There is considerable speculation as to
the results to be accomplished tomorrow
at the meeting of the State Enforcement

an interesting programme has been pre-

developments will be reported. On the
programme the most distinguished gem

the address of the evening session.
The future of the league will be a Sc

the methods which led to his Indictment

into disrepute and lost it support Flu
