By David Lawrence. (Special Correspondent of The Eve- ning World.) WASHINGTON, Nov. 17 (Copy- right.) —- President Harding hasn't changed his. views on the Prohibition of seeing some of the things relutcd by Mra, Gibson. Proof that his denial {s untrue ex- {sts, That same proof is an explana- tion of his stubborn refusal to adinit he was in the Kamilton Road-Do Pussey Lane area the évening of Sept. 14. Under pressure of that proof the authorities have no doubt of the result of offering him a choice between telling the truth or spending a term in jail for not telling it. It may be that in exchange for “coming through" he may get immunity from or at least protection against the en- forcement of the Volstead act, whicb ae the recent election showed, Is not popular in New Jersey. Another witness. who came Into the case to-day for the first time, may be the second of the two new ones men- tioned. He ts Wade H.

There ® rumor it concerned electric light and gas bills for the old Phillips farmhouse, supposed to have been a} trysting place for Mr. Hall and Mrs Mills, until it was established there was no electricity or gas in the honse, Mr, Johns's only statement to report- ers was: “Some time ago I gave the officers some information coincidental with a development then pending tn the in- Vestigation. At that time I did not regard the information as !mportant It Came to me by chance and was something that might have occurred to anybody in New Brunswick. I re- garded the information as of so little importance that I did not think of it again until a few days ago, when a detective same to me and thanked me for the ‘oformation. This detective said that the tnformation had proved important and of great aid to the State.” . “What the information was I do not care to disclose, and I do not know whether I am to be called before the Grand Jury, Final plans for going before the Grand Jury will be made at a con- ference to-day in Somerville of Mr. Mott and officials cssociated with him in the investigation. Unless some- question, He voted as a member of the Senate for the Eighteenth Amend- ment the Volstead act. Whatever letters he has written be fore and after the election discussing Prohibition in its relation to the vote in Eastern States was not intended ag a forecast of what he himself might favor but an interpretation of what might be forthcoming in Con- gress and in the several States, That's the position of the chief ox- ecutive as it was outlined to the cor respondent to-day, Mr, Harding hasn't any idea of initiating any change In the Volstead law by recom- mendation to Congress. He has re- cetved several letters from prominent Republicans in Eastern States telling him the wet sentiment must be reck- oned with. Mr. Harding has cour- teously acknowledged these communi- cations and has given it as his per- sonal opinion that there was a shift- ing of views going on in the coun| to-day. He didn’t attempt to say in what direction the shift would lead, concretely, but he did hint that he thought it would be in the matter of regulation: namely, changes In the Volatead law. ~ In this respect Mr. Harding was Nmply sizing up what the last elec- tions meant and the effect on Con- gress, ‘The President isn’t saying what, his views would be if Congress put up to him a bill which modified the Volstead act. There is every rea~ son to believe Mr. Harding's prog: nostications have not gone any fur ther than that, Significance, never theless, can be attached to the fact that Mr. Harding did write some let- ‘ters on the subject to party associ- ates, that he does believe the ixsue is so acute that it will not be aban- doned and that there has been a shift- ing of his views among some voters on the subject. and also for Mr. Harding is merely referring in his letters to the movement. for modl- fication of the Volstead law, and he predicts it will come up for serious consideration. He doesn’t prophesy it will be successful. Nobody can tell what any Congress will do after the Anti-8aloon League begins its man-to- man canvass and holds Senato} Representatives to a strict ac ability for their acts.
