THE COUNTRY Is AGAINST THE
VOLSTEAD ACT.

There is one with particle of knowledge
of the status of public sentiment that does not
know that no Presidential candidate running
platform endorsing the Eighteenth Amend
ment and the Volstead Act, and known to be
intellectually in favor Of the platform could
be elected President. The Republicans are pre-
pairing to dodge the issue they did at Cleve-
land and many Democratic leaders ready to
straddle it in their platform they did at Madi-
son Square Garden.
However, Senator Simmons charged, with
Gov. Smith as the Democratic nominee large
part of the Democratic appeal to the voters
throughout the country will be based upon the
iniquties and absurdities of the Volstead Act
and the encroachment upon State rights and
personal liberties in National Prohibition and
the Volstead Act itself
No matter how the political leaders might
attempt to avoid them, State rights and Pro-
hibition will be issues in the coming campaign
If either party takes straight out Prohibition
position in the campaign it is certain any
thing is sure that it will meet with disaster at
the polls.

J. p. MORGAN SERVES ON GRAND
JURY.

j. T. Morgan, probably Americas greatest
hnancier, was caught by the server of subpoena
the other day, and became member of the
Nassau County, New York, Grand Jury. He
served as an ordinary citizen, but his presence
seemed to hurry things up. Anyhow. the jury
completed all its work, investigated a round
dozen cases, made its findings and report and
was discharged in time for Mr.. Morgan to reach
his Wall Street office before of the first
day of the term. He took his check for $5.12
but, it is said, got more from the experience
than from the per diem and mileage
If Grand Juries and other branches of the
judicial system worked with that sort of energy
there would probably be less talk about wasted
time. However, the results might not be SO
satisfactory.
