President Wilson's urgent appeal
the appropriation was sent to Senator
Martin and representative Mhcrley,
chairmen of the Congressional ap
propriation committees, and was
read
in the House by Mr. Sherley. It was
supplemented by a report to the State
Department from Henry D. White, Ke
publican member of the American peace
delegation. Both messages said the
problem of supplying food to the dis
tressed peoples recently liberated was
one of paramount importance in ob
taining a return to normal conditions.

"Food relief is now the key to the
whole European situation and to the
solution of peace." Mr. Wilson said.
"Bolshevism is steadily spreading west

out it can be stopped by food.
The President added that unless the
'tide of anarchism" Is stemmed, it may
not be possible to find definite gov

2 MORE STATES FOR DRYS
(Continued From First Pn?e.)
nia Legislature will keep the measure
from the Governor for a time, but ad
vocates of the amendment said today's
action could not be reversed.
OLTMPIA, WasirTjan. 13. (Special.)
In an hour and five minutes after
ic Washington Legislature convened
today both houses had ratified tho pro
hibffion amendment to the Federal Con
stitution by unanimous votes. The rati
fication resolution was immediately
rushed to the Secretary of State for
certification and before night went
into the mail with Governor Lister s
letter of transmittal to Congress.
According to report available here
today this action places Washington
24th in the rank of states that have
already ratified the National dry law.
It also raises the question of whether
the amendment will hot modify Wash
ington's bone-dry law, under which no
intoxicating liquor except straight
alcohol can bo brought into the state,
and then oily t'-'.etly for other than
beverage purposes.
California Assembly Acts.
The Federal amendment prohibits
intoxicating liquors when intended
simply for beverage purposes. With
the Federal amendment supreme, it is
hopefully conceded in various quarters
that whisky, wine and beer may be
brought into Washington for medicinal,
scientific or mechanical purposes.
