THfe FREEPOftt JOURNAL-STANDAItt) FRIDAY, JANUARY 26, 1034 11 FAILS 10 GEI AFTER LONO AND DISORDERLY SESSION HOUSE ADJOURNS UNTIL TUESDAY BILL LACKS SiSfOF VOTES EMERGENCYJJLAIJSE REQUIRES Expected Tlial Administration Will Use Utmost Efforts to Obtain These BY MTLBURN P. AKERS (Associated Press Staff Writrrt Springfield, Jan. Thc proposed liquor control bill for Illinois has again failed of passage. Lncklnu six of the 102 hoiwr votes necessary for emergency approval of t.hn conference committee's report, the lower chamber 'ate yesterday recessed until Tucs- dav amid scenes of disorder and charges of "political deals" nncl corruption. Between now and Tuesday efforts will be mnde to obtain the six votes needed for approval of the report which has already received senatorial sanction.

If they are received Illinois will have a regulatory law within on- other week. If they cannot be obtained another delay will ensue ns the bill Is sent brick to a conference committee for further revision. Develops Into Partisan FlRlit The controversy has developed into a partisan fight, the house Democrats supporting the bill now rewritten and the Republicans demanding further alterations. Hours were spent In oratory by house members yesterday, Republicans under the leadership of Elmer Schnnckcnbcrg, Chicago, minority leader, nnd Lcroy Green, Rockford, attacking the measure from many angles. Democrats, led by Thomas Sinnett of Rock Island, majority leader, and John Devlnc of Dlxon were equally ardent in their defense of Hie measure.

Governor Horncr and Mayor Edward Kelly of ChicaRO, each of whom had a hand in the writing of the bill, wore attacked by many of the Republican representatives for allegedly seeking to usurp legislative perogatives. Other Democratic party lenders, Including Patrick A Nash, national committeemun, came In for verbal lambaslings ns Republicans made a field day at the expense of the less oratorical Democrats. Roll Call Lasts For Hours After the tumult and shouting of the orators had died away the roll call was commenced, starting late in the afternoon. The clerk started the call of the 150 members shortly after 2 o'clock but it was nearly 7 o'clock when Democratic leaders finally decided that the 102 votes could not be obtained and decided to recess until Tuesday. When the roll call had been under way for more than two hours the affirmative votes had reached 88 with 39 having been cast in the negative.

For a time it seemed as though that was as high as the call would go. Then a recess was taken. Numerous conferences were held between political leaders, administrative officials and members of the house. It had developed that one of the major objections held by many representatives was the inclusion In the bil lof a 50 cent gallonage tax on industrial alcohol. Democratis leaders obtained pledge from Governor Horner, Lt.

Governor Donovan and Democratic senate leaders that the present session would not be adjourned until time was had for the introduction of a bill amending the present measure so as to strike out this tax. Interruption of Three Hours These nnd other negotiations occupied nearly three hours. When the roll call was resumed Rep. Sol Roderick, Chicago Republican, who had voted for the measure previously, took the floor and said he hart been informed of the compromise on the industrial alcohol and asked Sinnett if it were correct. The Democratic leader replied It was.

Lt-Roy Green jumped to hl.s feet with the remark that the exchange of conversation between Roderick and Sinnett appeared to be a part ol a well rehearsed play and de-mandi to know if they hail been practicing the lines for the "act lor past three hours." Speaker Arthur Hoe Interrupted with the declaration that he had bfcui at the conferences mid that such a compromise on industrial alcohol met the uppruvul of the governor and the tnmi the governm and the n.tte arters mean noth- tn u.x hhoiued. "Wlmi want is (lie assurance of Pal and M.i.vin They air this not tlie enioi." APPLE RIVER SUNDAY SCHOOL CLASS HOLDS MEETING Apple River. 111., 20- At the wUnp of the Ruth Circle cln.ss of Methodist.
