OPPOSITION OF
DRY LEAGUE TO
AL EXPRESSED
Anti Saloon Organization
Head breaches Two Ser
mons Here.

If Governor Alfred e. Smith Of
New York should secure the Demo
cratic presidential nomination in
1928, his support will not come from
the Anti-Saloon League. This was
made very plain by DR.. r. Scott Nc
Bride, superintendent Of the national
organization, in a sermon he
preached Sunday night at Garfield
Avenue M. e. Church.
"Al' stands for alcohol, in Nc
Brides opinion.
To members Of the league "modi-
fication' means Modification" and
the organization is going to fight
hard to prevent any less stringent
wine or beer laws from being passed,
he explained. To rally evangelical
churchmen to support Of this cause
was the purpose Of McBride's
speech both Sunday night and Sun
day morning. The morning sermon
was given at Central Avenue M. e..
Church. In each case the customary
little envelopes and pencils were
passed and contributions to the
leagues war chest sought.
Tall, with back hair, and dressed
in the sober garb of the ministry,
Mcbride stood in the pulpit as an
American st. George Staying the
dragon. formerly tire bartender, but
not the bootlegger.
Gods Will
prohibition is part Of the Const1-
tuition of the United States because
1t is Gods WILL" he declared, with
an earnestness that is convincing.
"The Eighteenth Amendment was
passed by the largest expression of
approval ever given to any part of
the Constitution and prohibition is
here because the people want 1t.
1.-THE only trouble with enforce
ment is that the vets don't want to
try it. They are trying to detour
around the Constitution with light
wine and beer.
Even at it's worse, with friends Of
the bootlegger in enforcement Off
ces in the large cities, prohibition
has proven it's worth-whileness Ii
we would bring back the old saloon
conditions for just six months, every
one would be for prohibition. They
forget how rotten those old days
were"
A smile crossed the speakers face
when he related how the "wets," as
he terms them, are taking up the
crxy of "So We the VOuth -
Charges Others
Maybe we were mistaken about
the saloon keeper and didn't under
stand that he was running his busi-
ness for the benefit of the youth OF
our country" he said.
Besides naming Smith as a pos
sible wet Democratic candidate. Mo-
Bride also charged Senator James
Reed of Missouri, a Democrat, and
Nicholas Murray Butler, Columbia
University president, a Republican,
with dampness.
"Wec newspapers" meaning news
papers that take a stand for modi-
fication of the Volstead act, were
scored roundly by the speaker.
Today Mcbride addressed a
Methodist ministers meeting. He
will leave the city tonight.

Present Report
The report, in part, follows:
"In view OF the fact that these
buildings were built shortly after
the Civil War, the sanitary system
is not modern. The heating and
lighting facilities are terrible.
"A new girls cottage is needed.
1.-THE administration is to be con
graduated upon the wonderful work
it is doing. The fact that II was
twenty-four years after the Civil
War when the home had its largest
population makes one believe that
within ten years the population will
more than double with children of
veterans of the World War. Appli
cations now on file are more than
can be taken care of. The American
Legion and the State of Indiana
should begin now to prepare to take
care of the children of the World
War veterans.
Superintendent Cortner and the
board of trustees have laid out
program, If the Legislature will APP
propriate the money, for a new girls
cottage. modern plumbing, repair of
boys cottage, rebuilding and rehoor-
ing the kitchen and dining room,
They have asked for an appropri-
alton Of $350,000, of which $1S5,000
is needed for maintenance Last year
the cost Of maintaining the home
was $177,741.S1.
Too Conservative

Appropriation Is too conservative. II
should include a new school build
ing, which would cast 100000 to

ed, to raise grain for the stock,
which provide much of the milk and
food.
1.-The superintendent ane the board
of trustees want the help and back
ing of the American Legion. We
recommend that the legislative com
mittee be made familiar with the
facts and conditions, and when time
comes for passing appropriations the
Legion see that a proper amount
of money Is appropriated"
