Decide Tuesday Whether {to Put Hobson Resolution to Vote. ° a | ‘ WASHINGTON,’ May 11.—Tne situ- ation in‘ the House: over the liquor question is growing more interesting every day. Three different forces are engaged in a hand-to-hand fight. The paramount issue at this time is on the Hobson joint resolution, pro- viding for a constitutional amendment to prohibit the manufacture or sale of intoxicating liquore which has been réported without recommenda- tion to the Judiciary Committee. It caused a panic among Congressmen who do not want to have noses count- ed on this far-reaching controversy. The “prohibitionists” are divided into two camps. Old-time temperance workers do not believe it is wise to ask for a Federal prohibition amend- ment. They prefer to continue the fight for prohibition in the states. The “radicals,” led by Representa- tive Hobson, aré insistivg on a vote. In this effort-they are aided by anti- prohibitionists who think they can de- feat the. Hobson bill in the House. LL FOR.
