developments III the Philadelphia police scandal involv
ing than OF police officers OF that CITY in
alleged conspiracy connected with the bootleg n
dustry Many indictments have been returned against
certain police officials accused Of accepting huge SUMS
Of protection money from booteggers and runnes.

Philadelphia to be congratulated upon the good start
made in breaking up this system CT graft carried
by this unholy combination of criminal police officers
criminal bootleggers Let the good work continue
and let these officers who to uphold the law
but who have betrayed their trust suffer equally with
the criminal whom they have been protecting.
No doubt the wet press and wet leaders generally will
blame prohibition for this police scandal, but the proi
bit policy has been made the victim and is in no
party to the crime The wonder is that working
under such a handicap the law We'll enforced
is in Philadelphia Ev IDENTIFY it has not had chance

1t Can't Be Done

Governor Smith says ne favors the working out Of
q plan whereby state be dry while neighboring
states wet.
Why wasn't Mr.. Smith more specific as to how this
plan could be worked out? How would the liquor
traffic be confined within the borders of wet states?
Mr. Smith does not say. He couldn't II was tried
out for twenty-five years. but the liquor inter-
csts, for whom Smith has always voted, defeated it
at every turn because they could make coolies of
money from sales of booze in dry territory.
Moreover, the people of the United States who are
interested in law enforcement will receive with
miSgiyings any proposal on this question coming
from who, Speaker of the New York Legis-
lature, engineered the defeat Of the knight Bill,
against knowingly delivering liquor IN dry territory
except to bona jide conSignees.
Like BancoS ghost, Governor Smiths dripping
wet record will not down. 1t continues to rise no to
contradict ridicule, and haunt him every time he
makes an utterance on the liquor question.

Michigan's "Habitual Criminal Act

on September % in Lansing, Michigan Judge Carr
circuit court sentenced a 21-year-od to life i'm
prisonment upon being convicted of stealing
bile which constituted his fourth felony.
Now what will the wet press say about this case?
Everyone knows what they would say had he been
vcted and sentenced for committing fourth felony had
that felony been q violation Of the prohibition law.
There have been at least two habitua criminals sent to
prison for life in Michigan whose fourth felony vio
lation OF the prohibition law.
Perhaps lfer had many barrels OF tears shed
his behalf Gid the criminal who the first to
ceive life sentence his conviction of violating the
prohibition law which constituted ais fourth felony
The wet press featured the story under the head SO It
20 prison for life for possessing quart OF liquor There
was theme for wet editors to weep and they wep!
let them write editorials the fate Of this youth
who sent to prison for life for stealing autOmo-
bile" But let them be careful not to explain that it is
the fourth conviction charge OF felony, which IN the
state of Michigan makes the offender habitual ccn-
nal and carries the penalty Of life imprisonment.
VETS say prohibition cannot be enforced but when
officers round up dry law volatoTs and punish
them, what howl goes up from these same vets

A SERIOUS CRISIS

Shall Uncle Sam" become the worlds greatest SALOON
Keeper by re-engagng IN the beverage liquor traffic?
Does America want the President OF the United States to
become the chief bartender of the nation do his striped
suit, don bartenders apron and become the greatest
drunkard and criminal maker in the world?
The Smith program means just that, nothing less. Let
every citizen face the facts No good from
ceivng ourselves or huying head in the sand Gov
Smith threatens with fundamental changes" in
prohibition, meaning nothing else than the return OF
brewery disery, saloons in FORM and the liquor
be dispensed by the government And preachers may
be forced to tend bar bankers wash cusdores highups
mop down saloon oors children carry the fun beer
pail in one hand and the empty dinner pail in the other
We have not failed to cry aloud and spare not"
gardig the danger that threatens If the vets do not
put across it is simply because they could not all
ys viii go the polls early to vote and take their dry
voter friends with he and that they all vote for
HOOVER, ELECTORS, matter how they vote the
balance Of their ticket, this calamity OF the return Of
liQuor can be averted.

It's touching to witness the deep concern certain
politicians have for the purity of the Church and
the successful functioning of the ministers. Some
politicians have suddenly come to the conviction
that the ministers and the churches need wise cou
sci lest religion be utterly wrecked by preachers who
taking interest in and telling their people
about politics. Why is the country loudly warned
against the evils of politics in the churches? Let
me tell you
few years back tie politicians had things much
their own way The saloon political headquar-
ters for many of them. In the saloons they Matched
they rallied their forces and picked their candidates
Conditions got bad The cities were mostly under
the control of the saloons Many liquor sellers were

The League is CornpLignented

Senator Edwards of New Jersey contributes article
10 the November number Of Plain Tdlk. Edwards the
country knows, is the wettest member of the United
States Senate. He himself says he is as wet as the
Atlantic Ocean"
His magazine article is devoted to the Anti-Saoon
League, which he charges with corruption rbery and
fraud but is content with making the charges and gives
no proof. Edwards wrath towards the League has
reached the boiling point because the League opposing
the election Of Al Smith. Edwards closes his TRADE
against the League with tins paragraph:
How much longer are we going to stand for it?
Another four years? Another eight years? For
everp The answer lies with the people Of the United
States of America One thing can answer That
is that anyone who supports the Arti-Saloon
League, either with money with spiritual well
wishes, is either bgot or a d fool.
The League thanks Senator Edwards. Condemnation
from such source is the highest kind of compli

ISSUE LIQUOR, NOT RELIGION

The charge that the Anti-Saloon League is opposing
Governor Smith account of his religion is absolutely
false Never in its thrtyye years of fighting against
liquor traffic has the ArtiSaoon League opposed any
candidate because he Catholic. The League has
repeatedly supported CRY Catholics when their opponents
were wet Protestants.
Recent declarations by Smiths supporters that the
dryS fighting him because OF his religion part OF
the campaign to distract attention from Smiths weness.
They trying hide their indeensibe fight for booze
under the respectable cloak OF appeal for religious
liberty The religious has been and is being raised
by Smiths friends and by the drys They hope to-
win the OF dry Catholics in spite of Smiths wetnesS
and Of dry PrQestants the ground OF religious liberty.
