WHEELER DENIES
NOMINATION PLAN
Says He Did Not Propose In
dependent Candidate When
View Is Attacked.

By the Associated Press.
Renewed discussion Of the possible
attitude of Southern drys toward a
wet presidential candidate led Wayne
B. Wheeler today to disclaim construc.
tions he said had been placed on his
recent utterances on the question.
A one-sentence statement by the
general counsel of the League, sent
here from his Summer home in Michi-
gan said:
"Dr. Wayne B. Wheeler today, re-
ferring to his discussion of political
possibilities, disclaimed the construc-
would initiate the nomination of an in
dependent dry presidential candidate
if neither dominant political party can
date is right on the prohibition ques-
tion."
Opinion Held Personal.
The statement was prompted by the
declaration of Bishop James Cannon,
jr.. and DIR. Arthur j. Barton, repre-
sentng the Southern Methodists and
Baptists. respectively. that recent
expression by Mr.. Wheeler on the
subject represented only his own opin-
ion, and not that the league.
A paragraph in the Wheeler state
ment referred to said:
There will be at least one of the ma.
tional dominant parties which will
have a satisfactory candidate for the
maintenance and enforcement of the
eighteenth amendment. There is a
possibility that both will be satisfac-
tory. Then the league keeps hands
off. If Gov. Smith is nominated, and
the drys in the South would rather
vote for an independent dry candidate
for President than for dry Republic
an, this would give them a chance to
register their protest.
Bishop Cannon and DIR. Barton OBJ
jected to this statement, declaring
that while Southern Democrats would
never agree to the nomination of
wet candidate, if the Democrats should
nominate wet. dry Democrats.
North as we'll as South, will doubtless
determine what course they will fol-
low"
Record Their Disagreement.
"We - not think it lat, ap.
pIOpIidtS VI HelpI ul To- lSdS u Ol-
tlcial to declare tina. one party will
nominate a candidate satisfactory to
the league" said the statement, made
public last night. of Bishop Cannon
and DR.. Barton, who declared they felt
constrained to record publicly their
disagreement with Mr.. Wheeler" on
his viewpoint.
Their disagreement was based, they
said, on Mr.. Wheeler's implying that
many Southern dry Democrats would
be too narrow to vote for the satis-
factory dry Republican, but would
demand the nomination of an inde-
pendent dry Democrat. even though
there would be absolutely no possi-
bility of his election"
In expressing this difference of opin-
ion. however, the two officials added
there was absolute unity of purpose
among u.s. on the objective of the
Anti-Saloon League to maintain and
enforce the eighteenth amendment.
They also highly lauded the work of
MIR. Wheeler in the cause of prohibit
ton during the past 80 years"

CAUSESLABOR ROW
Green, at Pan-American Con-
gress, Hits Communistic
Activities.

A fight on the floor over communi-
cation from President Machado of
Cuba and an attack by President Will
liam Green on communistic activities
in Latin America divided attention of
the Fifth Congress of the Pan-Ameri-
can Federation of Labor here today
The reading of the communication
from President Machado. in which he
indorsed the work of the congress and
expressed confidence in it's success,
brought from Picardo A. Martinez,
delegate from Venezuela, the charge
that President Machado's administra-
ton had seen oppression, assault,
murder. and other crimes" and the
motion that his communication be
stricken from the minutes of the
meeting.
There is strong possibility" Mar.
tinez declared, that if this communi.
cation is accepted, he would take ad-
vantage of it to make it appear that
he is the true protector of the work
ing men of Cuba"
Woll Opposes Plan.
Matthew Woll, American delegate,
took issue with Martinez, declaring
that to refuse to accept the communi-
cation would be foolish and contrary
TO parliamentary procedure. 1t in no
way commits the conference or the del.
egates," he said. Rather it commits
President Machado to a recognition of
the Pan-American Federation of Labor
as the only legitimate labor movement.
Regardless of his previous attitude,
we can appeal to the workers and
Machado cannot resist such an ap-
PEAL
President Green ruled that Mar.
tinez's motion was out of order. and
declaring that it would be injurious to
the congress to reject the communica.
ton, ordered it read into the record.
Green's attack on communism came
a few minutes later, and was inspired
by statements from delegates from
Guatemala and San Domingo that
forces We're at work in those coun-
tries seeking to destroy the influences
of the federation.

EVIL ASSOCIATIONS

I never drink Bourbon or rye
Or sip "starboard lights"* through
a straw,
A deep veneratiOn have I
For the great institution of law
And yet am filled with dismay,
I am troubled and nervous and pale
The soda / swallowed today
May presently land me in Jail.
In fact I'm convinced that the slip
was irreparable
For whisky and soda are one and
inseparable.
No spirits fermenti use,
The law I profoundly respect
Mint juleps T sternly refuse,
Gin rickeys 1 firmly reject.
Yet visions of trouble arise like a
ghost
My uneasy conscience to plague,
For yesterday morning I took with
my toast
And coffee cold storage egg.
And sherry and egg are as brother to
brother;
You can't mention the one and not
think of the other.
Where laughter and singing abound
I sit unresponsive and glum,
II groan when the bowl is. passed
round
For I know it is tainted with rum
I even turn down the near beer,
Yet I feel wild shudder of fright
For the sheriff if likely to hear
Of the pretzel nibbled last night.
And pretzels, and songs about "Al-
ways Fair Weather"
And lager have always been banded
together.
