Should this maneuver prove suc- cessful they will advance to the coun- ter-attack with some of their own proposals for modification of the Volstead act, but admittedly without any hope of. forcing a breach in the dry army. The wet forces will have some re- cruits as @ result of the recent pro- hibition referenda in eight states, but the drys still hold the prepond- erance of numbers in both the house and senate and are certain that they flatten out/any attempts at mogi- fication. Leaders of the wets concede that jonee the drys can bring their pro- posals to a vote they can win, but with crowded calendars at a three months’ session of congress they in- | sist they have the numbers necessary to talk the administration proposals to death, Drys Have Four Measures As congress assembles it faces nearly a score of wet and dry mea- sures, with the administration press> ing for only four—one to tighten up | enforcement of the Volstead act; one | to authorize distillation of medicinal | liquor; one to create separate bureaus of prohibition and customs in the treasury, and one to place prohibi- tion field agents under the civil ser- viee. The wets will concentrate their at- tack on the Goff bill to make the Vol- stead act more drastic and especially on that provision permitting the is- suing of warrants for raids on priv- ate dwellings in which it is known liquors are being made for commer- cial purposes. Other features of this measure are government supervision over ail man- ufacture of malt cereals and the handling of all denatured alcohol and rum. and the searching by the coast. guard of American vessels beyond the 12-mile limit where’ there is reason to believe they are liquor carriers. As a counter proposal the wets Will urge the Edge bill to amend the Vol- stead act so as to make the definition for malt beverages the same as that for ciders and fruit juices—“intoxi- cating in fact.” This would leave to|‘ the courts the determination of what constitutes an intoxicating beer. Will Fight Proposal The drys will fight that proposi- tion to the limit as they insist that enforcement of the Volstea would be practically impossible with the country flooded with beer and ale containing an alcoholic component far in excess of the one-half of one per cent now allowed. When the wets and the drys come to grips, Representatives William D. Upshaw, dry Democrat of Georgia, farewell exchanges on this subject a6 for the senate. ‘With Representative Hill, Repre- sentatives Tinkham, Republican, and Gallivan, Democrat, both of Masse- chusetts, again will make up what the dryg of the house have dubbed the “Three Musketeers.” They will have al F, following this s last, however, as a number of con- gréfemen from the states that voted wet in November—New York, Illinois, Montana—are expected ve in the fight, A 5 ‘the ‘thundering voice .
