AL Smith SPEAKS
MIND ON DRY LAW
New Yorker Draws Sharp Line
Between Policy Discussion
and Adoption

Washington, March 4. - R
sharp line drawn by Alfred e. Smith
between discussion and adoption Of
policy gave food for thought Wednes-
day to the Democrats who fear prohi-
bition will be brought up before
Thursdays session of the party ma
tional committee.
The Democrats, said the 1928 prdsi-
Dental candidate Tuesday. might as
well give up and join the Republicans
IL they are afraid to discuss all
public questions"
Earlier he had expressed the opin-
ion that policy-forming was not with
in the sphere of the committee but q
task for the national convention.
This had allayed somewhat the wide
spread protest over runlors that
Chairman Raskob would bring up the
wet-dry issue.
Smiths latest statement was seized
upon by political observers to back up
q prediction that fireworks might be
set off in the Garden room Of the
Mayflower hotel some time around
noon Thursday.

BLAZE STARTED BY
BLAST AT LEH|GH
BR|QUET FACTORY
Three Oil Tanks Take Fire and
Two Others Threatened;
Plant Not in Danger
Tribune Special Seryicel

Dickinson, N. D., March 4.-Three
oil tanks at the plant Of the Lehigh
Briquetting company, east of here,
were on fire Wednesday afternoon.
Two others were in danger and the
flames already had destroyed q bath
house, used by men at the plant.
This structure also housed a dining
room and garage.
The main buildings at the plant
were not In immediate danger, since
a southeast wind was blowing the
flames in the opposite direction.
The tanks, Of 10000 gallons Ca
pacity each, were used to store oil
taken from the Ignite In the briquet-
ting process.
The fire started when a blaze was
built under one tank to heat the oil.
The tank was closed and the expand
ing oil caused 1t to explode and catch
fire.
Holes were shot into the other
tanks to keep them from bursting
when they also were expanded by
the heat. Oil from these tanks
leaked out onto the ground, where it
also caught fire.
A structure used to house dynamite
was destroyed but workmen removed
the dynamite before it could explode.
The Dickinson fire department was
aiding in fighting the flames.
