A—12 = HEAD OF W.C.T.LL DEPLORES REPEAL Charges “Political Corrup- tion” Increased Since End of Prohibition. By the Associated Press. EVANSTON, 111, December 5.—Mrs. | Ida B. Wise Smith, national president of the W. C. T. U, charged today | that repeal of the eighteenth amend- | ment has increased “political corrup- tion.” The charge was made in a state- ment issued on the first anniversary of repeal, in which she asserted the wip- ing out of the prohibition amendment | had not solved the liquor problem. Repeal, she asserted, has “bewildered | the average citizen, prompted the ex- pansion of the relegalized traffic in | beverage alcohol,” and lent “encour- | agement to a hitherto unadvertised comeback for gambling, lotteries and | protected red-light districts in our great cities.” She said there had been an increase in drunkenness, motor ac- | cidents and fatalities, political corrup- tion and risks in industrial conflicts. | Majority Believed Dry. “Not forgetiing,” she said, “that the | eighteenth amendment was nullified | THE EVENING STAR, WASHINGTON, D.

A plan for a great new Museum of | American History, to be built in Wash- | ington, owned by the people and ad- | ministered by the Smithsonian Insti- tution, was approved last night at the | annual meeting of the Washington | Chapter of the National Society of Colonial Wars at the Mayflower Hotel. The project was outlined by James Waldo Fawcett in an address on the patriotic and civic significance of American history. | Such a building, the speaker said, | has been needed for many years. It| would serve to accommodate artifacts | the Smithsonian already owns and would provide room for the exhibition of valuable gifts which, under present conditions of overcrowding, it has been | unable to accept A site on the Mall was specified as the best location and it was suggested that the structure should be so ar- ranged as to make feasible the assign- ment of space for souvenirs and relics of six centuries—the fourteenth to twentieth, Funds should be provided by Con- gress, Fawcett argued, but an applica- tion also should be made, he said, to the Public Works Administration for | a grant | “A Museum of American History," the speaker declared, “would have a larger significance than any other establishment of its kind the Capital | ever has had. It would do for America what the British Museum is doing for England. It would illustrate the story of which every living American is part and it vould personalize that story in pictorial form as nothing else could.” Brig. Gen. William E. Horton was | elected governor of the chapter, suc- ceeding Ralph Putnam Barnard, re- tiring after serving two years. Gilbert L. Hall was re-elected secretary and | Roscoe J. C. Dorsey registrar. U.
