WORLD CHURCHMEN
HALT "DRY'S' TALK
U. S. Enthusiast Asked to
Quit by Delegates at
Stockholm Conference.
BY the Associated Press.

by the Associated Press.
STOCKHOLM, Sweden, August 25.
The benefits and evils of prohibi
ton, with special reference to the
United States, were discussed at the
session of the Universal Christian
Conference Yesterday. Bishop James
Cannon of Washington waXed so en-
thusiastic on the subject that he
spoke for several minutes beyond the
allotted time and the audience, grow
ing impatient, asked him to stop.
Bishop Cannon said that the Amer
lean dry regime would never be alter
ed. not only because it was part of
the Constitution, but also because
''the great majority of Christian citi-
zenS of the United States would never
admit to a new legacy of alcohol
trade
Several speakers opposed prohibi-
ton. Lord Salvesen. judge of the
Court Of Session. Scotland, and mem
ber of the judicial committee of the
priVy council. contended that under
normal conditions no majority had
the right TO prevent any person from
ordering his life according to his own
wish. provided he did not harm
others. Moderate drinkers, Lord
SalVeSen said. naturally were irri-
tated by the fact that possession of
alcoholic beverages was regarded by
state as illegal. He quoted statis-
tics from the United States, Norway
and Finland as evidence that prohibi
ton was not very successful.
Nobody any more denies the right
of a state TO regulate the sale and
consumption of alcoholic drinks" de-
clared the Scottish juriSt, but no ma
jority, however strong, has the right
in normal circumstances to prohibit
citizen from drinking a glass of beer,
wine or liqueur. Such legislation has
no footing in the peoples mind or in
justice, and to make it a crime still
less
Lord Salvesen was solicitor general
for Scotland in 1905. chairman of the
Royal Scots Association, chairman of
the Scottish Public House Reform
League and chairman of the Royal
Scots Benevolent Fund.
Rev. Henry Carter told the meeting
that alcohol consumption in England
from 1918 TO 1925 had decreased Al
per cent and that cases of intoXica
tion had decreased SO per cent, but
the government 5 income from alcohol
owing to higher taxation, had in
creased 112 per cent.
Prof. +. Boklin commended the
Swedish system of control, which was
successful in fighting abnormal con-
sumption

DRY RAID NETS 100
SMALL DEALERS
Sweeping Operations by U. S.
Agents in Savannah
Bring Big Haul.
By the Associated Press.


SAVANNAH, Ga, August 25.-Fed-
eral prohibition authorities yesterday
threw out a net in all sections of Sa-
vannah and drew into the tolls of the
United States Court nearly 100 small.
liquor dealers who, officers say, have
bee noperating here for many months.
The movement of the law came as
a complete surprise to those taken
into custody. Their arrests were made
by a large force of deputies who had
been issued bench warrants by Fed
eral Judge Barrett of Augusta. The
men operated under the direction of
George b. Mcleod, United States mar
shall
A number of stores were closed to-
night because their proprietorS had
been placed in jail.
Raids and arrests effected here to-
day created more popular excitement
than the apprehension two ago ago
of the Savannah gang" of big liquor
dealers, who bore their arrests Coolly
and speedily arranged bonds.
Prisoners today appeared to be of a
more emotional type. They were
largely of the small shopkeeper class
or persons who were charged with sell
ing forbidden beverages quietly in
their homes.
So great was the congestion of the
prisoners in the Federal offices that no
effort was made in the afternoon to
arrange bonds. The greater number
were able to provide sureties and were
given their liberty early tonight.
Many of those arrested today were
first offenders.
In several instances husband and
wife were arrested and detained to-
gether.
Very little red whisky was seized,
according TO Marshal Mcleod, who
said that for the most part the con-
traband was white corn liquor.

LAKE BEING
BUILT
Water Will Drive Electric
Generators and Improve
River Navigation

At Cherokee Bluffs, one of the
most isolated places of Alabama. an
artificial lake. which will have
shore-line 760 miles long and cover
90, 900 acres of land, is being built:
When completed in 1926 it will pro-
vide water to drive three $1,000
horse power electric generators.
~ Hitherto the Roosevelt dam reseT'
yoir has been considered the largest
artificial lake in the world but the
one at Cherokee Bluffs will, when
conpIeted. hold $50, 900. 100000 gal
Ions of water-110, 900, 90, 900 gallons
more than the capacity of the
Roosevelt Dam reservoir. In the
work under way in Alabama,
81 900 900 is being spent in clearing
the land to be flooded, a town Of
8 900 people has had TO be built for
those at work on the project and
branch line railroad has been con-
structed to bring in supplies
When finished this hydro-electric
DEVELOPMENT will assure a constant
flow of water in the Alabama river
and steamboat captains will be able
to count upon four and half feet
of water practically throughout the
wear. The electric generating equip
ment itself will be the largest of it's
kind in the South and throughout
the United States save for the
water driven generators at Niagara
Falls.

Electrical Cookery
"A Sunday Breakfast
BY Stella Elizabeth Deland--

In many American households
Sunday morning breakfast is a rite
1t is frequently q heartier meal
than that of the weekday morn
ings. This is particularly true IN
families where only two meals are
served on Sundays. Here IS q
breakfast menu that Is especially
appropriate for September for sucn
a family
GRAPES OR PEARS
BROILED SALT MACKEREL
DREAMED POTATOES
TOAST AND COFFEE
The fruit for this breakfast as
with all fruit should, of course, pc
washed carefully before putting u
on the table. The night before put
the mackerel to soak in cold water
and the next morning rinse II ana
dry it thoroughly. Then in the
shallow nan Of your electric grill
place four tablespoonfuls of butter
and then the fish. Broil this in
the compartment beneath the heat
ing element of the grill and While
it is cooking, potatoes cut into
dice may be creamed in the grill s
deeper pan above the heating eie-
ment.
start these dishes cooking a little
while before you sit down to break
fast with your family and they
viii be ready to serve by the time
the fruit course has been eaten,
since these two dishes need little
attention while cooking you can
easily eat your fruit and start
making toast on your electric toast
err. If YOU are unable to serve the
fish and potatoes and pour the
coffee at the same time let the
head of the house" serve the
mackerel and creamed potatoes.
Dreamed Potatoes
Make your creamed potatoes as
follows: Melt two tabIespoonfuls OF
butter in the deep pan of the grill
and into this stir, immediately the
butter is melted, two tablespoonfuls
of flour and a cup and half OF
milk. When all this begins to
thicken add the diced potatoes and
let them heat through thoroughly.
serve with chopped parsley
sprinkled over the creamed pota-
toes. Broiled salt mackerel -
usually. served with drawn butter
poured over it and sliced lemon.
Coffee
Coffee can of course be made d.
rectly at the table in the electric
coffee percolator allowing a table,
spoonful of coffee to each cupful OF
water, but il your family prefers
strong coffee allow one and
half tablespoonfuls of coffee Tor
each cupful of water.
Chocolate
Chocolate can also be made at
the table by using the electric grill
| either before or after the fish and
potatoes or other dishes have been
cooked. For four people make
chocolate as follows: To four cup
| fuls of milk and one cupful of
water when it has peen brought to
a boil on the top Of the grill add
four or five squares Of chocolate
which have been ether grated or
finely shaved with a knife, - then
bring the chocolate to quick bon
and it is ready to serve with milk
and whipped cream. If / think any
| OF my family may want a second
cup Of chocolate allow five cup
| fuls of milk and t-4o sof water and
increase the amount Of chocolate
slightly. The extra milk use to
dilute the chocolate to suit the IN
dividual taste of the members OF
my family.
