Ho mentloned soyen bllls which hnd! beon passed by Congress nnd whlch had' beon drawn up by the R-eform Bureau and lntroduced at its ro quest. Mr. Miller snld that the bureau was mnklng great efforts Just now to socuro tlio pnssnge through tho Unlted' States Sonate of House bill 15,3.11, gener.-Uly known ns (he "Interstate Llquor Act." Thls measuro alms to proteet no-llcense and prohibitlon terrltory agalnst brewers, dlstlllers and wholesale llquor dealers from outstde of a State, and to prevent thelr sendlng llquor Into suoh torrltory In original packages; thereby nulllfying the voto nf the people.

Under the present law a wholesale llquor tlrm out side of the Stnte can come in and sell llquor ln a manner not al lowed to a flrm Inslde of the State.
