 This Is the largest organized raid ever attempted on our country's treasury. It must fail; for when the demand for an immediate pay ment of the bonus goes - to quote Alfred E.

.COmbellack to
 Decide Case Reports Tomorrow on Grant-OlsOn Dif-
 ferenCes

Whether the alleged non-pay- nient of wages or a board bill is the basis of disagreement be- tween James Grant, A, of 53 Ab- bolt avenue and Otto Olson, for mer employe and ex-friend of Grants is question to be decided by arbitration. Probation Officer Nicholas Combellack was assigned today by Judge John F. McGratf to investigate the claims of both men and to submit a recommends tion tomorrow morning. Grant was arrested on Olson's complaint the latter alleging that he worked as a painter for the accused, but failed to receive his promised wages of $35.
 It developed, however, that Ol- son, according to MT and Mrs Grant owned them just $35 for boarding at their home. Mrs Grant remembered serving Olson several meals.
 Olson declares that he did not board at the Grant home and that the counter claim of $35 was brought to offset his petition fol his wages.
 Judge McGrath after hearing some of the conflicting testimony decided that the matter was one for Probation Officer Combellack to handle.
 Continuance until October 9th was granted in the cases of Lebc Ricci, 29, of 154 Orange street Thomas Wheeler, 27, of 110 Cherry street and Peter Russo, 27, of 154 Orange street, charged with breach of the peace.

 Washington, Sept 28-(UP)- One of the first acts of Jouett Shouse as president of the Asso- citation Against the Prohibition Amendment was to announce that the organization would oppose William G.

Shouse was one of the chief lieutenants In organizing McAdoo's campaigns for the presidential nomination in 1920 and 1924. After that they broke.

News SerVlCeD,
CHICAGO, June "a (IN.S.).
Former Senator James A.
Reed of Missouri, a contestant
for the Democratic presidential
nomination, and Clarence Oar
row, criminal lawyer, agreed
today that Congress should i'm
mediately repeal the Volstead
act, turning prohibition en-
forcement instantly back to
the States 'lnder the
Eighteenth Amendment.
Reed and Darrow disclosed their
views of the prohibition problem
to each other during an unofficial
debate in the former Senator's
apartment here.
Can't Be Enforced
An International News Service
reporter was a member of the
privileged audience.
The debate" follows:
REED-"Clarence, that was
great speech you made against
prohibition down in Kansas
City. I'll never forget one
pungent statement you made.
You said there was one thing
about prohibition you liked
1t couldn't be enforced"
DARROW-"Well, it cant be.
What do you think we ought
to do about it?'?"
LONG PROCESS CITED
DARROW-"But Senator, it
will take 40 or so years to get
1t out Of the Constitution"
REED-"I don't agree with
you, Clarence. I think it's
possible. Now, if the Demo
cratic party would adopt a
real plank, advocating States
rights as the prty has upheld
that doctrine from the days of
Thomas jefferson down to
adoption of the Eighteenth

lem of liquor control directly

remained-we can repeal it."
DARROW-"Well, it can't be.
right. But. what can we do
In the meantime? have
advocated immediate repeal of
the VOlStead Act. If Congress
did that and refused to apprO-
pirate any more money for
enforcement. the nrOhIeTn would
be returned to the States. The
Federal Government isn't under
any obligation to enforce law
that can't be enforced"
NEGATIVE ENFORCEMENT
REED-"Of course, if Con-
gress repealed the VOIstead act,
the whole ueStiOn of the con-
troll of liquor would be thrown
back into the laps of the States.
The States could obtain revenue
by adopting a sort of negative
enforcement act.
"TO illustrate, Iowa passed
law imposing a fine of $1,000
every 80 days for violations of
the prohibition law. That law
did not recognize the validity of
the business. But it permitted
regulation of the liquor traffic
and got revenue fO~ the State"
