PETITION WILSON {10,721 against 13, of all kinds that were renewed in New York City, includ hotels is 6,462 against 6866 last y nd in the State GORESS PASSED Brewers Hold Enforcement Measure Is Unconstitutional and Not Necessary. WASHINGTON, Oct. 18.—The United States Brewers’ Association, contend- ing that the Prohibition Enforcement Bill is unconstitutional, to-day urged President Wilson to veto it, in a pe- tition which Secretary Tumulty made public. The association submits a le- gal argument made by Elihu Root, William Guthrie and William L. Mar- bury, The. Enforcement Bill reached the White House to-day, although 4t was signed by the Vice President and Speaker Gillett, It 1s had not expected it will reach the White |, early this afternoon and! Lo House will be sent immediately to the Attor- ney General for an opinion as to its constitutionality. The brewers’ petition quotes the President's statement in his procia- mations of Jan, 30 and March 4 aud his message to Congress of May 20, that there is now no war emergency calling for legislation like the En- forcement Bill. It says the members of the associa- tion represent an investment of ap- proximately $500,000,000 and that they employ more than 50,000 persons. “Based on the present tax on beer,” says the petition, “and the prevailing wage scale and cost of materials, the business of thése concerns may be estimated at $525,000,000 per annum, of which $21,000,000 would be pay- ablé to the United States Government for internal revenue taxes, regardless entirely of the large sums further to be paid for theome tax, war tax, cor- poration tax, real estate tax, &c. It asserts ‘that the breweries have complied with all the various war regulations and that “so far as they are manufacturing or producing and selling malt liquor for beverage pur- poses at the present time, are confin- ing themselves to the manufacturo and sale of a non-intoxicating beer containing not to exceed 2% per cent. of alcohol by weight.” “If it be urged,” says the peittion, “that the definitive treaty of peace has not yet been ratified and that it is conceivable that some war emer- gency or hecessity may yet arise b fore demobilization is completed, the answer is. that under the existing legislation ample power is invested in the President to safeguard the man power and productive efficiency of the Nation and to prevent the manufacture and sale of any bever- age, whether intoxicating or not, which would consume food products or tend to diminish man power or productive efficiency, if any such measure should be become neces- sary.” ‘The petition declares that the “year of grace” given to the brewers under the Eighteenth Amendment has al- ready been greatly curtailed by the It says that the guarantee of that year con- tained in the amendment was pro- posed by Congress and acted upon while the war was at its height, and that no one then conceived it possible that the claim or pretense of war necessity or urgency would be in- voked after the war had practically ended in order to withdraw from and deny to the brewers the benefit of the year expressly guaranteed them by the amendment. ASK THAT WILSON VETO ORY LAW BILL Civil Service Reform League Wires President It Opens Way for Blackmail and Inefficiency. The National Civil Service Reform League, of which Samuel H. Ordway is President and Charles E. Hughes and Elihu Root are Vice Presidents, announced yesterday it had asked President Wilson to veto the War Prohibition Bill, which provides regu- lations for the enforcement of the constitutional amendment, The league sent a telegram to the President in which it stated: “The bill removes from the juris-|* diction of the Civil Service Commis- sion ‘persons authorized to issue per- mits, and agents and inspectors in the fleld service.” The Civil c Commission has certified to Con: that it is prepared to meet empioy- ment needs and promptly certify eligibles. in the presence of this declaration from your commission no excuse exists for a bad spoils raid.

S\ ps After the coat is practically made, the backing of the collar is “fitted” on and hand-felled or stitched. This assures a fit and “hang” that is not possible otherwise. / With hand-made buttonholes; —bottoms of coat and cuff linings tacked by hand; —and, naturally, materials of a quality that would justify such individual attention; —here are boys’ suits, the very \ height of excellence. | | In Norfolk and conservative styles.
