LINDSAY AVOIDING
rum CONTROVERSY
British Envoy Merely Ac-
knoWIedges Receipt of En-
bassy Liquor Protests.

It was indicated today that Sir Ron
aid Lindsay. the British Ambassador.
would not commit himself against
further Importation of liquors as did
his predecessor, Sir Esme Howard.
The reaction of the British embassy
10 a letter protesting against the prac-
tice. written by Samuel b. Woods, Vir-
ginia dry and former mayor of Char
lottesville, was to acknowledge receipt
of the letter, but not discuss the issue
presented by Mr.. Woods demand that
Sir Ronald follow Sir Esmes example.
Shortly after his arrival in Wash
ington, Sir Ronald, in answer to ques-
tions. indicated the opinion that de-
cision on the importation of liquors was
q matter for the individual foreign
representative to settle. Later. ship
nnent of liquors was made to the en-
bassy It was said today that other
drys have written similar letters to the

has been to ignore the subject OF

some embassies. not your own, have
gone a step further In disrespect and
contempt of our laws, by selling their
immune liquor. Truly, the quality of
international courtesy is strained; 1t
droppeth all consideration for the laws
Of other peoples.
THAT rum in this Nation is now
fighting in its last trench is shown by
the millions 1t is now spending: by
the false propaganda it is scattering;
the great noise being made, and by the
much advertisement of demands for re-
peal from those who have always OPP
posed prohibition and who live in our
foreign cities and States
THE mass of our people, the great
majority of the citizens of the United
States, believe in prohibition and in its
power TO save men and elevate the race.
They know that, though its administra-
ton has been too much in the hands
of its enemies. 1t has greatly reduced
the use of liquor and done, and is do
ing, much good Throughout the land.
Where it has mostly failed. as in New
York and Chicago, 1t is because officials
have been false to their oaths of Office.
1t is worthy of note that the great wet
spots in the United States are the great
crime spots of our land"

vIRGINIAN WRITES ENVOY.
Use of Liquor at British Embassy
Strongly Opposed.

Special Dispatch to The Star.
CHARLOTTESVILLE Va, July 90
Sir Ronald Lindsay British AmbasSa-
dor to the United States. is showing
contempt and disreSpect for the laws
of the United States in his decision to
import liquor for the embaSsy's use, in
the opinion of Samuel B. Woods. for
mer Mayor of Charlottesville and now
a prominent farmer of Albemarle
County.
Mr.. Woods, in a letter to the British
Ambassador. accuses that dignitary of
using the immunity of his Office and a
technically of the law of the United
States to do what would be a crime for
any citizen of this country.
The letter is similar to one written in
May, 1929, by James T. Carter of
Lynchburg, an ardent prohibitionist, to
Sir Esme Howard, Sir Ronalds prede-
cessor, to which Sir Esme, in reply, ex-
pressed willingness to waive the diplo-
matte liquor privilege and subsequently
made personal decision" to sign no
more liquor permits for himself or for
the embassy. The decision of Sir Esme
was purely a personal one, other mem
berS of the embassy staff continuing to
import liquor supplies.
Cites Sir Esme's Stand.
Mr.. Woods wrote:
You have been willing to take adj
vantage Of technicality and of the
Immunity of your Office TO do yourself
what would be a crime for a citizen
OF the United States to do. Whether
Dou intend 1t or not, you show dis
respect for the Constitution and con-
tempt for the laws of our Nation to
which you have been accredited as a
diplomat"
The action of Sir Esme is one of the
reasons for his writing, Mr.. Woods
declares, stating:
You have not followed the noble ex-
ample of Gen. Foch when in our coun-
try; you are doing much to weaken the
friendship OF the United States for
Great Britain, which Sir Esme Howard
and the recent action of Canada have
strengthened. You are wounding and
estranging Englands best friends and
delighting those who seem by nature to
be her enemies, the foreigners and near
foreigners in our midst and the wet
politicians seeking their votes.
You are encouraging those who for
fear of this foreign vote are delaying
and trying to defeat the treaty just
tentatively agreed on between our ma
tons.
You may or may not have heard
Of Big Bill of Chicago and his cohorts
and their war against King George
and history. Nor of such actions as
the attack upon the Union League
Club because on its building the flag
of Great Britain was displayed beside
that of the United States. This spirit
still lives in a considerable element
who, joined to minority clamoring
for liquor, constitute such another
whisky rebellion as George Washing
ton, when President, called out the
troops to put down.

A Needed Operation.

TT wouldn't be a bad idea If some
famous surgeon could take out
Johnny Riskos heart and plant the
same in the breast of some of our lead
ing heavyweights. He is no champion,
but he has heart enough for two.
Johnny did not beat Campolo on
Monday night by several laps, but at
least he forced most of the lighting
against a man who was inches taller.
80 pounds heavier, faster on his feet,
a better boxer and a harder puncher.
This is no light handicap to face on
the charge, but Risko kept charging.
If Campolo had Risko's aggressive
ness the South American would have a
great shot at the main title. He has
improved his technique, but at the
same time has lost part Of his earlier
offense. Unless he can get that back
Campolo isn't going anywhere either.
He won at least six or seven rounds
from Risko, which about. entities him
to an even break in the two 10-round
parties. Risko won a decision from
the tall boy and got a draw and then
the Cleveland baker lost decision
and got "a win.
Any one who can figure out this
highly tangled method of refereeing
or judging can tell DR.. Einstein where
to get of.

Rockies Are Going Home
As TGDirlers Curve EN-
BY WALTER TRUNfBULL.

March isn't the only thing which
comes In like lion and goes out like
q lamb. There is the base ball rookie.
The first OF March the boys are
all writing stuff concerning the new
star, who is going to grab the vet
Grams job. The last of March the
managers are announcing that they
will stand pat on the old lineup.
1t isn't question of discrimina-
ton. All rookie has to do, for
example, to crowd Ruth out of the
picture is to hit more home runs
than the Babe. But it is likely that
Ruth still will be found in the bat
ting order, and so will most of the
other experienced players. The
pitchers are beginning to throw
curves and the rockies viii soon be
home.
There are, of course, q few new
men each season who stick. These
are the best of a large boiling. There
might be more except for the fact
that the best rockies frequently are
secured by the strongest clubs, which
have no places vacant for them.
