A report of the congressional Investigation of enforcement of the Volstead law was given the anti-saloon league convention today in the report pre pared by Representative Grant M. Hudson of Michigan chairman of the committee. The Information was gained from thousands of questionnaires sent out by the committee to state officials, social and welfare organ izations and leaders In industrial and commercial life. It Is very doubtful If any brewer In the United States today success fully operates so-called near-bear business Representative Hudson said, "unless they run It In connec tion with some other business eii,. k. i.. n-k. , u u amended so as to make all manu-1 facturers of cereal beverage plants obtain a government permit. So long aa there are breweries there Will be attempted violations." Whiskey Supply Decreasing. The control of the genuine whis key supply in the country. Repre sentative Hudson ssid, is quite ef fective now, 22.000.000 to 33,000.000 gallons still in bond resting in con centration warehouses and the pre , vious leaks fairly well stopped.

I ''The great weakness of the en- iorcement or tne istn amendment," said Representative Hudson, "has been lack of adequate penalties. The system of fines operates only as a license law. The Increasing number, of convictions compared to the total number of cases Indicates a growing determination to stamp ot law violations." Mors Prosoerity, More Homes. The questionnaires, Representa tive Hudson said, were almost un- anlmous In their expression of the benefits resulting from prohibition, the replies quoting figures on de- creased pauperism, increase of prosperity among working men. Increase In home owning and life Insurance. , There Is a divergence of opinion In the matter of death rate from alcohol, a committee report said. In 1922 the death rate had been 2. about onehalf the rale when prohibition became effective, but this was an Increase of almost one per cent over 1921. and 1921 i brought the desth rate up to 3 2. the Klks Indue.
