A London cablegram some days
ago told how the United States De
partment of State Is taking measures
TO check the assistance OF the Anti
Saloon League Prohibition campaign
in Europe, This cableGram was
based on an article In the London
Daily Mail which stated that two
agents of the League who recently
sought passports preparatory to Wis
ting England were unable TO OBJ

The London Daily Mail story says:

fully alive to the detrimental effects
which assistance OF the Anti Saloon
League to Europe might have on IN

the present time. ard * said 10 be

standings"
This cock-and hull story of the
Mail is without foundation. When

should have special consideration
