Washington, Dec . The Bheppard bill te prevent th manufacture aad sal of aleohoUa Uquors la the District of Columbia waa called np ia the Senate today aad considered for several hours. The measure was almost perfected when the Scaate adjourned this after soon. ..! Benator Bheppard said tonight that hs would press for a vote, and ban ticca assured that he will have a majority of six or snore when ths show-down comas. Benator underwood, or Alabama, has given notice that ho will advocat a a amendment to permit the people of the District to vots on the Bheppard bill .before it can become operative. n .believe that we will get to a vote within a 'short while," said Mr. Bhep pard after the Senate adjourned. "We have'bou, completed the provisions of tss measure.'" i expect a vote, aaa a majority.' The Bheppard bill, if accepted by the Senate and Bouse, would make Wash intrtba as drr as a bone. It orovides that after a eortaia ttaieT"no''praoa, or persons, or say hones, eompany, as sociation, club or corporation, his. its or their agents, officers, clerks, or servant,, directly or indirectly, in the District of Columbia shall manufacture, store or deposit, sell, offer for sale, or solicit or receive orders for the pnrehsse of any alcoholic or other prohibited liquors for beverage purposes." Ike bill prohibits the giving sway of intoxicating liquors except unaer cer tain very' restricted conditions. Senator Kenyon, of Iowa, and other Bepublicans havo joined forces with the "dry" Democrats and ' will help bring the anti-boose bill to a vote. During the debate today Senator Un dernood. questioned Henntor Bheppard as to the aim f the bill. ,. , .z. "la importation of alcoholic liquors into the District prohibited V he asked. "Only the importation for sale aa a beverage,' 'replied Benator Hheppard. "If tha Senator sends to New York or Baltimore for liquor to be used aa a beverage ia bia owa home he will not violate the law then," said Benator Ua derwood. Benator Bheppard said that fhis was correct interpretation of the proposed law. Senator Underwood pointed out that grain alcohol could be manufactured here under the proposed law if it was not to be used for beverage purposes ia the District. "What I want to know is," he said, "whether grain alcohol manufactured here can be exported from the District to be used as a beverage elsewhere. Senator Bheppard at first said he thought that this could ' be done. On reconsideration, however, he pointed out that the bill prohibits the manufacture of alcohol for beverage purposes in' the District of Columbia, and that he thought this would prevent its use, any where for beverage purposes. ' Senator Works, of California, inter rupted to state that he waa oppoeed tc permitting the importation of. alcohol into the District for personal use as provided by the bill. He aaid, however, that he would not oppose the measure. Senator Underwood Suggested that in his view of the bill it would be possible to manufacture grain alcohol in trie District, ahip it serosa the line and then have It shipped back f ojr personal use. Senator Bheppard and Senator oha froth agreed that Something should be dona to prevent any such rourse of ae Hon. -Senator Bhafroth then offered an amendment to prohibit ths shipment from the District of grain aleohol, which was adopted. After some further dis suasion, at ths suggestloa ol Benator 8 moot, tbta part of the bill was tempo rarily paaaed over. It appeared for a tint that th bill might be passed at today's session, so rapidly wars amendment disposed of without debate. At S o'clock, however, Senator Hardwick. of Georrta, presented IOlhL JieBatS Jf MlUllflBejBlLjemlot I the death of Bepresentative Tribble, who died today, and as a further mark of respect, moved an adjournment of the Senate. The Bens t a adjonraed until Monday at noon. All of ths amnnd menta offered by Senator Bheppard of Texas, wke is la charge of ths bill, were disposed of before the bill was laid aaide. ' i ' Senator Bheppard announced that he would move to take xto th bill agsln Monday and would aeek to keep it be fore th Senate natil It bad been finally seed. That the bill will pass. If it eemee to a vote, is ths confident pre diction of its supporters. The corrupt practices bill Is the un- flaJthed business of ths Senate, aad au tematloally eJma-wp"aaeh..day ,t I o'eloen.
