. DRY ENFORCEMENT CODLIDGE FAVORS| Dot Think 18th or Volstwd| - “YW¥ill Be Altered at All. - S ——r Washington, Aug. 27.—In tyo im- portant issues which will press for de- cision in the next congress—bonus legislation and modification of the Volstead Act—President Coolidge Holds nearly the same views as Mr. Harding did, according to those who have followed his career. He is re- ported as not opposed to a bonus, pro- . vided the necessary revenue is found, but will not Insist, as did his prede- cessor, upon a sale tax. As to the wet and dry issue, it is known that Mr. Coolidge stands four- square on a strict enforcement of the The Barling Bomber, tried out at Dayton, ately following its first flight, it was surrounded by a crowd of aviation enthusiasts in, which civilians were more numerous than army folk. 0., has thus far proved successful.

President Coolidge’s advisers, no- tably Senator Smoot, chairmaa of the finance eommittee, have told him that a bonus bill will be passed over his veto, if necessary, by the next_con- gress. In the face of this legislative situation, it 1s said, President Coplidge X anxious to see the republican lead~ ers meet the situation squarely with- out émbarragsment to him. “He de- sires that if a bonus bill iy passed it shall carry revenue provisions ace¥pt- able to the executive. Stands for Law Enforcement, While the president: has never stated publicly his views as to the move to liberalize the Volstead act, he has gone on record as to the heer and light wine Jaw which Massachu- setts ‘eought to enact while he was governor. . He, vetoed the bill, and in his message spoke strengly on the necessity to upaold law ‘and order. He expressed no-opinion or the mer- its of prohibition, buf riade it clear that his action in vetoing the bill was based entirely on legal grounds. The veto message written on May 5, 1920, reads: “Therz is little satistaction in at- tempting to deceive ourselves,” M. Coolidg= sai® in the veto message. “There {s grave darger in attempting to decaive the people.

Sworn to Support Constitution “When I took office I gave an oath to support the Constitution: of the United States. That constitution and the laws of congress are declared to be the supreme law of the land. It may be that the Eighteenth Amend- ment and the act under it are one or both void. So far as any court has de- cided, I understand the amendment has been sustained. They haye been before the supreme court for some time, where up to now they both stand as law, That which the court hesitates to decide I shall not hasten to declare. ~ It would be extremely improper to un. dertake to influence that decision by the action of the law-making power of | Massachusetts. " Do not anticipate it, await it. “My oath was not to take a chance on the constitution. It was to support it. When the proponents of this mea- sure do not intend to jeopardize their safety by acting under it, why should 1 jeopardize my oath by approving it? | “‘We have had too much legislation | by clamor or tumult, ot by pressure. Representative government ceases when outside influence of any kind is substituted for the judgment of the|gtatement. Water is pouring through representative. This does not mean| severa: holes in the hull. that the opinion of constitutents is to| be ignored. It is to be weighed most‘ carefully, for the representative must represent, but his oath provides that it must be faithfully and impartially, according to the best of his abilities and understanding, agreeably to the rules and régulations of the constitu- tion and laws. X “The authority of e law is ques- tioned in these days all too much. The binding obligation of obedience |’ against personal desire is denied in many quarters. If these doctrines pre- vail aJl organized government, all liberty, all security aré at an end. Force alone will prevail, WAR ON PRIZE FIGHTING 1§ BEGUN BY METHODISTS Church Organ Calls It Shame of Nas tion and, Assails Col. Roosevelt Washington, Aug. 27.—~The Meth- odist .Eplscopal church today opened a drive against prize fighting gener- ally, and especially in the army and navy. In its “clipshect” the Board .of Tempérance, Prohibition and Public Morals, under the heading “The Shame of a Nation,” attacks the ring sport‘as a ‘‘brutal perversion of box- ing, faking in millions, which even invades fighting services of a Chris- tian nation,” and adds: “Now is the time to stop it.” 5 Assistant Secretary of the Navy Théodore Roosevelt is attacked be- cause in connection with a fight be- tween Bob Garcia, champion of the army, and ‘“Honey Boy" Iinnegan, champion of the navy, Col. Roose- velt wrote this letter to “Honey Boy": “Good luck to you in your bout on the 16th. Only the fact that T am going to be out of town keeps me from bein gthere. I remember pre- senting you with your first cham- pionship belt, and I ~am glad to know, that right through you have maintained the traditions of the navy for clean fighting and hard hitting, The Methodist board says no one ob- jects to clean sparring but claims laws enacted in various states, in- cluding New York, legalize fighting which it describes as cither brutal or fraudulent. Navy and army matches are brutal fights, it says. It urges re- peal of the New York law.
