MANY LEADERS WAN!
DRY PLANK LEFT OUT
Believe Platform Should Be Silent OH
Prohibition.
RIVAL PLANKS DRAFTED
>@yyan and Burleson Draw Up Propos.
" ed Stand for Party to Take.

San Francisco, June 27.-Both vets
and drys today launched their planles
on the Democratic seas of alcoholic
differences, with stormy passage
promised to the final harbor of the
convention floor. ...
For the drys, William j. Bryan made
public his proposed plank, sweeping
declaration for enforcement of the
Volstead law without increase in be-
verages alcoholis contents.
From the wet camp came alternative
planks drafted by Postmaster General
Burleson. One declares for "individual
liberty" and modification of the Vol
stead law to remove it's drastic and
unreasonable features" and the alter
nate for amendment permitting bcver
ages ain fact not Intoxicating"
The planks are to be presented tothc
resolutions committee upon it's organi-
zation and regardless of the outcome
there it was generally expected that
the liquor fight would reach the con-
vention itself. n
With both wet and dry factions
working hard through the Sabbath,
there also was strong movement to
prevent any mention of the liquor ques
tion in the platform, a movement
backed by many forceful leaders.
Bryan's Plank.
The Bryan prohibition plank follows

ocratic party on it's splendid leader

ship in the submission and ratification
of the prohibition amendment to the
Federal Constitution and we pledge
the party to the effective enforcement
OF the Volstcad law, honestly. and in
good faith without any increase in the
alcoholic contents Of permitted bever-
ages and without any weakening of
any other of it's provisions"
"I guess there is no doubt about
what has MEANS" said Mr.. Bryan. we
will give every delegate a chance to
go on tecord for or against it. I ex-
pect to have it adopted by the resolu-
tions committee.
Mr.. Burleson, after reading the
Bryan plank gave out his proposal
declaring, however, he had drafted
them by himself and spoke only for
himself and was not to be regarded as
the leader of the forces favoring modi
fication Of present laws.
The proposed plank, which Mr.. Bur
leson said he believed would meet the
sentiment of the "great majority of
the American people," reads:
Burleson's Plank.
"The open saloon has been generally
condemned by the American people as
menace to society and tic well be-
ing of the people and it's restoration
should not be tolerated. The validity
of the eighteenth amendment to the
Constitution having been sustained by
the Supreme Court, any law enacted
under its authority must be strictly
enforced However, the Democratic
party pledges it's utmost endeavors to
prevent this new grant of federal
power from being exercised in such
manner as to become oppressive or de-
privc the people Of that individual lib
crty which it was the purpose of the
Union Of States to guarantee and pre-
serve through all time. The Volstead

lican Congress, is all extreme exercise
fthe powers granted by the eight
eenth amendment and it should be so
amended in strict conformity with the
spirit and purpose of the Constitution
so as to eliminate therefrom its
drastic and unreasonable features. We
,, favor an amendment to the Federal
Constitution requiring all amendments
hereafter proposed thereto, to be rati-
fled or rejected by referendum of
the qualified voters Of the several
States of the Union"
The alternative PLANK OF Mr.. Bur-
Lesson which he said could be given
full support by the many delegates op-
posing any mention of the prohibition
question on the platform declares:
Saloon Condemned.

a woman's fondest hope is to stay
young. She often resorts to paints,
powders and cosmetics to hide her
years. Some women pay large sums to

wear girlish dresses, thinking they can
fool the world about their age. But
no one is deceived. The more you try
to hide your age, the more it shows.

age back, and that is health. Sickness

What proof have you that he has

what special inducement would it be
to him if he was? Hoover can obtain
much better positions than that of a

HIGH-PRIcED FOODS AND
FEEDS IN PROSPECT

The wheat and oats crops will be
very short in the South this year.
In fact, it seems that the wheat crop
of the entire country will be short.
The price of wheat is high at this
time, and unless very large crop is
grown in one or more large wheat
growing countries, the price will be
much higher next fall.
1t now seems almost certain that
the price of all foodstuffs and feed
stuffs will be unusually high for a
year or two. If this happens to be
a good cotton year, big crop will be
grown and the price will be forced
down. The wise farmer will grow the
necessary food and feed and then
cotton.-The Progressive Farmer.
