WASHINGTON “Jan. IOw—F‘ive
years or prohibition. of the menu-
tacture and sale of intoxicating li-
Iquorz still finds the question deep-
rooted in American policies but with
the cause at law enforcement taken
up in earnest at last by a President
of the United Etc: ‘1
I Mr. Coolidge in his early days in
politics was counted as not alto-
B'ether "dry." .but whatever he
mishtrhzve been before he stands
today as the only president in: the
last. five years who has won the ab-
solute confidence or the "dais."
Here is a significant announcsni-sni
by. tho Boardot Temperance ot the
Methodist Episcopal church:

.The vigorousnnd intelligent ac-
tion at Attorney Generul Stone in
New Jersey. together with the quite
evident personal interest of the
President at the United States in
the ,problem 0! law enforcement
clearly heralds the dawn of a new
day. Recreant omcialz will be 'put

down.’ Faithful men will be ele-
vated- Criminal‘rcbellion ‘will be
crushed. The prohibition 'law will

be entorced."

. For several weeks there have
been whispering: that Mr. Coolidge
had tuken.the prohibition problem
into his own hands and was watch-
ing (litorcement very closely. The
"drye" have been Jl'bllflnt. They
claim to have been hnriaioed and
obstructed at every turn hrsubordi-
nati- oillcials and that the Presl-
dont’a recognition of the situation
lsn moral victory tor the cause or
enforcement.

Mr Coolidge has had relatively
little to say about prohibition since
he took office. He is represented
hovel-er. as viewing the matter
lrom the viewpoint of law and c.-
dcr. An amendment forbidding the
manufacture and sale 0! lnloximota
is a. pert. o! the Constitution: a. law
has been paved .prmrldilli"i may
for violation and them knowing
for an honest and sincere public ot-
ilclel to do but enforce the law. .

Some of the feeling expressed by
the films” that they have not been
given co-operatlon by the govern-
ment is due to the presence in high
administration quarters of pro-
nounced "wets." The Secretary 0‘:
the Treasury. Andrew “I. Mellon is
called z. "wet," having had large in-
terests in a distillery before prohi-
bition came. He is much too busy
with the financial sldo‘ o: the gov-
ernment to give ptrnnai attention
to the work of one 0'! his bureaus——
that 0! internal revenue which in-
eludes the prohibition un'it—nnd
while no one has ever proved that
he interfered with prohibition on-
torcemcnt.‘ the "drya" haw nc- ver-
becn satisfied and there is pending
in Congress's bill to recorgnnize the
prohibition unit by removing it
trom'the authority of the commie.
sinner of internal revenue.

The "drys" have been besieging
every .President since the' Eigh-
teenth amendment was adopted.

President .Wilson was not in syrups.-
thy With the Volstoed Act. in tact
he vetoed it on a technicalily but
plainly didn't like the measure any-
how. . Mr. Harding never served ll-
quor no the .Whlte House table but

that his not in carrying’ any liquor

obtained a permit. Alter that Mr.
Harding mtruined‘ and toward the
end 0: his career become a teete-
tzler and mule at Denver a plea tor
law spiel-cement which entirely oct-
lined the "drya"

There on various insecure: pend-
ing in Congress relating to law on-
torcement. Most ol.’ them look to-
ward the strengthening rather
