FOR RETENTION
Recommendation Sent Forth
To Congress; Hoover
v Is in Agreement
Opposes, However, Sugges
tion for Modifying way
Of Enforcement
WASHINGTON. Jan. 20 (AP)
The long-debated report of the
"Wick erg ham commission, "broadly
upholding constitntlonal prohibi
tion but leaTlng the door ajar for
basic revision, was pat on the
crowded calendar of a divided
congress today by President
'Hoover. ; '-1
The president agreed with the
commission that , the dry amend
ment should not be repealed. He
disagreed with a suggestion that
revision might be the better part
of wisdom. . He pointed out to the
lawmakers that all the commis
sioners favored large expansion of
enforcement facilities, arid said he
hoped congress would consider
that at some appropriate time.
Borah Derlawa
IsFoe Before Public
The arrival of the report-on
f capitol hill set off explosions
there that promised to be heard In
the next election.
Senator Borah of Idaho, an ad
vocate of prohibition, said repeal
or bo repeal of the eighteenth
amendment was the Issue and de
manded that it be taken t$ the
people. -
"1 nhonld like to see those op
posed to the eighteenth amend
ment present their alternative
and let the people choose between
them in an orderly and proper
fashion." he said. ; .
Senator Blaine, republican,
Wisconsin, an opponent of the dry
law, Introduced a resolution for a
substitute prohibition amendment
similar to that the commission
outlined. Hi3 proposal would give
congress the power to regulate li
quor traffic, but not to prohibit.
No Action Thi
Session Expected
. After the first etorra of words
subsided, congress turned back to
its burdensome' legislative task.
The report was sent to the Judi
ciary committees of the house and
senate with indications : that It
would remain there until next ses
sion at least.
Chairman Norrls of the senate
judiciary committee said he ex
pected no action by It at this ses
sion, although he would name a
sub-committee to study the Blaine
proposaXifJthaWlsconstn senator
desired. !-
Wlth the report went the letter
of President Hoover. The presi
dent briefly reviewed the person
nel of the commission and the
scope of Us 18 month .study.
Mr. Hoover made no direct ref
erence to the fact that six of the
- eleven commissioners asked for
repeal or modification." Nor did
he mention the statement by the
whole commission that a revision
