strenuous ice breaking work be-
tween Rockland and Stonington. her

the humping given her at IL o'clock
Saturday morning when the coal
laden barge she had in tow at the
end of a hundred and fifty foot
hawser collided with her when the
cutter was halted in striking ice 80
inches thick.
The Cssipee's stern was broken
for the space of about Is feet and
the top of the iron bulwarks bent
in such Il shape that it would be
impossible for her to do any towing
III her present condition. as the haw-
sors would chafe immediately. Re-
pairs will be made by her own force
in three to four days. The vessel is
leaking slightly. some of her plates
having started. and before she goes
to sea again some rivetting must be
done.

Especial to kennebec JournaI.)
Washington, d. c.. Feb. 25-To-
day Senator Hale received urgent
messages from the citizens of Ban
gor and from A. p. Lane, the State
fuel director. advising him that the
coast guard cutter Ossipee which
has been working on the ice block
ade in Penobscot Bay had been
rammed by a barge she was tow
ing off Stonington and had to go in
TO dry dock for repairs which will
consume five days at least. The big
navy tug Mohave, which Senator
Hale succeeded in getting from the
Navy Department to assist the Ossi-
pee. has sprung a leak and has been
sent to Boston for repairs. The work
thus begun by these vessels was
stopped and Bangor and Eastern
Maine seemed as badly off as before
for coal, food supplies, and fertil-
izer.
Immediate action was requested
of Senator Hale, who upon receiv-
ing the kilograms had a personal
conference with Admiral Reynolds.
head of the United States coast
guard here. At the Senator's urgent
request. Admiral Reynolds ordered
the coast guard cutter Acushnet,
now working on the ice blockade at
Nantucket. to proceed to Penobscot
Bay and take the place of the Ossi-
pee and ordered a cutter from the
New York station to Nantucket.
Senator Hale wired in reply that
the AcuShnct was On the way to
Pcnobscot Bay and would handle the
situation there.
There are a number of steamers
and barges due at cSarsport with
coal for Bangor. which according to
the Chamber of Commerce of that
city is nearly out of coal and there
is no way of getting it in unless the
ice blockade is broken and the coal
can be landed at Searsport and
other Penobscot Bay points.
For several weeks Senator Hale
has been in closest touch with the
ice situation and surrounding islands
and has succeeded in having the
Ossipee break up the ice wherever
it was possible for the cutter to do
so. The unfortunate accidents to the
Cssipee and Mohave will not stop
the work begun by them and Sen
ator Hale has wired that il he can
assist further to call on

NTASHINGToN, June IA.
w AS a presidential cam
paign nears, national leaders
are slowly being beaten down
in their panic-stricken efforts
to keep prohibition outside
the pale of politics.
Throughout the nation vets are
strengthening their positions. And
judging solely from a symposium
undertaken by NEA Service for The
indianapolis Times they are. in
widely scattered places, carrying
public opinion with them.
This. however is not disturbing
the even tenor of the dry camps.
Subsurface rumblings broke into
the open when Governor AL Smith
of New York signed the bill re-
pealing the State enforcement act.
Wisconsin Immediately oiled it's
repeating machinery and the lower
house Of the General Assembly has
passed a measure similar to that
enacted in New York. which now
awaits Senate action.
An Illinois legislator, recalling
that a referendum of the people in
his State carried wet by $4,000
last year has introduced repeater.
Sentiment in New Orleans re-
ceived a jolt when Governor John
NJ. Parker congratulated Governor
Smith for having backbone.
Membership in the Association
Against the Prohibition Amendment
has more than doubled in San
Francisco and other coast cities.
The vets have unified their
ranks. They want two things:
Beer and wine. No whisky
They realize, and hope, that booze
is deader than last years styles.

National Symposium Reveals Dry Law Modification Trend

l y Not much investigation

the "open door" in New York
since Governor Smith signed
the dry law repeater.

Now it is even easier. But the big

the vast increase in the available
supply of beer.

bition act would seriously affect

They are not worrying about
such a contingency, just now. It
seems to be the consensus of opin-
ion among them that if the United
States does go wet again it will not
do so for at least four years.
