In a heated session the Senate stalled over the Howell bone dry bill for the District of Columbia as opponents and supporters clashed on national prohibition. A faction pressed a home-raid bill aimed at Washington voters while Republicans balked at a 20,000,000 bushel wheat measure opposed by Alexander Geege of the federal farm board.
