ALCOHOL CAUSES
TROUBLE AS USUAL
'This Time It Worries Deneratic
Delegates. Two .Planks Prepared.
- San Francisco, June 27.-'Both wets
-ald drys today launched their planks
on the -Democratic sea of alcoholic dif
ferences, with a stormy passage prom
Ised to the final harbor of the conven
tion floor.
For the drys 'William J. Bryan made
pueh'a pwrl,! d phaini 'sw,
decision for enforcement of the Vol
stead law without Increase In alcoholic
content of beverages.
From the wet camp came alternative
planks drafted by 'Postmaster General
Burleson. One declares for "individ
.tal liberty" and modification of the
Volstead law to remove Its "drastic
and' unreasonable features" and the
alternative for an amendment permit
ting beverages "In fact not intoxicat
ing."
The planks are t'o be presented to
the resolutions Committee 11pon Its or
ganization and regardless of the out
come there it was generally e'Ppectel
that the liquor fight would reach the
convention itself.
With both wet and dry factions
working hard through the Sabbath,
there also was a strong movement to
prevent any mention of the liquor
-luestion In tlie platform, a movement
backed by niny powerful leaders.
''lhe Bryan prohibition plank fol
"We heartily congratulate the Dom-.
OcratIc party on its splendid leader
ship in ithe submitssion and ratifleation
of tle prohibition amnicidient to the
fedeal-colst itlit foil and we pledge the
party to the effective enforcement of
the Volstead law, honestly and inl good
faith, without any increase in the al
coholle content of IerIitted beverag
es and withlioti. anly weakening of any
othe'r of its provisions."
"I guess there is no doubt. about
what that imeals,' said Mir. Bryan.
"We willi give every delegate a chance
to .o on record for or against it. I
expect to have it adopted by the reso
lutions committee."
'l ir. urleson, after reading the
1Brya n plailnk, gave out Ills proposal
(cvlaring, however, he had drafted
thIeit by himself and spoke only for
hi imself and.I. was not to be regarded
a leader of the forces favorin od
i flea tioni of preseit laws.
