Editorial Comment
Keeping Maine Dry
portland Press-Herald)
Maina has racenflN been hnna

Maine has recently been honored
by the visit Of Prohibition Commits
sioner Roy A. Haynes. He said
The situation in Maine as regards
liquor smuggling Is the best ever
known" He then goes on to ana
lyze the situation to point out that
Maine people ought to be very well
satisfied with existing conditions.
Incidentally Mr.. Haynes says that
there should be an increased real
ization of local responsibility for en-
forcement which will permit the
Federal officials to devote their
energies to the larger matters, such
as conspiracy and smuggling.
The Prohibition Commissioners
discussion of this question Is ex-
actly Of as much value as 1t would
be were he to undertake to analyze
the conditions which exist upon the
planet Mars. He apparently knows
as little about the one as he does
about the other. Having been in
Maine a few days and talked with
a few men he assumes to know all
about affairs here. Had he called in
to conference some Of the Federal
prohibition agents who have been
spending their own money to help
ScCuio eflucHCo dSdIuoL SlAuSSlcTS
and rum runners, because the
Federal prohibition bureau will not
provide the necessary funds to do
this work, Mr.. Haynes might have
obtained some insight into real con-
ditions.
Haynes says that Maine is salts
factorily dry. The men on the Tight
ing line who know its real condition
believe 1t Is becoming altogether too
wet. They think there is more
liquor to be found in the State at
this moment than has been here at
one time for the last four years
Even the bootleggers laugh when
told there is no rum being snug
gled into the State. All the Federal
agents know what Is going on but
with their expense allowances cur
tailed they are not in a position to
do much about 1t. II Mr.. Haynes
had said that Maine was quite dry
and things were going very well be-
fore the bureau at Washington I'M
dertook to handicap the Federal
agents In their work here, he would
have been coming somewhere near
the truth.

INSIST ON ENFORCEMENT

Whatever may have been the i'm
preston made by the recent state
ment Of Prohibition Commissioner
Roy A. Haynes regarding the salts
factory condition Of enforcement in
Maine that received in some
quarters in this State. judging by
the comments. was not favorable to
the Commissioners knowledge Of
the situation. The Portland Press
Herald is very emphatic in expression
Of its opinion respecting the situa-
tion.
The question arises whether Mr..
Haynes. who does not appear to have
made any thorough investigation Of
the conditions in Maine, is not
speaking indirectly on behalf of
those who wish to spend less of the
Federal money on enforcement in
Maine and. knowing that Maine is in
sympathy with the prohibitory law.
assume that the efforts Of State and
local authorities will suffice for the
work to be done
Maine demonstrated a creditable
record Of enforcement in the DAYS
before this State, bordering on wet
Canada and the Atlantic ocean, has
by reason of the Federal restraint
become highway for transporta-
ton Of booze to other States as well
as In Maine. To expect Maine to en-
force the law without considerable
Federal assistance is expecting al
together too much.
There Is about this a reminder Of
obligation on our part It appears
we may not let George Cor Sam) do
it We must rely on ourselves,
whatever comes. II we no more
than prevent the distribution Of
struggled liquor locally, let alone
stopping It's passage through the
State, we will have to be on the Job
night and day. And IL Uncle Sam
let's up on his part of the lob 1t be-
hooves us to make any such negli-
gence as conspicuous as possible the
while we stand ready to CO. oeerate
with Federal efforts to enforce.
Maine Is for enforcement No
political party with any standing in
Maine says aught against that, al
though the Democratic platform
fails to say that it approves the
principle Of prohibition. 1t is for
enforcement, however, and has a
believer and observer for the head
of the ticket. The Republican party
Is not only for enforcement but is
very pronounced in its loyalty to the
18th Amendment, and it's candidates
represent the party's position. Now
let Names performance measure up
to our convictions in this respect.

SHOULD CARRY OUR FLAG

II We turn back to the opinion of
the American people respecting
shipping Immediately following our
experience in tho war We may hest
tate to endorse the opinion of Mr..
Matthew W. Brush as given to
President Coolidge. That in effect
was. 1t makes no practical diff
ference under which Tag American
ships sail.
His conclusion that the Govern
ment Is incapable Of operating ships
ut q profit, however, is easily sus-
ceptible Of proof. 1t IL by no means
certain that private enterprise could
not give US better and less expensive
service with our mails. than does
the Government, but that doesn't
mean We should turn this service
over to private enterprise. We think
the Government should turn its ship
ping over to private enterprise. I'M
der the American nag, and make It
worth while for American private
enterprise to carry on.
