Other Suicide Attempts Lieutenant I'unston said that when he and Defective Dunphy were tak- fice the morning following the shoot- | ing she tried to throw herself in front of a surface car in Centre street, near Grand street, outside of police head- quarters, and a few feet further on she tried to jump in front of a motor truck.

The Archbishop of Canterbury (Dr. Randall Davidson), who celebrated the 200th anniversary of the arch- episcopate by presiding at the opening meeting of the campaign, said the churches did not propose to advocate prohibition or the ownership of li- cense houses by public authorities. The archbishop added that when he recently headed a temperance dep- utation to Mr. Lloyd George, the for- mer prime minister said: “If the churches of England are united on this or any other subject, they are practically irresistable.” Cardinal Bourne, who was present at the meeting, said prohi- bition was the anfithesis of temper- ance. It was a confession of failure equivalent to the action of a school-| master who employed coercion when he could not control his boys, the car- dinal asserted. Viscount Astor expressed the opin- ion that the liquor trader was the most highly organized for political purposes in Great Britain.
