Il have been anxious to write you a
line with reference TO the Dramatic
Debate which ! had the privilege OF
hearing at Milwaukee and SO greatly
enjoyed. AS you know we have since
put team on in Iowa, and have stud
led the debate somewhat. The power
and scope OF its message grows upon
me, it is psychologically correct and
the things most vital in the temper
ance fight just. now, are covered in
fine shape. | regard it as one of the
most helpful and convincing messages
OF the hour. j In addition to all that, it
is easily dated, and in Iowa is making
return engagements already. That's
something to the man who wrestles
with the dates. Paul II. McBeth.
