DRYS HIT SYSTEM OFLIQUOR CONTROL Bratt Plan Used in Sweden Is Attacked—Board Seeks Dime Subscriptions. Dry forces were active on two fronts today, the Woman's Committee for Ed- ucation Against Alcohol coming out with an attack on the Bratt system of liquor control, and the National Prohi- bitlon Board of Strategy seeking 10- cent subscriptions for its work. ‘The statement from the Women's Committee was issued through Mrs. ‘William Tilton, chairman. It uses for its basis the results of a study made by the Swedish Federation of the Friends ©of Abstinence. Abstinence Sentiment Wanes. High prices for liquor and local op- tion for those communities which do not want intoxicants are the principal recommendations of the federation, ac- cording to the statement. This says the survey disclosed that “liquor con- sumption in Sweden under Bratt con- trol system was not decreased so fast as in England, Denmark and Holland, ROSE IN LIFE i Texas on Capitol Hill at Yarns, Is Cactus-Land Native.

Garner of Texas, prospective Democratic Speaker of the House, has pulled himself up by his_bootstraps. ‘The rugged lawmaker from cactu: eovered Red River County is not a col- lege-bred man. He didn't even finish grammar school. His education has been mostly of a catch-as-catch-can nature.

DOMESTIC MORATORIUM AS RELIEF PROPOSED Oklahoma Senator Asserts People ‘Will Take Action if Congress Fails. ‘The moratorium proposed by Presi- dent Hoover for the benefit of Europe must include relief for the American people also, Senator Elmer Thomas of Oklahoma declared in a statement is- sued today, in which he warned that failure to do so might force the people of this country to take matters in their own hands and declare an involuntary general moratorium. “The people of the United States owe each other a total massed debt of over $150,000,000,000," he said. ““Wage earners and farmers, the creators of wealth, cannot pay their taxes, cannot pay their interest, much less the prin- cipial,” he added. The incoming session of Congress must face these facts, Senator Thomas declared, instead of following the ex- ample of the two previous sessions when fmper security was denied fundamental industries, while the tariff was con- tinued for the benefit of the great mo- nopolies.

There is real doubt of guilt of at least half the victims cf mob violence. 2. Fewer than one-fourth of the per- sons lynched since 1890 have been ac- | cused of assaults upon white women. Linked to Education Lack. 3. Claims that lynchi: are neces- sary because courts do not convict col- g’:d persons for their crmes are falla- us. 4. Mob leaders can be identified with- out difficulty, although grand jury in- dictments scldom are brought. 5. Lynching is most frequent per tens of thousands of colored population in sparsely settled areas. There is direct relaticnship be- tween lack of education, low economic | status and lynching danger.

Retiring from State politics, Garner made his first, bid for national recog- nition in 1903 when he was electe’ to the Fifty-eighth Congress. He has served in th= House constantly since that time. His popularity with the found it unnecessary to make a cam- paign speech in more thar a quarter of a century. In his early days in Congress, how- : found campaigning a His district then con- covering as much area as the State of New York. He had to address rallies in every county. Stage coach lines still flourished, but their schedules were erratic. _Rather than bother with them, Garner covered his district on_horseback. It was after a week of such traveling without the luxury of a shave that Gar- ner arrived in Corpus Christi to attend a convention of Texas Democrats. Soon after arriving there he met his friend, Judge James B. Wells, then the political “boss” of Texas. He was talking to when Pat Dunn, a famous cattle- man. sauntered up. After introductions were over, Dunn turned to Wells and inquired, “What did vou sav this man’s name is?" gressman.” Wells responded. “He's the worst looking specimen of humanity I ever saw,” Dunn com- mented. For years the Democratic whip, Gar- ner became minority leader when Rep- resentative Finis J. Garrett of Ten- nessee left the House to run for the Senate a couple of years ago. He also has served ‘as ranking Democratic Means Committee. Always a relentless partisan, he has been a particularly important figure in tax and tariff debates. He has been an outspoken critic of Andrew W. Mel- lon, Secretary of the Treasury, con- tending Mellon should not have the authority to authorize huge tax refunds Nevertheless, he is a personal admirer of the Treasury Secretary, whom he calls “Uncle Andy.” Although never pretending to be an orator, Garner is a veritable Jim Reed in knock-down-and-drag-out debate. A sharp thinker, he generally is able to pick his opponent's argument to pieces and leave him fumbling for words. He also has an acute sense of political strategy. He never is at a loss to know what to do next. The wiry Texan, with his florid face and bristling grey hair, is at his best debates.
