Dry League Not to
Search Homes for
''Private Stills
Bootleggers and Making of
Liquor Will Be Main At
tacking Points; ssBlind Ii
ger'' To Be Exterminated

COLUMBUS, Ohio, May 14.-A.state-
ment issued to-day from headquarters
of the National Anti-Saloon League, at
Westewille, in answer to inquiries as
to what the league will do in view of
statutory and constitutional prohibit
tion becoming effective soon, asserts
that first and foremost it expects to
continue it's work to the extent that
prohibition shall be enforced through
ou. the nation.
The prohibitionists recognize the fit
ting truth of the old doctrine that
every mans home is his castle. Resi-
dences, they sey, will not be invaded
by horde OF "false-w -whiskered,
strong-armed, unprlncipled detectives"
There will be nnremitting and relent-
less war on the bootlegger, the blind
tiger keeper, the moonshiner and the
blockade runner, but the decent,
reputable citizen need not fear that
his bedroom will be invaded by an
overzealous sleuth searching for a pos
siblc cache for liquor,
In short, it is pointed out, all that
has been sought Or accomplished is
prohibition Of the manufacture, sale,
transportation, importation and ex-
portation of the beverage liquor traf-
fic, and now the thing desired is alb
solute enforcement of that prohibition.

Firemen Unable to
Convert Governor
To Platoon Idea
Three Division Bill Is Not
Likely To Be Signed, He
Hints; Believes a Refer
endum Is Not Justified

ALBANY, May 14.-Governor Smith
this afternoon gave a delegation of
firemen, who urged favorable action
on the Blakely fireman's three platoon
bill, little cause for hope that he would
sign it. He was told by Edward J.
McGoldrick, Assistant Corporation
Counsel of New York City, who op-
posed the bill, that Mayor Hylan and
the city officials had planned for
two platoon system but that the plan
had been held up by the war. The
Governor suggested that the plan
should now be carried out in order to
give the firemen of New York some
relief, and Mr.. McGoldrck replied it
is now the intention 60 put it in opera
ton.
Under the Blakely bill, if the off
cisls of first class city refuse to
provide three platoon system, the
question can be put to vote of the
people. Governor Smith told the fire.

determination of elected city officials

Copeland Scofs at Drink Centres
For Chronic Alcoholics After .LuI,

DR.. Royal S. Copelar d, Health Com
missioner, yesterday scoffed at the no.
tion that it might be necessary to cs-
tablish drink dispensaries" to deal
with chronic alcoholics after the pro-
hibition law becomes effective. This
suggestion was made on Tuesday at
the Charities Conference by Judge Cor
nelius F. Collins, in a speech on the
dangers likely to follow prohibition.
THE problem of the chronic alco-
holic awakens no alarm in my breast"
said Dr. Copeland. "The difference be-
tween alcoholism and drug addiction
is that the latter induces a state Of
mind in which the addict becomes a
menace to society, if deprived of his
drug. The drunkard becomes a dish
rag. I don't doubt that great many
alcoholics are going to be very uncom-
Portable and unhappy after the first of
July, but they are not going to commit
crime, nor are they going crazy
81 have perfect confidence that the
New-York tribune., 1919-05-15

Federal government will make ample
provision for physicians to secure al
cohol for medical relief. 1t is a COM
holsm by 'tapering' off!
"The danger from alcoholics is not
that they will be denied alcohol, but
that they will turn from alcohol to
drugs. 1t is for this reason that | am
in such hurry to perfect the system
for regulating the drug evil before pro
hibition is actually upon us. If we
clear up the addicts we have always
with US, get them registered and sent
to hospitals for the cure, we would be
better prepared to face the problems
of increased drug addiction which are
sure to follow prohibition unless we
take precautionary measures at once. "
Under the present Federal law, es-
tablished during, the war, physicians
complain that they find it difficult to
secure alcohol for medical use. Only
one pint at time may be sold, even
to doctor unless he is under bond.
