_for crime punishments than New York, RITCHIE RECITES STATE DRY VIEWS Tells Boston Audience En-| forcement Rests With the Federal Authorities. By the Associated Press. BOSTON, Mass., December 12—Gov. Albert C. Ritchie of Maryland, propon- | ent of the “wet” cause and an advocate | of the principles of State rights, Tues- | day night said that no State in the Union was under any obligation, legal or moral, to pass a State law to enforce or help enforce national prohibition. Maryland, which never has had a State enforcement law, was better off without one, according to Gov. Ritchie, who cited conditions in his State to supwt his assertion. He spoke here befo,~ a large audience under the aus- pices of the Liberal Civil League, which, | with other *‘wet” groups, is behind a movement to repeal the State enforce- ment law in Massachusetts. Cites Baltimore Figures. | To substantiate his contention “that | a State Volstead act is not necessary for an orderly and law-abiding city,” Gov. Ritchie offered figures showing that in 1928 Boston, under such a State act, had 5,291 more arrests for drunken- ness than Baltimore without a State enforcement act. “We look at other American cities and we see more crime and more lawlessness under State Vol- stead acts than we have in Baltimore without one,” he said. Gov. Ritchie said that Baltimore, which has more than half the popula- tion of Maryland, has a better record Chicago, St. Louls, Cincinnati, Kansas City and Milwaukee. He based this statement on figures compiled by Prof. Raymond Moley of Columbia Univer- sity. Improved morale in the Baltimore Police Department, absence of crime waves and freedom of the police to de- vote their time to the detection of crime and the arrest of criminals were some of the conditions obtaining in Maryland without & State Volstead act, he said. Local Laws Govern., QGov. Ritchie emphasized that, al- though Maryland has no State prohibi- tion act, Baltimore and the counties have local laws governing the subject which allow the measure of enforcement the people of those places want. “Maryland,” Gov. Ritchie said, “does not defy the Federal law or try to nullify it. * * * We may be legally bound to obey it, but we are not bound and we decline to assume the burden and the cost of enforcing it—that is for the Federal Government to do.” “WITH UNFAIR PRACTICES Association Sued for $100,000 by | Producers—Injunction Also Sought.

By the Assoclated Press. CHICAGO, December 12.—Gov. Frank- lin D. Rocsevelt of New York visioned | a brighter future yesterday for the| Democratic party in 1930 and left with party leaderrs in Chicago and Illinois renewed hopss of success in the com- ing_congressional elections. ‘The smiling New York Governor, who went from one group of leaders to an- other, addressed a luncheon assemblage of several thousand Democrats, called by Thomas F. Donovan, Illinois national WAbRINULOUN, committeeman, to honor Gov. Roosevelt as a presidential possibility in 1932. The governor led through several subjects in his address and dwelt upon public utility and the water power fight in New York, the farm problem, the Pennsylvania senatorial situation, and ended in an a to Democratic or- ganizations in every State to work con- tinually from now until November next for the success of their party. Jouett Shouse, chairman of the Dem- ocratic national executive committee, dwelled primarily upon what he termed the failure of the Republican party to enact a tariff meagure. Pouncing on what he called “the Grundy episode,” Gov. Roosevelt said: “Probably I should speak as a par- tisan Democrat and thank God for Jo- seph Grundy, for he has done much to ald the Democratic cause. But in- stead I speak as an American citizen | and I hope that the rumors are not true that the Governor of Pennsylvania is going to appoint Grundy to the United States Senate.” Deriding the reference to “backward States,” made by Grundy in his recent testimony before a conf fonal com- mittee, the New York Governor called these “backward States” the “backbone of American civilization.” 7 Hours in Bed and Not 7 Minutes The Toll Acidity Takes You go to bed dog-tired, but the ou hit the pillow all sleepi- If you sleep at all, ches, and you wake “stupors” with a Strange, startled feeling, sometimes in a cold sweat.
