 New Beer Bill
 Washington, December 6-(UP) - The house democratic leader ship intent on speeding passage of prohibition modification legisla- tion today made public the text of a tentatively sponsored "wine and beer bill," drafted by Chair man Collier of the Ways and Means. Committee.
 The Collier bill, which goes be- fore the committee tomorrow for consideration, provides for 2.75 per cent alcohol peer by weight and "naturally fermented" wines.
 The measure was prepared for Introduction in the house today.
 Chairman Collier said the pres ent draft was tentative" but could be considered as the basis for any modification legislation acted up- on by the house at the present session.
 The bill would place a tax of $500 barrel on beer, lager beer, ale, porter ana similar fermented liquor. Wine would be taxed on a basis of 20 cents per gallon.
 The beer tax, $1.00 less per bar rel than the prohibition im- port, was estimated by Collier to mean 300,000,000 in additional revenue annually. He said he had no estimates on possible revenue from the wine tax, but thought it would be a great deal less than that raised from beer.
 Manufacture of alcoholic beer would be restricted to brewers se- curing permits from the federal government. No permits would be permitted in any state. territory, or the District of Columbia, or any political subdivision where the manufacture of alcoholic beverages was prohibited by local statutes.
 The provision of the bill dealing with the manufacture and sale of light wines would leave the decis- ion as to their intoxicating charac- ter entirely with the courts;
 The section would merely legal ize the manufacture, transporta- ton, exportation and sale of "non- intoxicating vinous liquors" made by natural fermentation of grape juice and without the addition of distilled spirits.

LAME DUCKS DID TIT

Washington, Dec 6.-(UP)- Speaker Garner today blamed lame duck votes" for the failure of his unqualified prohibition re- peal amendment to pass the house yesterday by the necessary two- thirds majority.
 He said he was satisfied his course in forcing an immediate de- cision on repeal had been for the best and he would do the same thing over"
 'srhe immediate effect of the re- jection of repeal by lame duck votes will be to speed ratification of the Norris amendment to abol- ish lame duck sessions" the speak CT said.
 T predict that before June the amendment will be ratified by the necessary number of states and it would not surprise me if all 4s ratified"

market today carrying prices down in
a general and sharp reaction. At the

The market was weakest in the last
hour and there was no semblance of a
rally at the close. Bonds Of the specu-
lative and semi-speculatiye type went
down with stocks Commodities were

under way and eventually stocks will
reflect that recovery. Ill-advised
