National Officials Quoted.

Several state and national officials of the anti-saloon league were quot cd in replies as to q query as 10 whether they thought the New York body needed reorganization as a re- suit of disclosures in the case of Mr. Anderson. Among these were:
 r. 4. Baker, general superintcnd- ent of the anti-saloon league of America: No further reorganization is necessary than the election of an- other state superintendent"
 l., r. Tucker, superintendent of the Syracuse district: "Complete reor- ganization of the anti-saloon league as q result of the Anderson trial dis closures unnecessary. There is too good material in the league to be scrapped. If any dead wood appears in the structure throw il out, but don't condemn the entire organization for the mistakes of one man."
 George A. Fowler, superintendent of the western district Of the state: The anti-saloon league of New York is bigger than any individual in il and l am confident that whatever adjustments need 10 be made by rca- son of Mr. Andersop's conviction and subsequent resignation will be ably taken care of by the board of direct OTIS.
