Whether or not the end of prohibition as national policy ta actually any nearer to-day than it was in 1920 is something that only ttme-and, possibly. the com ing eIection-can tell.
 One thing. though, is obvious: the tactics of both the vets and the drys have changed profoundly in the last few years.
 ' As has been seen, prohibition went into effect with hardly a dis senting vote, aside from the {. piaintive cries of the brewers and distillers' associations. No prominent political leader lifted party even suggested that the , question of repeal or modification !. was worth debating.
 Tn 1924 there was no wet-dry issue in the presidential cam paign. The way in which the ! smith McAdoo cohorts cut one :. ..another's throats at Madison Square Garden saw to that. In 1928. both parties had dry platforms, but one candidate was generally recognized as dry while the other was generally Recognized as wet.
 Since then things have hap pened fast. Witness the 1882 { -democratic and republican plat forms. 4
 Wet Program Shaped
 No longer are the vets simply demanding a change. They are getting down to cases now and off, fering specific suggestions as to the way in which a change should be brought about. They are &C., tually passing their policy on the assumption that something is going tp be done about prohibition and that the chief problem now is that of how and what.
 At the same time, in some sec- tions of the dry camp a change in strategy has become apparent.
 Until very recently, no friend of prohibition would consent to any proposal that the amendment be submitted to any kind of vote.
 Lately, however. many dry leaders (though by no means all of them) have frankly stated their desire to have a new vote on the subject. Some of them, as devoutly in favor of prohibi- tion as ever, have urged that a national referendum on the ques- tion be held so that 1t can be set tied, one way or another, for good. Confident that a majority of the citizens still are "sold" on . prohibition, they are prepared to welcome a test vote.
 It is about the ways and means of holding such a vote that much of the discussion today is cen- tering.
 Procedure in Doubt
 The most obvious way, per- hape, is to have the vets try to set prohibition out of the con- stitution in the same way that the drys got 1t In-by constitution Rl amendment.
 One school urges that congress -simply pass and submit to the states for ratification a straight out repeal of the 18th amend s1Qent.ss This demand Is contained In the democratic platform. V Advocates of this measure spoint out that even if the amend sment were repealed, the old, pre- s191S state prohibition laws would sremain in force. In states which nevor went dry, the old license Flaws would remain. States that

HOOVER FAVORS
NEW PEACE"
TREATIES

President Hoover favors revi-
sion of the Versailles and other
peace" treaties signed at the
close of the world war.
This fact, intimated by the
President in one short but out
spoken sentence of his acceptance
speech, was confirmed by his close
friends and political advisors
today.
Hoover feels, these sources de-
clared, that the peace" treaties
have brought anything but peace
to Europe and the rest of the
world. and also that they have
presented formidable obstacles to
the political and economic reStora-
ton of Europe.
The President indicated the
warmth of his feeling on this sub
ject by the statement in his
speech that poisoned springs of
political instability lay in the
treaties which closed the war;
fears and hates held ornaments
to double those of before the great
conflict"
This was the first authoritative
pronouncement on peace treaties
by the Hoover administration
Heretofore all officials had been
exceedingly cautious in comment
on these treaties. Generally they
refused to discuss the treaties at
all.

NORTHAMPTON, Mass, Nov. B. Former President Calvin Coolidge, speaking in advocacy of the re- election of President Hoover, de- signated him as heading the list of five great Americans. That in all our history America has never de- serted a President on account of material Welfare-money.
 CONFUSING ISSUE
 We may be somewhat confused by the issues which have been drawn into this campaign" MT. Coolidge continued. but the prob lems are far to serious for one who smiles and amuses us to assume the presidency of this nation; we cannot afford to experiment.
 Measured by his accomplish mentS, President Hoover holds a commanding rank There can be no doubt as to where his interests lay; he will safeguard our interests and he has demonstrated by his acts his clear understanding of our many problems.
 NATION NEEDS HOOVER
 We need President Hoover be- cause he has faith and courage to meet every problem without eva sion. We shall recover by the usual long, slow progress of work ing, saving and paying our debts. The people are convinced he is right, where in contrast, the oppo- sition has made only vague and weak proposals.
 T have taken this opportunity to speak because want my country men to know what I think. The captain of our ship has guided us safely through the storm to port, and it is notime to discharge him because he is charged with creat- ing that storm. Herbert Hoover is the man for this emergency"
