Bishop James Cannon, jr, of the Methodist Episcopal Church. South. ex- plained yesterday why he chose to come home from England on the Olympic, a “wet” ship. Answering a radio query. sent him aboard the steamer last Tuesday by Representative La Guardia, Republican, New York, the churchman made public his reply, in which he declared tha “other matters besides ‘wet’ and ‘dry’ enter into the choice of the ship on which one sails.” “Speed, safety, date of sailing, port of landing, cost, needed and available | accommodations, companions—all these,” | the bishop sald, “are matters to be con- | sidered. All things being equal, certainly I should select a ‘dry’ ship, but I leave others to determine for themselves which ship will best meet their needs D0, MONDAY, APRIL 29, 1929, and best enable them to accomplish their pu?ous." He added that he could not “believe that any considerable number of travel- ers are such slaves to the appetite for intoxicants as to subordinate other mat- ters of importance to the item of whether the ship on which one lives for six or eight days is ‘wet’ or ‘dry.” " World War Field Marshal Dies.
