    "WETS" TRY TO
HAMSTRING "DRY"
ENFORCEMENT
Make Bill So Drastic They
Hope It Will Be Unpopu
lar and Inoperative
Despite the efforts that have been
made to banish it from continued
serious consideration in the Legisla
ture, the liquor question now pre
sents itself as one of the most pres
ent and important matters of next
week because of "the search and
seizure" amendment made to the
Fox Enforcement Bill by the liquor
interests. This provides that any
persons having a stock of liquors
on their promises will he liabe to a
visit from the authorities and a
search for liquors made and con
sequent seizure if any arc found.
There is no lofty thought of en
forcing prohibition in the amend
ment but the idea of making the bill
unpopular. Paradoxically, the "dry"
leader. Representative John W.
Vickerman and his lieutenants are
against the amendment declaring
that (hey are for prosecution of of
fenders and not persecution.
The "wet" leaders hoped to make
the Fox hill so unpopular that the.
Governor would veto it and now are
flabbergasted to learn that the Ex
eeutive will sign it when it reaches
him. Wanting to he fair the "drys"
will continue their opposition to the

OUTJJVE TIPS
rake PubliG Into Confidence
Prominent physicians claim people
fail in life because of "nerve hunger"
that it is the active brighi-eyed, strong
nerved man or woman who is "there"
at work or play.
Strong, well nourished nerves is the
great secret of success, health and hap
piness.
Men and women try to live regardless
of health, strength, ambition, energy
and hope, they exeeed the speed limits,
wasting nerve strength and energy and
fail to store up reserve force, after
wards they only exist, life has no joys.
Without energy, ambition, strong
nerves, and pure blood one cannot hope
to enjoy the fullest measure of success
and happiness.
A noted specialist says. "Phosp'iated
Iron brings strength to the blood,
nerves and brain, that it is a pet-feet
combination of vital elements of great
tonic qualities when taken by 'Nerve
sick humans', that it will increase body
and nerve energy, restore ambition and
staying powers".
He also says: "Tf you are the victim
of overwork, worry, excess of mental
and physical forces, have the blues, and
the pleasures of life are no longer en
joyable, that you need rhosphated Iron
to brace, build you up and put you on
your feet again".

j Copenhagen, May 8. —A Munich
| dispatch received here states that
! following the arrest of some thirty
(citizens here for holding a prohibit
jed meeting, a party of Bavarian sol
jdiers broke into the prison last
Isearch and seizure idea. They re
frained from placing those features
in the Fox bill when it was drafted
and see that the attitude gf the wets
is merely to becloud the issue and
drag the subject out. It ik likely that
the amendment will be eliminated
from the bill in the Senate.
The question came up in the Law
and Order Committee yesterday
when Mr. Vickerman, by a 13 to 9
vote, had the amendment declared
eliminated from the bill. William T.
Ramsey took the stand that the com
mittee could not eliminate an
amendment inserted by the House
of Representatives. It is a tine par
jliamentary point and will be heard
i from later.
j The committee negatived the
i Hough Sunday baseball bill; the bill
to allow certain establishments open
a part of Sunday and the bill for
amateur sports on Sunday. Rater in

"It remaine to be seen how far
we are called upon to assume the
,-inanoial and economic responsibili
ties and how far public sentiment in
the I'nitcd States will tolerate such
assumption," said he.
"Except in the fact that the
menace of German militarism is re
moved. the American people do not
seem to be getting any substantial
results out of the treaty in the way
of indemnities, reparation or other
compensation," continued the Sen
ator. who said that the article in
the Dengue of Nations covenant
which stands out "most prominently
as a source of trouble," is article
ten guaranteeing the present, boun
daries and integrity of nations.
"That the geography of the world
should be fixed on an inflexible
and unalterable basis is open to
grave question as being opposed to
i the progress and development of
! civilization," conCnued the Senator.
"Moreover such a proposition de
stroys all hope for oppressed peo
ples or dissatisfied peoples, such as
those in Korea and Ireland, whose
grievances, real or alleged, do not
secure any consideration or relief

Harmony in Senate
The Senator said that the Rcpitb

"As far as I am personally con
' cerned." said the Senator. "I favor
' any arrangements that will diminish

: time I do not believe we have any

Germany Silent on Pact;
Hun Courier Is on Way j
to Berlin With the Text
By Associated Press•
Paris, May 8. —Germany has not
yet submitted any communication
with regard to the peace treaty. All
the exchanges between the delega
tion at Versailles and the home gov
ernment are being kept secret.
A copy of the treaty is well on its
way to Berlin. A German courier
left at 9 o'clock last night bearing
it with Count Von Brockdorff-Ran
tau's first report on the negotiations.
Intimations reaching the Peace
Conference from Versailles lead to
the belief that two or three mem
bers of the German peace delega
tion will probably return to Ger
many to consult their government,
the others remaining at Versailles.

better housing conditions and call
ed upon the businessmen of this
State to get behind the great recon
struction program that America is
opening.
At the opening of his address Mr.
Sprague paid tribute to Governor
Sproul and his cabinet who he de
clared had "set an example to the
rest of the nation hy opening their
immense road building program."
He urged that public school build
ings, offices and private structures
be begun at once, despite the pres
ent high cost.
Common labor of the wheelbar
row class, he said, is plentiful now
but there will be a shortage in the
very near future. "We are face to
face with this inevitable shortage,
and our industries will be sorely tax
ed by the demands from home and
abroad. Prosperity is ahead."
