PROHIBITION AND THE G. OF.

Those who expected some clesr-cut statement on prohibition by the re- publican platform framers have a worse job than finding needle in a haystack. The difference is that the needle might be found while the prohibition plank cannot.
 Most certainly. there is a generality on flaw and order" in the platform, said plank unctuously proclaiming that the party favors enforcement of the constitution and all laws" Why it is necessary for party platform to men, ton this self-evident assumption is beyond the ken of expectant citizenry.
 It happens that more people are ! talking and thinking about prohibition than any other single issue carpenter ed by the platform builders. By ignor- ing the subject the c. o. P. as much as intones to the world that the sub ject contains too much dynamite to be handled in public.
 The party would not talk out for smelorstion of the Yolstesd act be- cause of a division @ sentiment about it. New England and the middle Att lantic seaboard, especially the cities frankly oppose Vodsteadism; at least majority of their inhabitants don't like the enforced ride on the water wagon. Tn the middle west the same holds true of the large cities; but the rural sections and small cities are no shoutcrs for wet goods. The far west excepting California is indlsputably dry. So in order 10 cause no offonse to the sections that must be won over in order to win the election, the party fouts any direct reference to prohibit ton.
 In effect the democratic party vill perform about in similar fashion. It is even in a worse predicsment on the prohibition issue than tho republicans NuS Hlutbbhilh huhln'ih uNHotFdllC | states being sonorous and profound opponents to anything smacking of | wine, beer or whisl,ey In fact, that's l where the sandy Sahara started. And 1 as the democrats likewise are going to | WOO the western dry section, what but q denatured generality about the sub- ject can be anticipated?

 We may as well face the facts and take our mcdicine-or rather. what it is perhaps safe to call by that name.

a MILLION IN CHINA.
FACED BY FAMINE
Death Toll of Great Floods
Now About 14,000-Three
Provinces Suffer Most.
By the Associated Press.

PEKING, August 14-From $4,000
to $4,000 dead, and nearly $4,000 900
affected by famine. is the latest estf-
mate of the relief commission of the
victims of the floods which have been
almost general throughout China Of
the dead. 5000 perished in Kalgan,
Chilli province, and the majority of
the remainder in Human province,
which suffered more than other parts
of the country in the torrential
foods.
The metropolitan area. which in
cludes II counties from PekinE south
ward in Chilli province, with a popu-
lation of 100000, has 100000 per-
sons who need relief, according to
the commission. In other provinces
the number who will have to be
cared for is even greater.
In Human is is estimated there
are 4,760,000 SO situated; . in the
whole of Chilli, 5,100,0OO; Kiangsi,
100000; Kwangtung, 2,590,O0 Fukien,
10000; Shantung. 10000; Honan and
Hupeh, $4,000 each.
Chekiang province. is also reported
to have suffered, but no detailed re-
poNs have been received from there
The relief commission, basing it's
computation on the famine of 1921,
when 100000 sufferers required
$37,000,000 (Mexican) for relief. esti-
mated that the present emergency
required $20,o00.o00 (Mexican).

La TOILETTE TOLD
OF LABOR FULL 0. K.
Union Committee Declares
Ticket Is Endorsed With
out Restriction.

Officially notifying Senator La Fol-
lette of Wisconsin of the indorse-
ment given his presidential candi-
dacy and that of his running mate.
Senator Wheeler of Montana, by the
American Federation OF Labors ex-
ecutive council, a committee, headed
by Frank Morrison, secretary of the
federation, declared today that every
honorable effort" would be exerted to
bring about the election of the in
dependent candidates.
I'VE are instructed to say to you
for President Gompers," Mr.. Morrison
told Senator La Toilette, that we are
for you and for Senator Wheeler, that
We are for you without restriction
and that SO far as the 1924 preSi-
Dental tickets and platforms of the
two old parties are concerned we have
burned our bridges. The fight is on.
Platform Held Best.
Our examination of the platforms
has shown us beyond question that
both the Republican and Democratic
platforms are unacceptable, word,
by the way, that seems not to be
clearly understood in some quarters.
We hope to make it better understood
as time passes.
What applies to platforms applies
to candidates. We find in either case
no hope for the wage-earners of the
country. We find the candidates of
both parties wholly unacceptable.
LAS our report makes clear, we
have found the platform upon which
you are a candidate for President and
upon which Senator Wheeler is a
candidate for Vice President is more
acceptable to labor, more nearly
meets labor's aspirations and more
nearly meets the needs of the great
masses of people of our country, and
in particular those for whom we
speak, than does any other platform
now before the people,"
When he called on Senator La Fol-
lette, Mr.. Morrison was accompanied
by James O'Connell, president of the
federations metal trades department,
and Martin F. Ryan, president of the
Railway Carmen of America. All
three are members of the federations S
national non-partisan political cam
paign committee.
Senator La Toilette, responding in
formally to the message of the Fed
Grafton. expressed his appreciation
and said he would make a more
formal and extended reply in the near
future.
