Not Candidate In his formal statement Tuttle said he was not a candidate for pub- lic office and did not wish to be con- sidered in that respect. The statement was given out after he had held a conference with Wil- liam J. Mater, chairman of the re- publican state committee. Tuttle has been considered a like- ly candidate for governor. His po- sition on the liquor question had been awaited with interest by party leaders. In his statement, Tuttle said: “While temperance, as an aid to the moral and economic progress of our country, is desired by all, no one is, or could be satisfied with thin as they are under national prohibi- tion. “The good in national prohibition lies in its outlawing of the saloon and the saloon system and in its grant to congrees of power to c operate internally within the states that maintain a prohibition system. “The evil in national prohibition lies largely in the compulsion sought to be placed upon states which do not desire the prohibition system. “This system, 1 believe should be eliminated from the censtitution.” to 15 | general rate from to 25 per ¢ TUTTLE QUITS JOB, URGES DRY REPEAL U. §. httorney Resigns With York, Sept “harles H. innounced his resignation | Unite attorney for the| southern district of New York in a | nent urging repeal of the 18th | nent bstitute for the amend- advocated a constitutional outlawing the saloon sys- affic in liquor, and al government full to assist in enforcement in states which desire to retain tion ted States private t state ition of vhich desire zal enforcement 1 the sale those control liquor in to go wet. action, he of the 18th| Volstead act, ew York state of to abolish “plague | liquor traffic | d his resignation had | to President Hoover | the president’s urged | the spots of the ot ttle s wvarded eftect fo TREASURY REGAINS HUGE WHEAT FUND \Grain Stabilization Loan of Mil- | lions to Be Returned Washington, Sept. 17 (F—A gold- | en stream diverted from the United States treasury early in the summer in an attempt to peg the price of wheat at $1 or more a bushel is tlowing back today. A loan of 330,000,000 obtained by the grain stabilization corporation from private banks will enable that organization, federal farm board of- ficials said, to return that sum to | the board’s revolving fund. The cor- poration bought between 60,000,000 and 65,000,000 bushels of wheat sev- cral months ago’at prices ranging from $1 to $1 The money was ‘nd\'ln(.r'] by the farm board al- |though the grain stabilization cor- poration assumed all risk of loss | Vice Chairman Stone said the | farm board now had $8,600,000 to $10,000,000 of uncommitted funds and about $65,000,000 to $70,000,000 which has been committed to defi- nite purposes but has not been dis- tributed. The reimbursement from the grain stabilization corporation will increase the. board's uncommit- d funds for further farm relief to about $40,000,000. Stone said the beard also had been reimbursed for funds diverted to cotton stabiliza- tion.
