No Compromise Is UIti-

Forces to Both Parties.
DEMAND POSITIVE STAND
Delegates From 81 Groups
Agree to Fight Any
Hedging on Issues.

By LHited Press
WASHINGTON. Feb. 28.-Repre-
SentativeS of thirty-one organiza-
tions headed by the Anti-Saloon
League and the Methodist Temper
ance Board met here today to unite
in telling the Republican and Demo-
cratic parties this:
you must either write bone-dry
planks in your platform this year or
suffer our opposition
1t was planned also to submit
notice to both parties that not only
their presidential but their vice
presidential candidates as we'll, must
be dry, so that neither group might
attempt an ION the fence" ticket of
dry for President and a wet for
vice president.
Deets Pickett of the Methodist
Temperance Board was in the chair
as the meeting opened. He recent
ly urged church men to support the
dry declarations because, he warned,
if one party writes a wet plank or
nominates a wet, and the other
party hedges on the question, the
wet party will win.
Various of the thirty-one organ
izations represented today already
have passed resolutions demanding
dry planks. But the resolutions diff
fered in wording, and leaders sug-
geSted thirty-one hard blows on the
same spot until the iron is hot"
Pickett sounded the keynote Of
the gathering by declaring the
friends of prohibition demand
positive declarations" on the dry
issue in party platforms.
Addressing the more than 400
present, Pickett declared the drys
will strive to defeat office seekers
who are either negative or silent" ="
"We call upon the American peo-
pie to repudiate all State and ma
tional party platforms that deal
only in glittering generalities with
law enforcement. We will oppose
and vote against candidates in all
parties whose promises are fair and
dry, but whose official perform
anceS are wet
Or. Clarence True Wilson Of The
Methodist tenn n ance board
launched what was regarded as a
yelled attack against the candi-
dacy of AL Smith, without men,
tioning Smith by name, because, he
said. Ito attack this man or any
candidate openly might lead to
greater support from the opposi-
ton"
