1OO.PROOF CONGRESS AIM
OF ANT|-sALo0N LEAGUE
Power OF Vets Not Entirely DOwMed
and Prohibition Is In Peril,
Say Leaders.

w AOIlAAN0lOAN, -. ~ NCPI' AO'
A program designed to rid" the gov
ernment of officials who do not OBJ
serves or enforce the spirit as we'll
as the letter" Of the volstead act was
put under way at the first session yes
terday of a national conference Of
Anti-Saloon League officials.
AS the first step the conference ap-
pointed a committee to draft a resO-
luton which, league officials said.
would serve notice on federal judges
that their sacred duties must be
sacredly performed" Impeachment
proceedings were suggested as a
means to compel lax judges to em-
ploy in a proper manner the pena!
provisions of the prohibition enforce
ment act in dealing with persons con-
victed of violating the law.
The conference, in its discussions
evinced determination that the next
congress be made dry and kept
dry" Speakers expressed the fear
that "the power of the vets is not ell
tirely downed," and unless a major
ity is maintained in congress favor
able to rigid enforcement, the prohi
bition code may be changed.
Administrative officers, it was in
dicated, also will be brought within
the leagues program, several speak
ers asserting that in a great many in
stances these officers were not func-
tioning to the satisfaction of the
"drys." The proposal was made that
the league build fires under those
who betray the trust" of their ap-
pointment. The opinion was ex-
pressed that liquor interests might
seek to defeat the aim of the law by
obtaining the appointment of officials
who would wink at violations Of the
law.
Federal judges were accused Of
"coddling" mOonshiners and bootleg
gers. Many judges we're pictured as
too lenient and having permitted vio-
lators to escape punishment with
light fines. Speakers also told Of
what they described as amazing con-
ditions" in many localities. where
Saloons run almost openly and even
stranger has no difficulty in obtain
ing liquor"
Wayne B. Wheeler. general cOun-
sci for the league, made an address
in which he called upon "all persons
who believe in law enforcement" to
stand by the league in selecting only
dry candidates to congress. He said
it was a most ''inopportune time" to
encourage lawlessness. saying that
the country is facing "much defiance
of law"
"If the outlawed brewers can defy
the constitution of the United States, y
Mr. Wheeler said, then any other
group of citizens who do not like n
law can proceed to nullify it and the
government itself would be in jeop-
ardy. When law enforcement is gore
then all order is gone.
Now is the time for every 100
per cent American to insist upon fair
and honest enforcement OF the 18th
amendment and upon the election of
men who will not nullify the will Of
the people by making changes in the
Volstead act, the very nature of
which would be an overriding Of the
constitution"

FARM BUREAU PLANS
COW TESTING ASSN.
FAIR FOR BOYS AND GIRLS
CLCBS-BERRY DEMON.
TRATION.

County agent Stookey is very much
interested in working up a COW test
ing association in this county. and to
that end has provided for a tester for
period of one year. il 500 or more
cows can be signed up for testing
purposes. The expense will be only
$3.50 per cow for one year. Already
more than $50 cows have been signed
up.
The purpose of the association is
to enable farmers and dairymen to
ascertain whether their cows are star
boarders, or producers; whether II
pays to keep them or not. The tester
will weigh the milk and then test
it for butterfat. etc. He will als)
weigh up the feed and ascertain the
cost, SO as to keep an accurate bal
ance Of the cost of boarding the cow
and the return she gives to her
owner
An opportunity will thus be given
every dairymen who signs up his
cows for learning what others in the
county are getting their methods, II
they are getting better results than
he is; for once each month the tester
will visit each herd and test them. as
we'll as give the owner the benAit Of
all the association is doing. Thurston
County needs such an association, and
Mr.. Stookey Is very anxious that one
shall be formed here
Stumping powder purchased for the
farmers by the county agent some
time ago has proven a very big saving
to all who. will order through his
Office. Not only was an excellent
bargain made by buying by the car
load. but the price has advanced at
least 1925 per hundred since the
purchase was made.
County club leader Dunham is
planning a county fair in Olympia for
week of teachers institute. The dates
will be Thursday and Friday October
7th and 8th. County superintendent,
Mrs. Brown has kindly made provis-.
ion for the fair as part Of the pro-;
gram of institute work. Arrange
ments have been made to send the
winners of the club contests at the
Southwest Washington Fair to the
State Fair at Yakima.
County agent and Prof. J. l.. Stahl
will give a berry demonstration at
Lansdale farm east Of Olympia this
afternoon at $3.50 o'clock Pf0fesscr
Stahl is horticulturist at the Western
| Washington Experiment Station, and
Is recognized as one of the foremost,
authority on berries in this western
country. All who are interested in
berry culture should be present. The
people of Olympia could do nothing
better than to study the berry indus
try, for 1t offers the greatest returns
to this section Of the state. The
canning industry which is dependent
upon the berries and other products
should be encouraged by growing
crops which will engage the Gamer
les the greater part of the year.
