BOOLE DENOUNCES BORAH WILL GIVE SMITH ATTITUDE ON LIQUOR| Declares Governor Seeks to Bring Back “His Old Love—Saloon™; Praises HOOVC]‘ By the Associated Press EVANSTON, Ill., October 26.—Mrs. Ella A. Boole, national president of the Women's Christian Temperance Union, | last night accused Gov. Alfred E. Smith | of “secking to undermine prehibition | and bring back his old love—the lquor | trafflc” in announcing the policy of the | adopted in its final drive for the “elec- | tion of Herbert Hoover and Charles | Curtis.” . Mrs. Boole spoke before the conven- | tion of the Illinois W. C. T. U. | The national temperance leader said | Gov. SBmith at no time had stated his | opposition “to the evils that accom- anied the liquor traffic when it was egalized when he stated his position on prohibition.” “Was Friend of Saloon.” “In those days he was the friend of the saloon, the beneficiary of its political influence and a leader against all ef- forts to protect women and children from its effects. “Now he ascribes to the law all the evils that are the result of its violation.” Mrs. Boole, outlining Gov. Smith's plan for State supervision of legalized liquor, said “he talks loosely when he says he would safeguard against the return of the saloon, for the experi- ence in Canada has shown that in some of the provinces the beer parlor ;nd wine' parlor are already provided or. “Gov. Smith does not believe that all Boole said. “Gov. Smith makes a definite charge of corruption of the Washington police in which he says that in a single year one-third of the police were up before the officials charged with drunkenness.” Answering this statement, the W. C. T. U. leader read a letter from Edwin B. Hesse, superintendent of police for the District of Columbia, in which he said in 1927 out of 1,347 members of the police force ‘only 28 were tried for drunkenness and charges against six of these were dismissed.” Hits Smith Stand. “In an equally loose manner,” Mrs, Boole said, “Gov. Smith speaks of drinking among young people. The new freedom of youth, in which they copy the excesses of their elders, is to be deplored, as is the fact that certain soclety leaders continue to serve in- toxicating liquors. “The fact is, Gov. Smith is not seek- ing to make prohibition a success, his object_is to undermine it, i UPHOLSTERING DRAPERIES— LIVING ROOM FURNITURE Made to Order STANDARD UPHOLSTERY CO. 403 11th St. N.W.

LYNCHBURG, Va., Ocober 26 (#).— In response to a direct wire from Sena- tor Glass today asking if he stated at Bristol Wednesday night that Mr. Glass at Houston was a “mere pawn in the hands of Olvany, Hague and Brennan,” Bishop James Cannon, jr., telegraphed to Senator Glass from Wytheville posi- tively denying that he made the decla- ration attributed to him in newepaper reports.
