WALCOTT'S SPEECH
 SHOCKS THE DRYS
Connecticut Senator's Utter ances Looked Upon as Hav-
 ing Presidents Endorsement
Closer 10 Mir. Hoover Than Any
 Other Man

When the speech of Senator Fred erie Walcott reached Washington in which the senator termed prohibition as intolerable but expressed eonfid- ence that the present administration would take the correct action 1t brought with it a distinct shock to certain drys who have been confid- end that President Hoover was with them.
 Senator Walcott is regarded as be- ing closer to the president than any other man in Washington. He is thought to be the Presidents spokes- man in the senate. and when he talks large part of Washington gets the idea that what he says has the ap- proval of the Chief Executive.
 Hence. there were numerous audi ble gasps of pain as well as expres- sions of pleasure when Senator Wal cott's remarks on the prohibition is- sue reached the Capital.
 The Washington Post, in a front page story, called attention to Wal eott's speech under the headlines 'sWaleott statement seen as possible forerunner of rum policy shift The special writer of the Post then con tinued by telling how expressions from Waleott are looked upon as having the endorsement of Mir. Hoover.
 Personal Friends
 Coming from Senator Waleott, the statement. while t may have been purely political. should not have been buried beneath the prima- ry results or other states. because while men are frequently referred to as close friends of the President, Senator Walcott is really one" the Post comments. "He is now living in the Presidents street house. He Is one of those friends that the Presi- dent really likes to have come to the White House. They are long-stand- ing personal friends. It is quite probable that the President thinks out loud before him as he does be- fore no other senator.
 "The drys will say that the Gonnec ticut republicans named a dry guber natorial candidate at this convention, but they also adopted a wet plank. one that would fit right in with the dry candidate, a plank calling for the return of liquor control to the states. It is sort of a highbrowed, New England Yankee way of being wet"

Welcome to Fidac!

Born of war, F'idac-Federation In
teraliee deS Anciens Combattants.-has
grown strong and prospered in its aim
Of establishing and preserving peace
among the nations Of the world. Twelve
years after the idea Of the organization
was first presented its delegates are
meeting in Washington today. repre-
Ienting some nine millions Of veterans
# the World War who fought under
the flags OF the allies. The growth Of
she organization has been no less re-
narkable than its ability 10 keep be-
fore 1t q single objective, and the ten
annual congresses that have preceded
This eleventh meeting in Washington
Today have been for the purpose Of re-
newing the pledges Of mutual UNDER
standing among these men and women
who took part in the war to end wars"
and to advance the ideal OF worldwide
peace. Ffdac has Steadfastly Stunned
The dangers that beset organizations Of
the kind. 1t has kept away from po-
litical discussion, from sectarian domi-
nation Of one sort or another and has
conferred its aims within the sphere
that affects the men who bore arms
Naturally, the cause Of peace con-
tinues to dominate their discussions
The ideal which found expression in
he organization of Fidac was that the
peace of the world could be left in no
safer hands than in those OF the men
who made peace possible.
In a recent letter Gen. John j. Per-
shing expressed his satisfaction that the
years since the armistice have not
dampened the enthusiasm and the fine
spirit Of the veteran members of Fidae
but that they are still marching for
ward shoulder TO shoulder as they did
in those war-torn days" After all, the
greatest problem that lies ahead of the
organizations that form Fidac Is to keep
this enthusiasm alive. War loses its
horrors in retrospect, and time tends to
deaden the sentiment that rises strong
against 1t as the first reaction. The
next ten years will test the mettle OF
these vetersns-a greater test, perhaps,
than the one from which they emerged
on the battlefelds Of France. WASH
ington Is honored By their presence
today.

Enterprise automatically became winner
yesterday when Shamrock v was GRIP
pied.
The gear Of q yacht is as much a
part OF her rs q racing machine as her
hull, her spars and her sails. If any
part breaks defeat follows. If q sail
is ripped the yacht becomes an inert
thing on the sea. If Q spar cracks or
crumples she stops. II her body Is
strained by the stress Of her canvas
and springs q leak she is handicapped
to the point Of loss. Just so when a
halyard snaps she is beaten. The rae
ing capacity Of the yacht Il measured
by the strength Of her weakest mem
Der. With all the precautions pos
sible, a flaw may develop in some part
of the craft. Calculations Of strains
may have been inaccurate. In this in
stance Shamrock was meeting some
what stiff breeze for the first time in
the contest. 1t may be that the weak
spot in the wire rope was waiting
fo- just the pound too much Of strain
to yield and cause the loss of the race.

shamrock's Accident.

BY . mechanical mishap Shamrock v

successive time in the international
yachting contest for the Americas Cup.
In the first quarter Of the race, while
she held the most advantageous position
she had enjoyed in any Of the events,
her main halyard, steel cable three
quarters Of an inch in thickness, snap
ped and let her mainsail down. This
break could not be repaired at once, and
Of course, the yacht, thus deprived Of
her chief sail, had to drop out Of the
race. Enterprise was at first put about,
as II TO yield the advantage and cancel
the race, but reconsideration caused her
to be Strengthened of again upon the
course and she completed the thirty
mile run, unconteSted. and thus won a
hollow victory, the third in the series,
leaving only one more race to be won
for a final triumph That fourth race
may be won today.

Americas water supply Problem

Warning is issued by the Public
Health Service to the residents of the
sections which have been most seriously
affected by the drought this Summer
that there is grave danger Of the spread
of disease due to the shortage Of water
supply. Not only has there been q de-
ficiency Of water for drinking but the
lack OF moisture has affected the quail
ity OF foodstuffs, and diseases due to
the arrangement Of dietary systems may
develop. Indeed in some parts Of the
country already there have been out
breaks Of typhoid and pellagra. the
latter being particularly feared by the
Public Health Service.
Were 1t not for the establishment Of
filtration system In washington the
District OF Columbia would have been
very greatly concerned over the posi-
bility OF disease, particularly typhoid
prevailing in consequences of the low
waters OF this season. As 1t 10, IN some
parts Of the surrounding territory not
served with uttered water in public
supply much illness from this cause has
been suffered.
American communities are not as vel
served in the matter Of water supply
as they should be. In fact, very
grave danger constantly exists owing u
the possibility Of the contamination Of
water systems. In almost all instances
supply comes from surface drainage In
watersheds adjacent to towns ane
cities. The purest supply comes from
wells, and with the steady diminutior
Of the rivers owing TO deforestation anC
building the underground sources o

Member of the Associated Pres,


Thirty years ago La Toilette was
nominated by the Republicans of Wis
consin for the governorship Of the
State. He was three times elected to
that Office and finally resigned to take
Q seat I'm the United States Senate in
1905, seat which he continued to oc-
cupy until his death June 10, 1925 He
dug deep into the affections and the
faith Of the people Of Wisconsin. He

been dead for five years.
When Philip La Toilette, now NOM
mated for Governor and as good as
elected, announced his candidacy few
months ago, he declared that neither
he nor any other man was entitled tc

The inheritance of political power and
office. from father to son, went out OF
the picture In this country many, many
years ago.
Nevertheless, the memory Of the lats
Senator Robert M. La Toilette con-
tinues . powerful influence In wis
constn today. The nomination Of his
son Philip for Governor must be at
tributed in considerable part to the
regard with which the people remember
the father, just as the nomination OF
Senator Robert M. La Toilette, jr., in 1925
to succeed his father must be attributed
to the affection they bore the senior
La Toilette. But Senator Robert NJ
