Anti Saloon Organization
Later May Call Conference
to Form One. i
WHITMAN Is OPTIMISTIC
Says America, Llquorless, Will
Outdistance Other Nations
Industrially.

COLUMBUS, Ohio, Nov. 21.-No' at.
tempt will be made at this time to form
a league Of nations to work for world
wide prohibition. II was said to-day by
dry leaders participating in the world
wide prohibition conference here. To
undertake It at this time. It was
pointed out, would be useless In view OF
the small representation OF foreign coun-
tries occas!oned by the world war
1t Is expected that the only steps to
be taken toward such organization now
will be for the Anti-Saloon League OF
America, as the principal factor in the
movement, to extend an Invitation to
dry organizations of other countries to
participate in a future meeting when
'he worldwide organization will be
formed. No definite time has been men,
toned for this next meeting.
Gov. Whitman Of New York, address
ing the conference tonight, said:
Though l have never been disposed
to deny, the largest liberty OF personal
action and thought to others and have
always claimed It for myself, and while
I have never believed that drinking OF
wine or OF beer or OF any stimulant

essarily or Inherently wrong, yet 1 do
believe that 1t Is wrong for the American
nation longer to permit the licensing and
the continuance OF an industry whose
completed product Is found in the aims

ROCHESTER, n. Y. Nov 21.-Public

necessary piece Of after war reconstruc-
tion In speech to-day at the conven-
ton Of the National Municipal League
by DR.. Delos F. Wilcox OF the bureau
Of standards at Washington.
I'VE have reached a crisis In the
street railway business" he said, "has-
tened the extraordinary prices OF labor
and materials. but with its origin in the
force that has negotiated franchises and
engineered leases, consultations, mer-
gers and holding companies with the de-
sire for illegitlmate profit
"1n the present era of financial dis
tress when 1t is evident that there Is no
future for speculation In street railways,
the public service corporations are seek
ing to save themselves. Private specu-
latlon in urban railways is generally
recognized to be out of date, and the
simple way OF eliminating speculation
IL through public ownership and opera
ton.
The street railway business is on the
rocks. The speculative regime has
proved to be a dismal and deadly fall
