Kramer Says Prohibition
Never Will Be Repealed

WASHINGTON, May 8.-Federal
Prohibition Commissioner Kramer,
speaking at today's session of the as
sociation's annual meeting, declared
prohibition is here to stay." He
warned the American Pharmaceutical !
Association to keep the druggists free
from the name of retail liquor deal
ers."
Prohibition has been written in the
Constitution" Mr. Kramer said. "and
it will never be taken out of it in the
history of the country No man talks
about saloon any more. No politician
is fool enough to talk about going be-
fore the people to reestabiish the
saloon"
The commissioner told the druggists
that if they were mot mighty careful"
they would ain name and fact be
liquor Dealers" and added that "no
man ever has a disease any more that
takes les than a pint to cure"
"The thing that bothers me more
than anything lse," said Mr.. Kramer,
"is to keep the profession of medicine
and the trade Of the druggist on the
high plane they have always occupied "
Enforc ement of the Eighteenth
Amendment was described by Commits
sioner Kramer as "a big job" He
added that well get away with it in
generation"

Hoover Declares
.JOhnson's Answer
Is 'sSmOke Screen
Senator Leaves His Own
Position ON League OBJ
scure, He Charges; Calls
for Constructive Ideas

Herbert Hoover said in statement
issued last night that Senator Hiram
w. Johnson has not answered his ques-
tion about what kind of peace treaty
he stands ready to approve, and he
presses further request on the Cali
fornia Senator to make himself clear
to the American people. His statement
follows:
Senator johnson has not answered
my question. Instead he has emitted
quotations which he attributes to me.
AS matter of fact, these quotations
have come from some one else. have
never made or approved any of them.
Perhaps the Senator will correct this
impression. The Senator apparently
does not wish to say yes or mo as to
whether the English League as he
calls it, is the covenant with the Lodge
reservations. Does the Senator wish
to leave an imputation on the patriot
ism of the majority of the Republican
Senators or myself?
League Held World Issue
"The league is not, however, a mat
ter of trivial personalities. 1t is an is
sue upon which hangs the moral and
economic well-being Of the whole
world, from which the United States,
even If we would, cannot separate.
"The Senator asks the American peo-
pie to make him President. He states
that he has consistently opposed the
pact as presented with the reservations
attached trhat he would welcome any
real attempt to promote peace and
that he has never opposed a league
to prevent war and reduce armament
Will the Senator change his express
sion from 4 have never opposed
league to 4 will support a league for
this purpose? And will he state what
the construction of that League is to
be, and where it will differ from the
league with the reservations as agreed
TO by the majority of the Senate?
1.-The Presidency is an Office of con-
structive leadership. The affairs of the
nation cannot be conducted by destruc-
tive criticism without alternative pro-
posals. The voters have right to
know what the Senator's constructive
alternatives are before pledging their
votes.
New Antagonisms Born
"The world is drifting further and
further into increasing antaeonsms.
increasing armament. We are faced
with crashing taxation for increased
military establishment. Our economic
relations with the world are becoming
more and more demoralized because Of
the delay in settlement of these ques-
tions. This decentralization Is already
manifesting itself in the prices Of raw
materials from our farms and will soon
manifest itself in the employment of
our workers.
"Is the Senator prepared to give us
a constructive solution of these prob
lens? If so, what?"

General W0od Favors
National Forest Policy
First Presidential Candidate to
Aduocate the Preservation
andA Protection Of Timber

From, The Tr!ba,,e's Washington. bureau
WASHINGTON, May 8.-The first
candidate for the Presidency to an
nounce himself strongly in favor Of a
national forest policy is General
Leonard Wood. In a letter to-day to
Charles Lathrop Pack, president of the
American Forestry Association, he
points out the need of immediate ac-
.tlon to provide for the perpetuation of
the nations forests. The letter read
IN part:
"rhe steady decrease in our forested
land, the losses by forest fires and
disease, the growing acreage of cut
over lands interested, but serviceable
only for forests, all emphasize the need
OF forest policy which will provide
Ior proper protection Of our forests,
Tor reforestation and for Investigation,
TO determine the best means for per
petuating them.
Our citizens in the last two wears
nave been brought to a realization or
what vital factor in the prosperity
OF the country our forests are; they
k"ew how greatly our forest holdings
E@ae been decreased and they ap-
preciate the danger Of the disappear
ance OF our forests. 1t is time, there
1ore, for prompt action, so that our
forests may be so managed and pro-
tected that they yield timber as a
periodical crop and that our waste
9ands be restored to the forests where
ever possible
The American Forestry Association
Ss preparing fer Congress and state
legislatures bills covering these points.

Notice

Due to unfavorable weather it has
been decided to extend the cleanup
week over the week of April 18th to
18th inclusive. We hope that every
citizen of Hays will take a special
interest in this matter and make
every effort to clean up their yard,
alley or parking in front of their
property, placing all tin cans, bottles
and other rubbish in boxes accessible
to teams, and ashes in piles in the
alleys as we will not be able to take
care of tin cans and bottles unless
they are in boxes convenient for
loading as it will be quite an expense
to the City to make this thorough
cleanup and will be impractical for US
to have to pick the rubbish up off the
ground.
Will every citizen get behind this
movement and give Hays one good
cleanup j. c. Manning,
