GOV. RITCHIE STATES VIEWS <CnNTIMI'IOn PHOM P*«iK ghat. 1 dissent. however, from Mr. JVickersham’e suggestion the mates must take over enforcement of the Volstead act within their borders “I have already pointed out that this is neither their constitutional BOr their moral duty. I now add that th my opinion it would not tend to remedy the crime situation which Mr Wlckersham’s comnA’sslon was Appointed to study * “Aside from the class of crimes Siich as bootlegging hijacking, which federal prohibition under the Volstead act has created, and aside from crimes for which they are re* Sponsible and for offences under the Volstead act, 1 doubt very much Whether there Is any crime wave." Dry Leaders Oppose Idea Indianapolis. July 18. —(U.R> Al" though law officers here failed to enthuse at George W. Wickershams prohibition enforcement plan, drv leaders were opposed to the idea. James J. Browning, deputy prohibition administrator in Indiana, showed little interest, declaring. "I do not have time to read the papers and Consequently know little of the plan. “ Police Chief Claude M. Worley, was of the opinion that state enforcement officers would not aid much in enforcing prohibition. * The Rev. H. C. Winders, chairman trf the Indiana Anti-Saloon LeagU-J, advanced an opinion that dry league workers were opposed to the plan. ■ "The state should join the national government in all phases of prohibition enforcement," Rev. Minders njlld. ■ Frank Wright, author of Indiana s bone dry* !)‘w, sai( ' onl> ’ would result in letting the wet state become wetter and making the dry states drier." „ ——o X*********** 55 * NEWS FROM MAGLEY * }•**¥¥¥***** * ® Mr. and Mrs. J.
