I Reveals Meaning of Amendment.
% Representative Fields (Dem., Ky.>
reveaied tne meaning of the amendment
when he offered a motion to,
strike out the words "for sale." He*
appealed without result for che sup-1
port of all who believed in Prohibi-1
tion, contending that the law would,
be weakened if the words were allowed
tc stand.
"If you say an illicit distillery may
be established in every home,*' he de-,
clared, "you kill the Vohtead act." !
The House declined' to follow him I
and voted down his amendment, 54 J
supporting- it to 90 against.
The new search and seizure amendment,
as adopted by the House, was"
offered by Chairman Volstead, for
the Judiciary Committee, as a substitute
for the Stanley amendment o.
the Senate, which was broader and
forbade the search and aeizur?
process applying anywhere. As this
i-; the weakest proposition which wiV
be before the conferees of the House
and Senate, the home brewer or disjtiller
is certain to b? free from in
' terforencc.
| The amendment reads:
"That no officer, agent or em
jployee of the United States, wbil *
ongatred in the enforcement of th>
the National Prohibition Act, or any
law in reference to the manufacture
or taxation of, or traffic in in n
toxicating lirnior, shall search anv 9

warrant shall issue unless there is tj
rcp^nn to believe such dwelling is Sj
used as a nlace in which Honor is R
I manufactured for sale or sold. J
I "The term 'private dwelling' shall h
, 1 >o construed to include the room orjpj
room occupied not transiently hut ?
solely as i. residence in an apartment K
house, hotel or boarding house. Any |
violation of any provision of this H
paragraph shall be punished by a u
fine of not to exceed #1,000 or im- m
prisonment not to exceed one year. I
or both, such fine and imprisonment B
in the discretion of the court." j]
Proposals to broaden the defini- H
jtion of dwelling to include auto- Ij
j mobiles were turned down. ;
In attacking the Senate Amendment
Mr. Vol trad said if it were
; adopted "we might as well quit tryling
to enforce any Prohibition law.
The object of that amendment \>
!clearly to take away from the ofificers
the power to enforce it. It
(makes it a crimnal offense if they go!
and search anywhere, no matter if it
is in thr? open field out in the coun >
try or smirch a home. It makes it
illegal to search an automobile. It
makes <t illegal tQ search a man who
i?; in the act of violating the law.
a right which has always been recognized
throughout the country andj
throughout England."
Mr. Volstead, howeverfi favored the
[substitue adopted by the 1 Hous^ j
sayine: later that that amendment |
would not change the policy of the j
