SEES IN COOLIDGE
ENFORCEMENT FRIEND
Head of Wisconsin Anti-SaloOn
League Declares President Will
Follow Harding.
by United Press)

Milwaukee, Wis. - Wisconsin drys
feel sure that they have tried and
true friends in President Calvin Cool
idge.
In statement given out here to-
day D. L. Mcbride, superintendent of
the Wisconsin Anti-Saloon League,
points out how "dry" President Cool
idge has been in the past. He feels
that as president he will continue to
be- staunch supporter of the Vol
stead act. The statement also points
out that President Coolidge's/ first
statement was to uphold the policies
of the late President Harding, who
was an avowed "dry."
when informed of the presidents
death Mr.. Coolidge's first utterance
was that he. would endeavor to follow
the policies laid down by Mr.. Hard
ing. 1t will be remembered that Pres
ident Coolidge was not swayed from
the path of duty when governor of
Massachusetts,, and that he is devoted
to the constitution, law and order"
The following passage from Cool
idge's message to the Legislature in
which he vetoed bill permitting 2.75
beer is quoted:
There is little satisfaction in at
tempting to deceive ourselves. There
is, grave danger in attempting to de-
ceive the people.
"The proper authorities have declar-
ed the eighteenth amendment to the
Ukpited States constitution adopted.
Under it congress has passed legis-
!lation.
when I took office l gave an oath
to support the constitution of the
United States. That constitution and
the laws of congress are declared to
be the supreme law of the land. My
oath was not to take a chance on the
constitution. 1t was to support it.
"Fhe authority of the law is ques-
toned in these days all too much.
The binding obligation of obedience
against personal desire is denied in
many quarters. If these doctrines
prevail, all organized government, all
liberty, all security are at an end.
Force alone will prevail. Can those
entrusted with the gravest authority
set any example save that of the
sternest obedience to law.
The statement concludes by saying:
''In view of his present promise and
his past performance, the drys feel
confident there will be no slackening
under President Coolidge"

Is FOUND GUILTY

Chris Radatz, following a hearing
at the city hall Tuesday afternoon be-
fore the city manager, was found gull
ty of conduct unbecoming an officer
or gentleman and of INSTRUMENTATION
on the evening of August 8. His dis
missal from the police force by City
Manager Osborn followed.

quest of the police chief who insisted

On the night of August 8, Officer
Chris Radatz was on duty at the car
nival grounds directing traffic near
Fremont and Selma avenues. Lieu
tenant Rock, assisting in policing the
carnival grounds, sought to give the
patrolman some instructions about di-
recting the traffic, and was met by a
TRADE of abuse, according to the al

and in responding to his superior Of
ficer on the force, the officer was al
legged to have used language that was
decidedly unbecoming.

in his own behalf denied the charges.
He insisted that the words he used
had been misunderstood, and named
other and more affectionate epithets
which he said he had uttered instead.
Chris Radatz has been with the po-
lice force for the past five years, dur
ling which time he has done duty as
patrolman in various sections of the
city.

breaking county in the State.
THE infant morality rate in Gar
rett county is twice as high as it
should be. Many communicable d.
seases are not now under control.
Many children are going into the
school periods with defects which
handicap them in their school work.
Many cases of tuberculosis, cancer
and other serious diseases are now
passing unnOticed. In all these fields
the public health nurse would be Of
great benefit.
Long experience has demonstrated
that the most effective agent in Sc
curing better health conditions in
county is the Public Health Nurse,
who lives in the county and deyOtes
her time in going from home to
home and comforting with the mother
in a tactful way upon the health of
her family. This nurse can not do
justice to her great cause or to her
self if she attempts to minister to
a community Of larger than 10000
people. 1t is really, therefore neces-
sary in q county the size Of Garrett
TO have two public health nurses.
Each nurse should be assigned to a
special part Of the county. In ad-
dition to her work in the families she
can, in due course of time, organize
clinics where groups of mothers can
be instructed ana where babies and
older children can be brought under
the advice of physicians. In this way,
many cases of beginning illness,
which are not then receiving medical
care, can be brought to the doctors in
time, where they can be cured
"Of course it would be bad prac-
tice for the State to place these
nurses in any community without
the interest and cooperation of the
community itself. If the community
does not see the need of this kind
of work and is not willing to actively
help, it would be unwise for the State
to insist upon it. l know, however,
from the contact have had with
leading citizens in Garrett county
that there is quite a widespread in
terest in this important public health
work"
