President of Brewers Says LO.
cal Option Will Force 1t
Into Politics.

MILWAUKEE,, Wis, June 9.-What
is regarded as the most important con
vention in the history of the brewing
interests of the country, opened today,
when the United States Brewers AS
ISOLATION met in the Terminal building
in this city.
Mayor David s.. Rose, of Milwaukee,
who has started a crusade against low
saloons in Milwaukee, made an adj
dress of welcome. Arthur Brisbane, of
New York, L. scheduled to make an
address before a large public meeting
at the Alhambra Theatre today, when
he will discuss Relation of the Drink
Problem to the Public"
President julius Lehman, of the as
sociation, followed with his annual adj
dress, in which he said, in part:
THE regulation of the saloon has
been needlessly complicated by expert
mental legislation, party politics. po-
lice corruption and inefi1ciency. Fixed
and arbitrary limitations. imposed upon
communities by the State, without re-
gard to local conditions, have only in
creased the difficulty. To keep the sa-
loon out of politics it must first be
taken out of politics. And the best
way to keep it in politics Is to provide
by local option laws for the constant
agitation of the license question with
the element of harassing uncertainty
which this involves. In recent years
the saloon has been growing to be less
and less a political factor. Today it
threatens to become the biggest politi-
cal issue in our history"
