“TSONFORA DRINK WMT A MILD KX Magee of Kentucky Proposes an Amendment to Permit State Control. WASHINGTON, Dec, 8.—Attacks tave been opened in the Hous» on the Volstead Prohibition Law and the Enforcement Unit of the Treas- ury Department. ‘The latest suggestion for a solu- tion of the dry and wet problem was offered by Representative Magee (Rep., N. Y.), a member of the Ap- propriations Committee. He pro- posed that the Judiciary Committee make a careful investigation, with experts, to ascertain the maximum f alooholic content that beverages may have without being intoxicating, and amend the law to permit the several States to work within that Umitation. Representative Hill (Rep., Ind.) an- nounced he would seek to reduce the appropriation for enforcement and transfer this function from the Treasury to the Department of Jus- tice. Mr, Magee declared It was apparent that under the Eighteenth Amend- ment “‘the people are entitled to a beverage containing any alcoholic content that is reasonably non-Intoxt- eating.” He added that “the law should be based upon regson” and hat reason should also prevail in Permitting the use of liquors for entific anf business purposes al ‘under prescriptions from physicians. “In determining the maximum, he continued, ‘‘we must bear in mind that there exists for our consideration mot a wartime power involving the defense and preservation of the Na- tion, but a constitutional power in- volving the rights of the people in time of peace. If Minnesota wanis cold water let her have it. If Ne York wants the maximum, no other fovereign State could reasonably ob- Ject.” Magee declared that the proposal @id not look either to re-establish- ment of the saloon or repeal of the Eighteenth Amendment, but only to guarantecing the people their eon- stitutional rights. “The granting of such rights,” he added, “would probably result in a RAEN A a ne i THE EVENING WORLD, FRIDAY, DECEMIEZR 8, 1022, RIDING CLUN TRIUMPHS, In one of the fastest Indoor polo games of the early season, the Riding tub trio defeated a mixed team of t' New York Riding Club at Dura yesterday afternoon by @ store of 10 gonls to 8. ‘The Riding Club men playod through the four periods, but thelr op- ponents cut in, using five men, The game was closely contested throughoyt, being marked by brilliant rallies dnd hard riding and the result was In doubt up to the closing perlod. beverage, at @ reasonab'e price, inan- lufactured from pure Ingredients under governmental inspection, and sold only in the places and In the monner Prescribed by the Government; in Greatly reduced appropriations fur the enforcement of Prehibit'on; in Increased Treasury receipis of more than half a billion dolla: yoar; in elimination of the producticn and consumption of poisonuus and deadly concoctions; and, beyond all, in res- toration o' wholesome respect for law and the Constitution.” Representative Gilbert (Dem., Ky.) declared the people of the rural sec- tions and small villages stand ready to see that the law is enforced, be- cause they know tts benetis in emptying the Jails, He descrited the jolations of the liquor laws as savur- ing of treason, Representative Hill's efforts to re- dnce the appropriation for Prohiot- tion enforcement will seek to cut out the press agent, the purchase of “evi- dence” and use of funds by the en- forcement officers in speech-makini trips or in propaganda aguinst wet members of Congress. periibistad-c COLLEGE STUDENT BOXES AT COMMONWEALTH CLUB Tony Lyons, a law student who ts using the receipts he earns in the ring to pay his way through law school, will meet Jack McFarland, the Bronx welter- weight In one of the triple events that Joss McMahon of the Commonwealth Club has arranged for to-morrow night Lyons, practically unheard of a year ago, has come to the front in a manner worthy of recognition, He won fifty-one bouts by knockouts and lost only once out of seventy starts Willie Darcey and Harry Catena, two clever ‘flywelehts who ging each other for the ly meet tn another ten-rou Johnny Coney of Harlem a: Florio, two lightwelsht the third ten-row Savory 7 Comet Rice Scupfuls Comet-Boiled Rice B tablespoonfuls minced on 2 minced green peppers 4 thimralices bacon 44 teaspoonful nalt 44 teaspoonful pepper 4% cupful fresh or canned mushrooms (optional) OK the bacon until crisp, remove it from the pan and cook the onion and peppers in the bacon fat for five minutes.
