RICHMOND OFFICIALS
TO Benefit BY BILLS

TOTTENVILLE, Mar. 10:-Staten
Island officeholders, particularly
those in the borough government,
will be greatly benefited if the bills
now before the assembly and senate
at Albany are passed and become a
law. Some of the most important
are the bills increasing the salary of
the borough president from $4,000
to $4,000 and that of increasing the
salary of the county judge of Rich
mond from $500 to $4,000 and fix
ing the salary of the county clerk
of Richmond at $500.
The bill to provide three municipal
judges on Staten Island is also of in
terest to Staten Island. There are at
present but two municipal judges in
Richmond and the other is to estab-
lish court on this end of the island.
Assemblyman William l.. Vaughan
had similar bill in the legislature
last year but this was defeated.
There is also bill now pending
fixing the salary of the county clerk
of Richmond at $500. The NUM-
cipal court justices are in on the
raise of salary. They are now receiv-
ing $4,000 and the new bill provides
that they shall receive $1,000 per
annum. These bills are expected to
come up before the close of the legis-
lature this month.

WASHINGTON, March 10.-Op-
position to any change in the pro-

in America.
The statement, based on action
taken at conference OF religious
organizations called by the councils
commission on temperance, which
is headed by Folner Governor Mil
likon of Maine, asserts that such
liberalization of the statutes would
effecc a virtual nullification" of the
prohibition amendment. Declaring
that the church has the same NOR
al obligation to finish this task that
it had to initiate it," the council
adds that "by every moral standard
the buyer of Illicit. liquor is a guilty
as the seller
"After three years" it says, sit il
demonstrated that prohibition has
pl oduced wide. benefigs despite diff
culties in enforcement and constant
misrepresentation.
I'VE call upon the Christian citi-
zens of the nation to sustain the
expressed purpose Of the federal
government to enforce the law; to
report violations Of it to the proper
officials as is their duty, so declared
by the United States supreme court;
and to support all local, state and
federal officers who obey and effec-
lively enforce this law in accordance
with their oath of office.
THE churches have a special re-
|sponsibility to interpret to the peo-
pie the meaning and demonstrated
benefits of prohibition. to set forth
the reasons for personal total alb
stinence, and to build on firm foun-
dations respect for all law.
1.-The education and mobilization,
Of a public conscience favorable to
the retention and enforcement of
the law are fundamental to its
success.
THE churches of America were
largely responsible of the public
sentiment, which resulted in the
adoption of this amendment. The
bility to create and maintain the
necessary public sentiment to en-
force the prohibition law"
