REPORT OF THE SOCIAL SERVICE
DEPARTMENT PRESBYTERY OF CHICAGO
Urge Registration Candidates on November

conscientious efficiency in the public
service,
The Office OF president OF the Board
OF County Commissioners is the fourth
or fifth most powerful Office in the
state OF Illinois. The policy of the
state attorney and sheriff's office can
be largely determined by it, as it holds
the power over their appropriations.
1t administers the affairs of all the
public institutions in Cook county, in
GLIDING the county Jail the shocking
conditions of which are now under
public Investigations. 1t appropriates
S23.000,000 annually. 1t can control
the roadhouses. hrs. and resorts out
side the city, which have been often
a peril and disgrace to the people
OF Cook county. There are approxi-
mately 100000 voting members of the
Protestant churches OF Chicago. and
they compose a sufficient majority 10
elect any candidate the Christian pco-
pie OF the city want to represent them.
In fact in by-election years plurality
OF few thousand votes has been usu-
ally sufficient TO decide an election.
The issue. therefore lies entirely in
the power OF the Christian churches
of Chicago, and they will be justly
held responsible.
The executive committee OF the
Church Federation of Chicago has is
sued circular calling this "a supreme
crisis in Cook county Though they
refrain from naming either candidate,
they are unofhcially supporting the
candidacy of Mr. Peterson Ghe Anti
Saloon League heartily endorses Mr..
Peterson, and Is making stupendous
efforts to register and organize the
Christian voters of Cook county for
his election. They deserve every CO.
operation we can give them, irrespec-
tive OF our ordinary party affiliations.
The Social Service Department
would, therefore. respectfully recon-
mend
Frs. That our ministers, church
officers, and especially the leaders of,
Bible classes and Dung Peoples So
cietics cooperate with the Anti-Sa-
loon League. and urge upon all men
and women OF voting age within our
churches their solemn duty as Chris
tan citizens to register on October I
or II.
Second. To go to the polls on No
vember I and vote for those candi-
dates whom their conscience can ap-
prove Is men and women who will
promote tic moral and spiritual well
fare of the community regardless of
partisan politics.
All Of which is respectfully sub
,nittcd

Injunctions Effective
The paddock provision continues
to prove effective in closing places
where liquor is sold and heavy fines,
together with prison sentences, which
arc now being more generally i'm
posed are great deterrent to vio-
lators. Chain-gang sentences are inn
posed in some states.
Motor boat patrols on rivers, lakes
and inlets have been very successful
in coping with the smuggling situation
along borders. Canadian officials, to
curb the flow of Canadian liquor into
this country. have issued orders re-
curing the posting of bond guarantee
ing the delivery of liquor to its in
tended destination, the bond being re-
turned only on the receipt of land
ing certificate from the port TO which
the cases were destined

and cartoons, exposure of bootleg
methods and character of bootleg and
