TABER ACCEPTS
WET CHALLENGE
Grange Master Points to
Morrow Election as Call
to Action.
By the Associated Press.

Pointing to the recent New JERSEY
primary as "a clarion cali to action, .
Louis j.. Taber Of Columbus. Ohio, mas
ter of the National Grange, said yes
terday the dry forces would accept the
challenge of repeal with the return
of the saloon" as opposed to the "eight-
zenith amendment and prohibition"
Speaking over a national hook-up of
the National Broadcasting Co., Taber
said Dwight W. Morrow, the Republican
nominee in New Jersey. but takes the
place of another Senator who favored
repeal"
THE ability of the candidate and the
fact that his son-in-law is the most
popular young man in America added
to the vote Of an already wet State, "
he said.
Issue Is Defined Clearly.
"He should rejoice that the new SEN
ator stands for repeal rather than null
lifcation. The issue is unnlistakable
The challenge will be accepted by the
dry forces. On the one hand, we have
repeal with the return of the saloon
amendment and prohibition.
Repeal never will come If the Amer
ican people recognize that with the
eighteenth amendment out of the Con-
stitution permission will be given to
sell intoxicating liquors. When intoxi-
eating liquors are sold, by whatever
method or in whatever form, in prac-
tice the saloon will reappear.
Intelligent America never will per-
nit this TO happen. Civilization and
progress banished the saloon. The
economic forces of modern life de-
cree that it cannot return. Speed.
progress, scientific discovery and con-
gestion of population are factors and
forces combining to prevent the return
Of the waSteful and destructive liquor
business"
Taber said the passing of the saloon
had made possible the growth of high
ways, the savings of billions of dol
lars yearly which formerly were spent
for liquor. He cited the number of
automobiles owned, life insurance, saw
ings banks accounts. home owners and
an increased consumption of farm
products as evidences of the worth
of prohibition.
Cites Social and Moral Gains.
Our greatest gains are social and
moral" he said. The health of the
individual has improved, the number
Of children graduating from the eighth

yates have multiplied and college grad
