Chicago, Dec. 29. By a rote of "2
lii 6 the city council yesterday de
1 1 a red that prohibition has failed to
prohibit and demanded tliut congress
and the state legislature authorize th I
manufacture, sale and distribution of
, "wholesome beers and light wines."
The oouncll "dry" battled valiantly
against the resolution. Introduced by
Alderman A. J. Cermak. old time lead
er of the "weta," but as In days of
yore the antl-prohlhitlonlsts wer.t
ilown to overwhelming defeat.
With Aldermen Kutton. (luemsev
Stcff en. Walluce, Link and I yle of
hone dry" wards voting in Uif naga
live, the council declared
That the federul prohibition art bjkl
' failed to meet with the approval of
the general public throughout Ike
rouotry.
That, though comprehensive, dras
tic and summary. It haa "utterly
tailed" to secure respect and rb
dience from the public
That "abundant and unimpeachable
statistics" prove that the public la op
poaed to prohibition
"The resolution ie purest bunk." de
clared AJderman Steffen in reply t )
Onuak's hot attack on prohibition.
"You are trying to bull the public
If you really wanted to do something
you would run for congress on a wet
platform."
Before the debate began Alderman
John Coughlln had the resolution
amended to approve the use of reve
nue derived from wines and beer to
pay a soldiers" bonus
Then Alderman Cermak in a fifteen
minute speech tore into prohibition,
admitting in his speech that Chicago
. , i Is now getting its first real dose of
aridity and declaring that the city j
doesn't like it

The people are sick of if and tfcej
will not stand the ser.ding or $11,

out and play the spotter, the ttugger

"Mr. Mayor," ( ermak limited, shak
ing his finger at the mayor. ' why
don't you t"ll the government to ap
point Its own police force to enforc -this
damnable law? You may expect
a lot of trouble from me and my

to use the money of Chicago taxpay

Alderman t'ermak said that the ant i

of the resolution to every city in the
country for Introduction in their city
i ouncils.
In a fervid speech in reply to t'er
mak. Aldreman Lyle declared tha;
' the liquor issue is a dead issue and
has passed out of polities ' His col

for the resolution, however.
Copies of the council's plea for wine
and beer are to be sent to President

sociutton submitted bids.
The best bid would make the year's1
supply of cement cost the state ap-j
proximately $2 per barrel very little.
If any. reduction from the latest i
prices this year. On this basis, the'
cost of the cement for the l.ono miles

Study of the estimates reveals that!

they were strangely similar. The de !
