TIIE MOTtNIXG OREG ONI AX, FRIDAY NOVEMBER 5, 1314. FIXING OF PENALTY IS DRYS' NEXT STEP Punitive Clause Purposely Omitted From Prohibition Act as Safeguard. LEGISLATURE RELIED ON Liquor Interests 'May Test Klection Before Supreme Court Breweries Likely to Be Changed Into ': Various Factories. Now that the people of Oregon have Toted to abolish the liquor traffic it remains for the Legislature to pass law providing penalties for violations of the prohibition amendment. The framers of the prohibition amendment adopted at Tuesday's elec tion purposely omitted provision for penalties. They were advised by able attornevs that this function or gov eminent properly belongs to the Leg islature of the state. While It would have been possible for the people, by their vote, to tlx a penalty, it is nninteart nut thut the measure as passed by the people will stand the test of constitutionality, while. Baa 11 carrieu a penalty clause, its constitutionality Tnlcrht have been Questioned. Notwithstanding that some of the best constitutional lawyers in the state have declared the amendment as adopt ed is valid in every particular, it is un derstood that some of the interests op posed to prohibition are preparing to carry the new law to the Supreme Court to test Its validity. Drya Ready for Fight. The prohibition forces are ready to meet just such an emergency. They are Bupplied with ready funds and have the command of some of the best legal tal ent in the state. They will defend the amendment, they declare, to the last ditch. Am a mater of fact the liauor inter ests have laid out' no programme of their own and may acquiesce to the voice of the people in silence. Only a few of the most radical of their num ber now are talking of carrying the case to the Supreme Court. The saloon Interests seemed fully confident of success at the polls Tues lay and made no plans beyond going to the polls and voting against pro hibition. They were not prepared for defeat and do not know just exactly what they will do. Another step that the saloon inter ests now are considering is to go be fore the coming session of the Legis lature and insist on enactments against the liquor traffic even more drastic than those the people have adopted. "Double Dose" Outlined. They want to bottle up the state air tight, they say, and make it impossible to ship liquor into the state and a fel ony for anyone to take a drink in the state. In other words, they want to give the people such a strict set of prohibition laws and such rigid en forcement of those laws that they will sicken and tire of regulation and gladly restore the liquor traffic as a means of relieving their restricted liberties. J. E. Wheeler, chairman of the com mittee of 100, which played an import ant part in the success of the prohibi tion movement, says that so far as that organization 13 concerned, no legisla tive programme has been mapped out. It is probable that none will be out lined. "That is something for the Legisla ture Itself to do," he said yesterday. "We have obtained no promises from any of the individual members and asked for none. '. "Prohibition has been adopted by the overwhelming vote of the people, and I think the legislators will appreciate what their constituents want, regard less of what their own personal preju dices on the question may be. Legislature Relied t'bn. "Every county in the state seems to have voted for prohibition, so I think there can be no mistaking the senti ment of the people. If the Legislature acts in accordance vith the wishes of the people expressed at the polls Tues day there will be Jlttle difficulty in obtaining the kind of legislation to make the new amendment effective." Owners of the heading breweries in NOTED WELSH TENOR TO SING HERE SUNDAY. X'$&Lw - I ?r v,. 4 J ; : I ., t - ' V. : - . I EVAN WILLIAMS. Evan Williams, America's greatest concert tenor, 'who sings at the Helllg Sunday at 3 o'clock under the direction of Steers & Coraan, has "a voice wonderful In its modulations, expressing the rapture and human appeal of song in a way that plays upon the heartstrings strangely," according to music critics.

SALEM, Or., Nov. 6. (Special.) Attorney-General Crawford, in an opin ion today asked by State Superintend ent of Banks Sargent, held that banks which changed their names after the passage of the trust company act, be lieving that 'it was necessary for them to eliminate the word "trust," may file supplemental articles of Incorporation so as to resume the old names. The Supreme Court recently held that the trust company act, so far as the names of 'banking, institutions were concerned, only applied to those banks established since the law became effective. Banks, Mr. Crawford said, which did a trust company business before the trust company act became operative, may continue that business without complying with the act.

The word, 'distribution was pur posely omitted from, the amendment so that it will not restrict people in their personal liberties .
