Brown 0 I8 well known locally. He was mpaigning for President Harding in Wapaectictt and West Virginia during V. BSbat of the fight. Many people i eity will remember his speech tore the Third Ward Republican lub at Lake Compounce, at which me he brought a personal message 0 the voters of New Hritain from esident Marding. Col. Brown is the entor of the Brown speedometer hich is at the present time being anufactured by the Corbin Corpor- tlon of this city. The Washington Post has the fol- ng to say after an interview with lonel Brown: dicts Era of Great Prosperity. “The United States is destined to rosper under the administration of varren G. Harding as never before h history,” declared Col. Wilbur C. rown, of Fostoria, Ohio, at the Wil- rd. Col. Brown was on the staff President McKinley while he was overnor of Ohlo, and was at the bed- lde of the martyred president at the me of his death iIn Buffalo. “I have known the president for a uarter of a century, and ¥ make the rediction of prosperity for his ad- ration because he is the pro- Pe of Willlam McKinley and pos- s all the qualities that marked t presidential administration with uch success. President Harding in 1) respects, in kindly, forceful per- nality, embodies the characteristics it McKinley that made the people of e nation love him. President Hard- has the persuasive force that will Inite all factions of the republican rty and will bring success to his vory undertaking. Like McKinley, e is a leader of men and not a river. The qualities of McKinley at enabled him to pass a republicar ariff bill througn a democratic to are highly developed in Poe farding. Just as the McKinley inistration wis - &, 80 will that of Harding’s be. We we never had patriotism daveloped such a high degree as during Mec- Inle: administration.

C. A. on Prohibition Yesterday Emil 1., G. Hohenthal, most worthy of the temperance soclet America, guve an interesting “The Enforcement of the Prohibiton Act” before a large gather- ing at the Y. M_ C. A. yesterday after- T speaker addressed the nbly in the lobby at 4 o'clock, spoke here about two years ago. Commencing with his talk, Mr. Hohenthal spoke briefly on the rea- sons for prohibition and the physical zained through it. As far the Revolutionary War, Dr. Rush, then surgeon gen- army, ‘recommended the of rum. Other notable sicians testified as to its injurious 1d urged dis- North talk on, as- He busk as Benjamin cral of the abolishing phy effects upon the body, use of alcoholic beverages ILecading manufacturers and business men like E. H. Gary of the United wtes steel company and F. Platt of the New Britain Machine company claimed at the abolishing of rum would ve to encourage economy and of the money spent in that purpose could be used otherwise. Protestant and Catholic leaders have recarded ther testimony favorable to prohibiton, Statesmen the world over, have advocated the killing of the lquor traflic, sald Mr. Hohenthal. The ecffort to rid thie country of rum traffic has been actively going on for more than a century. Mr. Hohen- thal counted as far back as 1640, when it was forbidden to drink more than a given quantity, and one who became intoxicated suffered a more wevere penalty than those now im- posed for drunkenness. Stocks, by the wayside, were used to place such per- sons as these, and were gazed upon with scorn by the sserby for hours at a time. S8chool aid Mr. Hohenthal are continually hing the evils of narcotics and cohol and will con- tinue to do so for many years to come. When the 18th amendment was adopted, 33 sta had themselves prohibited the traflic There were still three to be had to ratify the amendment. When it was sub- mitted, 45 states ratified. Following the ratification, the Volstead Enforce~ ment Act was passed. This combines the thought and experience of some 60 years of dealing with prohibition and was considered a good law by many. Mr. liquor Hohenthal felt that there were still some imperfections in prohibi- tion, but these would eventually be disclosed by the law. Mentioning the most drastic ones which had as yet not been used in this state, Mr. Hohenthal gave the following illus- tration: The owner of .a building whoke tenants persist in violating the law may find his place locked up for a year by the court order, simply be- cause he permits his tenants to con- tinue this unlawful business. Leases are cancelled because the tenant vio- lates the prohibition law. By this means, said Mr. Hohenthal, our county commissioners renewed applications for licenses which neces. sarily meant the extension of old ones. for this reason we are now seeking to secure from the General Assembly, an enforcement code that will corre- spond with the so-called Volstead act, Mr. Hohenthal sald. Its passage will give the state and local officials auth- ority to enforce the law. When con- gress meets at a special session it will strengthen the act, it is believed. We are keenly interested in whom President Harding will select as com- missioner of internal revenue, as this position will have much to do with the future police enforcement. In regard to the people taking the prohibition act, Mr. Hohenthal was of the opinion that it was received with recognition and approved of by the majority. Tt came quietly. Despite the slackening of business and other depressions, our savings banks show a decided increase in deposits, which prohibition has enabled us to do, otherwise the money may have been spent for rum. The question of to- day =, “Do you intend to be a law- abiding citizen and observe the pro- hibition laws?"” Safety lies in obed- jence to law, concluded Mr. Hohen- thal.

Edwards has in the new ministration are assured General Edwards, the ranking brie er of the army, tirst named by President Harding for promotion to the permanent rank of major general. The failure to pro- mote him was a moving reason for the reason for the refusal of the sen- ! ate to confirm tho last batch of nominations of major generals sent in by President Wilson. Mr. Harding is known to have high ard for Geners Edwards as an and there is the additional consideration that General Edwards an Ohioan. a fact that Mr. Hard- i ing recalled in conversations before | his inauguration. At least two high members of the administration may be said to be sympathetic toward the Edwards side of the army controversy that resulted in his name being elim- inated from the list of officers nom- inated for promotion to major gen- eral. Vice-President Coolidge, while gov- ernor of Massachusetts, was the head of national guard. units that served in the Twenty-sixth division overseas. It is charged by New Englanders that General Edwards was removed from command of the division shortly be- fore armistice, because he insisted on taking the National Guard side of a controversy with higher officers of the regular army in France. The fact *hat John W. Weeks, secretary of war, is also a Massachusetts man, and is familiar with the resentment of New England National Guard veter- ans against General Edwards’ treat- ment is held to have an important bearing upon Edwards’ chances of. being slated for early promotion. SUPREME COURT HAS UPHELD BURLESON (Continued from First Page.) and the court condemned these .as “false” and tending to “disloyalty.” The case was declared by counsel for the Leader to be ‘“more import- ant than was the<Dred Scott case or any question heretofore realized con- cerning the destiny of democracy in America.” Publishers of the . New York Call which also was denied the scond class mailing priviege during the war, joined in the appeal. The power to give the permit ecar- ried with it the power to withdraw the court said, and the latter policy “has been repeatedly upheld.” An Enemy At Home. The case was brought on the ap- parent theory, the court said, that this government “‘competent to fight a foreign enemy” is helpless to fight “an insidious enemy at home.” The opinfon of the court was delivered by Associate Justice Clark. Justice Brandeis delivered a dissenting opinion. The question is not one of a war power or stitute, or of a fact inci- dent to war, Mr. Brandeis said, but is only whether the postmaster zen- eral had the power he exercised. Neither the act establishing the postal service nor any other of the basic statutes mentioned any such condition as that imposed by Mr. Burleson, Mr. Brandeis said. Mr. Brandeis contended that any issue of the Leader violating the law could be barred. but that there was no power existent to bar a publi- cation indefinitely. “This would be an =sorship. he said. Mr. Brandeis said the attempt to pass a censorship law had failed and that if it had been passed, he thought it would have violated specific sec- tions of the constitution. Associate Justice Holmes concurred “in the substance” of Mr. Brandeis opinion. The postmaster general could not determine in advance whether a publication would violate the law. The section of the postal authorities, the dissenting justice: said. practicall ymade “an outlaw” of the appelant in this case. absolute cen- WORK FOR THE SENATE Scveral New Treatics Come Up Be- fore New Upper House Today.
