Debating the ques- tion last night, both Senator Borah of Idaho, dry, and Dr. Nicholas Mur- ray Butler, president of Columbia University, wet, said they would press their views on the convention. As Senator Borah put it: “I agree with Dr, Butler, The fight is on. It will be presented to the ‘ican people in the campaign of 192 In this connection, Dr. Butler said: “The war is on, x x xx xx x x. No candidate for the presidency hereaft- ‘ er will be permitted to avoid the is- ‘sue by hiding behind law enforce- i a ment.” ‘ Some 3,000 persons who crowded Symphony Hall and uncounted thou- ON sands of others who listened by radio were divided as to who won the de- bate, There was no official decision, but the Boston Herald, Republican, appointed nine Republicans of state 4 ft prominence as unofficial judges. q Their vote-was 6 to 3 in favor of the senator. The Herald in announcing its list of judges said: “The Herald carefully refrained from asking their opinions on the question. It added that it was assumed that one of them, president Marsh of Boston University “is a firm believer in prohibition, and that another, William H, Cooi- > 5 5 idge, Boston lawyer, “has been a! , consistent critic of prohibition,” and continued: “As to the others, the Herald can- not state with any’ definiteness that they are wet or dry.” Boston Herald Has Judges The Herald’s judges were George W. Coleman, president of the Bab- son Statistical organization; William H. Coolidge, financier, unrelated to the president; Frank S, Deland, cor- ration counsel for the city of Bos- Carl Dreyfus, Boston merchant; Frank B. Hall, attorney, formerly chairman of the Republican state committee; Daniel L. Marsh, president. ‘of Boston University; Arthur P. Stone, judge of the Cambridge dis- trict court; E, Mark Sullivan, lawyer; Benjamin Ipring Young, speaker of the state house of representatives. The debate was sponsored by the Progressive-Republican organizatior the Roosevelt Club, Inc., and counte! anced, even though the political is- sue may not have been, by the pres- ence on the platform of the chairman of the Republican national commit- tee, William M. Butler, The disputants agreed from the first on the evils of liquor and the saloon and that the present state of enforcement throughout the country was not satisfactory. Dr. Butler, who took the affirmative of the questie: “Resolved, that the Republican’ na- tional platform in 1928 should advo- cate the repeal of the 18th amend- ment,” declared at the beginning t that their differences were not as “wet or dry,’ and to this his opponent as- sented. Should Have 25-Year Trial For a broad summarization, Senator Borah contended that the amendment was a law to be enforced and obeyed and not to be abandoned, in the face of the lack of a suitable substitute, ae it had had fair trial over 25 Moe Butler argued that the amend- 4 ment was not germane to the con- stitution, that it changed the theory of our federal government and that the Quebec government control was a far better way of cerrecting the evil. In declaring the ‘subject a national issue, the speakers varied so ‘hi Dr, Butler said: “It it - ant than any since Nery and secession. It is ily and chiefly ion of government, of the protection and perpetuity of the form of foreroniens estab! id by the constitution. ap les ‘the legislative saa Padi sdicii branches of the government to the American people to undo the damage done and correct that stupendous er- ror, Senator Borah urged, however, “to abardon prohibition’ now would be to betray the ginel sips of the party. It would be criminal to break down and disregard the constitution. What we need 1s not a party giving orders to retreat but orders to advance. The Republean and Democratic parties may sidestep this issue but the peo- ple will not.” Lot # \ Some Epigrams Both arguments sparkled with epi- Bi saloon, only.
