Smith, of New York, have between them made | a major political issue of the ques- tion of a state’s rights. The question of prohibition en- forcement hag become incidental to the broader issue, which now will be fought out in politics, and probably in the courts. POSITION OF BOTH ALREADY KNOWN The effect on the personal and po- litical fortunes of the two chief fig- ures in the controversay is relative ly small, Harding’s position as a 100 per cent dry was well known be- fore he injected himself into the New York situation. Gov. Smith was equally well known as a wet, and, while he has now eternally damned himself ax a| democratic presidential candidate with the dry element of his party, | his condemnation on that score will scarcely ‘be more emphatic than it would have been had he never been called on to make the decision he made yesterday on repeal of state enforcement. NO LESS POPULAR WITH THE DRYS If Smith had vetoed the repealer, he would still be regarded in the Middle West as a wet, and his ac- tion would have been laid to politi- cal expediency. He is stronger to- day with the wet elements of the country than he was yesterday, and hardly any less popular with the drys. The great question of states’ rights will extend far beyond prohi bition enforcement. It will come up with relation to the railroad problem, besides prohibition, the greatest single domestic issue of the lay. THROWS PROHIBITION FIGHT INTO CONGRESS Besides prohibition, the greatest single domestic issue of the day, ft will figure also with respect to taxation of bonds, which will be- come increasingly important in the next administration and congress. As to prohibition enforcement, the possibilities opened up by the prece- dent Smith has set up fre almost limitless, If other states follow New York's example and throw upon the federal courts the entire burden of upholding the prohibition law, the demand for modification of that law to prevent tremendous increases in taxation to support a grestly expanded federal judiciary is certain to occur. This phase of Smith's action is likely to be seized upon by the wets everywhere as the most effec tive means of breaking down t present enforcement law. The fed- eral courts are now swamped with prohibition cases. If United States courts were saddled with the whole burden of such cases many new Judges would have to be numed. Smith's action throws the whole question af prohibition enforcement again into congress, and that means Into politics.

He hay not |come forward and offered one thing for the boy—not a toy at Christmas or a bunny at Easter.” Hundreds of strangers have inter- ested themselves in the case, how- ever, Mrs. Leeds said, Each day she receives scores of letters, offers of assistance, proposals, requests from people who want to be allowed to provide for Jay, and queerly scrawled missives from servant girls —"I, too, have had a baby,” one wrote, The letters come from all parts of the country.

HER HUSBAND SAYS GOODBYE LOS ANGELES, June 2—"I will tell everything of my relations with the dead girl, Alberta Meadows, 1 will bare my entire life to save Clara.” That was the anguished cry today of Armour Phillips, as Clara, his wife, with her last hope gone, sped toward San Quentin, after a half. hour with him here last night. Only an hour before her arrival, the “hammer murderess"” learned that she had been committed to San Quentin and that the appellate court had denied habeas corpus proceed. lings for an appeal. It was a hard blow and she seemed almost to col- lapse, but rallied and regained her composure, ‘: Once, while standing in the flare of calcium lights, while a battery of a half-hundred cameras was trained on her, did she wave She trem- bled and buried her face in her hankerchief, but regained control of herself and faced the photographers, Perhaps the bright lights reminded her of the days when she worked as @ chorus girl, Armour Phillips, after a confer ence on the train, agreed to answer questions, He was avked what he had for sup: per here after Clara came back fol- lowing the murder of Mrs, Meadows and suid, ""I've killed the woman you love; now I'll cook you the best meal you ever had in your lite.” “She never told me that,” Phillips replied. “I never told anybody that.” Undersheriff Biscailuz then reat. firmed that those were Phillips’ words when he gave the information that caused his wife's arrest to the sheriff's office, Mitta Mie Jackson, Clara's sister, who took part in the Honduras ad.
