MAYOR BATSON EXPLAINS
his STAND In MATTER
Reason For Delay Is That Committee
of Churchmen Are Anxious to Avoid
If Possible, Open spIit-They Believe
Understanding Can Be Reached With
Druggists and Others Without As.
sistance of Law.

Unless the committee Of Sunday
school leaders, who have the matter
in charge, are called together this aft
ernoon, drug stores and cigar stands
will be open here Sunday as usual
No action has been taken this week
in the matter, and H. S. Stevens, who
Is chairman of the committe, said this
morning that he did not think it prob
able the committee would meet today.
Unless they do meet today, any ac-
tion they take probably would have no
effect, for Mayor Batson wants at
least one day to pass the word
to the people who have been in the
habit of keeping open on Sunday.
The fact that the committee has
taken no action this week is not an in
dication that the matter will be drop
ped, according to Mr.. Stevens. On the
contrary, the committee members say
they are determined on closing the
drug stores.
One reason for the delay, it was ex.
planned, Is that leaders in the commit
tee are anxious to avoid, if possible, an
open split in the community. They
believe by delaying drastic action for
this week it may be possible for the
committee, the druggists and Mayor
Batson to reach a mutual understand
ing as to what kinds of establishments
shall be closed on the Sabbath.
Mayor Batson is anxious that such
a meeting be held. Some of the church
men, he believes, have acquired the
wrong impression as to the mayors
stand in the matter.
"They seem to think" said Mr.. Bat
son, "that by announcing that I will
enforce the law against all establish
ments that come under the law If l en-
force it against the drug stores, am
doing so for the purpose of defeating
the object of the committee.
"As a matter of fact, it is not option
al with me as to who I enforce 1t
against. Law enforcement is law en-
forcement, and if the law says milk
wagons shall not be run on Sunday, it
is just as much my duty as an officer
of the law to enforce it against the
owners of milk wagons as it is against
the owners of drug stores if they are
brought into my court. 1t is not entire
ly of my own volition that l have an
nounced my determination to enforce
the letter of the law against one and
all alike; 1t is because l have been
notified that If l enforce 1t against
the drug stores, l will be called upon
to enforce it against these other in
dustries, and when it comes down to
a question of law enforcement, there is
no argument. will impose the penalty
of the law against every one convicted
before me of violating the law"
The mayor wants to meet with the
druggists and churchmen before any
further action is taken so that he may
understand thoroughly whatever agree
ment is reached at this meeting, and
he has agreed to abide by any agree
ment that the two sides to the contro'
versy may reach.
