New Amendment to Pro
hibition Bill Offered to
Prevent Baltimore
Going Dry
,
!
ANNAPOLIS, Md., March 3. The
battle over the Prohibition bill was
ged furiously in both Houses last ;
night. The Baltimore city members i
. ...
1 ought desperately to have the meas
uer amended to make It State-wide
local option, and the ''wets'' arc morel
hopeful. Strong, unseen forces were j
at work against the bill. In the House I
.... .
ate vote to permit Delegate McIntosh, |
of Baltimore county, to submit an
amendment for local option. He ex
plained that it was a compulsory
local option measure, which would
give the "wet" counties and Uaiti
moré city the right to vote as a unit
iWal prohibition.
lb read a letter from Attorney Gen
eral Ritchie giving an opinion that
the amendment would not destroy the |
constitutionality of the regular blil.janv
but simply change it from a Stale
wide to a local option measure, nf-1
footing only the "wet" spots in the}as
Slate. Such a measure. Delegate Me
Intosii contended, offered the only
fair plan under which Baltimore oily
: hould be asked lo act on prohibition.
It bad been suggested to. him. lie
said, to introduce the optional bill
defeated two years ago by the House,
1ml he was sure the present House
would not stand for such a measure.
Ills amendment, he said, made the
bill stronger than that of the last ses
sion. but fairer in its provisions. Mi
nority Loader Mctzerott insisted in
the original bill, declaring the local
option substitute was not what the
people wan'ted.
The House a' 11 o'clock postponed
early consideration of the bill until
»ext Tuesday, which the "wets" con
sider a good sign for Baltimore.
The Senate adjourned without a vote
on the subject.
Delegate Tydings, of Havre de
Glare, a temperance man who lias
kept saloonkeepers on the jump in
bis county w ith high license laws and
* lie like, made a strong argument for
' slice for Baltimore.
"I want prohibition as much as any
dry man in this House,'' he said :
"but I have no rope around my neck,
end I am tied neither to the Anti-Sa-|
Ihon League nor the so-called liquor

In the Senate, Senator Norris spoke

Eastern Shore and in other parts of

been accorded the right to settle this

and appealed to the Senaors from the

Vacation time is coming. Can you
swim? If you can't, you should learn
and thus enable yourself to enjoy one
of the finest snorts in the world. I've
seen many a person's vacation spoil-1
ed simply because he or she had
ineglected to learn to swim. It's really
simple. You can learn on land.

doubtedtv the most valuable form of
physical development for children,
well as adults. Most practical of
all forms of swimming Is the breast

Swimming is a most valuable ac

This stroke can be learned in six
lessons, four of them to be given at
home or in the class room in place of
the ordinary exercises practiced in
every grammar school.
Miss Hazel Belford, who posed for
the pictures accompanying these ar-|
tides, actually learned to swim in
the six lessons. What she has done
anyone else can do. The first thing to
consider in the breast stroke is shown
