Jordan, member of California Republican delegation to Cleveland and who, as a good Republican, went on ‘to New York to see how the Democrats ran their convention. ‘The gist of Jordan's tale, and it 1s supported by numerous Demo- cratic delegates who now are strag- gling back homeward, was that New York not only stole San Francisco's stuff as a city that knows how to entertain Bourbon delegates, but that it went the city of the Golden Gate several better, particularly in the matter of anti-Volsteadian bev- erages. “It has been maid that San Fran- elsco was notoriously wet during the Democratic convention held here four years ago,” said Mr, Jordan today. ‘Compared with New York's freedom with liquor supplies during the recent convention, San Fran- cisco was as arid and dry as the Sahara and It was gretty wet here, if you'll ‘remember. “If any Bourbon delegate or any visitor In New York during the con- ntion went liquorless, it was en- tirely a matter of choice.

In Pittsburgh, you don’t need to go to a cafe. Nobody in any of the three cities pays any attention to t Eighteenth amendment. The pre ing opinion seems to be that’ Vol- ism is the biggest joke in his, as not so wet. It was not totally dry, however.’ The liquor desired by the Repubd- Means was obtainable through the proper credentials or proper intro- auctions, STEER ened eed EQ A.
