Jesse Nicholson,
OF Baltimore, president of the
Women's Democratic League for
Law Enforcement, will testify for
the drys.
Representative LaGuardia CRJ
OF New York, invited a reply from
Henry Ford, when he wrote the
auto magnate declaring that his
action in establishing a tractor
factory in Cork, Ireland, while say
ing he would quit making automo-
'biles if the United States went wet,
was inconsistent.
