A bill to repeal the Georgia prohi-
bition law and leave the full response
bility for enforcement Of the Volstead
act upon the federal government has
been introduced in the lower House.
The American issue. [volume] (Westerville, Ohio) 1912-19??, 1923-07-13

The Anti-Saloon League of
America, in harmony with its
policy of 30 years, will not request
the convention of either political
party to adopt dry platform
plank or one sustaining the Eight
eenth Amendment. The League
will, however, continue its policy
of endeavoring to obtain the
nomination and election of candi-
dates favorable to prohibition and
the effective enforcement of liquor
laws.
This is the slogan of theAnti-Sa-
loon League for the next national and
state campaigns. This declaration
made by the conference Of League
state superintendents and national of
fcials, held at Westerville, was ratified
by the executive committee of the or
ganization, sitting i'll Westerville june
%, following the closing OF the con
ference.
This declaration, it is explained does
not mean that the League will be in
different to the efforts of the vets to
get the national conventions to adopt
moist planks. OF course the League
which does not ask the adoption OF
dry planks, will fight any effort to
make Democrats or Republicans de-
clare for damp modification of the
Nolstead law, but the League does moi
believe any such modification has the
ghost of chance.

The American issue. [volume] (Westerville, Ohio) 1912-19??, 1923-07-13

Both Democrats and Republicans in
the conference and the executive conf
mttee meeting expressed the belief
that when the national conventions of
1924 adjourn the platforms will be
minus wet suggestion and both cand;-
dates will be dry.
Reaffirmation of the League position
OF thirty years is held to mean con-
tinuance of the policy of strict non-
partisanship and on-denominational-
ism, 4 course which has been uniform-
ly successful. 1t emphasizes the fact
that the League. with suffrage club in
hand, will watch wet heads, whether
they be adorned with the ears OF DON
key or elephant, as they lift them
selves on the political horizon, and

there will be warmth, comfort and hos

Realize Suspicion That Officials
Have Rum

Have Kun
"'With all good intention the major
ity sentiment of the United States has
sought by law to remove strong drink
as a curse upon the American citizen,
but ours is larger problem-how to
remove lawless drinking as menace
to the Republic itself
THAT phrase 'lawless drinking will
probably become the slogan of new
campaign on the part of the drys, and
ii would not be surprising to see Pres
ident Harding and other high officials
accept the plea of William Jennings
Bryan, who asks that everybody in the
government of the United States from
the President down take the pledge to
abstain from drinking ntoxicants. Mr.
Bryan's appeal has long gone un-
needed, but the Denver speech gives
it added momentum, for the people in
President Harding's circle have begun
to realize, indeed that one of the un-

popular suspicion that high officials
have plenty OF liquor, either from pre-
Volsteadian days or from friends who
do not inquire into the date of manu-
facture or origin too closely.
Waves of criticism like that have
been waited in the direction of the
White House for some time and the
President took occasion today to let
the public know just what they meant
Millions Resent Possession of Liquor

Many citizens said the President,
not teetotalers in tneir habits, law
fully acquired stores of private stocks
in anticipation of prohibition. pending
the ratification OF the amendment and
the enactment of regulatory law
Many others have had no scruple in
seeking supplies from those who vend
i'll defiance Of the law. The latter prac.
tice is rather too costly to be INDUCED
in by the masses so there are literally
American millions who resent the law
full possessions of the few. the lawlcss
practices of a few more and rebel
against the denial to the vast majority
Universal prohibition in the United
States would occasion far less discon-
tent than partial prohibition and par
tial indulgence
Mr.. Harding appealed for an
awakened conscience His speech
made a deep impression here for this
dry territory and the people have had
prohibition so long that they are con-
yinced of its merit, and the subject is
really not an issue here in the same
sense that it disturbs the politics of
other states where the prohibition
amendment has come as sudden
shock to urban habits.
"The President reached out in his
Denver address, of course, to the peo-
pie of all parts of the country and in
asmuch as the political aspects of the
transcontinental tour he is taking can
not be ignored there is every reason to
believe Mr.. Harding considers it
strategically wise to make the most of
AL Smiths action.
"Stop buying from bootleggers,
stop drinking-in fact, stop thirsti-
ness, is the advice which in effect Mr..
Harding gives to the American people,
lest contempt for law may make the
whole Republic insecure"

Congress Gets 1t First

The first person to be signally
honored under this procedure is James
Y. Couzens, Michigan Senator, who,
making public his declaration that the
Nolstead act is ridiculous and that
there must be 5 per cent beer and
some sort of light" wine, draws the
fire of DIR. P. A. Baker, general super
intendent of the Anti-Saloon League,
who, i'll statement printed elsewhere
in the Issue of this date, puts Couzens
in a class with Edwards of New
Jersey, Calder of New York, Reed of
Missouri, Shields of Tennessee and
Stanley of Kentucky, "in their pursuit
of the beer wagon"
New York Democrats who seek to
put upon Democratic All Smith the
whole burden for state notification of
the state dry code, received no COM
fort from the conference. This mes
sage, at the order of the conference,
was te1egraphed to George K. Nor
ris, state Republican chairman in New
York:
"a large number of the voters of
New York state who are dry and are
also Republicans desire to know the
attitude of the leadership of the party,
as represented in the state committee,
toward President Harding's declara-
ton for the enforcement OF prohibition
and corporation therein by the states.
Does the Republican leadership in New
York endorse the president without
qualification, or does it continue its
subservinence to the wet minority Of
the party and to be out Of harmony

Lincoln. Sept. 7.-Governor Bryan
today called the attention of news
paper men to the published accusation
of the Nebraska Farm Bureau fedora
tion. made yesterday. that the gov
ernor had refused 10 recognize the
law OF our state for the eradication
OF tuberculosis. In this connection
he declared that II any gathering had
passed such n declaration. they had
been inoculated with more politics
than tuberculosis.
The resolution. passed at a meeting
of the federation, recommended that
immediate legal steps be taken by
the farm organizations of Nebraska
to compel the governor to permit the
operation Of this law"
Governor Bryan declared that the
state had made all necessary arrange
ments and had prepared to carry out
this law as It intended to carry out
all other laws"
The governor explained. however.
that doctors. veterinarians and farm
ers themselvs had communicate to
him their disapproval OF the bovine
tuberculosis law. and he explained In
detail some OF the alleged fallaeies
of this law.
