NEW YORK, May 25.-The law
of Indiana forbidding the use Of
liquor for medicinal purposes met
both praise and criticism in New
York today.
The law was brought to public
attention by letter to Governor Ed
Jackson of Indiana from Arthur L.
Gilliom, attorney general Of that
State. Gilliom said the Governor and
himself both had violated the law in
the last eighteen months to save
members of their families from death
after physicians prescribed whisky.
Both the Governor and attorney
general did wrong" the Rev. John
Roach Stratton. fundamentals
leader, said. "They should have per-
mitted the members of their famil-
les to die and have died themselves
rather than violate their oaths of
office. An officer of the law swears
to support the law and his family
interests should not cut the slightest
inquire once he has taken the oath.
Il challenge the whole proposition
of liquor for healing. Those who
read their bibles know that God has
promised to heal. Mrs. Straton and
myself have raised five healthy
children without the use of a single
bit of whisky. But granting that
whisky has some curative value, the
law in Indiana has saved so many
more lives than have been lost
through it that the balance is all on
its side"

tor of the Churchman, leading liberal

told police "She wants to see her
just once more before she goes.
Won't you try to get her back for

But how about that telephone
call, that she was married." he was
asked.
Her mother has not been out of
bed since Mary went away" he said.
"She hasn't been able to get out of
bed. She couldn't have telephoned.'"

"And besides the father said
we've heard that she went to De-

told us. And other persons have

So police are looking for Mary
