Senator Maine, Republican, Wis
eoliHiti, introduced in tlie senate
today immediately after receipt
uf the law enfiireeineiil I'onmiis
sion's pruhihitiun report, a resolu
tion for a tuibstitute pndiiliition

port from the W'icUersham eom
mfsMion which declared t?iitiist
repeal of t lie eighteenth a mend -incut,
hut put forward a plan for
Hm puHJiihle revision.
The president said he eoneurred
In the commission's finding that
the amendment slum Id stay, and
did not recommend any present
effort to amenl U.
He made n direct reference to
the fact that six of the 11 com
missioners usked for repeal or
modification, or to the declaration
of the wholp com mission that n.
revision of the clause tjlving con
current power to the state and na
tion would he wise.
In congress, the report Immedi
ately became the center of atten
tion ami the inspiration for ninny
projected proposals for modifica
tion or strengthening of the ilry
statutes.
See Political lOriecl.
No one in official circles at Hic
cup Hal discounted the proh.ible
political effect, having ramifica
tions far into the future.
One snl'lect Immediately brought
to the front was the possible ef
fect on Mr. Hoover's own political
fortunes.
Mr. Hoover described the re
port as "a temperate and judicial
presentat ion." He emphasized its
reeoin me ndat Ions for better en
forcement, and siiid he hoped "H'
law maker." would give iheni eon
sideration at an appropriate time.
"My own duly anil that of all
executive officials is clear." he
said, "to enforce the law with all
the means of our disposal without
e. 'invocation or reservation. '
tine outstanding commission pro
posal for immediate legislation
was that the number of prohibi
tion agent h. now about 1 !"..
should he doubled along with
stmitiir extensive iiwreaHes of per
sonnel charged with making the
country dry.
I'avor Medical l.hnior.
Another was that the cl.nises
restricting medical liquor be lib
eralized. A third contemplated action to
define more clearly the legal sta
tus of home made wine.
Congressional leaders said im
mediate study would be given
theso proposals, but they won hi
give no assurance of action before
the adjournment on March I.
Neither was there any indica
tion at the White House that the
president was considering calling
an extra set don for work on this
legislation.
l're-ident Hoover, in transmit
ting the report, said:
'To the congress:
"The first deficiency appropria
tion act of March t. lHiH. carried
an npproprhitii'ii for a thorough
investigation as to the ni'ree-nn-it
of the prohibition tnws. lo-
'tlier with the enforcement f
