the Anti-Saloon League Of America
who came here from Washington yes
tcrday 10 speak at Scott NJ. Il. Church,
Seventh and Spruce streets.
THE law enforcement convention
which just closed its session at Wash
ington, was the most encouraging evil
dence of the sentiment FOR law and
order made manifest in a decade" he
continued. Every department Of the
government was represented. The key
note OF every speech of these officials
was, that law must be enforced and
that good citizens must obey the law
X the government is to stand.
"The announcement OF the attorney
general Of the United States, to the
delegates, that he was going TO aslsxhe
attorney general Of. each state, TO call
a conference OF the prosecuting ofll>
GERS. and work out n cooperative p}fn
to suppress lawlcssness, means much.
OF course there is hard fighting ahead.
but the same force that won national
prohibition with tho odds all against
IL, will hold 1t and help to enforce il.
IL the people do not go to sleep and
remember that eternal vigilance is the
price OF liberty"
