CHAMBER MAKES PLANS
 TO MEET TIE PRESIDENT

President Whittlesey today presided over a full house at the Chamber of Commerce luncheon, the members be- ing on hand to conclude final arrange ments for meeting the Presidential party.
 A discussion ensued over roads and trails, it being the opinion of the members that larger appropriations should be provided by congress. Capt. o. A. Johansen spoke briefly on the question, but asserted that the real road to Alaska was by steamship and the waters should be charted and light houses secured. He said that Alaskan waters were the most neg lected waters in the world, and de- clared that the freight rates would be lowered more quickly by providing safer lanes of travel, and the terri tory would be more greatly benefited than by land roads which could come later.
 The Chamber asked citizens to fur nish cars to the members of the dec orating committee, who desire to go to pick flowers to decorate the l. o. o. F. hall on Thursday afternoon.
 Mir. P. c. McMullen reported briefly on the Civic Committee meeting last night

SLIGHT HOPE HELD 0UT FOR VETS IN 1928
 ELECTIONS
EXPECTED POLITICAL TIDE OF WITNESS FAILS TO APPEAR
 AND DRYS NOT ALARMED

WASHINGTON, July 10.-The tide of "wetness" which many persons be- lieved would sweep the country when Governor Al Smith of New York sign ed the dry law repeal has failed to materialize, and even Gov Smith has found that his political aspirations are effectually killed for the future
 An attempt to rush dry law thru the Illinois legislature came to grief, and a similar attempt to make Wis consin wet was met with a signif- cant defeat.
 Gov. Smith has not found any viO lent movement to make him the wet candidate for president, which he had hopes would ensue, but on the con- trary leaders of the party are openly announcing that his candidacy for take Even so damp an enthusiast as Tom Taggert has issued a statement saying that Indiana is for Senator S. L. Ralston, dry advocate.
 Indiana has been hospitable to the Governor of New York but it has let him know that it did not approve of his affrOnt to the party and that it will refuse to join in electing a wet president.
 Therefore the freely made predic- tions of the last few days that the next campaign will be fought on a wet and dry basis leaving other national and international issues in the dis card are not based upon konwledge of true conditions in the country at large. Democratic and republican leaders assert that the country is dry and that it will stay dry. It is ac- knowledged that any attempt to fool with the 18th amendment will be met with defeat in the next congress.
 It is conceded that the republican party will be bone dry in the next campaign. President Harding and various leaders have said so. The c. o. P. will stand on a platform for pro hibition enforcement to the hilt. The democrats can do no less than fol- low suit. Disappointing as it may be to the vets, even the most casual survey shows that the democrats will repulse all wet onslaughts and will come before the people as dry as the republicans.
 The drys are naturally not worry ing over their position, using both sides to strengthen their position, and waging a strong campaign against any congressman believed to be for modifying the Volstead act.
