THE EVENING STAR, WASHINGTON, D. C. THURSDAY, JANUARY 21, 1932. SHOUSE BRINGS LP DRY ISSUE INTALK Urges Courage by Demo- crats—League Criticized for Praising Cannon. By the Associated Press. PHILADELPHIA, January 21— Democratic leaders found the perplex- ing prohibition question in their party spotlight again today. Jouett Shouse. executive chairman of the National Committee, put it there with a declara- tion that the party must meet the issue couragecusly along with the other prob- lems which confront the Nation Casting aside the address he had lanned to deliver at a Pennsylvania “victroy dinner” last night, Shouse de- clared that “temperance has gone to hell” since “there was injected into the | Constitution a police power of the Gov- ernment.” At the same time he criticized the Anti-Salocn League for adopting a reso- lution commending Bishop James Can- | non, jr., at its Meeting in Washington Without mentionjng __the Virginia churchman by name, Shouse said the Jeague meeting “was characterized by intemperate speech with a man rest- ing under serious charges as the chief propagandist—an individual who has never accounted for the campaign funds placed in his hands by the Republican party.” “I scorn, personally and intel- lectually,” he continued, “thcse who would ask us to honor a man who was | a disgraced bishop of a church.” Declaring that the Democratic party | “must have the courage to meet every problem with which America is con- | fronted,” Shouse enumerated these as the tariff, unemployment foreign debts, regulation of utilities, and legislation, | “one problem which some would shrink | from.” | “Of course, you know.' he added,| “that I mean prohibition.” { John M. Hemphill, who ran Gov Gifford Pinchot a close race in 1930, | likewise urged a Democratic stand on | prohibition, but based his plea on the | party’s doctrine of State rights.
