mo MODIFICATION
DRY ACT TALKED
GOVERNORS, AT WASHINGTON
CONFERENCE, FOR MORE
PENALTIES.

Washington-PrObl of prOhlb1
ton enforcement were discussed IN
formally today at White House con
ference between President Harding
the federal department chiefs directly
interested in the subject and govern
ors Of ID states.
There was no statement from the
White House as to the result OF the
meeting, but it was indicated that tne
discussion revolved almost entirely
upon the question Of how the several
states could best cooperate with the
federal government in executing the
terms of the prohibition amendment
1t was indicated that another meet
ing of the state executives might be
called early in the coming year, at
which time the subject would be can
vassed more thoroughly.
At the White House luncheon, dur
ing the course of which the views
of the guests were sought on oroh1-
bition, were in addition to the presl-
dent: Vice President Coolidge, At
torney General Daugherty, Secretary
Mellon, Prohibition Commissioner
Haynes, Governors Cox, of Massach-
usetts; Ritchie, Maryland, Trinkle,
Virginia; Hartness, Vermont; McCray,
Indiana; Kilby, Alabama; Hyde, Mis-
souri,; -Preus, Minnesota; Olcott, ore
gon; Allen, Kansas; Morgan, West
Virginia; McKelvie, Nebraska; DAVIS,
Idaho, and Campbell, Arizona.
"In many cases." Commissioner
Haynes declared after the meeting,
" the reports Of the governors were OF
an encouraging nature. Numerous In
stances of lack of cooperation were
pointed out; many instances OF the
inadequacy of federal forces were
suggested"
According to some of those who
there was no suggesCion
raised during the three hour confer
ence which indicated belief that the
situation might be helped by loosen
ing the present stringent enforcement
statute. To the contrary, 1t was sald,
the opinion seemed to favor more
severe fines and prison terms on con-
viction of violation as tending to as
sist the enforcement officials in their
work.
It was understood that the presl-
dent outlined the troubles Of the fed
eral government in directing its en-

perfect harmony with state officials.
He repeated the statement he recently
made to congress and suggested that
# the present condition, described IN
MS message as savoring of nation
wide scandal" is to be remedied, the
state and federal governments must
agree ON a definite and coordinate
policy.
Formal notification has been given
n note presented to the state de-
partment by Sir Auckland Geddes,
British ambassador, and made public
oday that the Canadian government
las issued instructions by which 1t Is
loped to restrict smuggling OF liquor
nto the United States through the
fraudulent transfer Of American YES
els to British registry.

the assets Of their institu-
tions, and have thus gone through the
period of deflatfon without any serious
trouble and have been able to finance
their customers on sound and con-
servative basis. He expressed himself'I
as well pleased with conditions and
with the prospect for a return to a
sound prosperity.
The following officers were re-
elected for the ensuing year: J. A.
Harsh, Latah County State bank,
Deary, president; H. Melgard, president
