partisanship suggest. Ii should new CT be forgotten that the character of the Republican party is affected by the policies of it's chairman and that per sonal hostility to the chairman may have the effect which is seen in party weakness at the polls. The Republi-
 an party is the only sufferer from this hostility and the Democratic party the only gainer.
 It does not become Republican lead CTS to play the game of the enemies of the party under any circumstances, and least of all to gratify factional ill will. But the result of the eaueuses has cleared the atmosphere and the Republican party can go into the cam paign of 1924 confident that the party organization will not be thwarted in it's efforts to win victory for the par ty in November. At the present mo- ment the Republican party in Connec- ticut was never stronger. It should not be forgotten that the fight was within the party and not outside it.. and that the defeated faetionists. ac- cepting defeat as good sportsmen, in the best sense of the word, will have ample opportunities to show their loy- alty to the Republican party in its grapple with the common enemy of or
 anization Republicans and faetionists.

ANTISALOON LEAGUES METHODS AND POLICY
ARE JUSTIFIED BY PAST Achievements
Message from General Superintendent
ference Which Was Held Preceding the ThirtyYear Jubilee
Convention of the Ani-Saoon League

rcsentng every State League in the
nation and the national League, unani-
mously agreed that it would be IN
wise to attempt TO influence either or
both parties to insert a law enforce
ment plank in the party platform, and
if such plank were inserted it would 10
all intents and purposes be meaning
less for the well-knowu reason that
every public official on assuming Of
fee takes an oath to uphold and sup
port the Constitution. This the can
didates who are successful at the polls
will do irrespective of whether their
party declares for law enforcement or
whether it is silent on that question,
or whether perchance it should declare
for multiplying the Constitution by adj
vooating weakening or repeal of the
Nolstead law.
1t was pointed out that as cited in
Superintendent Bakers message, for
thirty years the Anti-Saloon League
has haged the fight and made prog
ress by following non-partisan meth
DDS. If ono party inserted an enforce
ment plank and the other did not it
would have a tendency to make a
party issue of this question when in
reality there can be no issue on the
subject OF supporting the Constitution.
Furthermore it might be that the party
debating for strict enforcement and
support of the Constitution would Of
fer candidate whose past record and
present declarations would line him
up with the forces that are working
for the return of beer and wine. while
on the other hand the party whose
platform was silent on this question
might offer candidates who are known
by their past record and declarations
to be in hearty accord with a program
for strict enforcement of the prohibit
ton law and the eighteenth article OF
the Constitution This would make
an embarrassing partisan issue.
1t was therefore advised that the
League continue to work along non
partisan lines and to pledge its sup
port to those candidates who are in
favor Of maintaining and enforcing the
eighteenth article of the Constitution
irrespective OF party affiliations.

AS A R. R. CONDUCTOR
SEES PROHIBITION

The Henderson North Carolina)
Daily Dispatch OF January ) says that
passenger conductors on the main line
of the Southern through Spencer re-
port dry Christmas on the rail
roads.
Captain L. I. Royal, OF Washing
ton, who is one of the best known and
best posted passenger conductors on
the line, is reported as saying that out
OF countless thousands hauled he did
not see an intoxicated person on the
trains this Christmas. lie has had an
experience of forty-four years on the
road, and he contrastcd the present
condition with that OF few years ago
when he declared that as a conductor
on passenger trains out of Salisbury
he took his life in his own hands when
he would go through colored cars to
collect tickets. and that he frequently
got his feet wet wading through liquor
and beer spilled in the aisle of his
train.
Captain Royal is anything but a
fanatic on the whisky question, con-
tinues this Dispatch story. He ad-
mits that at one time he believed in
it, but he says he now sees the enorm-
Gus economic advantages that follow
temperance and that the man who up
holds the traffic and claims there is as
much liquor as ever is either fool or
a liar. Commenting still further on
improved conditions under a dry re-
gime Captain Royal pointed out that
only one man attempts TO beat his way
on a passenger train now as compared
with so i'll the old days of booze.

MAY HASTEN ACTION ON
TREATY BY BRITON

A high administration official whose
name, was not mentioned, is quoted by
the New York Times of January / "a
expressing the opinion that the seizure
OF British liquor runners, far from en-.
dangering the so-called twelve-mile
treaty now awaiting acceptance by the
British government, more than likely
will hasten British approval. This OF
fetal said:
THE British government realizes
that the American government is not
interfering with legitimate British
commerce, and this government be-
lieves that majority OF the people OF
Great Britain are not i'll sympathy with
attempts to use the British flag to
smuggle liquor into the United States. "

GENERAL SUPT. BAKER
C0NvALESCING
A Tribute to Mrs. Baker
by Bishop Nicholson

Owing TO illness General Superin-
tendent DIR. +. a. Baker was not pres
ent at the convention. He sent mes
sage, however, each day by wire to the
delegates, which was greatly apprc-
ciated by all. He is leader greatly
beloved by national and state officers
and his name is familiar to every del
egate. Cheering news of his conva-
lescence was an inspiration.
Bishop Nicholson as presiding Of
ficer on Tuesdays session paid the fol-
lowing tribtue TO Mrs. Baker for her
faithfulness in ministering to the needs
of General Superintendent Baker dur
ing his long illness. Bishop Nichol-
son told the convention: 81 think
there is nothing more beautiful in my
observation OF family life in America
than the devotion of Mrs. Baker to
DIR. Baker. She has, for weeks, been
untiring, unwilling TO leave his bed
side, even long enough to attend the
services of her church, which she dear
ly loves. She is his nurse by day and
by night. We owe a marvellous debt
to Mrs. Baker and have no doubt in
my own mind after several visits there
that the rapid recovery OF DIR. Baker
is due entirely as much to the watch
full care of that noble wife as it is to
the attendance of the physicians"

INDUSTRIAL CONDITIONS

service made public January 10 says,
I'm such industrial areas as Illinois,
Pennsylvania, New York, Connecticut
and Massachusetts,, the usual and in
evitablc seasonal slackening is said 10
be of less consequence than usual, with
future resumption of factory opera
tons assured. In California there was
said to be no let up of construction in
the winter
The year 1928 made record in the
matter OF employment and peak wages
and according to this survey indica-
tons are that this condition will con-
tinue.,
There is no wet country on earth

WHICH WOULD YOU HAVE?

Say, would you have the good old days
When drink was in its prime?
When jails and prisons were well crammed
And the land was filled with crme'
And accidents were rife,
And DRINKS and roughs by day and night
Were a menace unto life?
Or would you have the coming days
With peace, and pleasure true,
When the drink curse will be swept away
And its evils mourned by few?
And better feelings shall stir the mind
With the spread of humanity's PLAN
And the earth shall become a paradise
And happier place for man'

SEIZED LIQUOR IN STORAGE STOLEN
Robbers Take 100000 Worth of Liz
uor from Warehouse; Contrabsnd
Should be Guarded in Government
Warehouses

Two hundred barrels OF whisky, val
ucd at 100000, stored by the govern
ment i'll the warehouse of Pierce, But
Ter and Pierce in Newark, n. J., were
stolen from the premises by a gang
of men who worked undisturbed on
January II for more than two hours.
1t is estimated that i'll addition about
$4,000 worth OF liquor was destroyed
when barrels being carried down from
the fifth floor fell and were smashed.
Federal agents OF five states prompt
" went on the trail OF the bandits.
The loot was carried away by the
robbers in two large automobile trucks.
The night guard was bound and
gagged and at the point OF revolver
he was compelled to signal a private
detective agency "all's Well twice
during the robbery. a large part OF
tho liquor stolen had been captured i'll
raids and is in litigation. If the gov
eminent loses it may be compelled to
reimburse these claimants.
Part OF the fighting program OF the
Anti-Saloon League for 1924 includes
the proposal for the enactment Of a
law authorizing the storage OF seized
liquors in government warehouse and
on government property, thus safe
guarding against the robbery OF
such liquors as i'll the case cited above.

The American issue. [volume] (Westerville, Ohio) 1912-19??, 1924-01-25

The following message was read ct
the opening session OF the Workers
Conference, January 9:
Following the Citizenship Confer
enoe at Washington, the impact of
which was fine, forceful and very
helpful, ii was observed that d group
of enthusiasts over east came together
for consultation with the suggestion
that the time had come to form a
new organization.
The reason assigned was that the
Anti Saloon League had become too
political and the specific incident given
was the late senatorial election in Ohio
where the League opposed Senator
Pomcrene and aided Senator Tess.
"The fact that Senator Pomerenc
had to his discredit 81 votes against
prohibition and prohibition enforce
ment and Senator Fcss had TO his
credit about the same number of votes
for prohibition, did not occur TO these
organizationists.
Neither had they carefully distin-
guished between an explosion and a
siege.
The Anti Saloon League has spent
thirty years and some millions OF dol
lars in the organization business with
pretty industrious and well-traned
corps OF workers. Yet there are fifty
million people in the United States
who know nothing about the League
and could not correctly speak its OF
fetal name. These dear folk overlook
the fact that we are where VIC are by
the wise application OF Christian poll
tics, and when the job is completed it
will be by the same method.
Some really good folk have hard
time to distinguish between non-parti-
san politics and partsanship.'

GIVEN TWO YEAR TERM

The New York Times, in a special

put up stubborn resistance to the Of

where he was carrying on a traffic in
booze as side line. On conviction
he was condemned to two years I'M

Some courts in this country could
