Committee, CWo Taken Not to In
convonkuoo Legitimate l'e of At
eoluH lu Measure.
Drafts of the bone-dry prohibition
law have been presented to the leffU
latora at Salem by the committee
which prepared it, consisting of ex
Governor West, J. P. Newell, da
Wallace Unruh and O. B. Bradley
Prohibition of the manufacture, trado
in or importation of liquor Is made
absolute but the "possession clause
is left up to the committee. One
draft has It In and other omits It.
The meat of the law Is contained in
the first section, which Is all embrao.
Ing In Its prohibition on Intoxicating
liquor as affocting the manufacture.-,
Individual or common carrier.
Provisions for the use and sale ol
alcohol follow In logical sequence,
with a statement of the law as affect
ing the common carrier and the in
troduction of liquor Into the state for
medicinal, mechanical, scientific or
suramental purposes.
The bill submitted for the consid
eration of the legislative committee!
carries an emergency clause, which
means that its provisions would be In
full force after being signed by the
governor.
Provision is made for the repeal o'
present statutes which conflict wltn
the proposed 'aw but in order that
I violations of the present prohibition
I law may not go unpunished It Is pro.
vided that acts now In force shall be
continued In force for the purpose of
prosecution and punishment.
The committee has not seen fit to
insert a "possession" clause in this
section, but a substitute draft of the
section was given to the alcoholic
traffic committees with such a pro
vision so that the committees would
nave both of them.
IHwseKShm Section Included.
This substitute section Is Identical
with the section quoted above ave
that the cluuse, "and on and after
January 1, 1918, it shall also be un-
i lawful for any person to have In hi-
! possession within this state any such
J liquor," appears after the first en
! tence.
I If the legislature should Insert this
provision in the act it would mean
that those powesslng stocks of li
quor In their homes would have about
. 11 months to dispose of It.

The necessity of issuing bonds In

The present laws, according to the
report made by the committee to the
state congress, lack uniformity and
have been amended so mueh thut
they have become conflicting and
cumbersome. The statute Is now con.

the committee deemed further
amendment unadvlttlble.
