Declaring the suppression of liquor traffic to be the greatest question of the year, opposing Wilson’s league but favoring some world alliance for peace, condemning strikes and advo- cating industrial scoring grafters and advocating clean gov- erment, condemning compulsory mil- itary training and expressing pleasure at the granting of suffrage to women, Dr. Aaron S. Watkins, prohibition candidate for president, delivered a noonday rally address at the corner of Main and East sfain streets to- day With him were J. Raymond Schmidt. formerly chairman of the Indiana state prohibition party, E. L. G. Hohenthal of South Manchester, Connecticut chairman, and E. L. G. Hohenthal Jr. Herbert Smith of South Manchester played a cornet solo. From here the speakers go to Meriden, Hartford and South Man- (‘hxsler. tribunals, The Liquor Traffic In his talk Dr. Watkins said: ““We believe that the great question of this year. notwithstanding the prevailing impression to the contrary, is the extinetion of the tiquor traffic, The mere passage of law has not set- tled the question, and never can set- tle it, with the intense opposition, bz\r:de by millions of capital working underground. “It is true that we are now prom- ised by some of the candidates for President that they will enforce the law if elected. The two leading can- didates have shown unmistakably their leaning toward the wet side, and there is nothing to indicate that either will experience a death-bed repemt- ance just before the November elec- tion. Talks of a_League. Concerning the Leéague of Nations, Mr. Watkins sai “There has been a great deal of misunderstanding and fog in the discussion of the League of Nations. The term has been bandied about so that it doesn’t mean anything any more. We do not favor the Wilson league, the no-reservation, ‘Pikes Peak or bust’ idea, but we do favor some form of federation among nations. The change in the condi- tion of the world demands this. Am- erica and Europe are more closely connected today than were some of the states of the Union 60 years ago; A'n(l the statements of George Wash- on agzainst entangling alliances are entirely irrelevant today. The ar- Numcnts against any League of Na- tions are very similar to these used hundred years ago against the ..dnpvmn of the Constitution of the United States. [t was honestly be- lieved by many that the adoption of a centralized government would rob | the states of their sovereignty and leave them merely powerless cogs in a great machine. The fallacy of that argument is clearly seen today and the time will come when such argu- ments as applied to the League of Nations will appear equally erron- eous.” . The Labor Problem. “We have taken a very definite stand upon the labor question. We are opposed to industrial warfare. In other words we declare that the strike as a method of settling labor dis- putes is obsolete and inefficient. But (Continued on Eleventh Page).
