DOAN DEPLORES LAX
enforcement POLICY

Lack of uniformity in laws in Amer
lean, failure of the melting pot to per-
form its function, and a letting down
in law enforcement call along the
line" were characterized by w. S.
Doan of Indianapolis as the reasons
for the failure to enforce the Volstead
act, in a speech made at the start of a
round table discussion of the Friends
general conference Tuesday.
I'VE have let down in law enforce
ment all along the line and as a result
the Volstead act has appeared the
most vulnerable for attack" he de-
clared. 1--WE are the most lawless peo-
pie on the face Of the earth. Why?
For one thing, we lack a uniformity
in laws which engenders general dis
respect for the law and works against
the proposition of law enforcement 1t
lowers the high ideal of law we have
had"
Failure of the people to realize that
the Volstead act is right was also char
acterized by the speaker as one of the
forces working against enforcement.
Suppose 20 per cent of the people be-
lieved in their hearts that it was all
right to steal" he said. at would be
a difficult thing to enforce that law
We have large foreign population
that believes this act is an encroach.
ment on their personal liberty. They
have not yet grasped the American
ideal. and the distinction between
liberty and license. In other words
the melting pot has failed to perform
its function"

First Marriage License
Bars Bells Second Time

CRYSTAL SPRINGS, Miss, Aug. %.
Willie Gardner has appealed to the
courts to have annulled a marriage
license which records him as married
to a young woman who left him wait
ing at the church, the license now
acting as a barrier to wedding to
a new fiancee which he says would be
gone through with. When Gardners
first intended bride baked at the
ceremony, he prevailed on the preach
er to certify the license and forward
it to the circuit court for registration,
assuring he could sway the young wo-
mans decision. A few weeks later
found him recovered from the blow
and with another marriage planned.
His application for a second license
was refused on the ground thai the
record showed he already W a
married.

BY MARK SULLIVAN

WASHINGTON, Aug. 29.-The up
permost question about the soldiers
bonus now is just what kind of veto
President Harding will give it. That
he will veto it is by this time univer-
sally accepted, although the pro-bonus
leaders apparently intend to go on the
assumption that he will not.
1t is said to be their intention to
make an impressive countrywide dem
onstration with the purpose of bring
ing pressure on Mr. Harding at the
moment when he has the bill in his
hands
The plan is said to include a sys-
tematic deluge of kilograms on the
White House from Republican COVER
nors, Republican state chairmen, dis
tant members of the Republican ma
tional committee and other local Re-
publican leaders. This is expected to
have the result of embarrassing
President Harding and the Republican
party, even though it will be without
effect in preventing the veto.
Interest kindes.
Discussion as to just forms the veto
could take engages the interest of
many who are in close contact whit
the fight. There are three possible
forms. One would be a strong, ring
ing veto, which would go to the heart
of the principle of the bonus propos-
ais, those who want the president to
make this kind of a veto say it would
have two effects.
One would be to end the whole bon
US discussion and to put it out of con-
sideration permanently, or at least un-
til the end of the Harding administra-
ton.
The other advantageous effect point
/ ed out by those who favor this kind OF
| a veto would be the giving to the

Two Sides of a Turnover

The alert business man dealing with
present-day conditions knows that the
big word today is Turnover Wheth-
er he be a merchant, manufacturer,
jobber, or banker, he sees that one
thing with a clear vision,, unbiased by
the limits of his own business. 1t is in
the air, and on the tip of every tongue.
And yet many of thenl-entirely too
many-are thinking on only one side
of Turnover. They think of it as
meaning rapid selling-putting money
in and getting it out quickly and at a
profit They realize that they must
put greatly increased efforts back of
all their plans for selling and diStri-
button. a...;
The other half of Turnover is the con-
sumner. All selling plans and efforts
fail if the consumer doesn't want to
buy. His desire for the product must
be created. He must meet the seller
half way. He must be in a mood to
buy before the salesman meets him
across the counter.
That is the function of Advertising
to create consumer demand and con-
