SALVATION ARMY
NEEDS $4,000

(Continued from First PCge)
will agree that the Salvation Army
Is an asset 20 any city. At the pres
ent time there IS less than 81 IN the
treasury. The budget calls for about
s14.7Oo for the next twelve months.
They earn about $4,000 per year.
The old tambourine method OF col
lectlng pennies has been abolished,
owing 10 the increased volume OF
work that has fallen on the army
The day has come when II IS necee-
sary TO raise S1O.0OO-if the Saliva
ton Army Is TO continue 10 function
in Wilmington. The advisory board
after careful consideration, has de-
cided that the way 10 collect this
money IS by direct appeal through
the newspapers rather than by th'
usual drive or campaign method.
THE committee has audited the
statements OF the Ensign OF the
Army. II knows 20 certainty the
financial affairs Of the Army. and II
has decided 10 raise the $4,000
necessary by Christmas. Mayor
Harvey believes this is the thing 10
do. He knows what a magnificent
work the Salvation Army has done
and Is doing among the poorer
classes. The ministers OF the city
know. The advisory committee
knows. The A. f. F. boys also know
and. incidentally. these same boys
know far better than anyone else
what the Salvation Army did on the
bloody battlefelds OF France only a
short time ago-and many OF these
same boys are frank in stating that
the Salvation Army did more for
them than any other organization In
the field. The Salvation Army helps
the poor and needy. The efficiency
OF the organization has never been
questioned. II knows neither creed,
race nor religion. II succors the sick
and afflicted and brings good cheer
to the home where exist sickness
and distress. In peace and In war II
has been a tremendous influence for
good It's emissaries reach out
where others do not reach, and go
into the highways and byways where
other organizations do not enter.
within a few days We Will cele-
brate Christmas Day. In millions OF
homes throughout the land there
will be glad hearts and happy chill
dren-and the real Christmas spirit
and It IS right that this should be
30. But in thousands OF other homes
maybe close by your own-there
will be sickness, poverty and want.
Il is the Salvation Army, probably
more than any other organization.
hat seeks out these homes and
brings some measure OF comfort and
cheer to those who are less fortunate !
han most OF us-but probably none I
he less deserving. Isn't your duty /
% help such a cause as this and by |
yivig what you can afford will you

pleasures which Christmas brings TO |

Act Before Harding
DENNEY URGES
ENFORCEMENT WEEK

WASHINGTON, D. c.. Dec. Ia
President Harding. in comforting
, yesterday with the Governors OF
fourteen States, on the danger 10
! American institutions through lack
OF respect for law engendered by the
| failure 10 make the Volstsad act eff
I fective, asked each Governor for a
frank statement OF conditions in his
State, as well as his own views
With one exception. the Governors
stood by the Volstead act and ad-
vocsted a campaign TO improve the
situation under the law as II exists.
Governor Richie OF Maryland at
tackled the Nolstead law as unsn-
forceable and unendurabie and sug-
gested that it he sorapped and the
entire problem turned back 20 the
States for settlement as the only
means 10 a solution.
Several Governors pictured condi-
tons as very bad. but a majority said
conditions in their States were good
and that enforcement was progress
ing.
No outstanding program or sug-
gestion OF policy by which full en-
forcement could be attained was ad-
vanced. but several Governors sug-
gested more severe sentences and a
larger enforcement organization.
Several laid great emphasis upon
the statement that there was a
growing liberal sentiment in their
States
The conference. an Informal one
at a White House lucnheon, was
regarded as a forerunner for for /
NAL meeting for the same purpose 4
which the President contemplated
calling in January. That he has I
not fully determined To do so was !
indicated when he told his guests .
today he might call such con- I
ference.
The great majority OF people OF
Maryland believe that the Volstead
law simply cannot be enforced there. D
Our people are imbued with a fine
traditional respect for law and the
order and we were effec-
lively solving the temperance oues- .
ton by local option in the various
units OF the State. Under that meth
Cd when the people OF a community
wanted prohibition they actually
got IL.
The Volstead law changed all T
this. Our people in the main regard .
Il as an unnecessary and drastic Fed 3
eral infringements Of their state and .
personal rights. The lack Of respect .
for law and actual lawlessness which .
has resulted are deplorable. The .
only remedy ] see is TO recognize .
that the Volstead law is destructive
OF the rights OF the States and 20
turn the whole question 10 the States .
so that each may settle 10 in accord +
ance with the will Of its own people. ,
