record in favor of a "dry” nation dur­
ing the war, so far a* whisky and
other distilled beverages are concern­
ed. The beer and wine Industries
would be left undisturbed.
In lieu of the section of the house
bill to prohibit the manufacture of
foodstuffs Into beverages of any de­
scription, the senate substituted by a
vote of 46 to 37 a provision prohibiting
manufacture and importation of dis­
tilled beverage^,, during the war and
added, 66 to 12, a further clause di­
recting the president to take over all
distilled spirits in government bonded
warehouses and pay for it on the basis
of cost plus 16 per cent.

offensive movement has resulted In
a deep wedge being driven Into the
Austro German line between Stanls-
lau and Halloa, southeast of Lem
berg. It took the throwing In of
strong German reserves and the
launching 'of heavy counter attacks
even to alow up the rush of Korul-
loff’s men.
The strategic position in this sec
tor Is now clearly in favor of the
Russians. The long established Teu­
