2 lAYSDRYSAND DRYS ONLY ARE PROGRESSIVE Prohibition Keynoter Says Booze Still Holds Political Whip Hand. “The prohibition party has been the only progressive party ‘of the people, for the people and by the people,’ ” said J. Raymond Schmidt in sounding the keynote address of the state campaign of the prohibition party at the state convention yesterday afternoon. The convention is being held in the Y. M. C. A. “The action of the recent republican and democratic platforms shows that booze still holds the whip hand in politics," he declared. “A combination of politicians and the liquor trade has been formed for the purpose of disregarding the wishes of the people and violating the spirit of the eighteenth amendment.” Mr. Schmidt declared that many mem bers of the party had hoped that with the ratification of the eighteenth amend ment there would be no further need of a national prohibition ticket, and that the passage of the Volstead act could be accepted as final. The speaker attacked the candidates of The twn leading political parties when he said “mere silence on the part of the two parties on the liquor question might have been overlooked if the old party conventions had selected upstanding statesmen of commanding Christian char acter and recognized prohibition con victions. “The time is passing when a man may be elevated to the highest office in the land without regard to his personal character and convictions on moral ques tions.” He declared that prohibitionists are not “rubber stamp" voters, end asserted they wanted a presidential choice with out taking orders 'from Wall street, Tammany hall, or a combination of the llqnor Interests, underworld politicians and big business." “Cox or Harding can not be satisfac tory candidates for those who allow conscience to direct their voting,” he declared. He called attention so the fact that “Mr. Harding was a member of the senatorial cabal whose chief ambition was to put the president in a hole at every turn In the legislative road." The speaker declared that the record of Gov. Cox is one of open friendship to the booze business, and declared that the party emplem in this campaign could appropriately be changed from a donkey to a “white mule.” “It seems to be a question this year between ‘Cox and-cocktalls and Harding and highballs.' “ He predicted a great victory for the prohibition party In the 1920 election, since the women have been granted the ballot, . “We gladly shout the names of Wat kins and Colvin to the country—true American and clean citizens —and no man or woman need to blush in shame in giv ing them their vote.” Mr. Schmidt declared that the prohi bition party is generally in favor of the league of nations, and stated that the party could not indorse Senator Har ding's declaration for a separate peace with Germany and the absolute rejection of the peace treaty and league. “But while our position on the leagu? and treaty Is similar to that of the pres ent administration, we can not indorse the democratic party in this campaign, for we do not want the league of na tions with a bnngstarter attached.” the speaker declared. Suffrage, labor and school problems were dealt with by the keynoter, as wpII as referring to the present “social un rest.” Profiteering was denounced, and Jegi--- lation favoring the farmer was pledged by the speaker. “Frankly, your speaker recognizes that very similar conditions prevj.il In this state to those which called forth the na tional prohibition ticket,” Schmidt de clared, “What prohibitionist wishes to make a choice between Senator Jam's E. Wat son and Thomas Taggart for United States senator? “Who among von wishes to Indorse the Goodrich administration and politi cal machine? ‘On the other hand, what prohibition ist wishes to sanction the- Taggart-Bosse machine by voting the democratic ticket?” Schmidt pleaded for the convention to hold the ideals of the prohibition party in mind during the course of their state convention.

One of the interesting features of the ratification jollification, held by the League of Women Voters Saturday after noon, was an impromptu address by Capt. A. M. Scott, who told of hearing Susan B.

FIGHT FORESEEN Improvement Confirmed by Board Over Remonstrance. The board of public works yesterday confirmed resolutions for the widening and resurfacing of Delaware street from Sixteenth to Nineteenth streets over the remonstrance of most of the property owners. Tha board also confirmed the resolu tion which orders the jog in Delaware street at Sixteenth street removed, there being no remonstrance filed against it. Mark Miller, acting chairman of the hoard, said the widening resolution will be sent to the city council for passage over the remonstrance. Property owners indicated they would fight the matter to the last ditch, con tending the improvement will be ex cessive in cost and unwarranted by the public interest. ' The resolution for the grading and pav ing of Oliver avenue from the west end of the bridge over White river to Drover street was modified so that the city agrees to pay for cost of resurfacing the bridge and confirmed. Plans were ordered for the grading of Hiatt street from Miller to Minnesota streets. Bids for a number of sidewalk im provements were opened and final as sessment rolls on several vacation reso lutions approved. THINKS SHOWING OF TEAM IS GOOD Appreciation yesterday was expressed by Adjt. Gen. Harry E. Smith for the showing made by members of the In diana Rifle'club, who havve returned to Indianapolis following the participation in the recent annual competitive matches of the National Rifle association, held at Camp Perry, O. Ranking twenty-fourth out of sixty-six in the rifle matches, and fourteenth out of sixty five in the pistol matches, the Indiana team brought back to the state eight qualified instructors as well as re ceiving many individual medals. The men who were qualified have been certified to and are now authorized to act as instructors and rifle inspectors for the Indiana National guard. “The Indiana organization has made a splendid showing," said Adj.-Gen. Smith. “Excluding the teams which repre sented regular organized military units, such as the West Point team and a dozen others, our boys are ranked among the first in the country, i "I am especially gratified to know that I have qualified for lnstructorshlp In the Indiana national guard, a fact that will prove a very big factor in the training of the guard.” Knights of Columbus Give Fortune to Pope ROME, Aug. 31. —The Knights of Co lumbus, visiting here from America, presented to the pope a quarter of a million lire as I eter’s pence.

REA CTIONibM ISSUE By HORACE M. COATS, Times Staff Correspondent. DELPHI, Ind., Aug. 31.—An appeal for progressive votes was made by Franklin D. Roosevelt, democratic nominee for the vice presidency, in speeches here and at Montlcello yesterday. "The big issue of this eamquign is progressivlsm vs. reactionism,” he said. He said he would like to have the re publican candidate come off his front porch and put the issue before the peo ple. “We are not harking back into time gone by,” he said. "We are electing a president for the next four years, not for the past twelve years.” Mr. Roosevelt took issue with Senator Harding’s statement that the league of nations had been tried and found want ing. He declared that Gov. Cox’s stand is plain. “Our quarrel,” he said, "is pot with the rank and file of the republican party, but with Watson, Penrose and Lodge, the leaders of the party.” In going back to the league of ca tions he said It is untrue that under the covenant England can outvote the United States. He said the United States went into The war for the purpose of making the world safe for democracy and peace and not for the purpose of mere military vic tory over the central powers. Mr. Roosevelt objects to any plan by which congress would declare peace, maintaining that while the constitution gives congress the right to declare war. BUSINESS MEN ASKED TO HELP POSTAL PLANS Union Station Project Men- 1 aced by Express Com pany Effort. A call so business men of Indianapolis ■ to acquaint themselves with facts sur- j rounding the proposed establishment of j a terminal postofflee station at the new Union station and then take immediate j action to help him prevent the Amer- I lean Railway Express Company from taking over all of the space in which the proposed Improvement was to be made war issued by Robert E. Spring steen, postmaster, yesterday. For more than a year Mr. Springsteen has been working through every possible j channel to bring abeut the establishmentj of the terminal posts! station, which would save hundreds of thousands of : dollars annually for Indianapolis ship pers. only to learn, through advice from John Clark, of Cincinnati, superintendent of the Fifth division of the railway mall service, that the express company is about to close a deal with the Indianap olis Union railway by which it would ob- j tain permanent possession of all of the space desired for the postofflee enter- i prise. The matter will be taken up with the postofflee committee and official* of the Chamber of Commerce at Mr. Spring steen* office at 4 o’clock Wednesday afternoon, the postmaster said, but mean while he desires that business men have full Information of the situation in order that they may put their shoulders to the ; wheel and help. WOULD CATC II EARLIER TRAIN'S. The terminal postal station, which would be situated In the space beneath the elevated tracks between Illinois street and Capitol avnue and the space now oc- j cupied by the railway mail service and the express company, would eliminate the handling and haulage necessary In taking : parcel post and registered matter from the central postofflee to the union station. Thousands of dollars in wear and tear ! on equipment and in delays In the malls j could be saved by business men. If It ' were not to transport parcel p*t matter to the central postofflee In stead of directly to the station, the post master points out. Under the system which the terminal station would make possible, shippers using the parcel post, about 65 per cent of whom have placp* of business south of the elevated tracks, would take thetr parcels directly to the Union ststton. Here the parcels would he received, properly weighed and stamped and rushed on to trains. Under the present system the south side shippers must haul their parcels to the central office, which necessitates th crossing of Maryland, Washington and Ohio streets, all of which are congested Many times, the postmaster said, par cels which must go through this round about handling could catch trains In going directly to the Union station from ten to gfifteen hours earlier. The amount of wear on tire* and en gines of motor trucks in private service which would be saved by the lessening of the haul more than half a mile each wny, would be tremendous, he added. Almost eighteen months ago Mr Springsteen first took the matter of es-, tablishing the station up with the post office department at Washington. Postofflee Inspectors who investigated reported it inadvisable because of the high rental on the space. This did not satisfy Mr. Springsteen so he kept after Washington authorities until a committee composed off John Clark, S. A. <Ussier, superintendent of the Tenth division of the railway mall service, with headquarters in St. Paul, and R. S. Brauer, superintendent of the Sixth district, with offices in Chicago, were appointed. This committee favors the improve ment, and is taking steps to gain the favor of Washington authorities for it. Mr. Springsteen was much surprised today, therefore, to receive notice from Mr. Clark that express officials In Cin cinnati had informed him they expected to take over all of the space between Illinois street and Capitol avenue, with the exception of that now held by the railway mail service. P. J. Landers, superintendent of the Indianapolis Union Railway Company, informed Mr. Springsteen that the ex press company spoke for the space al most three years ago. This, Mr. Springsteen said, has not been known before. “I believe it will be necessary for us both to get busy to block the consum motion of the contract with the ex press company,” snid Mr. Clark, In a letter to Mr. Springsteen. "I would suggest that at your meeting with the postofflee committee of the Chamber of Commerce, you point out the benefits by establishment of a receiving station and terminal at the station In the way of avoidance of extra handling of parcel post; this in itself being a great benefit to avoid breakage. “I would also bring to their attention the greater safety In handling of !m portant registered malls between Indi anapolis and other points by the estab lishment of a register terminal at the station, providing this Important mat ter is taken care of in that custody of postal employes! "The public has always recognized the postal service as having precedence in the traffic handled over express, but in this case conditions are reversed and the neeis of our department disregarded ip. fav’orj of the express company.” INDIANA DAILY TIMES, TUESDAY, AUGUST 31, 1920. it places the right to make peace solely in the hands of the president. He ridiculed the idea that the Unite! States would be called upon to send troops to participate in a war such as that now going on in Europe. He pointed out that nations now in the league had not been called upon to supply troops in the Russian-Polish war. Accompanied by Dr. Carleton B. Mc- Culloch, democratic candidate for gov ernor, and by other prominent demo crats, Mr. Roosevelt arrived at Mouti cello at noon, where he was greeted by hundreds of persons, who heard him speak at the courthouse. Mr. Roosevelt appeared in fighting trim, apparently not In .the least affected by his campaign tour of the west. Hiß address was preceded by a short talk by Dr. McCulloch and Miss Julia Landers, national committee woman from Indiana. Following the Montlcello meet ing, the Roosevelt party left by machine for Delphi. Miss Landers laid stress on the Impor tant position given women in the party. The democratic national platform gave the women all they asked for and they are now granting the democratic women a place in their organization, she said. She promised that the state of Indiana would give the majority of its female vote to the “party that stands for the league of nation*.” High tribute was paid by ber to Mr. Roosevelt and to Secretary Daniels, f,or I heir work-in establishing prohibition In the navy.

KRAMER WANTS TO DESTROY ALL BONDED LIQUOR Prohibition Officer Will Ask - Authority to Do Away With 50,000,000 Gallons. MUCH BOOZE IS STOLEN WASHINGTON, Aug. 31.—T0 remove temptation from whisky thieves and bootleggers and to make it easier to en force the Volstead act. Prohibition Com missioner Kramer has decided to ask congress, when it reconvenes, to give him authority to destroy the 50,000,000 gallons of liquor now stored in bonded warehouses. Os course, congress would have to com pensate the owners for the “booze’ ’lf it grants Commissioner Kramer’s request, otherwise it might run afoul of the con stitution. After a year’s failure even to approx imate 50 per cent enforcement of the eighteenth amendment federal prohibi tion officials have decided the only way they can ever get the upper hand la to destroy all that- which was in storage when the Volstead act went into effect, or at least all that is left of it. FEARS ACTIVITY OF WHISKY THIEVES. At the present rate, however, there is ground for believing that the ■whisky j thieves will get the major portion of ! this liquor before congress can get into action. Reports reaching the federal prohibi tion commissioner's office show that j last week more than $500,000 worth of j liquor was held in bonded warehouses. Most of it was taken by highway men, who held up trucks on which it was being transported from one ware house to another. Commissioner Kramer thinks most of the whisky now being sold illicitly comes , from bonded warehouses. Federal guards are maintained at every warehouse where liquor Is stored, and the 1 federal authorities say they can not solve the mystery of its continual disappear- j ance from bond and it* reappearance in 1 the hand* of Illicit dealers. The only way they can account for its ] withdrawal 1* on forged permits, and they say they are unable to prevent that criminal method from being carried on. But If the bonded liquor were all de- 1 stroyed the difficulty would be removed, they assert. Without any llqnor in storage they j say their task would be simplified and 1 they would only have to prevent smug gling. in which the customs servtse would j assist them, and moonahlnlng. ANOTHER WET AND DRY FIGHT CITED. If Commissioner Kramer can get Sec retary Houstot to endorse his plan and the destruction of bonded liquor is put up, to congress, it will probably be the ; beginning of anrftber wet and dry fight In -btt body, which will occupy most of i the time during the short session. Another excuse offered by the federal | prohibition officers for their admitted I failure to suppress the liquor traffic in j the United States is the smuggling going on along the Atlantic matt- Assistants In Commissioner Kramer’s office insist j that blockade runners In sea gray and j camouflaged boat* are landing their con-! tratiand cargoes in forsaken stretches' TAKE PHOSPHATE WITH MEALS IN * SUMMER-TIME Your Nerve* Demand It, Your Blood Needs It. 8y Pb)lfla.
