EDGE STATEMENTS DISPUTED
Dry Worker Says Ex-President Not
For Beer

An echo of the Edge-Hobart booze
debate in Newark came on the 9th
day of April from Samuel Wilson,
assistant State superintendent of
the ti-Saloon League, who ques
toned the accuracy of several of
Senator Edges declarations about the
non-effectiveness of the !olstead law.
Senator Edge tried to align Presi-
dent Wilson as a supporter of his pro-
beer program said Mr.. Wilson.
president Wilson did not veto one
half of one per cent. 1t was the Sen
ator's undoubted purpose to have the
audience understand that President
Wilson's veto was because he objected
to the definition of Intoxicating liquor
in the act, and without doubt his hear
ers so interpreted him.
"The Presidents objection was to
Title l of the act, relating to war
time prohibition, being included in the
same law with Title 2, providing for
the enforcement of the eighteenth
amendment, and he asked for their
separation"
Assistant Secretary Wilson declared
that Edge when a candidate for Gov
ernor sought the endorsement of the
Anti-Saloon League, and only signed
the State local option law for the
leagues support. Mr. Wilson added:
Senator Edge quoted a statement
indicating an increase in the number
of alcoholic psychosis cases in the
Trenton Hospital in 1922. He omits
to state that previously DR.. Cotton
had reported a decrease from 81 per
cent of the total in pre-prohibition
days to 2 per cent in 1921, and attri-
buted the disease to prohibition. Re-
ferring to the 1922 increase I quote
direct from a letter Of Dr. Cotton who
SAYS:
There isno question that the Eigh-
teenth Amendment was effective for
time, but the main difficulty has
been in its enforcement. The large
number of alcoholic cases shows that
the law is not enforced in our section
of the State at least
"This confirms Mr.. Hobart's claim
If the police officers of Newark and
other large cities did their duty as
we'll as do the prohibition officers you
wouldn't hear anything about non
enforcement.

is an Indictment Of public officers who
are inefficient or in collusion with law
breakers, not Of the law

| WELLS MILL SAFE.
FLOOD CREST PAST
Alamuchee Creek Higher Than
Ever Before Known When
Dam Threatened

W. C. Mcdonald, mixer at Wells
mill, and a son OF J. NJ. Mcdonald,
owner of the property, was in
Americas today and told of how
nearly the mill dam there came to
be washed out during recent heavy
rains. Alamuehee creek, which
furnishes the mill water supply, Mr..
Mcdonald says, reached higher
stage than ever known before, the
crest of the flood passing Sunday
night. Describing the danger to
the mill dam today, he said
Sunday afternoon, May 81, the
water began to rise 50 rapidly that
the check dam broke and has kept
buggies, wagons, cars and etc. from
passing that road.
Tuesday morninA, May 30, the
news reached the town that the Nc
Donald. or better known as Wells
mill pond was rising and danger of
the dam breaking.
THE water began to rise at the
rate of inches an hour All the
flood gates were open and every
thing had been done to save the
DAM
AT 1870 someone noticed
crack in the earth on the dam back
of the mill, caused from water
pouring from the water box, slosh-
ing against the side Of the dam,
causing it to stuff of. Soon the
dam began crumbling to pieces.
When one large lump Of earth had
rolled into the water behind the
mill house the road had split in the
middle for a distance of about 20
feet long
after help had been summoned
Messrs. Charlie Israel, Bob viii
liams and Seward Jolleys, with a
bunch of negroes began to work
with interest. Trees were cut,
branches and logs piled into the
washouts and sacks of sand were
placed into the water making a
foundation; loose sand was hauled
and the washout soon filled.
IF the dam had been completely
destroyed the entire mill was in
danger of being washed away, car
rying the trestle also. There are
two car loads Of corn just received
now stored in the mill.
MANY people from Smithville
came out to see it and rendered
service wherever needed, which was
greatly appreciated by Mr.. Melon
