Stanford University Sta
dunn, Calf, Aug. 13.-(AP)
Herbert Hoover accepted the
Republican presidential nom-
ination Saturday with a reiter-
alton Of his stand against re-
peal Of the prohibition amend
ment or any modification of
enforcement that would con-
stitute notification, and with
the exposition Of a three-fold
agricultural relief program.
The nominee repeated that
he stands for "the efficient
enforcement" of the laws en-
acted under the prohibition
amendment and added that
whoever is chosen president
has under his oath the solemn
duty to pursue this course"
For relief If the farmer he out
lined a program embracing tariff
protection and increased and cheaper
transportation supported by federal
financial aid N building up farmer
owned and controlled corporations to
take care Of crop surpluses.
In addition he declared Mgour-
ously for religious tolerance; in
weighed against corruption in public
office; struck q note Of idealism in
the relation of government to the
people and issued q call to the
women and tn, youth Of the country
to concentrate their enthusiasm to
the success Of the American expert
ment in democracy.
Hoover outlined his stand on pro-
tibition without making direct refer
3nce to Alfred E. Smith, his Demo-
ratio opponent or to the New York
governors declaration for liberaliza-
tion Of the volstead enforcement
act.
Modification Of the enforcement
laws which would permit that which
the constitution forbids is null;fica-
tion," he said. "This the American
people will not countenance."
Reiterating that he did not favor
repeal Of the 18th amendment, the
Republican nominee said no one was
to be criticized for seeking to change
the constitution by lawful means,
but added that the Republican party
denied the right Of anyone to seek
to destroy the purpose Of the con-
stitution by indirection.
Recognizing the abuses Of en-
forcement under existing enabling
acts, Hoover said these must be
remedied after "an organized
searching Investigation Of facts and
causes" had pointed the way to the
wise method Of correcting them.

Even with the airmail regularly COM
ing through Washington at night and
the leasing Of the tip Of Hains Point
for q terminal for . fast water-routk
air service to New York and Norfolk
there is no lessening of the need in
the National Capital Of 4 large ana well
equipped municipal airport. The zeal
displayed by private enterprises in put
ting washington on the air map has
led some persons to believe that the
burden Of the airport project could
we'll be shifted to commercial COM
panies, but, as matter Of fact, the
activity in the sky In and Around the
National Capital simply furnishes q
more cogent reason for municipal par
ticipation. 1t naturally follows that the
more Washington is opened UP to the
network of air lines which will even-
tually spread throughout the country,
the more airninded will the residents
of this city become. and consequently
the demand for an airport befitting
the dignity OF the National Capital will
assume . volume which cannot be long
denied.
1t is for this reason that the lease
of Hams Point to the international
Airways, Incorporated, with the COM
pany paying four per cent Of Its net
earnings to the Government for the
privilege, is an important step in the
fight for a municipal airport. One of
the great dificulties Of trips by air to
the congested centers Of business viii
be overcome with the new service. Two
ho:.:... in present-day flights d al that
Is required to traverse the distance be-
tween New York and Washington, But
1t takes some twenty minutes to reach
the present local landing fleld and more
than an hour to get to downtown New
York from the terminal In New Jersey.
The new service will run on regular
schedule with six passenger planes
from HainS Point to q hArbor destina-
ton in New York, and 1t Is estimated
that at least one hour will be saved.
Washingtons municipal airport, when
it is finally constructed. should be ac-
cessible both to water and land. Ground
in large cities is too expensive to permit
its use solely for 1 landing field, and
ever city should take advantage Of
water facilities close at hand. Estab-
lishment of new air services in the
Capital, either with seaplanes or land
planes, is good augury, therefore. for
washington's model airport.

UNITED STATES
IN WORLD WAR
Ten Years Ago Today.

Onicial Washington Is much excited
over President Wilson's delay in an
nouncing the personnel Of the Amer
lean peace conference. Considerable
feeling is aroused among Senators Of
both parties over their understanding
that the President will not appoint any
member of the Senate. Senator Lodge
Is the logical choice aS the senior menu
ber Of the committee on foreign rela-
tions, but the President doesn't like him.
More than 10000 Americans are
engaged in the task of rebuilding the
railroads across no mans land north
east of Verdun. Mile after mile of
trackage has been destroyed by four
years constant shelling Twenty
four more German submarines surren-
der to the allied navy. bringing the total
to 81 U-boats. The U-130, which sank
l26 ships, is among them, but her COM
mander stayed at home. Polit-
1cal conditions in Germany are criti-
cal and the situatioQ becomes more
difncult and more dangerous every day
South Germany is disSat tisfled and the
Rhineland, fearing the Radicals, seems
headed for secession. It Is not
likely that the peace treaty will be
signed before March. There are many
things to be threshed out. Most press.
ing are the removal of economic bar
rierS, the freedom OF the seas, and the
matter Of compensation and repara-
tions. The armistice terms stand and
Marshal Foch is determined to give no

The Vestris Inquiry.

If there is any reflection of British
asked the parliamentary secretary of
the British Board of Trade by mem
Der Of Parliament it is deeply TO be re-
gretted. For the question asked dealt
with whether anything was being done
IN the Vestris inquiry TO protect the
good names Of the British sailors" The
speaker of the House of Commons ruled
the question improper. and the incident
was terminated. How gravely improper,
how sinisterly charged with that quality
of inconsidered malice which makes for
international misunderstanding, is pat
ent.
There is no evidence to support the
charge, whether made in the House of
Commons or by the British press. that
the Vestris inquiry in New York has
developed or demonstrated the slightest
anti-British animus. A great tragedy,
under circumstances calling for ex-
planation and with attendant factors
upon which the unsworn testimony Of
eyewitnesses was of a highly sensa-
tional nature, had occurred of the coast
of Virginia. The ship involved had
