SEGURE NETORY Prohibition Legislation Affords Most Complicated Question of Session. © EXPECT SENATE ACTION - Upper House Leaders Will Lead Fight For Beer ~ Measure. Apparently undisturbed by the claims of the legislative chimpions of the pro- posal to legalize the sale of beer with ah alcoholic content not exceeding three and ong-half percent, the dry forces in the Assembly express confidence that such n unnot be passed in the lower They also are somewhat doubtful as to its success in the Senate, where the chaners of passage are admittedly better than in the Assombly. The \liquor question at present con- fronting the Legislature~is about as com- plicated as uny situation that hing been greated in many. years. 'In addition to the proposals to legalize beer and light wines. which for the time being have as- sumed the commanding position in point of interest, ave the prohibition enforee- ment measures and the proposal to Naye league investigated by the Assombly judiciary committee, As- semblyman Louis A. Cutillier, Democrat, of. New York, introducer of the investi- gating resolution, has threatened to press another resolution calling William H Anderson, ' state- superintendent of the Anti-Saloon league, before, the bar of the Assembly to answer charges of contempt of the Assembly alleged in- sults to its members, - - Colonel Gillett's Measure, The. principal bills designed to legalize mildly: alcoholic beverages have been- in- oll 2: the Senute gud Colonel Ransom 'H, Gil= lott, Republican,: of Columbia, a veteran of the Iwenty-oventh Division. and a now momber of the Assembly.. Rach has Introduced the other's bill in his own house, The Gillett bill is intended to per- mit the manufacture and sule of three and onc-half percent beer and ten per- cont wine, while the Walker bill is de- wigned to legnlize, traffic,in 2.70 pereent beer. Both bills are now in committee in both houses, There are two prohibition enforcement, bills, the 'Phompgon-Slacer measure, drafted by commsel -for the Anti-Saloon league, which is nearly an exact dupli- ente of the Volstead .act passed,by Con- goot oud the Mullen-Gage bill, which is designed to continue the Stute Depart- ment of Fxclse. as the enforcement ugency. Ho Tar as the two enforcement measures arp concerned, the wets are op- mosed to both, and the drys are divided. Advoeateg of (the hom Slncer bill suy the department of excise provision was axcluded from their bill in order that (Governor Smith. might not have an op- portunity to veto it on the ground that it aimed to perpetuate a department, with its patronage, that he might consider use less. Backers of- the: Mullen-Gage bill contend that it is absolutely necessury to continue the department as an enforce» ment agency. , Action On League's Bill. Tt is probable that the members of the Senate soon may have an opportunity to go on record regarding their attitude to- wards the Thompson-Slacer bill, as Sen- ator Thompgon hus served notice that if the measure is not promptly reported out by the judiciary committes he will move the discharge of the committes. In this he will be' opposed by the solid Demo- cratic minority of 21 members. Whether there will be gnough wet Republicans al- lied with the Denfocrats to block advance- mont of the bill is a subject of animated disenssion. a . Senator Thompson exneets to bind enough Republicans through a partyycau- ene, to give his bill the constitutional majority. of 20 votes, Majority Leader Walters of, the Senate-declares, however, that there will be no caucus, It is un- derstood that Senator Thompson can count on 28 Republicans signing a caucus eall, and he is. hopeful that at least'three of the other seven. Republicans will not dare to defy caucus action, 10+) * Sweet Lined Up With Drys, Majority Leader Walters and Minor- ity Leader Walker clainr they can muster enough votes in the upper chamber, to pass a beer bill and Colonel Gillett ex- presses confidene that the Assembly also will act favorably on such a measure, Colonel Gillett expects to get the Asom: bly on record on his wine.and beer bill on a motion to discharge the exciso com- mittee from further consideration of it. He says he bas not told the members of 76 members, an Assembly majority,\ of Spenker Thaddons C.

Anti-Satoon League Probe. ties of the Auti-Baloon League, Anderson and other officials of the organi- zation, remains undecided. Whether there will be an investigation will depend on the outrome of a conference of- Attorney General Charles D. Newtou, Chairman clary committee, and others. Jist now the committee bas under consideration the evidence introduced at the investi- gation 'of the qualifications and eligibil- ity as mumbersfof the Legislature of the suspended Socialist assemblymen, five in number, « Until their decision is rendered on, this question, they will not be in a position to conduct any other inquiry.. Assembly- man Cuviliiee and others, who are- in- sistent upon an investigation of the Anti-Snloon * League, , declare that.. its methods of operation, its finances, and its vatied activities should be exposed to the public, Superintendent Anderson Aiys he; welcomes an investigation and he also declaves. that failure, to 'conduct the in- quiry will be a confession of defeat.. Many Important Hearings, ' Probabilities are that from now until the day 'of final adjournment, 'Some phage of the liquor question will x'gmfiixi before the Legislature, greatly to. the embartassment of many of the members. 'The: report of the Assembly} jpdicinry committee on the question of ousting the fire Socialists probably will not be tort}:- coming this week, 'The brief of the couii- sel for the committee has mot yet: been filled, butés‘ looked for earlyjn the week.
