LAW COMING BACK I All Depends on When Peace Treaty is Signed, Says Columbia Paper. The “wets” of South Carolina are in high hopes of being allowed to order a quart of whlske? for the Christmas celebration and they are even hoping that between this time and Chrisariis they may have the privilege of order ing two quarts. It all depends on the United States senate and the signing of the German peace treaty, says The Columbia Record. And the ~wets” are even greater friends of the peace, treaty than ever before. They are "pulling for” its rati fication by the senate. Attorney General Wolfe stated to a representative of The Record that his interpretation of the situation with re gard to prohibition is that the recent act of congress, in passing the wartime prohibition enforcement legislation over President Wilson’s veto, means that, wartine prohibition is to be en forced until ‘V signing of the Ger man peace treaty, and that between that date and the 16th of next Janu ary the nation will be in- c tatu-quo, si far as liquor is -concerned, which would mean the quart-a-month law in South Carolina, and the manufacture of liquor in Baltimore and in states where manufacture was allowed before the war.* In other words, before war conditions would prevail. Should the German peace treaty be ratified by the senate early in Novem ber—and Washington interpretes the signing of the treaty as the end of the war emergency period, so far as the whiskey question Is concerned—the “wets” of South Carolina .would it is said, be allowed to order a quart of Compare the Chandler With Any Car C HANDLER checks with the finest high-priced cars in essential features of design and construc tion.
