ROOSEVELT SIGNS
CODE FOR BREWERS

WASHINGTON, Dec. 5. (UP).
Justice Let's Of the District Of
Columbia supreme court today
dismissed a petition for a writ
seeking to restrain Acting Secre-
tary Of State Phillips from pro-
claiming the ratification of the
prohibition repeal amendment.
The writ was sought by Canon
William Sheafe Chase, Brooklyn,
N. Y, and Rev. George S. Dun
can of Washington, of the Inter-.
national Reform league. They
contended ratification conven-
ton were not held in the manner
contemplated by the constitution.
Justice Let's said even if the pc
titioners were entitled to the re-
lief sought it be futile to grant
it because under a supreme court
ruling, constitutional amend
ments become affective the mo-
ment the requisite number of
states ratify it, and that procla-
nation by the secretary OF state
il a mere formality.
