Roosevelt URGES
7 STATEL|QUOR RULE
Means Relief for Economic
Situation, He Says in Buf-
faIo Address.
BY the Associated Press.

| BY the Associated Press.
! BUFFALO, N. Y, February 20.-
! Tying up two Of the current national
| problems, prohibition and the economic
situation, Gov. Roosevelt tonight as
serted in a speech here that State con-
( troll of liquor would solve one, and at
| the same time provide ample revenue
for State governments that desired to
! license the distribution of intoxicants.
In considering sources of revenue it
must not be forgotten that for several
years I have advocated return Of con-
troll over the sale of Intoxicating liquors
to the State" Mr. Roosevelt told a
cheering throng of Democrats at VIC
tory dinner.
II want to point out in that connec-
ton that those States which con-
trolled sale of any kind of Intoxicating
/ liquors would find for themselves q
large source of additional revenue"
Cheered by Hundreds.
Greeted as the next President by
several hundred diners, the Governor
plunged into a discussion of State
| finances, ridiculing the Republican,
controlled legislatures investigation Of
State departments to determine if ways
could be found to c'lt public costs.
The prohibition reference was the
Governors only allusion to national
subjects. 1t brought demonstration
from the crowd
Today was the first time Mr. Roose-
welt has visited the Western New York
metropolis since he became a candidate
for the Democratic presidential nomi-
nation.
The Governor was assured by Norman
E. Mack, national committeeman, and
George Zimmerman. Erie County
leader. and other party chiefs of this
section that he would have their sup
port in the selection Of delegates to the
Chicago convention. Buffalo has been
a strong supporter of former Governor
Smith, and until recently two factions,
one favorable to Roosevelt and the
other to Smith, fought for county con-
troll. The Roosevelt group won.
Before the dinner, at an interview,
Mr.. Roosevelt reiterated a Rochester
expression that there was an "extraor-
dinary friendship between himself and
Mr.. Smith He said reports of a rift
between the two cd friends was news
paper talk"
Attacks G. o. P. Leaders.
After a speech at Rochester, devoted
! to an attack upon Republican leaders,
| lUI ullldlI dIlO OC4IUGldCE tllll uIlIS IC-
garding his budget, Roosevelt renewed
and amplifed that criticism in the
Buffalo address.
Il welcome any suggestion for i'm
proving the State government and re-
ducing expenses" he said. The most
practical way is to employ men trained
in efficiency to look over the machinery.
The suggested legislative investigation
to bring that about is either insincere,
or is brought to bear for partisan OBJ
| jective."
He scoffed at the allegation of w.
Kingsland Macy, Republican State
chairman, that State costs under Mr..
Roosevelt had attained unprecedented
figures He referred to Macy and
others who support that claim as the
half truth brigade"
For instance" he added, 'the State
is trustee for State aid money and
last year returned $l02 100000 to cities
and counties for common schools. That
cannot be called State departmental
expense"

its provisions making it possible to OBJ
tain cash from the Federal Reserve on

count. The House set no limit.
1t was apparent yesterday that Presi-

ious that the Senate restriction be re-
moved. The President is frankly
pleased, however, at the form of the
bill and the speed with which It was
enacted.
