EXPLAINS HIS
Two letters
President Wilson Writes
Col. Haldeman.
Stands By Local Option As Set
Element For Liquor
Question.

In respOnce to a request by Col w.
B. Haldeman, asking that he state
his views on the prohibition question,
President Wilson has sent a letter,
received by Col. Haldeman Tuesday,
in which the Chief Executive says
that he wishes to make 1t explicit
that there is no inconsistency be-
tween two letters written by him,
known as the Shannon and Grogan
letters.
Both were written in 1911 when
President Wilson was Governor of
New Jersey. In the Shannon letter
the President expressed his belief
that the prohibition question should
be settled by local option. In the
Grogan letter, one paragraph was to
the effect that the writer was unwill-
ing to say that there were no circum-
stances under which agitation for
Statewide prohibition would be
Justified.
Asks for Statement.
Col. Trademarks letter to the Pres
ident follows:
my Dear Mr.. President:
Statewide prohibition has been
made an issue by two of the candi-
dates for the Democratic gubernator-
ial nomination in Kentucky. and in
that connection the so-calledE Grogan
letter is being used to imply that you
approve of this principle in certain
which are declared to
At the present Kentucky political
situation. On the other hand. the
so-called Shannon letter is being us
ed in an effort to prove that you
stand for local self-government as q
principle for Democrats to observe.
"If you feel that the situation war
rants. should be pleased to have
/ statement of present date from you
as to your general attitude toward
.he questions presented by these let
,ers. Such a statement would do
much to emphasize what you obvious
y intended by the Shannon letter.
"Your obedient servant.
wv. B. HALDEMAN." l'
Letters Not Inconsistent.
The Presidents reply follows:
MY Dear Mr.. Haldeman:
II have your letter of May s, and
must apologize for not having replied
o 1t sooner. am sure that you will
the pressure of circurn-
stances l have been under.
1.-THE reply to your letter is very
simple. My so-called Shannon let
er precisely defines my position with
'egard to the liquor issue. not only =
Is 1t was when l wrote the letter,
,ut as it is now, and the letter to
Mr.. Grogan is, or was, at any rate,
Intended to be entirely consistent
With. What intended to say to Mr..
,rogan. and think that said with
ufficient clearness was that, while
he position had taken in the Shan
ION letter expressed my fixed convic-
ions in the matter, was not self
confident or self-opinionated enough
o say what the proper cour,e of &C
ion was, either in Texas or any
'ther State where was not person
lily in touch with the condition OBJ
aiming. I felt that 1t would be ar
ogant on my part to state that there
we're in my opinion no circumstances
which justified an agitation for
statewide prohibition.
II am sure that you yourself felt
hat there was no Inconsistency be-
ween the two letters, and I am sim
erely obliged to you for having af-
orded me the opportunity to make
his very explicit.
Cordially and sincerely yours.

Of the frill.
English eyelet embroidery is favored
above all else for the strip, though
some frills of fine voile are edged with
narrow filet lace and attached to a
strip of the lace-but wider. Some
models show the frill on both sides OF
the strip. In this case the jabot ends
just below the bust and the frill is car.

Tiny pearl buttons are used for trim
ming neckwear. in place of the little
linen buttons of last year. They have
no visible means Of attachment, but
are known as trimming buttons. The
ordinary pearl buttons with holes fol
sewing are not the proper thing.
These are small details, but they
mark the up-to-date neckwear; anc
one might as well get the correc
thing when purchasing.
All neckwear apparently closes ir

frequently close in the back. but show

much better condition for the crops.
AS soon as one crop is taken out the
soil should be put in condition for the
next plants to go in.
Weeds are largely eliminated by
this practice. A few crops require
a whole season to mature in, such as
Long Blood beets, egg plant, water
melons, onions, peppers, winter
squash and tomatoes. Other vege-
tables mature quickly, as string
beans, lettuce, turnip beets, summer
squash and turnips.
Radishes can be grown very quick
ly and reseeded in the same rows.
1t is not an easy matter to say just
which varieties will thrive best In
the various localities. 1t would be
like advising when to plant the differ
ent varieties.
One will make no mistake in study
ing the seed catalogues and the agri-
cultural bulletins, for they aim to give
reliable information. It is better to
stick to the standard varieties that
have proved adapted to your locality.
Celery, cabbages, cauliflowers, tur-
nips, tomatoes, eggplant and some of
the other vegetables may be tr; ns-
planted from May until July. June is
the best time for transplanting celery
and all the cabbage family when the
vegetables are wanted for winter use.

ioned of crepe or chiffon
Evening gowns generally have no
sleeves, or very tiny ones.
Jackets to correspond nicely with
the full skirts should be short.

style innovations for waist fashions as
well as for gowns.

the last style specifications received.
Old-fashioned checked silks in snuff

The high collared waist with a
shirred yoke and collar or organdie
and bodice of null or lawn is another
vogue Of much interest.
