MASSES CHOICE.
AYERS MASON
Candidate for Congress Says
Dry Amendment Was Not
Slipped Over.

National prohibition Is not g question
Of personal liberty or the rights of the
individual. but it IS a question of Amer
tcanism versus foreign influences, Wood
burn Mason, candidate for the Demo-
cratic nomination for representative In
Congress from this district, said at a
meeting Of the Jefferson Club Of Wayne
Township at the Carr Auto Sales Com
pany, 5l36 East Washington street.
Wednesday night.
The meeting was one Of the largest
Democratic meetings of the primary cam
paign and drew a crowd which packed
the place TO capacity. Frank T. Brown
presided and introduced the candidates,
who were out in full force
THE fact that thirty-four States
adopted state wide prohibition laws be-
fore the ratification of the Eighteenth
Amendment IN conclusive proof that ma
tional prohibition was not folsted on the
nation without the consent Of the people"
AIR Mason said 1T is asserted by
propagandists FOR the repeal of the Vol
stead Act that this is a question of per-
sonal liberty. This Is not the case. Look

realized In speaking in IryinCton he was
in the camp Of the enemy. He said: Il
do not feel /have TO apologize for adj
vocnting tho repeal Of an act vetoed by
Woodrow Wilson and passed over his
head by n Republican Congress"
Mr.. Vurk went on to say he did not
advocate the return Of the saloon, but
that /the present prohibition had proved
to /be unenforcable and many temperance
advocates were beginning to realize the
1aw had been carried too far and some
middle ground should be taken.
william d. Headrick made the prin-
cipai speech Of the evening. He criticized
State, county and national Republican
administrations severely and paid 81
tribute to Woodrow Wilson.
1t was noticeable throughout the eve
ming that the mention of the name of the
former president Invariably was received
with great applause. Attacks on the
local Republican county administration
and criticism of the Indiana public SER

BRITISH MINERS
PLEDGE AID TO
i. S. STRIKERS
Will Walk Out, They Declare,
if Their Labor Weakens
American Cause.

Importation Of British coal to break
the strike of 100000 American miners
would call forth an appeal for sym
pathetic walkout in Britain, according
to an official announcement from United
Mine Worker headquarters here today.
The announcement was made following
receipt OF a cablegram from the inter-
national executive committee Of miners
meeting now in Rome, which declared
any suggestion from the United Mine
Workers will receive most sympathetic
consideration
The cablegram. signed by Frank
Hodges, secretary of the committee and
also secretary of the British miners fed
Grafton. follows:
Executive committee of international
miners meeting at Rome send you
brotherly greetings and wish American
mine workers victory in present struggle.
Are recommending European miners re-
frain from working overtime while fight
is proceeding.
Amy further suggestions from your
committee will receive most sympathetic
consideration
The csblegram was received by William
E. Green, secretary treasurer of the
United Mine Workers, and followed
threats to import European coal and
break the back bone of the miners union.
This cablegram Is interpreted to mean
the miners Of France, Germany, Belgium.
Italy and Great Britain are alive to the
situation in the United States and are
willing, II called upon, to render such
support to the United Mine Workers OF
America as they may be able to give"
Green said.
"If we find that British coal is taking
the place Of American coal, We may call
the miners OF Britain to refuse to sup
ply those markets"

OFFRETGHTC CUT
Senator New Sees Better
Business on His Trip
Home.
PARTY IN POWER CAUSE

Senator Harry s. New a home here
today issued d statement concerning re
duction of freight rates which he said
his opponent for the Republic ID nOmina-
ton has been saying would be necessary
before prosperity could he restored,
Senator New said he had seen much evil
dence of better business conditions in
the Calumet district.
The statement says in part:
L notice that my opponent continues
to emphasize the fact that the supreme
duty of the statesman of the hour is to
aid in the restoration of national pros
perity. He continues in his effort to
make it appear that his personal pres
enee IN the United States Senate is very
necessary before that end can be accom-
pIished.
Now I have no desire to enter into a
controversy on this subject. However, l
refer the Republican voters of the State
and the people generally to a Washing
ton press dispatch Of April %, which
reads in part:
An extensive reduction IN railroad
rates will be announced by the inter
state commerce commission within the
next ten days, it was learned from off,
cial sources here today. The decision
viii result from the hearings the COM
mission recently held on the question Of
reducing rates. It IS understood the
commission is reaching agreements daily
on various rate reductions which will
comprise the decision. PreSi-
Harding has been strongly urging the
commission to expedite It's decision. He
feels that a rate reduction is imperative
before a real industrial and econmic re-
covery can come In full force"
Isn't it entirely proper to suppose,
from this that somebody else already IS
steering the boat? Wouldn't it appear
that that boat is in the right direction
and is not headed for the rocks?
Il would like to cite further evidence Of
the fact that business is on the upgrade
and that indications are that the improve
ment will continue. 1 returned this
morning from the Calumet district of
Indiana, where I have been since Tues
day noon. Everywhere 1 saw the IN
miStakable signs Of a revival Of industry.
1t is only fair to assume that the men
who have been shaping the policies of
the Government for the last year have
had much to do with bringing about
this condition. Because of this l believe
that the people Of Indiana, as we'll as
the people of the Nation, have the full
est confidence in the administration of
Warren G. Harding, that great Repub
lican President whose name Will go down
into history al one of the greatest Presi
dents, who is definitely redeeming the
pledges Of the Republican party that
were so overwhelmingly approved in
1920"
