A— REPEAL “FAILURES” LISTED BY NBRIDE Cocktail Hour and Other Liquor Schemes Held Menace to Women. "By the Associated Press. & ST.LOUIS, December 4—Dr. Fran- *els Scott McBride of Washington, D. 0., told the Anti-Saloon League of fAmerica last night “the wets have .given us 10 reasons why repeal has \failed and why prohibition is on its ‘way back.” General superintendent of the .Jleague, Dr. McBride outlined the rea- “sons as follows: “1. No promise made by the wets to ;regulate liquor has been kept. w “2. There is a decided increase in drinking and drunkenness. “3. Alcohol accidents, automobiles .and otherwise, have made repeal the | » bloodiest period in our Nation’s peace- time history. “4, The bootlegger has stayed. “5. The cocktail hour and other liquor schemes are proving a greater ,menace to women and girls than the ~old-time saloon ever did to men and + boys. . “6. Advertisements are asking women to drink whisky. | “7. Revenues from liquor are less | than the relief money squandered for | liquor. “8. Corruption has increased. Legis- latures have again become submissive *to liquor. “9. The saloon is back. | “10. Repeal has undermined the | wveracity of our political leaders. Presi- dent Roosevelt declared in the con- vention that nominated him, ‘From | this day on the eighteenth amendment | 1s doomed.” With the very next breath he said, ‘We must rightly and morally | prevent the return of the saloon.” He | “made good on the first part of the “ statement, but has absolutely ignored | the second.” | ‘The league completed the election *of its officers. Among the vice presi- # dents chosen were United States Sen- ¢ ator Arthur Capper of Kansas and «John W. Studebaker, Washington, | +D. C. Among those elected to the Execu- . tive Comimttee was Andrew Wilson, Washington, D. C. — CITY NEWS IN BRIEF. TODAY. Meeting, Optometrists, Room 516 + Washington Loan & Trust Building, 8 | pm.
