I'VE have no doubt that the rail-

DRY ADVOCATES
PLAN FOR future
Directors of Anti.SaIoon
League Meet to Map
Out Program.

The complete program of activities
OF the Anti-Saloon League of America
for the ensuing year will be arranged
by the board OF directors of the
organization, now in session at the
Raleigh Hotel. Deliberations Of the
body will continue throughout today
and tomorrow.
The two most important PROPOSE
tions to be discussed by the board,
one of which, it Is understood, will
be adopted today, are q worldwide
prohibition campaign and a cam
officials were of the opinion that the
worldwide campaign is most likely
to be adopted by the directors and
placed before the convention, which
will be held here Immediately follow
ing adjournment of the board.
Ernest Darlington, general manager
of lAlblishing interests, who advo-
Gates this program, insists that law
enforcement in America may best be
safeguarded by prohibition in other
countries.
OMcers to Be Chosen Tomorrow.
Election of league officials is sched-
uled for tomorrow's meeting Of the
directors.
Convention Opens Tonight.
The opening session of the conven-
ton will be held tomorrow night at
the First Congregational Church.
Classifying bootleggers and others
who violate or sanction the violation
of the prohibition laws in the same
category as murderers, firebugs and
burglars, Federal Prohibition Com
missioner Roy A. Haynes addressed
large meeting of the organization at
the Church of the Covenant yester-
day.
The official launched broadside after
broadside at the foes of prohibition
and branded as advocates of anarchy
both the sellers Of liquor and those
in higher stations who laugh at the
eighteenth amendment.
Citizen Guardian of the Law.
1T is not enough to obey the law"
the commissioner said, lit is the duty
of every law-abiding citizen of the
United States to see that the law is
enforced. The good citizen is the
natural guardian of the law. Is he
going to stand-like a spineless man
and listen to the chant of anarchy
from the soap-box orator without
making an effort to prevent the cir
culation and utterance of remarks
tending to throw discredit upon or
ganized government and society?
THE real trouble today with the
enforcement of the liquor laws Is the
lack of respect. not only for those
laws, but for others. Our greatest
peril is the loss of the sanctity and
majesty of law.

Reiterating his recommendation
that Congress Immediately repeal all
outstanding continuous appropriations
and revolving funds" Gen. Dawes
says the method of appropriating
money heretofore followed has re-
which it is almost impossible for
either the executive. Congress, or the
Secretary Of the Treasury to have be-
fore them a true picture of the fiscal
condition of the government at any
particular time"
One Question Involved.
The whole habit of making con-
tinuous appropriations to which the
the past" he adds, ''is only an en-
cOuragement to a lack of scrutiny OF
public work by the head of the de-
partment under which it is carried on
and an encouragement to shiftless-
ness and carelessness on the part of
the subordinates more directly con-
cerned in 1t. This system of prepar-
tion of the executive. Of Congress

ton of the money actually to be spent

commitments. projects and enterprises
considered. This will enable Congress.
with more intelligence, to determine
at any time both the necessity for re-
trenchment and the ability of the gov
ernment to engage in additional prof.
ects to be initiated by Congress out
side of the budgetary provisions"
Likening the federal government to
business corporation, Gen. Dawes
points to these faults" which he
says existed.

gave practically no attention to it's
ordinary routine business.
The administrative vice presidents
(members Of the cabinet were al
ments as If each separate department
was an Independent authority in all
matters Of routine business.
: Because of a lack of any outlined
business plan no system existed for
making purchases or in selling ma
terial along business lines under a
unified policy.
No balance sheet Of the corporation
as a whole was ever prepared.
The treasurer kept no accurate ac-
count of the contingent obligations OF
the various federal departments, thus
resulting in money being drawn from
