Washington should worry. i No distinguishing marks serve to ten propaganda sheet sent to the cor- respondent of The Evening World, which purports to contain the gist of the remarks prepared by Wayne B.| Wheeler, counsel to the Anti-Saloon | Teague, for his address to an audi- ‘nee at the Labor Temple in New York last night. An arresting line in he document tells of those who are endeavoring “to improve the con- jon of the proletariat of this country.” The anonymous communication ‘was brought to The Evening World vffice in. Washington by a messenger from the headquarters of the Anti- Saloon League, BUT “WASHINGTON SHOULD WORRY.” But as‘hereinbefore stated, Wash- ington should worry. If there is a “proletariat” in Washington it should worry, also, and faint and be car- ried out feet first. Congress has just passed the appropriation bill allow- ing’ some $18,000,000 for the expenses of the District of Columbia during { the fiscal year ending June 30, 1921. luasmuch as the efforts of the Anti-Saloon League are directed, ac- vording to the propaganda sheet ebove quoted, toward “amelioration ef the condition of the proletariat” and, inasmuch as, prior to the benev- olent infliction of prohibition on the District of Columbia, the proletariat, as the Anti-Saloon League character- izes the class benefited, furnish- e@ most of the’ work for the police ‘orce, let us see what Congress has done for paid police force of the Distric, of Columbia, ‘There was appropriated for the use of the police force of the District of Columbia in regulating a purified “ynd sanctified “proletariat,” in the course of the ourrent fiscal yx ending June 30th next, the sum’ of $1,882,021. ‘The expense of the same police force, dealing with a purer and sainiller prolectariat for the forth- coming fiscal year there was asked, nd confress has appropriated, the sum of $1,573,301.
