Hoover's Stand Believed
Wetter Than His Own
Party's Platform
Other netUS OF President
HooUer'S speech of acceptance
1DilI be found on Pages 5, s,
and II.
By GEORGE R. HOLMES

President Hoover is now
convinced that the "'noble ex-
pertinent" has failed and he
is willing to espouse a change
in the prohibition set-up that
will return the liquor problem
to the States--with Federal
safeguards against the return
of the saloon andA legal safe
guards for those States which
prefer to remain dry.
He made this clear in his
speech last nit accepting the
denomination for the presidency
"a speech which left the profes-
sional drys gasping for breath
and which constituted an olive
branch to the Republican vets
who have been talking mutiny.
Mr.. Hoover went further than
the Republican platform in ad-
vocating prohibition reform. The
platform merely proposed that
prohibition be re-submitted to the
people for an expression OF
opinion, without party recon-
mendation as to repeal or reten.
ton.
"Change is Necessary"
But Mr.. Hoover went further.
He said it was his conviction that
in order "to remedy present evils,
a change is necessary" and in
the exposition of that change
he continued:
'Tt is my conviction that the
nature of this change, and one
upon which all reasonable
people can find common
ground, Is that each State shall
be given the right to deal with
the problem as it may deter
mine, but subject to absolute
guarantees in the Constitution
of the United States to pro-
tect each State from interfer-
ence and invasion by its neigh
bOrs, and that in no part of
the United States shall there
be return of the saloon
system with its inevitable
political and social corruption
and its organized interference
with other States"
AS to what part. If any, he
personally will take in the
advocacy of prohibition reform,
Mr.. Hoover made no commit
ments. But the bare fact that
he has now abandoned the dry
stand he has hitherto taken and
now comedies that "a change is
necessary" constitutes a radical
departure from the old order Of
1923.
Drys Are AghaSt
The professional drys who have
incorporated themselves into a ma
tlonal board of strategy we're
aghast today. Notwithstanding
the Republican platform and its
resubmiSsion plank, they had
clung to the belief that Mr..
Hoover would not fail them, that
he would stand fast to his pre-
vious utterancs that constitutional

COURT SNAGS
ROOSEVELT
VERDICT
Rule to "ShoW Cause" How
ever, Does Not Hinder Added
GriIIing of Walker

CUTIvE CHAMBER,
ALBANY, n. Y, Aug -
G.N.S.). - Gov. Franklin D.
Roosevelt was blocked this
afternoon by a court order
from making a quick decision
on the question of removing
Mayor James j. Walker from
office on the charges pre-
ferred by Samuel Seabury.
The governor cannot render
a decision until August 19 at
the earliest and possibly not
until after the presidential
election in November.
This development came while
Mayor Walker was undergoing
interrogation by the governor at
public hearing in the executive
chamber. ...
Clash Marks Session
The session today was featured
by a sharp clash between Mayor
Walker and Seabury when the
latter attempted to cross-examine
the mayor.
Governor Roosevelt announced
he had accepted the court order
to show cause why he should not
withhold his decision until AL
gust 10. when the question of the
governors right of jurisdiction
in the Walker case will be argued
in the Supreme Court in Albany.
The order was obtained today
from Supreme Court Justice
Harold j. Hinman. by Attorney
Sidney Levine of New York city,
acting for George Donnelly, a
home-rule advocate.
Donnelly insists that under the
home.rule section of the Consti-
tuition the governor is without
legal authority tot remove Mayor
Walker.
First Skirmish Due
A court fight on the issue is
now in progress and may develop
into a lengthy legal battle which
will prevent the governor from
rendering any decision until after
election. Thus, his decision would
have no effect on the national
political election.
The first skirmish in the legal
battle will be staged before Su-
preme Court Justice Ellis j. Staley
in special term of Supreme Court
in Albany, August 19.
If Judge Staley denies or rejects
