NEW DRY METHOD
jURGED BY ANDREW
Massachusetts Representa
tive Favors Plan Other Than
I Eighteenth Amendment.
L«^=r-
AMESBURY, Mass., July 18.—Repre
sentative A. Platt Andrew, Republican,
if Gloucester, believes some wav other
than the eighteenth amendment should
sought to deal with the problem of
prohibition.
t His concern, he said in an address
pefore a joint meeting of Rotary clubs j
fcere last night, was “the eighteenth ;
Amendment as it is, not as it might '
have been had it been possible to carry
ft out as many in the beginning had
hoped.”
■. He said the eighteenth amendment
ftas brought “some very important”
benefits, but declared, “It has under
mined the people’s regard for the basic
charter of our institutions. It has
Impaired their respect for law and
government. It is corrupting their
standards of straightforward and hon
est living. It bears upon the poor, but
hot the rich.”
He said his expression of opinion re
sulted from despair of the possibility
of an impartial investigation of prohi
bition enforcement.
In an effort to carry out the Presi- ,
dent's original inquiry proposal, he said, ,
“a letter addressed to the responsible
heads of every national organization
and committee known to be concerned
with prohibition, whether pro or con.
bespeaking their support and asking
for their opinions and suggestions,
brought an amazing and disillusioning
response.”
Representative Andrew had not pre
viously taken any part in the dry law
controversy.
BAD FLYING WEATHER
AFFECTS AIRMAIL LINES
Low Clouds and Fog -Holds Up
Planes, While Some Flyers Com
plete Parts of Buna-
Bad flying weather during the past
12 hours has made heavy going for air
mail pilots of Eastern Air Transport on
the coastal run through the National
Capital. Low clouds and fog held up
a number of the planes, while others
dodged through holes in the fog blanket
and completed all or parts of their runs.
Yesterday’s afternoon’s southbound
plane, held up for several hours, reached
Bolling Field at midnight, continuing
on as far South as Greensboro, N. C.,
before being hemmed in completely by
fog. The first northbound, flying a little
later, has been unable to get beyond
Richmond, Va. Both later flights were
held up.
The first section of the New York-
Washington shuttle got through on
schedule this morning, C. C. Taliaferro
dodging the fog banks for most of the
200 miles. The fog closed in behind
him, however, and Pilot Don Johnston,
flying the second section, was forced
down at the Philadelphia Navy Yard
after failing to And the fog-covered
Camden Airport.

changes and detachment of areas from
one country to the other. Drainage
and irrigation of additional -land in
both countries are permitted, and the
annual flood menace to public and pri
vate improvements is eliminated.”
In the construction of the channel
and its embankments, the report says.
13,700,090 cubic yards of earth must be
excavated. The total cost, including a
retention dam. the acquisition of de
tached tracts of land and other
is placed between $6,000,000 and $7,-
000,000.
About four or five years will prob
ably be required to complete the work.
L. M. Lawson, American commission
er on the International Boundary Com
mission, said the report would be taken '
up for consideration today. He and
Gustavo Serrano, Mexican commis
sioner, have helped in preparing it.
When they have gone into all the
technical details of the engineers’ re
port, the commissioners will draw up
their own report for submission to the
governments of the United States and
Mexico.
