This paper has been printing a U.S. drinks ban as still dated the 29th. [1] Saturday is September 12. The 12th is not the 29th. A dated future ban is not in force today. Print the 29th. Do not print today.

No Saturday acceleration of the 29th is in Washington copy, so the drinks ban remains dated the 29th and not today.
The 29th is still the 29th. Saturday recap that treats September 12 as the ban date is a feed, not the calendar.
No Saturday date-change is in the drinks file, so the 29th remains the dated ban.
The calendar has not jumped.
This edition will not invent a ban-today to fill a quiet Saturday.

Saturday is not the 29th.
