.BR0OKHART TALKS
AT DRyS' MEETING
BIames Repeal on Mellon,
Repeats His Attacks on
Wall Street.

Smith Wildman Brookhart's opin.
ions OF "wets" and Wall Streeters,"
familiar for many years to Senator's
and galleryites, were heard again last
night at a prohibitionist mass meeting
in the McKendree Methodist Episcopal
Church.
The former Senator from Iowa, ad-
dressed about 100 persons at rally
of the United Dry Forces Of the Dis
trict. Rain drove the gathering from
Franklin Park to the church.
Blaming Wall Street for prohibition
repeal. Brookhart said the eighteenth
amendment was killed because of lack
of proper enforcement, the fault, ne
declared, Of Andrew w. Mellon, the
greatest distiller in the United States"
Brookhart charged that Mellon, as
Secretary of the Treasury, failed
properly to check prohibition violators.
Brookhart said the way to get the
dry law back was to convince citizens
that the prohibitionists are for the
farmers, the laborers and the small
business men"
Deets Pickett. secretary Of the
Methodist Board of Temperance. Pro-
hibition and Public Morals, told the
meeting: "As soon as we get our con-
stitutency organized We are going to
sweep this whole repeal business into
the Atlantic and Pacific Oceans"
Brookhart's attack on Mellon was
taken up by John B. Hammond of
Iowa. who charged the former Treas
ury Secretary with lax enforcement
of the Sheppard District prohibition
law
Hammond urged enactment OF bill
introduced in the House by Repre-
sentative Guyer of Kansas which
would replace the repealed Sheppard
law.
DR.. Everett NJ Ellison. president Of
the United Dry Forces Of the Dis
trict. said the purposes Of his organ
ization we're to educate young people
concerning alcohol and ultimately tc
bring back prohibition.

House to instruct that chambers con-
ferees to accept the compromise.
The compromise. though not fully
outlined, was said to direct the Fed
eral Power Commission to decide
which companies should be eliminated,
but would leave wide avenues through
which the companies could carry to
the courts their fight against dissolu-
ton.
Bulk Sales May Be Permitted.
Concerning the new liquor agency
projected as successor to the defunct
Federal Alcohol Control Admiristra-
tion, informed quarters predicted Con-
gress would permit bulk sales Of liquor
in kegs and barrels and would set up
an independent regulatory agency
which. however, would submit its
reports to Congress through the
Treasury.
The Senate had voted to restrict
sales to liquor in bottles and to make
the agency independent. The House
approved the bulk sales and decided
to put the agency under the Treasury.
Among measures mentioned as lost
in the shuttle so far as this session of
Congress is concerned was the new
food and drug regulatory system. 1t
was predicted Congress would not act
finally now on railroad pension legls-
lation to replace law stricken off
the books by the Supreme Court.
There were indications, however, of
a forthcoming investigation to de-
termine whether or not the new social
security law should apply to railroad
workers

to the policies of the present admin
istration. He declared his belief that
