anti-prohibitionist, and therefore
considered dangerous" by Church
leaders throughout the district, were
met here Tuesday night by Gordon
Griffin, chairman of the Hidalgo
county Garner-for-congress clubs,
who asserted that Gamers record has
met the approval of the chiefs of the
national and state Anti-Saloon
leagues, "the men who maintain close
contact with an prohibition legisla-
ton"
In addresses made in Cameron
county week Mr.. Hardin indicated
that the Home and State" edited BY
Rev. Atticus Webb, head Of the Texas
AntI-Saloon league, would take q de-
cIded stand against Congressman
Garner. Rev. Webb was informed by
Hardin supporters that Garner would
vote for repeal Of the 18th amend
ment, and Immediately dispatched the
following telegram to the Uvalde
candidate:
Dallas, Texas, July 20,
Hon. John N. Garner,
"Uvalde, Tex.

to be certified evidence Garner

teenth amendment if the question
arises in the next session. Please

or any other original advocate OF it,
and my performance for the past ten
yearse ought TO be a nearnest Of good
Il would be happy to have your

tons.
"John N. Garner"
In answer to a query from Judge
II. l.. Yates relative to Gamers ac-
ceptability to the prohibition forces
represented BY the Anti-Saloon
league, Rev. Webb wired as follows:
Dallas, Texas, July p
"Mr. III. L. Yates:
National League, Washington City.
wires me that Garner voted against
Linthicum amendment relating to
poisoned liquor. This amendment
prohibited appropriations TO be used
TO enforce the law relating to de-
natured alcohol, il poisonous drugs
were used in denaturing. Gamers
vote was satisfactory 10 Anti-Saloon
League and was a test on prohibition.
"Atticus Webb"
To further ascertain the status of
Congressman Garner with the heads
of the prohibition organization in
Texas, Gordon Griffin of McAllen
dispatched the following telegram to
Rev. Webb Tuesday morning.
"McAllen, Texas, July "a
Rev. Attjcus Webb:
"Wire me Immediately my expense
whether or not John Gamers record
on prohibition has been and Is now

"Dallas, Texas, July q
"Gordon Griffin:

cratic members of congress from
