War Time Day Bill Near Law
Complete agreement on the prohibition enforcement bill is expected as House and Senate conferees meet today. The remaining dispute concerns who bears the burden of proof for evidence of illegal commerce in intert wines and beverages. Conferees retain the one half of one percent maximum content rule and home storage provisions for prewar purchases. The Senate home manufacture provision for cider and light wines would remain, along with other liberalising elements. Prohibition advocates expect enactment late this week.
