ENFORCEINTBILU.r
PROPOSED BY 'ITS' '
Near-Boer and Other 't?oft'
Drinks Taxable Under Coun-
ter-Moasure Drafted
LICENSE IS REQUIRED
Hi n Staff Connponrtrn(
Ilairlsbiiig, April 22. "Wet" lead
ers plan to introduce nn enforcement
net into the Legislature some time thN
week in opposition to ihe two enforce
ment bills now iienclltiE In the Itnnsn
nvhl.h "crc Introduced by the "eirys."
neprcscntativc William T. Itamsey,
of Chester, floor leader of the "wets"
'in the lower chamber, will snnnsnr the
measure. One piovision in the proporciL
mensuic will uc tlie same ns the bill in-"""
trnditc.nl some weeks ngo by Mr. Itam
sey to define an intoxicant ns n bevcr
ngc containing more than 271 Fr cent
alcohol.
Another feature of the bill will be a
provision fixing n license fee for the;
snip of nil bevernges containing alcov
hoi. This bill will require n license
for the snlc of near-beer and other' '
liquids containing a small percentage of
nlcohol.
A line-up between the "wets" and
"dr.vs" is sure to ensue over the Itnmi
sev measure. The "drys" will oppose
any bill which defines nn intoxicant
as a beveiagc containing more than
one-half of 1 pel cent nlcohol.
Dr. C. F. Swift, superintendent of
Ihe Pennsjlvnnin Anti-Snloon League,
indicated the position of the "drys" in
n statement todnv. ,
"It is n known fnct." snys Doctor
Swift, "that for years the federal gov-'
eminent has n standard giving the per
centage of 'permissible nlcohol in bev
ernges ns onc-bnlf of 1 per cent."
"Thc brewers nnd liquor people of
thc country will awaken to the fact
thnt in their propaganda of manufac
turing '2 per cent beer and the threat
to continue their business bejond July
1, thus seeking to nullify the law, they
arc not dealing with a political party
nor a certain class of state antl federal
officials. ,'
"They are finding that they arc deal--ing
with Uncle Snm. who stands for
tho highest good to the greatest num
ber. "These liquor people will have to
learn that when the federal government
writes its opinion Into law they will
have to nbide; by it whether it is to their
liking or not; just the same as many
other people who hnve not liked the
license nnd liquor laws for thc last fifty
cars have nbided by them until in a
legal and orderly way n change has
been brought about."
If the brewers persist in manufac
turing beer "thev will receive a just
lebuKe Mid punishment" at the bands
of Untie Sam, according to Doctor
Swift.
