Washington. July 9 R>-The Methodist board of temperance, pro- hibition and public morals, in its latest publicity "clip sheet" gives its interpretation of the much discuss ed reference to modification" of the prohibition laws in the letter of George w. Wickersham. chairman Of President Hoovers law enforce ment commission. read at the recent governors conference.
 In that letter, addressed to Gov trnor Roosevelt of New York, the commission chairman suggested that enforcement responsibility be defi- nitely divided between the federal and state governments and that, if this were done, national and state laws might be modified so as to be- come reasonable and cnforccable.'
 Choice of Word unfortunate"
 "Mr Wickersham. the Methodist board says, makes use of the un- fortunate modification in a para graph which seems to suggest an ad- iustment of state and federal statutes for the purpose of facilitat- ing cooperation in enforcement. h. terpretation of modification 10 imply that state laws may be en- acted which in fact legalizes al- cohol content in beverages prohib- tied by the federal constitution. is We believe, an entirely mistaken one.
 "A standard must he set up and naturally it must be established by the federal authority. It is so es- tablished. and it is now essential that all of the states should manifest good faith in conforming to this standard in lending the entire assis- tance of the state organization to enforcement"

 The Americans took prompt ac- ton after the courts decision Satur- day by sending mechanics 10 cut off Western Electric apparatus in all theaters where it was being used. thus forcing the return of box office money for the crowded week end performances.
 Some of the German press calls the result 'catastrophic" for the German movie going public. Several well known pictures are closing down. while several others will con- tinue as silent films. The American interests said they could not permit the use of their machinery a moment after the court decision. since viola tion of an injunction is a criminal offense in Germany.
 Final decision on a patent in Engagement suit now pending be- tween klang Film Tobis and Warner BrothersW Western Electric is not ex- pected before one or two yoars when the case come up for trial.

Felix TarasiewicZ Of 262 High street complained 10 Captain Kelly yesterday afternoon that his son-in- law, Charles koslowski of Newing- ton, would not tell him where his daughter, kosloWski's wife is. He was much veXed because Koslowslli had answered the question by telling him, That's none of your business"
 TarasiewiCZ refused to believe that Captain Kelly was not joshing him when he told him that koslowski was to all intents and purposes, within his rights when he thus an- swered the question.
 Your son-in-law owns your daughter now. He doesn't have to tell you where she is if he does not want to-" Captain Kelly told the sur prised parent,
 He went on to explain that Kos lowski could be forced to tell if some complaint had come from the daugh- ter as to his treatment of her or if she had offered some other grounds of complaint, but the father could not think of any complaint having come from her.

Methodist Board of Temperance
 Comments On Wickersham Letter;
 Word Modification Is Unfortunate
Publicity Clip Sheet Says Suggestions That States Cooperate In Enforcing Law Always Was
 Drys' Idea of Best Method.

ing certain suggestions in regard to the enforcement of the prohibition laws which seem to have been con- sidered sensational, the board re lates.
 Tn brief, Mir. Wickersham sug- gested. CD Enactment in all the states of probition enforcement laws, and CD 4 recognized definition of federal and state responsibilities in prohibition enforcement. with the federal government limiting it's ac- tivities to a discharge of purely fed eral functions and the states doing the detail police and judicial work necessary for the suppression of the illegal retail liquor trade.
 "The board of temperance, pro- hibition and public morals of the Methodist Episcopal church.the other dry organizations and leaders have consistently recognized the division between the federal government and the states, of responsibility in regard to prohibition enforcement, a divi sion which is clearly and naturally indicated by our form of govern ment."
 Should Not Surrender
 Tn our opinion it will be desir able that the federal government should surrender it's liberty of act ion, Even now, citizens in consider able numbers complain that they are not receiving from their local and state police the protection that they are entitled to under the federal con- stitution. In such cases, where the rights of citizens to security from of the liquor traffic are ignored. the federal government has the unpleasant duty to intervene. but it is in all cases an unfortunate ne cessity and greatly to be deplored.
 The statement says it is not at once apparent" why the enforcement commission chairman'S suggestion should be considered revolution sry"
