New York Anti-Saloon League Says
Roosevelt's Speech Accomplishes
Purpose of Pooling Some Drys

ceptance made a statement relative to
dry law enforcement which is being in
terpreted by some as declaration that
ought to be satisfactory to the dry vot-
erS.
He arraigns the Democrats for having
promised the people lasE year by infer
ence the return of beer and light wine.
He says that they knew they could not
give them beer and light wines, they
knew it was not within their power.
Roosevelt ought not to be TOO severe on
his Democratic friends because as
member of the legislature he himself
voted for a us per cent beer bill.
In his speech he said: Il shall do all
in my power therefore to secure the en-
actment of proper statutes to assist Our
peace officers in the enforcement of this.
act of Congress (Volstead act) as well
as all other acts and laws, as long as it
remains in the statute books. Whether
or not you or | approve of an individual
law, there is one course open to us and
only one if we are real Americans, and
that is to enforce it as long as it remains
the law"
Which Way is He Headed?
In discussing Roosevelts declaration,
New York American Issue, the official
organ of the Anti Saloon League of New
York, says in part:
In his speech OF acceptance Theodore
Roosevelt, Republican candidate for
Governor, seemed at first reading to
leave himself facing in the opposite di-
ERECTION on prohibition from that which
he has previously taken. On the second
reading, however, it is apparent that not
even cross-eyed man could tell which
way Mr.. Roosevelt is headed. He made
it perfectly evident that he was and still
is wet There can be no doubt upon this
after. his repeated insistence upon en-
forcement of law whether one likes it
or not" No person who really believes
in the fundamental principle of a law
qualities every statement he makes re-
garding its enforcemeL. or makes sug-
gestions about modification or lack of
unanimity of support.
What He Did Not Say
The daily press has been more gener-
Gus with Mr.. Roosevelt in his so-called
enforcement pronouncement than his
words afford basis for. First, let us see
what he did not say. He did not say
anything about the original rather dras-
tic plank on prohibition enforcement
drafted for the Republican state plat
form but dropped in the waste basket
under orders from Senator Wadsworth
He did not say he was for the equiva-
lent of the Mullan Gage law. He did
not say he was for the equivalent of the
jerks bill. He did not say that he was
in favor of setting the courts of New
York at work furnishing bootleggers. He
did not say that he was in favor of a
state enforcement law. He did not say
that he was in favor of a state law under
the concurrent power demanded by the
Eighteenth Amendment for the enforce
ment of prohibition by the state of New
York
What He Did Say
On the other hand, what in effect did

On the other hand, what in effect did
