Never Ending
w ar ON Drys
Is Declared
Mass Meeting Attended by
1000 at Garden De-
clares p eople Must
Elect ''Wet'.' Congress

mass meeting of protest against
prohibition, called at Madison Square
Garden last night by the Association
Opposed to National Prohibitions
seemed to be in danger of complete
disintegration half an hour after ii
started.
The meeting opened at $3.50 with
four or five thousand persons, most Of
them men, in the auditorium. Many
of them were shunted into the gal
leries as soon as they got inside the
building, despite the fact that some
of those so directed came provided
with tickets. About 8 o'clock, while
an army officer was speaking, the
exodus began.
Couldn't Hear Speakers
Arthur James Seavey, director OF
the association under whose auspices
the meeting was held, said that the
exodus was caused by an announce
ment that smoking would not be per
mitted. Some thought that those who
went out did so because they didn't
like their seats and couldn't hear the
speakers.
Anyhow, by o'clock nearly a third
of the audience was on it's feet
shuffling for the exits. Fifteen min
utes later the exits on Madison Ave
nue. were jammed by people abandoning
the meeting. They were unmoved by
the hoarse shouts of "Deserters! De-
serters!" which proceeded from q
flannel shirted man in the lobby as
regularly and vociferously as the ex.
haust from an engine. A man in
sailors uniform struggling to hold
place in the centre of the outward
bound current while he sold "No
Beer, No Work" placards didn't seem
to be doing much business.
Notwithstanding the inauspicious be
ginning the meeting proceeded with
the programme mapped out for it
Representatives of unions numbering
their members by the hundreds OF
thousands were present; there were
delegations from cities, clubs and civic
and national organizations.
People Robbed Of Liberty
The following resolutions were
adopted:
Whereas, IN a republic Of free
men the majority must rule if the
republic shall endure; and
Whereas, tyrannical minority,
mere handful Of professional agi
tators in a population Of 100000 900,
has caused to be engrafted upon the
Constitution of the United States an
amendment which practically nulli-
fes the first ten amendments to the
Constitution and which robs the peo-
pie of this republic of liberty sup
posed to have been forever safe
guarded and guaranteed by the fun
damental law Of the land; and
Whereas, if one right and one
liberty can be taken away by Con-
stitutional amendment, there IS moth
ing to prevent others being taken
away by the same method; therefore,
be it

Hindenburg Asks S,Uiss
To CiUe Him a Haven

GENEVA, May "a (By The Asso-
~ ciated Press ).-Field Marshal
Won Hindenburg formally appealed
to the Swiss government yesterday
asking permission to reside in
Switzerland as simple citizen.
The field marshal, who recently
bought a villa on the shores of
Lake Constance, added that he had
had only fourteen days holiday
since the war began.
The Swiss authorities are some
what embarrassed, as it is known
that Won Hindenburg is a monarch
ist and also an intriguer and may
use this neutral country as a nu-
cleus for further intrigues. 1t is
learned, however, that when suf-
ficient guarantees are given, per-
mission for his residence will be
granted. In the meantime, the Ger
mans continue their anti-Allied
propaganda in Switzerland.

of government supervision of traffic

Shippers association convention at

ment for federal supervision. The
leader of this sentiment Is @. Harold

Growers exchange. During the war
Mr.. Powell was first assistant to Her
bert Hoover In the food admiDistrn-
tion. He told the other fruit kings"
that federal supervision is desirable.

CIVIC GUARD PLANNED
TO MAINTAIN ORDER DURING
STRIKE IN ENGLAND.
London Daily Mail Forecasts Steps TO
BE Taken by Government to Pro
teet Public Service.

London, Feb. 5.--The ministry OF Ia
Dor will intervene In the strikes which
are spreading throughout Great Brit.
ain and Ireland II union officials fail
to gain control Of the situation.
The following statement was ls.
sued:
THE government regards the labor
situation as fight between regular
labor union leaders and rebels If the
regular leaders are unable TO gain con-
troll the government will then intervene
for the protection Of society"
London, Feb. 5.--Plans for the
formation of civic guard to maintain
and protect public service have
been submitted to the authorities.
according to the Mail. which says that
a similar plan has been successfully
employed In Switzerland. Holland and
Australia.
The newspaper states that, should
the actions of the strikers warrant
such a course, the citizens may be
asked TO form guard TO maintain
transport, lighting and food supply
services ana also to guard power sta
tions, -four mills and important fac
tories.
More than quarter of a million
men were demobIllzed In the week
ended January 30 and the total to
date has exceeded a million men. The
rehabilitation Is continuing In the
most satisfactory manner, but the
opinions prevail here that the one un
fortunate feature Of the situation is
that the men are not being absorbed
in civil occupations In proportion to
the rate Of rehabilitation.
That the industries OF the country
are unable to provide all the men with
Jobs Is said to be almost entirely due
to the fact that industry Is suffering
from shortage Of coal This short
age is one Of the most serious ques
tIons at present facing the country.

Washington, Feb. 6.-Insistence by
President Wilson upon the admins
tration's policy of naval expansion led
to the unanimous approval given by

house began consideration of the $780,.
100000 annual naval appropriation
bill.
MIR. Padgett told of cablegram sent

Cured over there to change the rec
concentrations he made In his annual
message to congress.
The message was brought to the AZ
tention OF the committee by Daniels.
"The president was very earnssr,
Representative Padgett said, ''and
very insistent that the three-year pro.
gram be carried out"
Mr.. padgett refused to make public
the cablegram. and 1t was under a
cross-fire of questions from Repub-
llcan men oers that lac referred to Its
substance.
"Did he say in substance that lack
Of the program would be fatal TO his
negotiations?" asked Representative
Rogers Of Massachusetts (Rep).
Excuse me from a statement" re
piled Mr.. Padgett. Il will neither af.
firm nor deny a word that was in

port was unanimous?" 2" asked Graham.
"Yes, sir" responded Mr. Padgett.
Mr.. Graham insisted then that CON

that 1t might act lntelligently on the
proposed construction.
Mr.. Padgett answered:
II cannot give 1t because It involves
more than our own domestic policy"
Representative Butler of Pennsyl-
vania said before new construction
could be started differcnt conditions
might make a larger navy un-
necessary.
Representative Blayden OF Texas
Dem) asked why an executive ses-
sion of the house could not be held,
but Representative Butler answered
that 1t would do no good. saying that
the message was read to naval commit
tee members who were enjoined not to
mention 1t, but that 1t became known.
