LAW IS MADE i IESSJASTIC Hope For “Wets” In-Senate Ac-, ticn — Home Brewing and Homemade Light Wines and Cider Authorized In Bill. Washington, Aug. 12.—Prohibition ! enforcement legislation advanced another step in congress today when the Senate judiciary committee began consideration of the bill passed by the I House last June, as amended and liber alized by the judiciarv subcommittee. The sub-committee eliminated sev eral drastic house provisions and mo- ' dified others. In its work the sub- i committee, comprising Senators Sler- ! ling, republican, South Dakota, chair man: Fall, of New Mexico, and Nor ris, of Nebraska, republicans, and Over man. of North Carolina, Walsh of Mon tana, and King, of Utah, democrats, first revised the Senate enforcement bill and then Incorporated the House bill. The subcommittee left unchanged the House definition of intoxicating bever ages as those containing ^ of 1 per cent or more of alcohol. As revised the bill will not Interfere , with storage and personal use of in toxicating liquors in homes. Home Manufacture. i roDaDiy tne most UDerat ameniimeni to the House bill Is a provision exempt- | ing from penalties any person “man ufacturing non-intoxicating cider and fruit juices exclusively for use in his house.” ! This would permit home manufact- j ure of light wines and cider for person al consumption, as the amendment, except for implication in connection j with the definition of intoxicants does not define "non-intoxicating” bever- : ages. 1 Stricken from the House bill was the provision making it unlawful for per sons to be intoxicated or to drink liquor on trains, street cars, jitneys, boats or other public conveyances. s Another relaxation of the House bill was made in changing its provision for penalizing persons having "reason to j believe their property is being used un lawfully.” The Senate amendment requires “personal knowledge” of such use. The House provision declaring that after February 1, 1920, the possession of liquor unathorized by the law shall be primu facie evidence that it is be ing kept, for sale is retained and strengthened by an addition providing , that, in proceedings under this section, the burden of proof shall be on de- ' fendants to prove that such beverages do not contain more than one-half per cent alcohol. Retain Exemptions. j The sub-committee revision retains the following exemptions as provided by the House; Denatured alcohol, medical purposes, ' patent medicines, toilet and medical preparations, flavoring extracts, syrups, 1 vinegar and fruit juices. The subcom- j tniitee, however, struck out the House clause that such articles should be “non potable” prescribing merely that they must be “unfit for beverage purposes.” A House caluse requiring alcoholic content of toilet, medicinal and jtntl- , septic articles to be labeled was strick- j en out. Retaining the Hous provision pro- j hibiting manufacture, sale, purchase, i transportation or prescription of intox icants without a permit from the in ternal revenue commissioner, the re vised bill contains a provision that such acts shall be expressly authorized upon receipt of permits. v Extend Permit Limit. The House limit of 10 days on per mits to purchase intoxicants also is extended in the revised bill to 90 days. Pharmacists only may sell at retail and licensed physicians only may prescribe liquor. The House requirement for physical examination by physicians of applicants for liquor prescriptions, however, was eliminated. The House provision limiting physic ians dispensing to one pint of liquor in 10 days to the same person is retained, but modified to provide that such limi tation shall apply only to prescrip tions “to be taken internally.” More rigorous provisions guarding and religious purposes are provided by a provision requiring issuance of such permits only to ministers, rabbis or other ecclesiatics. Advertising Provisions. House provisions regarding adver tising of beverages are made more stringent in some respects and more «—■liberal in others. The sub-committee struck out provisions prohibiting sign or bill board advertising, but added a clause penalizing advertisement of in- ! toxicants anywhere by any means or method. Also sti cken out was a House clause authorizing obliteration of liquor ad- | vertlsing or the use of pictures of a distillery, bottle, keg, barrel or other receptacle In advertisements. A new , clause permits manufacturers and druggists to advertise alcohol in trade journals. „ Retaining the House provision against advertisement of compounds, j preparations or formulas for manu facture of intoxicants, the sub-com- | inittee strengthened this section by i prohibiting also the advertisement of any '‘utensil, contrivance or machine” for such purposes.

Becoming Likely. Washington, Aug. 12.—liumors per sist here of a change in the adminis tration's Mexican policy. Not only is it said the government will be more firm in its diplomatic stand, but there are even rumors of armed interven tion current in- army circles. It is understood this government will take a more positive stand from now on against outrages on Americans and that if the present Mexican presiden tial campaign flares up into a new revolution and turmoil is threatened, serious consideration will be given to more drastic measures in some quar ters. The demand of Secretary Baker and the war department for 510.000 troops is thought to be made with Mexican possibilities in mind. Rail Administration Reports Re turn at Most Points—Chicago and New England Districts Remain Strike Centers. Washington. Aug. 12.—Between 15, 000 and 25,000 unauthorized railroad shop strikers returned to work this morning in response to President Wil son's decision that there would be no wage conferences while the men were out, it was said at the railroad admin istration today. Reports here were that practically all men are back at work west of the Mississippi; more than 50 per cent still out in Chicago, Ohio and Central West; all back in Jhe south except at Atlanta, and that New England shops still are almost without work men, According to telegrams received at the railroad administration, 6,000 men returned today at Baltimore and 5,000 at Kansas City. All shops are operating, officials said, on the Seaboard Airline. Other towns where men are reported to have gone back to work are Macon, Ga., Richmond, Nashville, Lexington, Min neapolis, St. Paul, Cincinnati. Cleveland and Calumbus. Some it was said, have returned to shops at Indianapolis. Strikers also went back at 25 points in Wisconsin. STRIKERS LESS RADICAL. Chicago, Aug. 11.—A spirit of con ciliation was apparent today among striking railway shopmen in the Chi cago district, although it was decided last night no immediate answer will be made* to the administration's re quest that men go back to work before their demands are taken up. In a telegram to subdivision coun cils, J. D. Sanders, secretary of the Chicago council, invited delegates to a meeting Thursday night to discuss the situation. It was stated the men would waive all other grievances if the wage demand was granted. Twenty-eight thousand men were re ported still out. Sanders denied re ports that men in great numbers were returning to work. “They are ready to go back," he said, "when Washington authorities are ready to talk business.” Widening of the breach between local units and the international organiza tion made apparent with the receipt of a telegram from B. M. Jewell, head of the railway division of the American Federation of Labor, declaring that striking locals would not be permitted to cast ballots in the vote being taken on the question of a strike August 24. Reports were received at council headquarters that strikers had burned some of the ballots sent out from in ternational headquarters.

Aug. 11.— Seven bodies, charred beyond identi fication were at the morgue here today, following last night's fire at Dominion Park, an amusement resort. It Is believed three of -• lil'emrn. 200 deputy sheriffs ar.d th-j last of thb suite troops assigned to rare riot duty were withdrawn from file stool: yards today In the hope that the striking employes of the packers might be induced to return to work. About 1,000 patrolmen and 100 depu ty sheriffs still are on duty in the vi cinity of the stock yards. President Martin Murphy, of the stock yards labor council, said 4he men would not return to work unt.l every guard had been withdrawn and permission grunted labor organizers to unionize the 9.000 negroes employed at the plants. Statement to Shippers. President Everett C: llrown. of the Chicago Live Stock Exchange, issued the following statement this afternsqn on the strike situation in the packing houses: "The yards are cleaned up of all stale and fresh stocks and the killers are doing business in all the larger plants. A conservative estimate is that we can handle 10,000 hogs a day. or about 90, 000 a week under present c onflitions, against 120,000 as the normal figure at this season of the year. “With tho active demand for cattle for shipping it is estimated that the market can handle 12,000 cattle a day. It is generally believed that shippers who can get their stock to market dur ing the strike will receive more than when ail the workers come back." Union officials declare that of 43,559 employed in the stock yards, 36,500 are out, while the packers insist that not more than 10,000 are on strike. They reported that the large plants still are operating, but admit they are not run ning more than 50 per cent of capacity. If the unions press their claims and the police guard is not withdrawn, it was predicted 70.000 men will be thrown out of work, and the meat in dustry tied completely up. The strike would affect the whole country, since shipments of livestock to the Chi cago yards would have to be curtailed or entirely stopped.
