Washington, June 4. -A niar.'
right to store liquor in his houie
for the long dry period after July 1
stood up against an attack on that
provision of the prohibition enforce
ment bill before the house judiciary
commit tee.
Near the end of an all-nay .ses
sion, the committee voted down ai:
amendment which would have made
it unlawful for a citizen to have
liquor in his possession struck out
a section which would have pre
vented "use" by a citizen of liquor
in his private dwelling and decided
that in the matter of general en
forcement there would be no differ
ence between wartime and constitu
tional prohibition.-
Even with this and other changes,
the bill as it will be reported out
Wednesday or Thursday is consid
ered all-embracing.
So drastic are its provisions,
members of the committee said, that
while a man may put a keg of beer
in his cellar, he may be convicted
and fined if, for instance, he wears
a watch fob on which there is a
picture of the keg as an advertise
ment. Seme Minor Changes Made.
In a general consideration of the
measure the committee made minor
changes, but the principal fight was
over the question of the right of
home storage for personal uses.
Representative Morgan. democrat,
of Oklahoma endeavored to have
stricken out the section reading that
"it shall not be unlawful to possess
liquor in one's private dwelling
while the same is occupied and used
by him only as his dwelling."
Ardent prohibitionists on the
committee voted against the Morgan
proposal for the reason, they said,
that nothing was to be gained by
enacting a law so drastic as to
arouse the hostility of people who
rejoiced that the day of the saloon
had ended. Prohibition members
supported an amendment eliminat
ing the proviso that the liquor must
be obtained and placed in storage
prior to date the act would become
effective. As amended the section
reads "that such liquor need not be
reported, provided the burden of
showing that possession is legal is
upon the possessor."
No Particular Fight.
Representative Gard, democrat, of
Ohio led the fight to strike from
the bill the word "use" as applied
to the right of homo consumption.
His motion to amend also included
the striking out of the words "give
away." "receive" and "possess," but
the committee insisted that these
should stand.
It was said there was no particu
lar fight on Mr. Gard's proposal and
as amended the section stands:
That no person shall on or after
the date when the 18th amend
ment to the constitution of the
United States goes into effect, nor
while the war prohibition act. shall
be in force, manufacture, sell,
barter, give away, transport, import,
export, deliver, furnish, receive or
possess any intoxicating liquors ex
cept as authorized in this act and
all the provisions of this act shall
be literally construed to the end
that intoxicating liquor as a bev
erage may be prohibited. Liquor
for non-beverage purposes and wine
for sacramental purposes may lie
purchased, sold, transported and
used as herein provided.
