ENFORCE DRY Law IS The
PRESIDENTS ORDER
Coolidge Administration, Like
that of Late President, Stands
Squareiy Fer Prohibition

Assurance that the Coolidge admin
istration, ike that Of the late Presi-
dent Harding, stands squarely for
prohibition enforcement, was given by
Prohibition Commissioner Hayes in
an address Saturday at the opening
session of the Citizenship conference"
on enforcement, called by the Federal
council of churches.
Describes as inefficient a reforming
of the ranks Of dry leaders to combat
the enemies of prohibition enforce
ment, the conference was attended by
enforcement advocates from all parts
of the country, including state Off
cials and many prominent in church
and civic life for the adoption of a
practical program for awakening "the
moral force of the nation" to the need
of law observance. The conference
will continue in three day meeting.
"This administration is four-square
for effective enforcement" Commits
sioner Haynes declared in his ad-
dress to the conference. eve all
know how valiantly President Hard
ing supported and sponsored it. No
less wholehearted is President Cool
ldge's position on PAW enforcement.
Attorney General Daugherty's posi-
ton is always well known. The re-
port Of the attorney general recently
made to President Coolidge, covering
the activities of the department of
justice shows that department is in
dead earnest in the prosecution of
violators of the prohibition laws"
Commissioner Haynes called urgent
ly upon friends of prohibition to
awake to the "insidious propaganda"
which he charged, was being direc-
ted against the dry law
81 do not believe that our friends
have any adequate conception of the
amazing onslaught which is now in
progress and is under contemplation
by the enemy" said Mr.. Haynes, deny
ing that the ''drys" were discouraged
and declaring that the progress Of
enforcement had been most satisfac-
tory. In some localities, however,
principally on the eastern seaboard,
he said, there was strong opposition
sentiment and "almost complete demo-
bilization Of citizenship forces, until
officers, courts, prosecutors and jurics
have but little, if any, sense of public
support"
Delivering the address of welcome,
Bishop VIM. F. Mcdowell, of Wash
ington, declared the friends of prohi-
bition "have not the slightest inten-
ton Of yiending now the victory won
in the long struggle" Law enforce
ment as involved in the prohibition
question will be the dominant issue
Of the next presidential election,
Bishop Mcdowell declared, and candi-
dates must declare frankly now they
stand on that issue.
"Shall the saloon" he asked,
come back into our homes through
the front door? No; ten thousand
times, no. Then in the name of de-
cency let it not come back through
the cellar door OF the back door"

THE STATES ATTORNEY
SHIP

The Republican party in Garrett
county deserves to be heartily con-
graduated upon having avoided a pri-
mary fight for the States Attorney
ship. This means, or should mean,
united party behind the candidate,
Mr.. f. R. Jones, who was the choice
of the committee and who only ac-
cepted the nomination after being
urged to do SO by Republicans all
over the county.
-Four years AGO the Republicans
suffered a bitter primary contest for
this Office, each candidate. Of course,
having his own following, with the
result that the general election found
the party divided and the Democratic
candidate was victorious. The far
reaching effect of this debacle was
shown in the fact that more than
enough Republicans, apparently obliv-
ious to everything except the States
Attorneyship, neglected to vote at all
for Governor, then were required TO
elect Harry W. Nice, the Republican
candidate; or, in other words, if the
Republicans of this county had not
been diverted by a personal difference
of opinion over a local candidate they
would certainly have cast enough
votes to capture the Governorship of
the State. Respectable as our failure
to attain this victory was, we have
every prospect this year of reviewing
our mistake, and with a united party
electing not only Mr.. Jones to the
States Attorneyship but of casting
the deciding votes to make Mr.. Arm
strong our next Governor.
That this is a reasonable hope is
shown by the numerous assurances of
support which Mr.. Jones has received
from voters who opposed him four
years ago. The expressions of good
will toward his candidacy by men who
at the last election thought it incum-
bent upon them to support his oppon-
ent are gratifying in the extreme.
The great mass of Republicans all
over the county, remembering Mr..
Jones splendid administration from
1915 to 1919, and feeling not only
that he deserves reelection at this
time but that he is beyond a doubt
the man for the office, are rallying to
his aid.
The Mountain Democrat in it's is
sue of last Thursday asks that the
voters of the county support the
Democratic candidate on the grounds
OF economy, asserting that the pres
ent administration and the manner
IN which the present official conducted
the business of the office has been
saving to the county. This assertion
certainly was made by our brother
without consulting the county records.
If the Democrat will do this it will
find that the States Attorneys office
has cost the people more money in the
last four years than for any similar
period in the history of the courtyard
this in the face of the fact that the
work of the office has been apprecia-
bly, lessened in recent years.
After careful study of the situa-
ton and without being unduly swayed
by personal preferences, we predict a
substantial majority for the Repub-
lican candidate for. the States Attor-
neyship as well as for other candi-
dates on that ticket.

Salem County W. c. T. L. Rally
Day, observed in Friends Meeting
House, Woodstown, last Friday, was
another successful gala day for the
county organization and the great dry
cause for which it stands. Nearly
every number of the interesting pro-
gram was carried out as planned and
the decorating, reception, and refresh
ment committees looked out for the
pleasure and comfort of all visitors
and friends who came from far and
near.
Both the morning and afternoon
opening song service was conducted
by the county musical director, Mrs.
Emma L. Wiley, of Salem, which
means everything to having all hearts
attuned to the Infinite through the
power of sacred song. The morning
devotions were led by her whom the
whole county loves and honors, Mrs.
NJ. J.. Paulding, of Daretown, who was
so at home and so at ease in doing
this blessed service for the Master,
having taken her lesson from the
Book of Palms, and followed with a
most helpful selection from Robert J.
Burdette.
The afternoon Bible reading was
selected and arranged by Miss Blanche
Davis, who was unable to be present
at the afternoon opening, but sent
Miss Marguerite Peterson in her
place, and it was a jewel in the days
program.
The mandolin and piano selections
both morning and afternoon by Misses
Flitrraff and Clifford. were the sweet

Baptist In a World Congress

On page 2, column 2, is a report of
the Baptist World Alliance, now IN
session at Stockholm, Sweden. It IS
one of the largest conventions ever
held in the world, but little is reported
in the daily newspapers.
What is published on page 2 is
mostly concise Baptist doctrine. Cut
it out and put it under your hat band.
If any soaks in you will be imbued
with the source and principles of re-
ligious as well as political liberty
which is included in the word Amer
icaniSm."
Roger Williams, the founder Of
Rhode Island, is considered the Father
of Religious Liberty and the founder
of the Baptist Church in America The
constituency of the Baptist Church in
the United States is 22,869, 654 and
is exceeded only by the Methodist
with a constituency of 23,253,S5+
If you add to your knowledge what
the Baptist know you will see that You
will have more knowledge and wisdom
than others who do not know 50 much.
The Baptist have no superlnten-
dents, bishops, cardinals, pope, con-
vents nor monasteries for the poor
members to support. They are the
most democratic Church on earth and
have thousands of members among
the Swedes, Germans and others IN
this country who cannot speak the
English language.
What this great worldwide con-
vention does is of interest not only to
the members Of the Baptist Church.,
bat to others.
League of Nations Endorsed
On Wednesday, 25th, d resolution
was adopted which is in part as fol-
lows:
"The congress welcomes the forma-
ton Of q league Of nations and the
establishment of the an international
tribunal for the settlement Of disputes
between nations: it urges the Churches
to support the league and to complete
Il by bringing all nations into 1t IN
order to avoid war and to meet the
desire Of the people for universal
peace.
"The congress, representing very
many millions OF citizens, belong
inc to many governments, appeals to
the governments of the world to make
the maintenance of peace their first
aim. for the sake of each nations
people and for the sake of the happi-
ness an well-being Of all mankind
After representative Baptists from
Latin-America. China. India and
Africa had assured the alliance that
evangelical Christianity vas the only
hope for their countries, the CONGRESS
took a recess at moor and laid a
wreath on the tomb of Gustavus
Adolphus in recognition of his ser
vices to the cause of religion.

BERLIN. August 23.-Fighting for life, the German government intends 10 introduce strict and even brutal tax policy according ,o Finance Minister Hilferding.
 Addressing the reichstag budget committee, he announced that the government will demand that hold CTS of foreign currencles surrender them.
 He stated that an emergency meas ure resigned to force these hoarders of currency to give up their foreign moneys has already been drafted. Plans Stern Measures.
 We shall not hesitate at the stern est measures to compel payment, Hilferding declared.
 Payments will have to be made be- fore the end of September, and the amounts will he determined in pro- portion to the previous capital tax. If big business interests can prove that they do not have sufficient funds in foreign currency to meet their demands, they can then pay marks into the currency fund. This fund will be devoted to the stabili- zation of the mark and the purchase of foodstuffs.
 Hnferding pointed out that high prices had caused wide unrest throughout Germany and that imme diate action was essential to stem the tide of unrest.

REGULATIONS F0R FLYING DRAWN UP BY FEDERAL HEADS
Both Army And Navy Will Ask Larger Appropriations For
 National Defense
BY THOMAS L. STOKES

WASHINGTON. August 23-The government is now turning it's, at tention to an enlarged aeronautical program, both for peace and war. with the success of the air mail tests opening the gaNes to extensive new developments.
 In the opinion of air experts here a vast field of peace time benefits, as well as dangerous war menaces, is revealed in the speedy, but prac- tfcal and easy transContinental hop.
 The air mail service is expected to form one of the principal arguments before congress next year in the campaign for a more extensive pro- gram. from the optimism expressed by officials here on it's success.
 PROGRAM FORMULATED
 This Is the program already being formulated here:
 l. Regulation of commercial fly ing, to which this test will give a great impetus.
 ?. Development of both army and navy air services, for which large appropriations will be. urged.
 Commercial flying is now going on in small ways The success of this flight, demonstrating the practica- bility of night trips, will give 1t a great boost. The one thing that will aid commercial development more than anything else, in the opinion of air experts, is a regulation that will give confidence and protettion.
 Such regulation is provided in a bill introduced in the last congress by Representative Winslow, of Mass achusetts, which would map out air routes and require operators to be license, and insure protection in other ways. It will be pushed next session.
 MOFFETr URGES BILL
 Read Admiral w. A. Moffett, chief of the bureau of aeronautics of the navy, has urged such regulation for successful commercial development, along with his appeals for more ef- ficient air fighting equipment.
 Such law" Moffett said, would be great stimulus to aeronautics, for they would stabilize commercial air transportation and facilitate its healthy growth by creating public confidence in aviation.
 This confidence is now lacking because of the uncontrolled and ir- responsible gypsy fly CTS who oper- ate without restraint and very often with unsafe equipment"
 Both the army and navy air ser- vices here, spurred by the air race going on In France and England have prepared estimates for greatly increased appropriations next year. A total of 25,000,000 will be asked by Brig. Gen Patrick, read of the army air service, who states that this amount should be provided every year.

Mayor Taylor came to Montgomery for the announced purpose of pro- testing against the bin of Senator Craft. He appeared before the com mittee and while present Senator Craft requested that the bill be in definitely postponed. Although Mayor Taylor had the opportunity at that moment of making a suggestion foD the creation of an election board which would select election officers who would not be influenced by the majority of the city commission he failed to do so. The result is that Mayor Taylor and his associates George F. Crawford, both of whom are candidates for reelection, will name the officers who will conduct the election"
