SAINTS DISCUSS
LIQUOR QUESTION
Editor SjodahI of News and
Representative Speak on
the Issue.
THEY FAVOR PROHIBITION
SALOON MONEY is TAINTED,
SAYS J. !. CANNON.

Prohibition was the theme Of the speak
ers at the tabernacle yesterday afternoon
The speakers were John NJ. Sjodahl. edi-
tor of the Deseret Evening News; Joseph
J. Cannon. member OF the house of rep
Tesentativcs. and Alexander Buchanan,
jr-. clerk of the house Of representatives.
Mr. SjOdahl. the first speaker said IN
part: ''The subject at the present time
that is prominent in pubic tnought
and discussion is whether II would be best
fer this state 10 exclude by law intoXi-
cants Of every kind. On the solution OF
this question depends a great deal. IL s
a question which concerns our bodies, u
is one that concerns our souls. our homes
and our churches; therefore il is so wide
in its application that il cannot be left
out of oBr worshiping assemblies.
we ara told that prohibition does not
prohibit and therefore we do not want It.
That all depends on how the laws are
maintained. and the enforcement Of the
law depends on the honesty of the Off
cials. In San Francisco at the time of the
great earthquake the first thing that the
authorities did after the great disaster
was to close all the saloons and it fol-
lowed that the crime committed was "
per cent less than before. The same has
been the experience in other places. Law
does not co away with all eriminaiity- but
a good law properly administered would
drive away from the public thoroughferes
temptations. and even that would be worth
while.
Iatoxiesnts Should Be Abolished.
let as many o. us who have in cur
hearts the welfare OF the city, the vel
fare of our state. our home and our young
generation. let US rise up and prevent the
sale Of intoxicaEts.'
Joseph J. Cannon was the next speaker
Afr Cannon said in part: This idea Of
Individual responsibility for others who
form the community has undergone a
great change In the question that Is he
fore us at present 1t seems to me no rea-
sonable person will find fault with any
movement for the suppression of vice and
the protection of happiness. When the
evil OF drink affects only the individual
we might say It is for him to take care
~ It himself but when its influence ex-
tends to the family, the community and
economic harm has been done. and the
state must provide hospitals for the care
Of its victims. then no rational person
win say It is not a problem for the gov
eminent.
II do not believe in licensing prostitu-
ton. The money derived from such
practice is not clean money I do not
want the money that comes from the sale
81 liquor and the license OF debauched
women in the treasury of a government of
which 7 am part. I would sooner myself
bear a heavier burden. We cannot afford
10 listen to the cry that is raised that
this will decrease our revenue
We want prohibition because we live
here; we want prohibition because our
children are growing up here: we want II
for the sake OF humanity
Alexander Buchanan. jr.. was the last
speaker and he asked for the blessing of
God on the prohibition movement

Policy Takes Time.

we desire to concentrate our people in
the Orient and to consolidate our inter
ests in this part of the world. We are
doing our best to carry out this policy
but a governmental policy cannot always
be made fully operative in day or a
year. We have tried. We must have sur
ficient time to study the whole question
and work out the solution Of the problem.
] think there will be little complaint con
corning the emigration of Japanese labor
ers in the future on the part Of any gov
eminent in America"
Count Komura then made it very plain
that, while his government would not fali
effectively to restrict emigration and
while it would spare no just and proper
efforts to maintain the most cordial and
friendly relations with this country, he
hoped that on our own part no discrimi-
nation would be made against japanese
subjects and that IN due time the public
sentiment in this country may be as Ia
vorable to his countrynen as to other
foreigners residing in the United States.
''The japanese government has declared
a new policy in the matter OF directing.
so far as is possible, the movement Of
its emigrating labor class. 1t wants time
to work the policy out and expects that
reasonable degree Of patience will be
used by the people Of the United States
