The speech that so many people ex- pected Willlam Gibbs McAdoo to make at the Jackson day dinner, challenging the views of Gov. Smith on prohibition, has at_last been made at Richmond. Mr. McAdoo is represented as having | felt that the Jackson day party was a | friendly political gathering in which | proprieties called for harmony. As for | individual expression on party issucs, | the former Secretary of the Treasury | having stepped aside so far as presi- | dential candidacy is concerned. feels | he has a right fo state the viewpoint | of the drvs in the Democratic party | about the importance of preventing any | “wel” from being elected to the presi- dency. | Although Mr. McAdoo does not dis- | cuss Republican candidates, it is known | that he feels President Coolidge has | tailed on law enforcement and that | when Gov. Smith signed the repeal of | the enforcement act in the State of | New York., a more vigorous policy on the part of the White House should | have been pursued. He thinks that | when New York State in effect sub- tracted several thousand police officers | from enforcement duty, the President might have asked for a special appro- | vriation from Congress to help enforce the law in New York State, by increas- ing the number of Federal agents. Cites Misapprehension. Mr. McAdoo insists that Gov. Smith is under a misapprehension in_stating that the Volstead law is as much a part of New York State law as if there were a speclal State enforcement act | The former Secretary declares that the- oretically a local police officer has a | sacred duty to turn over to Federal| officials, any violators of the Federal| statutes, but that in actual practice, it| does not work out that way and that | when the New York State enforcement was repealed State courts lost jurisdiction over liquor offenses. | Mr. McAdoo argues for financial aid | from the Federal Government for States like New York and Maryland. where local enforcement statutes have been re- pealed or never passed. His theory is that the Federal Government furnishes aid to States in road building and can do so in any other Federal activity. While the McAdoo speech is a chal- lenge to Gov. Smith. it also represents the true feeling of the drys about Re- publican policies of law enforcement. and it would not be surprising to sce a movement started to pledge Repub- lican candidates to recommend. if elect- | ed. the appropriation by Congress of funds to take care of law enforcement in those States where the task is being sidetracked. Party Faces Discord. Inside the Democratic party, the effect of the McAdoo speech is bound to be one of greater discord, for already it had been hoped that the speech of the New York governor pledging law enforcement might be the basis for a compromise. Mr. McAdoo sweeps it aside as mean- ingless and attempts to rally the drys in the party against Gov. Ritchie as well as Gov. Smith. The difficulty Mr. McAdoo faces is that unless some out- | | standing candidate makes an issue of prohibition inside the party, the! chances of a clear-cut fight on the question will be diminished. unless. of | course, the platform fight develops the two different viewpoints. | It is being said by Smith supporters | that no matter what controversy may occur on the platform, the New York governor, if nominated. would gladly | stand on the platform. In opposition to this is the view of his opponents, who think that his record will count far more | on the prohibition issue than his ac- ceptance of the party platform. ‘The significance of the McAdoo speech is that there is less harmony in the | party than the Jackson day dinner it- self indicated.

TAXICAB DRIVER ROBBED OF $11 BY PASSENGERS Victim Says Thieves Stole Money | After Taking Ride Into Maryland. ‘Two passengers, picked up at Eigh- centh street and Columbia road about 3 o'clock this morning, held up Walter F. Spittle, a taxicab driver, near Fred- erick, robbed him of $11, part of which they had previously given him, dis- abled his car, which was nearly out of gas, then went on their way, threai- ening him with death if he followed them, he reported today. Spittle was forced to borrow money to refuel; made repairs, then came back and reported the affair to fourteenth preeinct police. One of the bandits was garbed as a woman when they hired Spittle, but this feminine apparel had been discarded for trousers when they left him, and he does not know which of the outfits was a disguise. ‘Taking his passengers this morning, Spittle said they informed him thcy wanted to go to Rockville. Arriving there, he was told to go on to Fred- erick, and demurring was presented with $6, which was 60 cents more than | the fare to Rockville, and told to keep the change. Spittle agreed then, and four miles outside of Frederick the trip ended. ASKS STRONGER DRY LAW. Reform Federation Nullification Be Stopped. A petition was circulated among members of Congress today by the In- ternational Reform Federation asking that the prohibition act be amended “to prevent evasion, to remedy weak- nesses and to stop nullification of the act.” The changes proposed would make | jail sentences mandatory for law viola- tions, with a minimum as well as a maximum penalty stipulated, and would relax considerably regulations govern- ing the issuance and execution of search | warrants, pasticularly as concerning | private homes. e VETERANS’ NAMES READ.
