 the guest of the King crowd, he was, in present day street parlance, ''raz- zed' by the Rorabackers who refused to come here to meet him. Hays was much concerned over the wide gap in the state lineup and declared then that he would bring about a union.
 The understanding is that the Re publican National Committee told King that he couldn't run Connecti- cut and National affairs at the same time, meaning that if he was to be allowed to further the candidacy of General Leonard Wood for president, he would have to in turn, allow a union of the Connecticut forces. King forthwith decided to stick to his Wood campaign job and consented to take an amicable attitude towards the RorabaCF faction.

information at the White House,
that it was considered possible h"
might be able to leave his bed fer
short time. This however, depend
ed on how DR.. Cary 7. Grayson
found him when he made his morn
ing visit.
DR.. GraySon probably will have
sole charge Of the patient within
few days. as there is no longer any
necessity fo1 daily consultations, 1t
was said. DR.. Sterling Ruffln
dropped out of the conference last
night. DR.. Francis X. Dercum,
Philadelphia, nerve specialist, IS to
see the President tomorrow.
Although President Wilson's con-
ditiGn ras steadily become better
during the last few days, there still
* chance of relapse such as IS
common ii eases of nervous cNhaus-
tian. Therefore, the utmost care
must be exercised for severol days

VETS READY TO If.
UPHOLD DRY LAW
Anti Prohibitionist Appli-
cation Will. Raise Clamor
For Repeal
WET XMAS POSSIBLE
Commissioner of Internal Revenue
Roper Counting on Support of VETS
in Enforcement of Law

Commissioner of Internal Revenue
Roper is counting on the support
of Authorization organizations
as well as the 'sdrys," in the en-
forcement of both the wartime pro-
hibition act and the constitutional
amendment prohibition law. Nume-
rcus letters have been received at
the Commissions office from perso-
nal liberty leagues and other organ
izations which have been framed to
oppose nation wide prohibition.
These organizations, in addition
to advocating law enforcement, ac-
cording to officials of the bureau,
are taking this position because
they believe as did the late Presi-
dent Grant, that the surest and
quickest way is to enforce it so rig
idly that the popular clamor will be
for its repeal. This policy suits
the drys entirely. They go on
the theory that rigid enforcement OF
the anti-liquor laws will demonstrate
their value.
Moving on the assumption that the
prohibition enforcement law, as IL
came from conference few days
ago will be speedily approved by the
House as it was by the Senate, the
Bureau of Internal Revnue has gone
forward with its arrangements to
nut the men in the field at work to
carry out it's provisions Already
the Commissioner has prepared
statement CT the policies of the bu-
reau in carrying out the provis!ons
of the law, and has instructions
ready to send to collectors and ether
field agents Throughout the country
as soon as the conference report is
adopted. 1t was said at the bureau
Yesterday that this policyf'would be
made public as soon as it goes out
to the revenue agents. =

SUGAR SHORTAGE

The sugar shortage IS confront
ing the candy industry, with the
most serious crisis in its existence,
according to member of one of the
big Baltimore firms. The situation
is worse than it was during the
war, he said. Then the manufac-
tureres had sugar, but the Govern
ment prescribed how much they were
to use. Now the Government I'M
poses no restrictions. but the manu-
facturers have practically no sugar.
And they do not know where to get
more.
Candy manufacturers have been
apprehensive for some time about
the shortage OF sugar. They have
been buying hand to mouth, so to
speak. Demands for candy has
been excellent-in fact, unprecedent-
ed-but getting sugar has been a
worrying problem. Now ''help" is
being curtailed, plants are "run-
ming part time and some of them
are practically at standsti!l. it i.
said.
An' the worst is ye, % come if
experts are to be believed. A
Shortage" is looked for the last.
six weeks of the year. With con-
ditions 50 distressing in advance,
this shortage promises real trouble.
