VERDICT ON KEC
BEER EXPECTED
Ruling Probably Will Be
Made Saturday on
Draught Issue.

Finishing touches were being put
on Governor Paul v. McNutt's
draught beer decision today. and it
is expected to be made public Sat-
urday.
Indications are that il viii mean
that the spigots can open Monday
as predicted. although the Governor
continues TO mention difficulties in
volved
One of the latest of these is as to
whether or not the keg beer will be
handled through licensed whole
salers. or delivered direct to the re-
tail trade by the brewerieS. This
would apply only TO the Indiana
beers, since both keg and bottled
foreign brews must be handled
through the importers, where the
gallonage tax is collected
Indiana breweries pay this state
levy direct, as well as the national
tax.
Since the state tax is cents a
gallon and nothing in the tax
clause refers to whether it should be
sold in kegs or bottles. this point.
first raised against keg sales, has
been dissolved, the Governor said.
Having announced last week that
he stood ready to give sn opinion
legalizing draught beer whenever it
was asked by the Governor, Attor-
ney-General Philip Lutz Jr.. refused
further comment. upon his return to
the city Thursday night.
He is said to be withholding
further information until McNutt
acts, probably armed with an opin-
ion from Lutz. when he takes a
stand for draught beer.

Counter Plan to u. S. Pro-

BY LAWRENCE :. HAAS
United Press STAFF Correspondent

Copyright. 1888. by United Press
HAVANA, Cuba. Aug. IA re-
liable but unofficial source said to-
day that President Gerardo Mach
ado was proposing to retire from
the presidency in favor of General
Alberto Herrera.
The decision on the part of the
president was described as a coun-
ter-proposal to the peace plan sug-
gested by United States Ambassa-
dor Sumner Welles, whose formula
was said TO include the retirement
of the president.
Inc Machado counter plan would
provide for Herrera TO become pro-
visional president and form a ma
tlonal cabinet.
Ramon Guerra. secretary of the
presidency, cabinet post, told the
United Press he was not informed
of the reported counter-proposal to
make Herrera president. Observers
said the plan would be wholly I'M
acceptable to elements opposed to
Machado. and believed it also would
be unacceptable TO Ambassador
Welles.
Keep Party i'm Power
General Herrara is one of PreSi
dent Machado's right hand men
He was acting secretary of state
during the absence of Secretary
Orestes Ferrara in London and the
United States.
The essential difference between
the Machado plan and the Welles
proposals appeared to be that the
president was insisting on the
right to maintain a member of his
own liberal party as head of the
new regime.
Statements by Machado in an in
terview with the United Press. and
series of political Developments
which on the surface appeared con-
Trajectory, indicated strongly that
Machados counter proposal. prom
ised by Saturday night. would i'm
volve his own retention of powe,
and continuance of American spon.
sored negotiations with opposition
parties.
Previously. the executive commit.
tee of Machado's own liberal party
which he thoroughly dominates
voted a resolution which rejected
the America formula for ending
the passive revolution.
Confident of Solution
While the executive committee
met, the military rulers of Havana
ordered shopkeepers to open their
stores under threat of heavy pen
alties. Frantic negotiations to set
tie a general strike were proceeding
Machado told the United Press hi
would accede. if his party asked
him. as a patriotic gesture. to with
, draw
But he said he was confident
Cuba could solve her own problems
and he would not recognize the
possibility of foreign Intervention
Welles, fully supported by Presi-
dent Roosevelt. kept his own coun-
sci and awaited summons from Ma
chado or Ferrara. He was in con-
slant touch with members of the
various political parties.
With the advent of military rule
there was lessening OF violence in

Thursday night at the Havana
