Non-IntereSt Basis Urged in
Proposal to Spur u. S.

By Scripps-H Newspaper Alliance
DAYTON, O., Feb. 23.-The sug-
gestion that the government can re-
fund much of the national debt by
issuing non-interest-bear notes
stimulating business thereby with
out initiating the money system, was
made today by John F. Dinner,
president of the dinner Fare Reg

His plan is for congress to au-

tons, which would be legal tender,

believes.
Money must be put to work, and
large banking interests as we'll as
private holders of government Secur-

these interest bearing notes, -
he said. THE incentive to invest
capital in taX-free federal interest

Dinner said this plan would not
involve imitation, and specified that

securities-now aggregating about
$40, 900 900, 000-and not to any new

Pape's Diapepsin is good for
you, because it stimulates the

LOBBYIST
HOPES TO KEEP
OKLAHOMA DRY
Lawyer of Anti Saloon
League Big Figure in
LEGISLATION.

BIZ Scripps-Howard Newspaper Alliance
OKLAHOMA CITY, Feb. 23.-
Some people are looking to one
man to keep Oklahoma in the dry
column while the rest of the ma
ton is going wet.
He is II. T. Laughoaum, dean of
the statehouse lobbyists, who has
figured in more legislation since
statehood than any other man.
Without any official connection
Laughbaum, Anti-Saloon League at
torney, has had the privileges of
the floor in both senate and house
of representatives since the first
legislature, and even had a seat at
the press table at one period.
At his home, Laughbaum will sit
calmly reading THE Wet Parade, "
by Upton Sinclair, and glance up
long enough to tell you in a matter
of-face tone, 81 set up the ma
chinery for killing house joint reso-
luton No. 13, by Coe, which would
repeal state prohibition" Pressed
for details, he becomes evaSive.
That's our secret" he says.
Friend of Alfalfa Bill
Laughbaum came to Oklahoma
from Denver before statehood and
participated with his "close friend
Bill Murray" in the constitutional
convention. In fact it was in Guth-
RE during the early days that
Laughbaum organized his powerful
Anti-Saloon League lobby.
LAS attorney for the Anti Saloon
League, l opened Offices in Guthrie
and the night before the constitu-
tional convention opened I called
the twenty-five delegates friendly
to the Anti-Saloon League into my
office.

get in touch with all of you during
the turmoil Of this convention but
there is Roy Allen of Duncan, who
is the first man on the roll call. l

MAJORITY RULE
DEMANDED ON
REPEAL ISSUE
Proposal That Delegates Be
:. Elected at Large Made
by LAWYERS.
BY HERBERT LITTLE
Times stan Writer

WASHINGTON Feb. pa pro-
posal that delegates TO repeal con-
ventions be elected at large, with
all voters Of each state voting SIM
ply for a repeal slate or an anti
repeal slate Of candidates, has been
submitted 10 the state legislatures
now in session by the voluntary
committee Of lawyers working for
Tepeal
Joseph II. Choate Jr. of New York
and other men on this committee
have prepared a general bill, with
provisions to be modified to conform
to each states election laws, to car
ry out this plan.
This plan already has been taken
under consideration in many of the
forty-tWo state legislatures now sit
ting, according to Jouett Shouse,
president of the Association Against
the Prohibition Amendment.
Some drys have proposed that
the convention delegates be elected
by congressional districts, or from
each county or state legislative dis
trict. This is opposed on the ground
rthat the city population, which has
increased since the districts were
laid out, would not be given ade-
uuate representation.
Express MaiOrity's Will
Shouse pointed out that the at
large election system if followed will
give "the direct and definite ex-
preston of a majority Of each
state"
Thus" he said, "there will be
avoided any opportunity to defeat
the popular will through a mode Of
selecting delegates from gerryman-
dered districts which are not in any
atrue sense representative.
while, of course under the plan
of having the legislatures create the
conventions and provide for the
elections incident thereto it will not
be possible to secure absolute uni
formity as to representation in the
conventions, yet all states alike may
provide for the election of delegates
by a statewide vote and thus secure
in the most definite sense an eX-
preston of the popular will.
Must Not Restrict Vote
"As 1 heretofore have said, I'M
less a majority of the people in
thirty-six states want the eight
zenith amendment repealed, 1t
should remain as a basic part of
sthe Constitution, but there must
not be allowed any attempt to re-
strict or to pervert direct ex-
preston of majority by permitting
the establishment of conventions so
constituted as to be unrepresenta-
tive.
with the opportunity through
the election of delegates to hold a
popular referendum on the ques
ton of repeal or retention of the
eighteenth amendment, our asso-
citation is convinced that not merely
thirty-six states will ratify the re-
peal resolution, but that there will
be an overwhelming verdict in be-
half of ratification in many more
than the thirty-siX that are re-
