In tho Fight TO STAY

I EADERS OF the Anti-Suloon League OF
IL America have become convinced that
their work at home was not finished when
the eighteenth amendment to~the Constitu-
ton became operative and when they sue
ceeded in placing upon the statute books the
Nolstcad enforcement act, which lays down
rigid and drastic regulations in making eff
fective the bone-dryness to which the league
has dedicated all its energies
these leaders profess to forcsec a cam
paign in the immediate future. not for the
repeal Of the amend ment but for liberal
notifications OF the enforcement legislation
They have announced that they must remain
in politics because the liquor interests re-
main. and that it will be necessary to fortify
The country against a propaganda that is
designed to emasculate the Eolstead Law.
That such a campaign as they claim to
foresee Will be undertaken seems certain
There l. a well-founded and widespread con-
yiction that Congress disregarded the spirit
as we'll as the letter OF the eighteenth amend
ment when it barred all beverages that cor
tain more than onc-half OF / per cen, of
alcohol This conviction doubtless will mani
fest itself when the time comes to elect a
new Congress and new President and If
the reaction against air-tight prohibition is
sufficiently strong, movement will gain vol
uine in the House and Senate for the repeal
or the amendment OF certain provisions az
the enforcement act
The first move will be made against sec
ton 2 OF the Eolstead Law, circumstances

Wilson's House Cleaning

HERE has been no more dramatic cir
L cumstance in the course OF the present
administration than tho removal by the
President OF Robert Lansing, his Secretary
OF State, and ,hcre bavo been few historic
parallels. if any. The disagreement between
President Lincoln aud his Postmaster-Ceu
era, Montgomery blair. was noteworthy, IS
was the arrangement OF Presiden, Harrison
and Secretary Blaine, which resulted in n
demand for Mr.. Blaines resignation. Blu,
the records OF government disclose no stu
alton involving friction in high official circles
quite comparable to that In the relationship
between the President and Mr.. Lansing.
Whether Mr.. Wilson was justified in dis
missing his Secretary OF State is y matter
of moro or less partisan debate. This is in
cvitable. No President ought 10 fec, called
upon 10 maintain in Office Cabinet sub
ordinate, whose absolute fidelity was in qnes-
ton, or who was not prepared when called
upon TO accept the judgment Of his superior
officer. The actual responsibility, for the
executive administration OF the government
is upon the President. not upon any OF all
the members Of the Cabinet. and while no
chief executive should insist that his ad-
viscrs sink their whole personality con
ceal their own convictions he has right
10 insist that they do not become too indie
pendent in their actions.
Unfortunately for the President, he low
cred his guard when he based his primary
complaint against Mr.. Lansing on the gen
eral proposition that the secretary had
usurped presidential functions in calling in
formal conferences of the Cabinet during Mr.
WILSON'S illness. adding that he. the Presi-
dent. had Just been made acquainted with
the fact that such meetings had been held
This contention is little far-retched. In
the first place, Mr.. Lansing will not be held
entity by the country Of usurpation when his
only ofense was an occasional call upon his
colleagues to meet with him in tho Cabinet
room Of the White House. Moreover. it does
not seem believable that Mr.. Wilson was
kept in ignorance OF these meetings all these
months. II is far more reasonable to sup
pose that he knew all about them and was
kept fully informed Of all that had taken
place.
The President is on much frmer ground in
his complaint that Mr. Lansing had not been
as loyal as he had right to expect; the sec
Rotary had insisted upon acting in an indie
pendent manner upon many important adj
minisrntion policies, and for more than
year the relationship which ought to have
existed between Il President and the Premier
OF his Cabinet had not existed.
