Worcester Democrat and the ledger-enterprise. (Pocomoke City, Md.) 1921-1953, 1923-03-10

People of Easton are incensed over
the act of the party who broke open
the stable of j. w. Cohen and cut
most Of the tongue Of a fne-looking
horse. Mr.. Cohen states that when
he went to his stable in the morning
to feed he noticed quantity of blood
il the stall and Immediately called a
veterinary surgeon.
Examination disclosed the fact that
most of the tongue of the animal was
severed and hanging by a small par
ticle of the outer coating. About three
and a half inches of the tongue was
cut off and the horse is unable to eat.
Sheriff Ira K. Caulk has offered a re-
ward of $50 for the arrest and convic-
ton of the guilty person.
Mr.. Cohen owns the entire block
from Rover street to South street,
bordering on the Pennsylvania Rail-
road, with the exception Of one lot,
containing pool parlor. Negroes run
this, and from time to time they have
complained Of the stable as being OBJ
roxious. The stable has been dam
aged several times, but this is the first
attempt made to harm the horses.

VioLat0rs OF VoLstead Act And
Members Of Ku Klux Khan CLassed
Among Most Dangerous Radicals
Dr. Albert Bushnell Hart Of Harvard University Makes Sweep
ing In Address To National Republican Club
And Published In The "New York Times"

In our issue of last week we prom
Used to publish an article from DR..
Hart on the Prohibition question. At
the time, we thought the report Of
Er. Harris speech, which report was
made in the New York Times, and
which we clipped, was somewhat more
exhaustive than what follows in this
column. We must confess to super
fetal reading of the clipping before
inserting it in the Democrat land rath-
er too much reliance upon headlines.
The article is rather disappointing
but we publish according to promise.
"Violators of the Volstead act and
members of the Ku Klux Khan are
classn1 among the most dangerous

bert Bushnell Hart, Professor of His
tory and Constitutional Government
in Harvard University, in speech in
discussion of the question, els Radi-
calism Undermining Constitutional
Government in the United States? ?" at
the National Republican Club.
"Dr. Hart, in making this assertion,
used the word radical in it's broad
sense, defining conservatives as those
who say "Let's leave well enough a.
lone," and radicals as those whose slo-
gan is, "Let's have a new DEAL" He
pointed out that the Constitution of
the United States contained within
itself provision for it's amendment and
that the right to amend the Constitu-
ton was the constitutional right of
American citizens.
"Those who oppose the right to a.
mend are dangerous radicals" he said,
"and yet there are many persons, usu-
ally classed as conservatives, who op-
pose the Eighteenth Amendment to
the Constitution as an infringement
upon their personal liberty.
"There are no more dangerous radi-
Gals than those who violate the Vol

stead law because they don't like i
and because they believee it infringes
upon their personal liberty. There are
two good reasons for the Volstead act
the first of which is the enormous
harm that has been done by drink.
"The second reason is that the ex-
perience of one hundred years has
shown that the liquor business has al
ways been an organized political bust
Eess. It has meddled in politics thru
out the Union and has had affiliations
with every party. The liquor men
have never obeyed the law.

"That is the reason why you can't
have wine and beer. If per cent
beer were legalized, they would sell
beer containing 10 and II per cent
If the sale of 10 per cent wine was
authorized, they would sell wine con-
tanning 80 per cent. of alcohol.
Gin declaring that the members of
the Ku Klux Khan constituted another
group of dangerous radicals, DR.. Hart
said that this organization undertook
to supplant the ordinary courts and to
administer cruel and unusual pun
ishments.
Gin Louisiana, where a brave Gov
