The committee met today to con sider changes in the bill.

Representative Green of Iowa de clared members seemed determined to tear down the bill offering substitutes for section they would strike out. The liquor section of the bill, which would Increase the levy on whisky from $1.10 to 2.20 u gallon, wa adopted despite the efforts of prohi bitionists to defeat the Increase. The. maintained saloonlsts and distillers sought the tax to internch their positions. Let Us Help You-HELP THRIFT means producing the maxi ...mum, consuming the minimum and wasting NOTHING.
