THIS WOMAN SAYS DRY
LAW RUINED SEATTLE

To the Editor of the Los Angeles
Times:
was reading in the Seattle Times
of August 4 about Los Angeles Pa
per Shedding Tears over Seattle
in regard to the dry law.
Well, | have lived in Seattle over
ten years, and prohibition has about
finished the place. We have all the
troubles that come with the dry
law. Seattle is a fine city, but we
have not the right people In office.
We have more preachers and re-
formers, talking politics and siding
in with a Mayor who Is nothing
more in the estimation Of many
people than an |. w. w. destroying
property. This will not stop drink
ing. | think the State that can not
regulate the liquor question is d
weakIing, and sooner or later will
fall.
Everywhere you 60 in the city Of
Seattle today you see the sign. For
Rent Any person seeing SO many
that something is wrong.
Tourists are not very many this
year and they make connections SO
closely that Seattle does not see
them. Many go by way Of Van
couver to Alaska and return home
by way Of Canada.
1t would pay you to visit Seattle
and see the empty stores. On First
avenue | think everyone is selling
out. Second avenue has plenty, too;
plenty of Offices to rent, also, and
houses. You get tired of counting
them.
Thousands Of people have left
Seattle; had to leave; could not get
any work, as the work was taken
from them. Times are dull and
taxes are awful. | know, as | own
property. | have advised many of
my friends in the East not to think
Of coming to Seattle at the present
time. Seattle is d big blow town,
and the drinking is going on Just
the same. Prohibition is a farce,
and hope the people of California
will keep their minds and will not
bring poverty on their heads and
have to go to another State to make
living, | know as soon as | can
sell what | have will go back to
Detroit. Warn the people,!

ALSO THE RECALL
indianapolis Star Whacks
CameI's Jockey for His Open
Distrust of American Citizens
If State Goes "Dry." He
Believes There Shall Be No
Reconsideration

Concerning J. Frank Hanly's frank
distrust of the American people, the
Indianapolis Star makes this editorial
comment:
1t is entirely in keeping with Mr.. J.
Frank Hanly's views that he should
|repudiate the declaration in the ma
tlonal Prohibition platform in support
Of the initiative, referendum and re-
call. His idea presumably is that
when prohibition is once made law
OF any state there shall be no recall,
no matter what the popular feeling on
the subject. Once accepted, means,
in his lexicon that it is permanently
cinched, and there shall be no recon
sheraton
Other Legislation may be subject to
referendum to the people without
disaster, as experience in Oregon and
Washington has shown, but it is the
intention Of Mr.. Hanly not to permit
such liberties to be taken with pro-
hibitiOn law.
His opposition to the principle of
the recall was we'll understood before
the adoption Of the Prohibition plat
form, but as he did not explain what
IS without doubt the chief cause Of his
objection to it, the platform makers,
who have regarded this plank with
&ecial favor, probably did not take
san seriously and SO included it,
Mr.. Hanly hardly needs this empty
honor of the Prohibition nomination
10 the presidency to give him an ex-
cuse to talk. He needs no excuse,
talking being his profession, but it
will give him publicity in certain
quarters that will profit him when
the campaign is over. Though it can
not approve their judgment, The Star
has the highest respect for citizens
who sincerely believe that prohibition
is the one important issue before the
country, but it has never counted Mr..
j. Frank Hanly as one Of these.

DURING A BIC RAID
Prohibition Sleuths Find That
Wheeling Is Very WET" and
Contiscate Much Liquor
Cop Shoots at LaWbreaker
Carrying Liquor, But Latter
Escapes

West Virginia has been technically
dry" for two years. Whether West
Virginia actually is dry" can best be
determined by the following account
from the Wheeling CIV. Va Register:
A vicious assault with an ice pick
upon Prohibition officer Martin
Neider, Il shower Of bullets directed at
a fleeing auto by Bert Phillips, and
one OF the largest quantities of intoxi-
cants cOntiScated' in several months,
is but brief summary OF the days
activities experienced by the Wheel
ing prohibition officers.
The attack upon Ncider was made
during the pull of Benwood speak
easy when the proprietor seized an
ice-pick loaded at the handle and
sharpened to a needle point and jump

ton Of either breaking his skull or

Eight kegs Of beer and six gallons
Of whisky were found in this place
at Benwood. Ncider's assailant and
three men and three women found in
the place were taken to Moundsville
and imprisoned in the Marshall county
Jail
Benwood was not the only town that
received the dry kicks" yesterday. A
number Of places in Wheeling were
visited
In this connection Earl carp was
found with four gallons of whisky and

In company with Earl we're found nine

gallon Of whisky and two quarts of
beer.
The proprietor escaped in the rear
OF 2223 Main street, but left behind
five baskets Of beer and quantity OK
whisky which Phillips and Neider
placed in safe keeping.
About 4:30 in the afternoon high
powered touring car packed with beer
rolled off the Twenty-fourth street
ferry. 1t had no more than crossed
the railroad tracks at the head of the
ferry incline until it was noticed by
Deputy Phillips, who was lying in wait
for such violators Of the law. Phillips
commanded the driver to stop, but the
command went UNDECIDED. Putting on
the highest speed his car was capable
OF, he started up Twenty fourth street,
down Main with Phillips in close Dur-
suit. Following closely on the trail
OF the fleeing auto Phillips saw that
he was being outdistanced Leaping
from the car he drew his revolver and
in last attempt to stop the law
breaker he fired three shots into the
rear OF the machine, but the car sped
onward.
