WASHINGTON, April 19.-There
is nothing except bad news to report
for those who are growing tired of
this talk about prohibition.
More talk is likely before there is
less. What we are hearing now is
only the preliminary workout Of the

be a political football for twenty
years. If he erred, it probably was
on the side Of conservatism unless
