Washington?The slate depaitment
is still waiting word from Mexico!
City regarding the recent proposal
of the. Carranza government author-!
izing the drilling of oil wells provided
foieign companies will promise to
subjeit themselves to indefinite future
legislation. The American association
of producers of petroleum in !
Mexico today notified the slate!
department that members of the or-1
ganiation are in full accord with |
the stand of the state department to
withhold judgment until the Mexican
government makes its next move, i
But the Association, in a communica- J
tion to the department pointed out
that its members will not agree to
submit to unknown future legislation
in which they suspect another effort
to compromise the title to the property
they acquired legally.
The American companies have
n< ver objected to the permit system
as an exercise of police power of the
state, the department was told. They
are disposed to continue to sumbit to
this noliee nownr when the mimnse of
the permit is exclusively to exercise
the Mexican government's authority
in such matters as safety of the location
of wells, valves on wells nearing
the productive stage, cementing
wells to prevent leakage and to cut
off water and similar prudent regulations
to make drilling safe for the
workmen. Hut they make a special
point of their unwillingness to waive

PROHIBITION BILL
BRINGS QUESTION
Brewers' Lawyer Claims it is
Unconstitutional as Now
Pending in Senate.
Washington.?The war time prohibition
enforcement bill, recently pass :
oil by the house and now pending:
before a senate committee, is uncon- {
stitutional, according to an opinion |
by Elihu Root, William D. Guthrie i
and William L. Marbury, counsel for
the United States Brewer's Association.
This opinion holds that until the
18th amendment becomes effective
on January 1(5, 1920. congress, under
well settled rules of law, has no expiess
power to prohibit the manufacture
and sale of beer, whether or not
intoxicating." There is now. no valid
reason for the war-time prohibition
act. the lawyers declare, and there
is no evidence, they add, to support
the claims that the proposed enforcement
measure is neceessary or proper
to conserve the nation's food supply.
The opinion, an exhaustive document
dealing with all legal pluses
of the question, was sent to Christian .
W. Feigcnshan, president of the I
Brewers' Association. The lawyers
contended that while District Judge
Hand and the New York circuit court
of appeals had held the war-time act
constitutional the decision would not
apply to pending legislation.
"Conditions," they said, in this
connection, "have meantime materially
changed during the eight
months since November 21 (the date
of the bill's passage); the president

any of their legal rights,* in the support
of which the state department
has filed several protests pointing out
tlit confiscatory danger in the enactment
of the various decrees isssued
by Carranza.

CHE HORRY HERALD, OONWi
declared on May 20 that it seemed to
him entirely safe to remove the ban
on wines and beer; he reiterated on
July 10 in his address to the senate
that the- war had ended last November;
the demobilization of the army
and navy is progressing and will
shortly be completed; war necessity
oi' emergency has practically ceased
to exist and personal and commercial
relations with Germany have been
pi rmitted to be resumed and are be- ,
ing conducted." i
Taking up two and three-quarters \

it has been established by competent
evidence that such beverage is nonintoxicating,
and that it is immaterial
that congress for years taxed
"fermented liquors," containing more
than one-half of 1 per cent, alcohol j
as this basis "was adopted solely for j
taxation purposes and quite irre- j
sponsive of the intoxicating" quality
of the liquor taxed."
"If, therefore, according to its
proper construction," the opinion con
tinucs, "the act of congress of November
21, does not prohibit the man
ul'acture or sale of non intoxicating
beer, the proposed enactment extend
irg the prohibition to non intoxicating
liquors would as to transactions
prior 10 us passage, oe in our opinion
unconstitutional and void because
violative of the letter and spirit of
the mandate in Section 9, Article 1 of
the constitution of the United' States
that no ex post facto law shall be
passed by congress.
"The amendment in the house of
section 1 of the. Volstead bill by inserting
the word 'hereafter' before
the word 'construed' was probably
for the purpose of avoiding this constitutional
point; but it would permit
one construction of the same term as
to acts done prior to its passage and
a different and broader construction
as to acts done afterward. But the en
actment tends to establish that the
true intent was to enact practically
new legislation beyond the scope of
tin: existing enactment.
The senate committee decided to
recommend an amendment to the
house bill which would permit the
manufacture of 'hion intoxicating'*
wine and cider for home use only.
The house recently refused to change
the bill in this respect and prohibition
leaders announced they would
stand out to the end against modification.
