 Mrs. Beauchamp characterized the name "Anti-SaIoon League" as sus- picious at the best and did not believe the National organization should undertake to endorse state organiza- tons in any policy which indicated e compromise with liquor interests.
 The trouble resulted from an att tembt of the Nebraska division to secure from the National organization an endorsement of its action in sup- porting proposition for local option in this state as against statewide prohibition.
 Mrs. Lillian M. N. Stevens. National President. stated that the endorsement of the action of the Nebraska division did not put the National organization on record as endorsing any particular policy. but Mrs. Beauchamp spoke dis paregingly of the .anti-saloon league in Kentucky and indicated that she was suspicious Nof all such organiza- tions
