WILSON NOT TO SUSPEND LAW
CABLE TO WHITE HOUSE SAYS;
HAS NO POWER TO RAISE BAN
Must Wait Until 'Termination of the Demobolization
of the Troops and I Cannot Say That That Has
Been-Accomplished," President States in
Message Will Act Later.
Washington, June 28. President Wilson has decided he
cannot legally lift the wartime prohibition ban before the
country goes dry at midnight Monday, but he expects to do
so a3 soon as thereafter as his power has been made clear
by the completion of demobilization.
In a cablegram made public
dent said he was convinced, after consultation with his legal
advisers, that he had no authority to act at this time.
"When demobilization is termi-5
nated," he continued, "my power to
act without congressional action will
be exercised."
The message expressed no opinion
as to the authority of the president
when he raises the ban, to make
his action applicable only to beer
and wine.
Tumulty's Statement.
Secretary Tumulty gave out the
following statement:
The secretary to the president at
the White House tonight made pub
lic the following cable from the
president with reference to wartime
prohibition:
I am convinced that the attor
ney general is right in advising
me that I have no legal power at
this time in the matter of the ban
on liquor. Under the act of No
vember, 1918, my power to take
action is restricted. The act pro
vides that after June 30, 1919, un
til the conclusion of the present
war and thereafter until the termi
nation of demobilization, the date
sf which shall be determined and
proclaimed by the president, it
shall be unlawful, etc.
This law does not specify that
the ban shall be lifted with the
signing of peace but with the ter
mination of the demobilization of
the troops and I cannot say that
has been accomplished. My in
formation from the War depart
ment is that there is still 1,000,000
men in the service under the emer
gency call. It is clear, therefore,
that the failure of congress to act
upon the suggestion contained in
my message of the 20th of May,
1919, asking for a repeal of the act
of November 21, 1918, so far as it
applies to wines and beer, makes
it impossible to act in this matter
at this time.
When demobilization is termi
nated, my power to act without
congressional action will be exer
cised. ,
WOODROW WILSON.
No Liquor Wirl Be Sold.
Refusal of President Wilson to act
at this time means that the long
arm of the wartime law will reach
out quietly at midnight Monday and
close the door of every liquor estab
lishment on American soil.
Next in public interest to an
nouncement of the president's atti
tude comes the question "how soon
will the army be demobilized?"
There was strong belief in some
quarters tonight that this date would
not be long delayed, in view of the
signing of the treaty, the action of
congress in reducing the size of the
army and the effort of the govern
ment to bring back all troops from
abroad as speedily as it is humane
ly possible.
The president's emphatic an
nouncement as to what he would
do when demobilization "is termi
nated" was exactly in line with the
opinion of members of the house
judiciary committee expressed
heretofore that it did not require
congressional action to outhorixe
him to declare wartime prohibition
ended.

out, much sooner than most people

Chicago, June 28. Old King Al

is expected to be the biggest cir

For days carpenters have been

enough to make all China giggle is
on tap in the Loop ,and everything
else is in readiness, even to the
famous cafe fountains where bold
women are wont to go wading after
the goldfish.
Popular hotels, cafes and wine
rooms have been stormed by the
drinking, dancing public for table
reservations for Monday night; and,
strangely enough, every room has
been reserved for Tuesday morning
at a large Chicago "drink cure" hos
pital. "When Alcohol steps out, Re
morse will enter," said a represena
tive of one drink-cure sanitarium.
"Many persons have arranged foi
treatment beginning July 1, and we
have made our plans for the over
flow accordingly. Most of these pa
tients have delayed treatment until
after the first shock of a bone-dry
Chicago."
The problems of the liquor-cure
institution fade into the background
when compared with those of the
big cafe proprietor, who, after fill
ing every possible inch of space
with tables, is forced to turn away
some of his oldest patrons because
of the flood of earlier reservations
that almost clogged the mails.
Enough Liquor For All.
"But there will be liquor for all,
whether seated or standing," is the
composite edict of the hotel and
cafe men. Despite the 90,000,000
gallons of whisky in bonded ware
houses of the country, there will be
enough liquor in decanters and on
shelves of Chicago to supply all de
mands, it is declared.

SIGNING OF PEACE
MAY TERMINATE
FEDERAL CONTROL
Many Private Activities We're
Under Government Supervi
sion Only for War.
Washington, June 28. Now that
the peace treaty has been signed,
legal officers of the government
probably Attorney General Palmer
will have to decide whether the
signing terminates government con
trol or supervision of many private
activities, within the meaning of the
laws which took them over.
"The end of the war," "the ter
mination of the war," "during the
emergency," "when a state of war
is ended" and "with the coming of
peace" are some of the terms which
have been used in the multitude of
wartime laws. The legal questions
involved are apparent. Besides that,
measures now are pending to sus
pend wartime control, notably in the
case of telephone and telegraph
wires. Some government controls,
such as food and fuel, actually long
since Wave ceased to function. The
legal limitations placed on some of
the principal wartime government
controls are expressed in the laws
as follows:
Railroads Twenty-one , months
after the end of the war.
Telegraph and Telephone Ratifi
cation of peace treaty or sooner, in
trie discretion of the president
Food and Fuel When peace is
proclaimed.
Espionage Act End of the war.
War trade board and export con
trol End of the war.
War finance corporation Six
months after termination of the war.
Reorganization of government bu
reaus under the Overman law Six
months after the war.
Alien property custodian As con
gress directs.
Government operation of ships
Five years after the war.
Agricultural s t i m u 1 a t i o n Six
months after the present emergency.
In fact, most of these government
controls actually have ceased func
tioning or rapidly are doing so, but
each one involves legal questions of
when it ends.
The government insurance of
ships through the war risk bureau
ceases with the "termination of the
war." The bureau for paving allot
ments to dependents of enlisted men
rea?es one month after the war.
The bureau for paying-death bene
fits is permanent.

which somewhat dimmed the expectations of those who had

The absence of the Chinese delegates, who at the last'

Never Would Have Signed.
To M. Clemenceau's stern warn

would be expected and held to ob

and copletely, the German delegates,
through Dr. Haniel Von Hamhausen,
replied, after returning to the hotel,

eral tone of the sentiment in th fe
historic sitting was one rather oF'lJ,'Vi

The ceremony came to a dramatic VA
close in fact, reached its highest " .
dramatic pitch with the wildly en
thusiastic reception of President
Wilson, M. Clemenceau and Mr. , ,
Lloyd George, by the crowds out
side the palace, who ignored or dis
regarded the minor discords of the ', .
day. They tore the three statesman
from their escorts and almost car- ' ' ;
ried them bodily in their progress '
through the chateau grounds, to "
watch the playing of the fountains
a part of the programme which had
been planned as a dignified state
processional of all the plenipoten
tiares. . -
Planned Deliberately.
The ceremony otherwise had been
planned deliberately to be austere,
befitting the sorrows and suffering';,,
of almost five years and the lack of -7
impressiveness and picturesque col- )
or, of which many spectators, who"
naa expected a magnificent state
pageant, complained, was a matter i
of design, not merely omission. ' r
ine actual ceremony was far
shorter than had been expected,' in "
view of the number of signatures
which were to be appended to the
treaty and the two accompanying
conventions, ending a bare 49 min- '
utes after the hour set for the open
ing. The proceedings were carried '
out without surface incidents, since
the Germans were silent, and the
Chinese refusal to sign was evident
only by the vacant chairs. ' The '
sole words to be recorded in the
protocol of the conference were M.
Clemenceau's short opening allocu
tion, with its brief, stern warning to
the Germans, and his equally ters
phrases declaring the ceremony
closed.
Goose Quills Used.
The intervening three-quarters of
an hour was marked by the scratch-
ing of big goose quills or modern
steel pens, which most of the dele
gates preferred, and the steady pro
cession of delegation after delega
tion to the seats at the three tables
within the enclosures upon which ' ,
the documents were placed for sig
nature. Contrary to expectations the Ger
mans were called to sign first, and "
no precedence was given M. Clemen
ceau. President Wilson or Mr. Lloyd
George, who in the peace treaty ap- '
pear only as members of the respec
tive delegations and discard the dig
nities and responsibilities which dur
ing the negotians were summed up
in the phrase "The big three."
The two German delegates arose
without a word at M. Clemenceau's
bidding and placed upon the treaty
the sign manuals which German gov
ernment leaders declared until re
cently never would be appended to
it. It was too distant to watch,
even with glasses, the expression
on the faces of the German pleni
potentiaries during the ceremony, "
