One of the high spots of Saturdays
session was the report of the temper
ance committee, which condemned the
attempt of some of the men in high
office to override the prohibition
amendment to the constitution by dis
regarding the Volstead enforcement
act. The conference went on record
as favoring for election to office only
those men who were unalterably OPP
posed to any violation or deviation
whatsoever of the amendment as
passed, and those who will stand for
it's enforcement to the letter.
An inspiring sermon was delivered
by the Rev. Thomas Hamilton Lewis,
