Drys Demand State Plank

William H. Anderson, superintend-
ent of the Anti-Saloon League, in a let
ter to the members of the Republican
State Committee, yesterday asked that
the Republicans, when they meet at
Saratoga in convention July 27, declare
for the passage of state enforcement
measure identical with that (Which
was passed by Republican Congress
and tacitly approved by the national
convention"
"The Republican convention of New
York State" wrote Anderson, "must
either stand with the Republican Con-
gress, which took the side of the moral
element, or the so-called Republican
Legislature which betrayed the moral
element to Tammany,"

BERLIN, July lathe result Of the
plebiscite in east and west Prussia is
exciting greatest .exultation here as
it exceeds the most sanguine expecta-
tions. The reverses the Poles have re-
ceived at the hands Of the Bolsheviki
are believed to have Influenced the
plebisclte results favorably for Ger
many.
1t was reported in the final days of
the campaign that entire Polish or
ganizations had announced their inten-
tion OF voting for Germany, and it is
now figured that at least 80 per cent Of
the Poles did

cite result as an illustration Of what

voted for Poland, wherefore. it is
argued, that if the ent1re Polish corri-

The result of the plebiscite, together
with the Polish breakdown on the
military front, is expected to have a

Czecho-Slovakia, ally and friend of

not afford them. We are in no mood
for gratuitous adventures. We can
find neither men nor money for gran
diose enterprises"
Those statements give a clew to
British opinion. They are not the
views of partisans of Germany. They
are the guiding principles upon which
the British policy is based Under the
treaty the British have the right to
impose crushing terms upon Germany
but If they neglect to do so they
should not be charged with pro- Ger
manism.
What the Britons desire is a Europe
which Will contain the fewest ele-
ments making for unrest and war
Further proof Of England's increased
interest in domestic affairs can be
found in the recent Parliamentary di-
VISIONS, wherein the governments op-
position has grown. Although Lloyd
George has escaped parliamentarv de-.
teat he had a narrow squeak this week
following the debate on the Dyer case
which really is an infinitely more i'm
portant question than the fate of the
BRUSH general who ordered his troops
to fire on crowd in India.
Had the Liberal members voted with
the Conservatives the government
would have suffered a heavy reverse
which might easily have meant a gem
eral election.
The British policy in India is on
trial and the House of Commons has
decided to support Montague, who
stands for liberal treatment Of the
Indians. Another vote which indicate d
that the Premier no longer enjoys the
full support of the Conservatives. his
erstwhile political enemies, came dur
ing the excess profits tax debate. The
business interests consider 60 per cent
unbearable two years after the armis-
tlce and they voiced strenuous oppo-
sltlon through their Parliamentar
representatives. However, the comb
nation was sufficiently large to defeat
the opposition.
Coalition Cabinet Shaky
The coalition government is becom-
ing decidedly shaky, but there still is
no leader able to wrest the Premier
ship from Lloyd George. There is
powerful opposition in the House of
Commons, but it cannot combine on
any issue sufficient number of votes
to overthrow the government.
English labor's stand on the Irish
question is proving decidedly embar-
RAISING to the government, but that il
Wi! result in any material change in
policy can hardly be expected. The
TACT that the Irish Office feels com
PEELED to defend its position brings con.
siderable satisfaction to the Sim Fein
who really are disappointed by the
failure to swing the Republicans anc
Democrats of America into line.
Compared with the situation a yea,
ago, the British have every reason t.
regard conditions at home with ex.
treme satisfaction. Industrially, eco
nomically and financially Britain is in.
hnltely stronger. 1t is reflected in the
country's attitude toward the confer,

LONDON, July i7.-There is an indi-
cation of a change in popular feeling,
after the failure of the critical stu
ation at Spa to arouse public interest.
Had any German fiouted the Allies
a year ago as did Hugo SHINES this
week, the whole Of Britain would have
demanded his immediate arrest and
would have insisted upon strong mill
tary measures. But to-day the Allied
threats to seize the Ruhr district have
about aa--muck effect on the British as
If they learned suddenly that America
intended sending q division into Mex
leo, The WORD crisis" no longer ter
rifles the British. They have heard
"crisis at Versailles "crisis at San
Remo," "crisis at Hythe" and "crisis
ut Boulogne" until now they have come
to discount the word.
Words and phrases which served to
move the people to righteous anger
twelve months back have lost their
potency. Lloyd George no longer
thrills the Parliament or the people
as he did two or three years ago. The
war spirit is gone from England.
The race for the Americas Cup, the
selection of team to. represent Eng
land in the cricket matches with Aus
tralia, the increased cost in railway
fares, the excess profits tax and the
possibility of trade with Russia are
absorbing questions before the British
now. Something of the detachment
with which America regards Europe has
come to England so far as Continental
affairs are concerned. The profound
