LIQUOR SALE T AS TRADE REVIVER Socialist Candidate Tells Mil- waukee-Prohibition Is Minor Campaign Issue. By the Associated Press. 1 MILWAUKEE, September 27.—Nor-|m man Thomas, Socialist nominee for the presidency, told a group of Milwau- keeans last night that it is impossible for America “to drink itself out or the depression.” In a city which has always given thumping majorities to anti-prohibition causes, Thomas said that prohibition should be a minor issue in the campaign. Alleviation of human suffering, housing and creation of jobs are uppermost in the minds of Americans, he said. Thomas added, however, that he is convinced the eighteenth amendment is a mistake, and that he is squarely be- hind the Socialist platform, which de- mands repeal. He is opposed to the re- turn of the saloon, he added. Payment of the soldiers’ bonus in full at this time would be inexpedient be- cause it would impair the Nation's abil- ity to care for the unemployed, Thomas asserted. He would have the bonus pald now only to former soldiers and sailors who ere unemployed. Thomas made a thrust at Franklin | D. Rocsevelt by saying that while he | talks of regulating utilities New York- ers are paying more for electricity than they did before he was Governar.
