Attorney-GeneraI Says Presi-

PHILADELPHIA, April 25.--"1f Presi-

nominated and would be reelected. ]

This is the optimistic prediction OF
Attorney General A. Mitchell Palmer, in
a statement issued to-day regarding the
reports that Mr.. Wilson might seek
third term.
Incidentally. Mr.. Palmer. who spoke
last night in this city. 5!sclaimed any
personal Presidential ambitions, and EN-
phatically said the Department of JUS
tice would enforce prohibition following
July I. On prohibition he said
You can hardly say that demobiliza-
tion has taken place. when We have "A
million men or so under arms, as we will
have then. Unless the President re-
sends his proclamation the country Will
go dry July I. Can we enforce the law
in this regard? Why not? II the law
was damned through without specifically
providing that the Internal Revenue De-
partment should see to tho enforcing,
without providing funds for that pur-
pose, the Department of Justice has al
ways had funds and the resources to
enforce laws when no specific provision
war made for any other department OF
the Government TO do no.
"Of course, X It Is going to take mil
lions to enforce that law. IL will be a
different matter. The Department OF
Justice does not have millions for such a
purpose.
I'VE are going to have woman suf-
fringe. 1t has been q long time coming
like prohibition, but ii will come, and

Apparently Frightened by
Prospect of Party Action
Against Him.
SpecidI Despnfch 10 The SrN.

WASHINGTON, April 25.-Postmaster-
General Burleson. In his daily attack,
to-day made the newspaper publishers
his target on the assumption that at the
meeting to-day Of the American News
paper Publishers Association "Burieson
methods" would como in for rhe usual
bitter criticism.
1t is Mr.. Burleson's idea that the MEM
bers of this association will not be really
intent upon bringing about improvements
In the postal or wire services, but in
their share Of the s72.ooo.ooo they
have been enjoying as an annual subsidy
for many years and as to how they may
recover the part OF which they were
deprived by Congressional action and
how to remove the danger Of losing more
OF 1t There may be little said by them
about this legalised graft, but 1t will be
uppermost in their minds just the same"
The "legalized graft" referred to by
Mr.. Burleson is the supposed loss on
second class mail, which Mr.. Bureson
now declares to have been $4,000, 900
annually, but which the zone rates re-
duced to $50 100000. However, the an
nual reports Of the Postmas ter General
| claimed to show that these postal sur
pluses were realized: 1919. $5.s2s,236
1917. se.sS6.2l1; 1918. $1s,s7s.7ss.
c. J. Post. an official OF tho publish
ers organization. was picked out for
particular attack by the Postma ster-
General, and the New York World Is
accused by Mr.. Burleson Of downright
lying. The TRADE concludes IN these
words:
THE Postmaster General asserts that
the mail service during the war period
has been maintained upon an exception
ally efficient basis. and confidently be-
lieves that every fairminded. unselfsh
honest American, judging from his own
| experiences and considering the diff
culties confronting the postal estab-
lishment. recognizes this as "A fact. But
this Is not the issue here. Keep that In
mind"
The claim OF Mr.. Burieson that there
| Is nothing the matter with the postal OF
wire services comes ms a sequel 10 the
report that the President would be ad.
vised that at the Democratic National
Committee meeting next month Il Is
practically certain that resolutions ask
ing for the removal OF Mr.. Burleson as
too great a detriment to the party and
its chances In the future will be sub
m!tted and voted upon. II was reliably
reported here that not only has this
| been communicated to Mr. Wilson In
Paris, but that Mr Burleson has cabled
him synopses OF the statements he has
been issuing OF late at the rate OF a,
least one a day to Offset the effort inside
the Democratic party to persuade the
President TO put his present Postmaster
General on the skids.
