WASHINGTON, Sept. 27.-Presi- dent Coolidge is cautious, careful politician, according to every version. But he has made one blunder, ac- cording to Senator Pat Harrison of Mississippi. While posing on his fathers Plymouth farm raking and tossing hay, the President forgot to removed his starched cuffs.

Toronto, Oct. 24,--A campaign for Dominion wide prohibition in Canada will be started Immediately as result of the Ontario plebiscite which so far has giyeG the "drys' majority of more than So.Ooo votes, it was announced today by the Rev. Ben, Spence, leader of the dominion prohibition union.
 Tide Has Turned.
 "The tide of battle has turned" said Spence. We will not only re- gain the western provinces to the dry column but we will press for ward unitedly for a national prohi- bition. A Canada free from the blight of booze Is our ideal.
 Officials of the Moderation league, which led the fight for repeal of the temperance act said, however. that the results of the election showed a favorable trend toward government control of liquor distri- button. They pointed out that ir 1919 the "drys" had a majority at 407,0O0 in the voting to confirm the temperance act, whereas the major ity in the present election probably would be approximately over 35,O0O
 "The majority is too slight" said I. F. Hellmuth, president of the Moderation league. There hal been a big turnover and in view ol the fact that the cities have turned down the Ontario temperance act, il will be impossible to enforce it There has been a change in public opinion"
