LITTLE POINT SABLE, Mich., Au gust 7 —Executives of the Anti-Saloon League of America, gathered here In conference, already are prepertof for another wet and dry fight In the 1832 presidential election. The Democratic party, they concede, will then be stronger than it was in 1928, and in the words of Dr. T. Scott Mcßride, national superintendent of the league, the chances of having a Demo cratic nominee friendly to prohibition “are not very hopeful.” Gathered yesterday for the opening session of their conference in a little church almost hidden by sand dunes, on the eastern shore of Lake Michigan, the league executives from all over the United States heard reports predicting few reversals for the cause of prohibi tion in the Pall elections. Alarmed Over Democratic Activity. Although those elections are the im mediate concern of the league, prlnci pal alarm was expressed over the activ ities within Democratic ranks thus far In advance of the next presidential election. To counteract those activities. Dr. Mcßride urged accumulation of a bigger war chest, strengthening of State or ganisations and planning of a definite offensive against the wets. “I am of the opinion,” Dr. Mcßride said, “that the time is overripe to go to the public with a challenging call and program. A more adequate fund for a more adequate program is demanded if we are to meet the needs of the day.” Dr. Mcßride sounded a cheerful note in his report of the political situation to date. “So far,” he said, “20 primary elec tions have been held. In most districts and In most States the primary is the real election. We have not forgotten, however, In earing for the primaries, the non-partisan methods of the league. Particularly In those districts where the vote is likely to be close in the election, we have made it a point to win drys in both major parties. Embrace Doubtful Districts. “These 20 primaries have embraced most of the doubtful districts. They have proved to be a cross, section of the country, extending from Oregon to Maine, and embracing the very critical States of Pennsylvania. New Jersey and Illinois. It Is within those States that the wets have had their chance to win. While the wets put on a big campaign and spent more money and effort than ever before, they have not made any worthwhile inroads on the prohibition majority in Congress. There has been no loss of drys in either house. They were badly routed and disappointed In Pennsylvania, They have, however, be come greatly encouraged over the nomi nation of Dwight W. Morrow in New Jersey.” youngltudents WILL GO ON SAIL Americanization School Associa tion Plans Second Moonlight Excursion Down Potomac.
